SERVISS. The brain is our instrument of | knowledge, but ic tells us nothing about itself. Theve is no branch of human physiology so little developed as that which pertains to the brain. At Cornell university Prof. Wilder I | has a laboratory, or museum, of brains. Many men have bequeathed | their brains to him, and his collec- tion is of thrilling interest. Wilder will tell you that true phren- ology has not yet been invenited. Brains have been dissected, and meas- ured, and weighed, and subjected to minute microscopical examination— but their real secret yet escapes the searcher, Wherei resides the power of the brain? In the “gray matter” some will tell you. But, then, what is the gray matter? how do its cells act? where, does intelligence lurk in them? and how does it express itself? Are size and weight the sources of relative brain power? A big locomo- tive is more powerful than a little one, but, notwithstanding the popular belief, this is probably not true of brains—at least, size gives no certain measure of power. Daniel Webster had an immense brain, and he wore a 75-inch hat, alf an inch larger than the average. dut Henry Clay, his great rival, wore (& O%g-inch hat, half an inch smaller | than the average. Cuvier, the natur- alist, had one of the biggest and heaviest brains on record. Emerson, the philosopher, had a surprisingly small brain, no larger than Henry Clay's, as indicated by the size of his head. Evidently, it is the organ- ization of the’ brain rather than its cubic content which counts for intel- lectual power. Still, other things being equal, size of brain must be of great importance. Below a certain minimum size, idiocy | always accompanies a very small| brain. But Prof. Wilder says that| if one undertakes to judge of the size of the brain by the size of the head, he is likely to be misled by mere thickness of skull. A large, heavy skull often encloses | a relatively small brain, That was e Do You Know That g Mexico has 15,000 miles of railway. | China yearly imports 200,000,000 allons of kerosene.

He had a prodigi- | ous head, but when his brain was ex- amined after death it was found to be rather below the average in size and weight. Is there any other indication, then, | by which the size of a man’s brain can be judged during his lite? Recently it has been suggested that the eye offers such a test. Large eyes, it is said, usually indicate large brains behind them. The experiments upon which this conclusion rests have | been made upon fish, and consequent- ly they cannot have the convincing force that they would possess if the subjects had been human beings. Nev- ertheless, the suggestion possesses a certain interest, because it is a mat- ter of common observation that peo- ple with large eyes are apt to mani- fest high intelligence, and particular- ly what is called spirituality. They seem to be less materialistic, more imaginative and more poetical and ar- tistic in temperament than the major- ity of the human race. Anyhow, the eye is certainly the window of the soul, and its color, jts expressiveness, and perhaps its size, may offer valuable clues to the meas- ure and the quality of the brain that the Thru the Courtesy of Combs-Agnew Optical Co.
