Wrinkles lying horizontally across the root of the nose denote ability to command.
Several perpendicular wrinkles between the eyebrows denote a plodding, persevering disposition.
DIMPLES.—A round dimple in the chin denotes love of the beautiful in the opposite sex.
Dimples at the outer corners of the mouth are another sign of mirthfulness.
Dimples in the center of cheeks are another sign of approbation.
When a little cleft is seen at the tip of the nose it denotes the natural critic.
Close attention should always be given to texture and quality of the hair, eyes, and skin; this is most important, as the coarseness or refinement of character is shown very plainly to those who take the trouble to notice these things.
Color of hair, eyes, and skin is also very important; the depth of the feelings and passions is shown here; poorly colored people are much less passionate than their deeper colored fellow-creatures.
Thus from dark individuals of coarse quality we expect coarse passions, and from dark fine-quality individuals deep, refined emotions.
