Tables that have been made of the intellectual capacity of girls and boys correspond extraordinarily closely to the variation of the head measureâ€" ment and the fixing of definite color in the hair and eyes.. On the whole, girls are more round headed and boys more long headed. * The size, but especially the breadth, of a girl‘s head increases very rapidly up to the age of ten, vastly more quickâ€" ly than that of a/boy's, whose increase begins to grow rapid at about ten. The girl‘s head and the color of her hair and eyes are pretty well fixed at the age of fifteen. The boy may go on changing even as late as nineteen.
