The True Answer to the Question A Series of Co-Onlinated 3Iovemeiits. How, then, does the mechanism of the brain really act? I believe the true answer to this question is the one most fully given by M. Ribot and never yet completely accepted by English psychol ogists. It acts, for the most part, as a whole; or, at least, even the simplest loea or mental act of any sort is a complex of processes involving the most enormously varied brain elements. Instead of dog being located somewhere in one par ticular cell of the brain, dog is an idea, audible, visible, legible, pronounceable, requiring for different modes of his per ception or production the co-operation of an enormous number of separate cells, fibers and ganglia. . Let us take an illustration from a kin dred case. How clumsy and awkward a supposition it would be if we were to imagine there was a muscle of dancing, and a muscle of walking, and a muscle of rowing, and a muscle of cricketing, and a muscle for the special practice of the noble art of lawn-tennis! Dancmg is not a single act; it is a complex series of co-ordinated movements, implying for its proper performance the action of al most all the muscles of the body in dif ferent proportions, and in relatively fixed amounts and manners. t,ven a waltz is complicated enough; but when to a quadrille or a set of lancers, every body can see at once that the hgure con sists of so many steps forward and so many back; of a bow here, and a twirl there: of hands now extended both to gether, and now held out one at a time to. rapid succession, . ana so .jortn throughout ail r the long 7 complicated series. A quadrille in short, is not a name for one act, for a single move ment of a single muscle, but for many acts of the whole organism, all arranged in a fixed sequence. Popular Science Monthly. Beware of the Hoo-Dooed Store-Kooms. "There is one of the unlucky places of this town," said a renting agent, as he rode along Madison street in a horse car. "I wouldn't want to guarantee to give 5 cents for aU the money that will ever be made in that store-room. Within the last year four or five men have tried their hands at running a restaurant there and have failed, The room is now vacant again. X never knew a man to succeed there. At least a score of tenants have been in there since the building was put up, and not one of them has made a dol lar. Even a saloon failed. On either side of it business of all kinds is prosper ous, but nothing goes there "That isn't the only place of the kind I know of in Chicago. There are store rooms in which I would not start a busi ness if I could get rent free and a subsidy to boot. They are unlucky spots, and a man had better keep out of them. Am I superstitious? Not at all. It isn't that. The unfortunate result of all enterprises started in these places is due to a trait of human nature to a business law that trade naturally avoids locations where sheriffs notices and to rent cards are fre quently displayed. It isn't superstition, but business. The owner of any one of these fated stores could, have well af forded to give rent free and paid out money besides if he could thereby have averted the reputation which his house how has. My advice to any man starting a new business would be to pay some at tention to the reputation for luck which the store-room he intends taking has got, just as the prudent man does to the rep utation of the partner with whom he joins fortunes. Chicago Herald, How Mind Caralaezi liberated Rome. Tlie event of my life was the part I un dertook in the liberation of Rome. One flay while in Rome a young officer be longing to Garibaldi's staff called upon me and asked mv aid in inciting an in surrection for the purpose of delivering the city over to his general. Tlie plans were made, and the next night the place of the harlequin in the ballet was filled by the young officer, who wore a rich green costume. Jly bodice and skirt was of bright red. At the conclusion of an effective dance I fell back upon my partner in the regular ballet fashion, my red dress and white skirts resting against the green costume of the harle quin, thus showing the national colors which were then prohibited on the stage. The effect was electrical; and as the cur tain fell the spectators rushed into the street in the wildest excitement. In short time the city was aroused and Gari baldi entered it in triumph. St. Louis Ulobe-Democrat. A Tronpe of Italian Singers. .7 A troupe of Italian opera singers are about as great an inconsistency as a flock of untrained animals. The reporters for the press constantly aver that I have financial reason for changing an opera at the last moment. If it were only known what a dealer in macaroni-eating singers has to contend with, all this talk would be 6topped. Upon - the slightest pretense prime donne will refuse to ap pear, and in figuring what we shau do we have to select an opera that will not have in its cast one of the soloists who has sung the night before. Most of our best singers refuse to appear twice in suc cession, and we are compelled to do the best we can, Col, ilaplesoo, THE HORNET'S NEST AT SHILOH. Carrying the Con federate Color Forward Miraculously Preserved. ' I witnessed the various bloody and un uccessf ul attacks on the "hornet's nest." Curing one of the dreadful repulses of our forces, Gen. Bragg directed me to ride forward to the central regiment of a brigade of troops that was recoiling across an open field to take its colors and carry them forward. "The flag must not go back again,' he said. Obeying the order I dashed through the line of battle, seized the colors from the color-bearer, and said to him: "Gen. Bragg says these colors must not go to the rear." While talking to him the color-sergeant was shot down. A moment or two afterward I was almost alone on horseback in tlie open field between the two lines of battle. An officer came up to me with a bullet- hole in each cheekr the blood streaming from his mouth, and asked; "What are you doing with my colors, sir?" "I am obeying Gen, Bragg's orders, Bir, to hold them where they are," was my reply. "Let me have them," he said. "If any man but my coior-bearer carries tnese colors, I am the man. Tell Gen. Bragg I will see that these colors are in th$ right place. But he must attack this position in flank; we can never carry it alone from the front." It was Col. Allen, afterward Governor Allen, of 1 Louisiana. I returned, miraculously preserved, to Gen, Bragg, and reported " Col. Alien s words. I then earned an order to the same troops, giving the order I think to Gen. Gibson, to fall back to the fence in the rear and reorganise. This was done, and then Gen. Bragg dis patched me to the right, and Col. Frank Gardner (afterward major general) to the . left, to inform the brigade and division commanders on either side that a com bined movement would be made on the front and flank of that position. The movements were made and Prentiss was captured. Col. Lockett in T j Century. Watching the Chicks Shell Oat. I was rather surprised last night when I drifted into the fanciers' show to see four indubitable swells sitting in four large wooden chairs in front of an arti ficial incubator, and staring at a lot of eggs with the most absorbed and inter ested faces imaginable. They all wore fur coat3, leaned on their sticks heavily, and two of them held their watches in their hands. There were dozens of eggs under tlie glass case, and every few minutes one of the shells would open, and a small and puny chick was born into the world. When the event oc curred, the four men would look at each other with eyes that were invariably wide open, and comment upon the size, ap pearance, and activity of the recent ar rival with the solemnity of supreme court judges. Occasionally the two who held their watches in their hands would make bets of some maghitu ' on the interval of time which would apse be tween one birth and another. ; Oncev. 1 whin foul or five of the UveUet--Jgickg "f ' j -' ''. . C7l . ..puuncea upon a weary -loosing specimen who seemed to object: to being born, the very moment the shell was tiroken the interest of the four men was almost painful. The exhibition was really" very much of a novelty to them, and I am told that they had hired the chairs from an usher three nights before, and had at tended the show regularly from that time on. Blakely Ha ll in The Argonaut. The Outcome of Assiduous Care. When the late Charles Matthews was playing in Melbourne fifteen years ago he received what he considered the high est compliment of his professional ca reer. A little girl in the audience was asked by her friends at the conclusion of performance how she was pleased, to which she replied: "I didn't care for Mr. Matthews acting a bit; he just walked up and down the stage as papa walks up and down she dining-room at home." It is the fact of this appearance perfect spontaneity in the highest art, being really the outcome of fhe most assiduous care, that renders it 60 truly inimitable and the counterfeit so easy of detection.
