Thoro are fourteen bones in ihe noie. Burns had tho uunniue Celtic typo of noao. A blunt no*io is generally indicative of dulnesa. Tho nose of the mole Is movable like that of the hog. Tho Grouk noso was straight and toler ably prominent. Pimples on the noso are frequently caused by ludi^estioi The nose of Beethoven was hir^e, thick and ill-shaped In extreme old ago tho Hense of umell Is often entirely loit. The Duko of WelliiiKton wni called "Nohpy" by his soldicro. Small nostrils are said by physiologists to indieato small and weak luii^-.. In all ii^eH tlio nosa has been rogardod aa htiongly indicative of character Tlio Turkish nose bears a tolerably dona resemblance to tne Semitic typ** A rioso of proper proportions should bo ono'third the length tit the face. l*'ish aro undoubtedly provided wltb a reasonably acute sense of smell. Goethe had a largo Koman nose, rather uioiu bent than uauai iu that type. The blind aro'often almost pretornatur- ally gifted with tho sonso of smell, Tlie honsuof smell Isprobablj more acute in thodoij than in any other animal. A sharp noso pointiug forward is ths characteri.stlcpf impudence and curlositi. The Duko of Wellington was blesnod with a Koman noso of generous propor tions. The first Duko of Marlborough had a huge Roman noso, tho noso of a military conqueror. In man the sense of small la leas devel oped than that of Bight, aalt ia much less needed. Caesar had a large Roman noao. It was In fact, out of proportion with the rest of his faco. A. large noso In a weak faco is Indicative of unintulligcucQ and utupldlty. IdiotB have such uosqh Queen Anno had a large rod noso, from drinking. Slio was call "Brandy Nan" by hor subjects. In tlio lower races of mankind tho son ho of smell ia more acutely developed than in tho Caucasian. * The IroK has tho Hhortost passage be tween IiIh nose and bin mouth ; tho croco- dilo has tho longOHt. Pugilists nay that a blow on the noso is attonded with more pain thuu ono on auy other part of the body. Mont insects aro provided with a oonne of binell, though by what moans It is exer cised in in many casoa unknown. A red nose may bo duo to a choleric tem per, a bud liver, or bad liquor.

All birds which find their food In the earth or dust aro provided with very thick coverings of feathers over their nostrilo. A portrait bust of Hannibal, whioh has oomu down to us from Roman times, rep resents him with a strong Roman none. Tim French and Spanish Bourbonn wore all endowed with laro, thick nosos.
