1891.] The Coming Man. 625 
11. The cultivation of self-control, in the recognition that man 
is his own worst enemy. 
12. Other desirabilities may be subclassed under the preceding. 
In a general way, and when aberrant types are excluded, the 
increase of the facial angle of Camper in the evolutionary scale 
has a value as an index to what nature does to increase intelligence. 
It is a very superficial physiognomical means of estimation, 
however, if associated matters are not properly considered at the 
same time, for the skull-growth may not keep pace always with 
brain-growth, in individuals or races, and complexity of convolu- 
tions may result to fold into smaller space the same amount of 
brain surface that may also be found with fewer convolutions in a 
larger, or more roomy, skull. 
It is the multiplicity and complexity of the nerve-strands in 
the brain that causes intelligence, and these are developed by 
proper exercise and education of the senses in relation to the 
finer muscular movements. The learning of something to do 
that will benefit the world as well as self, and deep-thinking 
thereon, and endeavoring to understand the universe, as far as 
possible, is best calculated to develop the brain most symmetri- 
cally, repress the evil and bring out all the good of which the 
highest type of man is capable, for goodness is but a high order 
of intelligence, notwithstanding its occasional absence in intellects 
otherwise highly developed, and its frequent presence among 
those whose minds are defective in other directions.
