That is, they suppose they shoot at it. They shoot, but, unfortunately, they do not shoot any more definitely at it than if they stepped out of their homes upon a dark night when the moon was down, electric lights out, and shot into space

HOW REFORMERS MISS THE CENTER
OF VICE.

in hope of hitting a burglar. Why don't they draw a bead on it? Answer: They do not know the location of it. They do not know the nature of it. They do not know the source of it. They do not know that it is a single element of the

mind. They do not know when nor where to commence to correct it. They ought to know. They can know. They can know exactly. They can know very soon after the babe is born. They can, if they will, learn the location of the faculty in the brain. Observe the illustration. Not one of the marksmen has hit the 'bull's eye.' Every shot has missed. What a deplorable waste of time, energy and arrows! They have hit the intellect, which is in front, the moral faculties, which are in the tophead, pride and vanity, which are in the back crown of the head, but not a single one has even come close to the exact source of the evil. They have not even crippled it. How could they cripple it till they hit it? How can they hit it till they know where it is? It is located in the little brain directly back of the two bony prominences that may be found and felt behind the ears. When very strong in child, woman or man, this region will be decidedly full or convex in form. It is immediately below a fissure that runs horizontally above it, and partly separates the little brain from the big brain, or, in other words, the cerebellum from the cerebrum. Its name is Amativeness. We now have it 'spotted!'"

Does it not occur to you, dear reader, that the brute for brute method so long resorted to, when taken from this sound scientific viewpoint, is but

the aftermath of a savage nature, the eye for eye and tooth for tooth system of injustice, practiced in the past ages of barbarism?

Can you justly criticise us for the strong condemnation of such inhuman outrages as are perpetrated in this country upon such unfortunate, irresponsible beings? How much more rational would it be, do you not admit, to inaugurate the scientific system we expound in this book, and hit the "bull's eye," and render unnecessary all mob violence and their debasing, demoralizing effect upon our civilization?

OFFSPRING OF RIGHT CROSSING.Now, let us resume the actual occurrence with regard to J. Roland, Ph. D., and Rosaline, his mate. Roland had a fair knowledge of scientific adaptation and the assimilation by amalgamation of the American Hamite, and also realized that, for his own personal benefit, it was a wise step to affiliate with a dark complexioned, strong, robust maiden; and he found in Rosaline his affinity. What was the result with regard to their offspring? In Master Roland we have a fine likeness of their oldest son, and the youngest are still better. Notice the large mental capacity of this child, and the ample physique to sustain it a fine large brain, on a fine large body to support it. His physiognomy is mort like that of his mother than his father, and, in

deed, we find that this is nearly always the case in such crossings; yet we can clearly discern the broad, high forehead of his father in this lad, as well as his chin; while the mouth and nose are more like his mother's. If you will notice the

[graphic][subsumed]

receding forehead of the mother, and compare it with the high, broad one of the son; and could then also compare the body of the poor father with that of the child, you could not help but marvel at the wonderful improvement Nature has here wrought in this fortunate boy. Fortu

nate? Alas, he is only a "little nigger" in the eyes of America today. His ability is unrecognized.

In little Iraline we have drawn a good likeness of their daughter. What a ravishing beauty,

[graphic][subsumed][subsumed]

what a magnificent specimen of human anatomy! Such a physiognomy as artists should rave over. Just enough of the Negro tinge to make her so cute and lovable-and, indeed, she is lovable. She has a fine feminine head and figure to make her so. Some day she will make an ideal wife
