The Law.-—^Lawyers require the mental-vital tempera- ment, to give them intensity of feeling and clearness of intellect; large Eventuality, to recall law cases and decisions; large Comparison, to compare different parts of the law and evidence—to criticise, cross-question, illustrate, and adduce similar cases; and large Language, to give freedom of speech. Phrenology will tell you how to acquire and use these powers and faculties to the best advantage. Try it. II. Statesmanship.—Statesmen require large and well- balanced intellects, to enable them to understand and see through great ])ublic measures and choose the best course, together with high moral heads, to make them disinterested, and seek the people's good, not sellish ends.
