'These two are the brain and the heart Per sons who think often wonder why brain-workers great statesmen and others should continue to work with, almost unimpaired activity and energy up to a period when most of the organ and functions of the body are in a con- dition of advanced decay. The normal brain remains- vigorous to the last because ita nutrition ia es pecially provided for. About middle life, or a little later, the general arteries of the body begin to lose tbeir elasticity, and to weaken slowly but surely. They become, therefore, much lesa. efficient carriers of the nutrient blood of the capillary areas. But this is not tho case with the internal carotids, which supply the capillary areas of the brain. On the contrary, these large ves- -' scls continue to retain their elasticity. -so that the blood : pressure remains, higher than within the capillary area, of any other organ of the body. Thee blood paths of the brain being thus kept open, the brain tissue Is better nourished titan the other tissues of the body.' ' n i.Vifaw;,' :' ; ' Big Success.
