"The so-called Celestial nose. Fig. 45, is one indicating weakness or lack of development, is the nose of childhood, a strong contrast to the Roman, as it is concave from the root to the tip. It generally fills out as the child is maturing, and you will often notice a so-called hump growing on the boy's nose when his voice is changing from the treble to the deeper tones ; at the same time the cerebellum enlarges rapidly, and all the sinuses of the skull about the same time, and the boy's character greatly changes. Before this he might abuse the girls; but now he brushes up, washes his face clean (if he has been slovenly before), is particular about his clothes, cleans them, like tba birds trimming their plumage when they are mating in the spring. And a somewhat similar change takes place in the girl. Spring-time is coming to them. But to return to the Celestial nose ; when it remains thus through life, that person will nearly always be defective in controlling power. It is the nose of the dinger, but does not belong to the one who is like the majestic oak."
