TO DO THIS THE INDIVIDUAL MUST POSSESS BRAIN OF SUPERIOR ORGANIZATION. it st it ' Not only must it be large enongh ; its element must consist of the BEST MATERIAL, and the plan of construction must be one of the most elaborate and efficient kind possible. A Swiss watch of fine construction is MORE RELIABLE timepiece than a cheap and hastily manufactured alarm clock. In like manner the expert anatomist discerns the differences between the sim ply constructed brains of lower forms and the complex thought appa ratus of man, and even within onr own species demonstrable differ ences in the elaboration of cerebral architecture have been d3tennin?d.

The range of brain weight within the human species is a very wide one, from a TourgenefTs brain weighing 2,012 grams or a Cuvier's weighing 1.830 grams to that of a Zulu weighing only 1,050 grams. There is a distinct gap between the lowest brain weight of a nor mal human being and the highest figure recorded for an anthropoid, 425 grams in a gorilla.

Reach lug America from tin old world, they settled In IVniiaylvnnla. later einlKtnt ed to western Virginia and, having worked out their hind there, moved on down the Ohio river lo appropriate the virgin soil of Kentucky. Among thee movers waa a family named Martin, the father and mother Mux elderly persona, their elder chil dren grown. A dnughler. Hester, was a girl of eighteen. They set I Wit not far from where Uowllug tirevn I now altuatcd. The war of 1S12 was being fought, and noon after tlie arrival of the Mar tins In their new home the kittle of .Vow Orleans was fought and won by the Americana, or. rather, the woods men of the west, among whom the hunters of Kentucky were conspicu ous. The war had been ended by treaty before the battle, though the newa' of peace had not yet got across the Atlantic, and ho.hi after It was over the troop came marching home. A company of Kentwklnns recruited from the retlon about where the Mar Una lived was disbanded, and a young man. Abner Armstrong. Vho had marched away ami returned as a lieu tenant, was among the numlier At the time of his appearance John Part let. a man of forty years of age. had asked Martin for his daughter Hester's hand. There were many mouths to feed In Martina family, and llartlet was the only suitor who hud establish ed himself In tlie new country: there fore Martin persuaded Hester to marry him. Rut before the wedding had taken place along came the soldiers whose rifles had won the battle of New Or leans. Young Armstrong waa a strap ping. Saxen haired, blue eyed boy with every aperance of iiuiulluesa. but withal an engaging smile Hester look ed at Mm and surrendered. There Is but little reason In youth. Instead of ronfeslng to her father and her betrothed that she bad not known what love was and that, having dis covered It In the young soldier, she had changed. Hester resolved on the most desperate course to be conceived of. She told Armstrong, who was as rieenlv smitten with her as she was with him. that she could never face either her father or her betrothed to tell them of the change !n her and the only coucse left for them was to run away. It was not likely that one who had but recently helped to win a battle sbonld show the white feather. The only means of conveyance In ihnu dT In Kentucky was a horse. Armstrong had but one animal, but It served for both. They started on an afternoon, and their flight was discov ered abont 9. o'clock the same night Bartlet was notified, and when he learned how be had been treated be said: "IH go after "em and bring 'em back. Then I II tell "em they kin git married for all me as soon as they like." With this he mounted his horse, his rifle slung to his saddle and pistols In his holster, for no one went about nn armed In tho-e wild days. and. assum ing thai the fugitives would make for the Ohio river, he rude straight north ward About midnight he snw a lurid light on the cloud to the northeast ward, and. t'llnfclnt: the fugitives had bivouacked and built n tire, he turned his horses head In th.il direction. Suddenly be reiMsl In In a stand and listened A di-tjini -i.i. fused barking fell upon h!s pt He shuddered A picture cni;.e I f re his mind's eve painted by the h-'.d f experlem-e. A Kenrucklan. he knew ihnt the barks he heard were th.e of wolves and that one of the wsys of figlitlug wolves was by fire He saw the girl he had hoped to make his wife and the man she had eloped with besieged by hun gry beasts. Urging forward hla horse, guided by the light the barks growing more dis tinct as be approached, he Anally burst In upon the very scene he bad pictured. Armstrong and Hester oc cupied the center of a circle of fire they had built to keep off the pack. Armstrong's ammunition hsd been ei pended. and whenever a wolf snarled too closa be beat It back with the bar rel of his rifle or with a burning brand. Hester, like a true daughter of tbe forest, was bravely arranging tbe wood they bad gathered to keep It burning. Having ridden as far as bis terrified horse would go. Bartlet dismounted and. aiming at a wolf, shot him dead. Then, while the pack were devouring tbelr companion, tbe rifle was reload ed and another wolf was brought down. Drawing nearer to tbe besieged couple. Bartlet called upon them to run toward him while be covered their re treat Tbey started. Hester In ad vance. The wolves sprang after them.

She had some wood en dishes, some tnper and a box of matches. Kthel knew all the young men In ber nelghtNirhood. and It seemed probable that If she marrlisl she would be chosen by one of them, for no one else ever came to that region. She did not expect to look Into a mirror and see reflected there over her shoulder the face of a rlranger She only hoped to know which of three young men of ber acquaintance would ask her to marry liliu. She had uo reason to sup pose that any of them would ask her. but In case any one did she wished to know which It was to l A new uiooti stood III the west which sho took pains to sn-lt being the tlrst time over ber right shoulder lu her time these Utile superstitious counted for more than they do In this realistic ago, and she felt quite sure that If she saw the moon over her left shoul der she wouldn't have any luck during the month. Having sccu It aright, she passed on over a Held, then through n wood and stood on the mnrglu of the river. Now, It happened that Philip llrnoks. a stndeut In a college situated aens the state line and distant an hour's Journey ou a tralu. had hceu caught a few weeks Is-Core basing fresliiiivn aud was rusticating at a little town on the river a few miles above where Farmer Auchlncloss lived The sopho more bad been studying on this very afternoon snd shortly before Ethel had emerged from her home had pulled down tlie stream In his wherry for exercise and recreatlou lu tbe gloaming. Tbe first thing Paul knew he saw lighted tiier passing him. Sur prised, be ceased rowing and eyed it wondering what It meant. He turned bis (ace upstream and saw another lighted taper a doxen yards ahead and another atlll farther up the river. Then It middeuly occurred to him that It must be Halloween and some girl wa trying to Bud out which of three young men she would marry. Giving a few back strokes, he dropped down beside the taMr that had floated farthest and blew It out. then, not desiring a rival for the un known maid's favor, picked up tbe second and the third taper and blew them out at a breath Then ho pulled ! eautloualy on upstream with muffled l rowlock. I Ethel, standing ou the brink, saw tbe ! first taper go out and remarked to j herself. "It Isn't Fred." When she j saw the two remaining tapers go out ! at once she exclaimed: "It Isn't any of them. I'm to be an old maid." i When about to return to ber home she glanced np to tbe ky and saw the new moon Just pnaslng out of I light In tbe west She appeeled to It In the following words that have been ' famlllnr to lads and Isssles for many years: "Nw moon. lru moon. ll unto mo Who my tru lovsr -shall bo; The color of his syos. the color of his hulr. The color of Ilia coal that ho shsll wsar The amy l illumes mo" ' Not dreaming that any one waa near to bear her. she ssike the words In tone lorn! enough lo tie readily beard in the surrounding sUllness.

The boat grated on the 'hhles at her feet, and the man stepped on shore and said Im pressively: : "My future bride. I greet you." ' It was not so dark, the two being close together, hut what they could ; distinguish each other. There Is no i greater aid to the imagination than a ' gloaming, and eucb pictured the other j Inordinately beautiful.
