Bill Nye on Phrenology.
An erroneous phrenologist once told me that I would shine as a revivalist, and Baid that I ought to marry a tall blonde with a nervous, sanguinary temperament. Then he said, "One dollar, please," and I said, "All right, gentle scientest with a tawney mane, I will give you the dollar and marry the tall blonde with a bank account and bilious temperament when you gire me a chart showing me how to dispose of a brown-eyed brunette with a thoughtful cast of countenance, who married me in an unguarded moment two years ago." He looked at me in a reproachful kind of way, struck at me with a chair in an absentminded manner, and stole away.-—" Chicago Eye." „
