Trained Soldiers Are Wholly In

Uniqua Analogy From Railroad Life.

tally certain destruction without giv

Concerning the absolute Indifference
-uf the trained soldier to death In the
midst of battle and the reasons there
for. Dr. atacKcnnn employs a unique
nd graphic Illustration from the rail-
road world.
"Let us Imagine." be says, "that the
brain, the organ that links up the body
'with the sources of thought and action
Is a railway terminus Into which run
Hues from all parts of the country.
There are lines to and from the eyes,
the ears, the feet, the hands and every
muscle in the body.
"In the beat of battle trains loaded
with messages are racing on the down
line to every muscle. On a well or
dered railway system certain trains
have priority, while others are held
back until congestion Is relieved and
some of the tracks are cleared.
"A wise train dispatcher will see that
a slow freight train does not get In the
way and block the progress of a pas
senger express, and the mind acting in
This role takes care that no train laden
with fear fiuds Its way out of the
terminus to throw the other traffic Into
-confusion. There are no tracks to spare
for such a cargo, the whole railway
system is occupied with the supply of
more urgent necessities.
"By a similar observation one can est--plain
the frequently reiieated statement
that in the beat of battle a soldier may
sustain a formidable wound and feel no
lin whatever and even be unaware
tbat he has been bit
"The Injured limb or organ dispatches
an express train along the line of some
sensory nerve to the railway terminus
In the brain, but on drawing near the
terminus the signals are found to be
a pi Inst It, and It cannot force Its way
Through the press of traffic Into the
station. It Is therefore sidetracked.
"But Just as an ordinary train will
try to call the attention of the signal
man by blowing its whistle when the
signal hi against It, so a sensation of
Twin may succeed in calling the atten
tion of the brain to its existence by
sending on a message not of pain, but
of heaviness or pressure.
"This may have the effect of opening
a path for the whole train to run
through, and the wounded man hc-'ius
to discover tbat be has been bit or
hurt But in most cases a long Inter
Tal elapses between the Infliction of
the wound and the realization of the
'soldier tbat he has been wounded.
"I have been informed by a soldier
-who bad a large piece blown out of his
thigh that he was quite unaware of his
injury for several minutes. His atten
was attracted by bearing bis foot
'squelch' every time be moved It On
looking down be saw tbat his boot was
full of blood; then almost immediately
be felt a dull ache in the thigh, follow
ed very shortly by a sensation of acute
pain.
"In this case, to return to our illus
tration, the messages of pain from the
wounded thigh bad been held up by con
gestion of traffic near the terminus.
We may Imagine that the Impeded train
tried to call the attention of the Blgnsl
mnn, hut failed to do so until a tup
sage sent from the suburban station of
sight, not far from the terminus, irol
through and Informed the station mas
ter that a very inixirtant train from a
remote art of the country was being
held up. The levers were then at once
drawn, and the sensation of pain pass
ed on to the scnsorlum." St. Louis

Our First Woman's Rlnhlt Paper,
The first woman's paer,.to bo estab
lished In this country for the dellnlla
purpose of spreading abroad news of
the new woman's rights propaganda
was tho Uly, a tiny four pago weekly
sheet edited by Mrs. Amelia Itlooinor
of HeniH-a Tails, N. Y. This was begun
In 1810, Just tho year after that famous
first woman's rights convention called

other women, the radicals of those
times. Exchange.

Kor the next few days there Is an
extremely varied program offered at
the Grand Theatre. Tonight is show n
Kentucky Cinderella." This pic
ture combines tho romance of the old
south with the adventure of tho early
days in California. Saturday uftor-
noon, a program of especial interest
to mothers and children Is to be pre
sented. The little actress, Mary Mc
Alister, In "The Yellow I'mbrella,"
is especially charming and the ques
tion, "Do Children Count?" is truly
answered. Then there is shown also
the third chapter of the "Railroad
Raiders." This picture, although
serial, has the distinction of being
one of the few pictures that is a com
plete story in each chapter. There
is also a special news feature.
Saturday evening and Sunday mat
inee there will be shown the pretty
comody drama. "May Blossoms," fea
turing Pearl White. Miss White has
scored a number of triumphs in her
time as a movie star, but this picture
is said to be the most beautiful ever
shown. .All of the scenes in this play
are in tl.eir natural color, a feature
that will appeal to all who are espec
ially interested in the beautiful pic
tures.
"Within the Law." adapted from
the book of the same name, will be
shown shortly at the Grand Theatre.
Etiquette.
Originally the word etiquette meant
a ticket, laM or slip of paper attached
to a hag or object to Imll 'iito Its con
tents. It then came to be used of a
ticket given to a person taking part In
a ceremony lo tell him what be should
do: hence the modern meaning. Ex
