HOW DOES THE BRAIN WORK?
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

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.

..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.

Ruskin tells us in one of his treaties on
landscape painting that in some of the
greatest works of genius an effect which
is almost magical at the proper focal dis
tance is conveyed by what appears, to
the uninstructed eye and viewed close at
hand, to be a mere dash of loaded color, .
but w-hich in reality could not be added
to or diminished by the smallest par
ticle without detracting from the effect.

Appreciation of the California Redwood.
The value for manufacturing and fin
ishing purposes of the richlf grained red
wood of California 's beginning to be ap
preciated, though not, it would seem,
until after immense quantities of it have
been diverted to unnecessary uses. Until '
recently tlie rich, curley bird's-eye and
other peculiarly marked species were cut
for rough lumber and the softer, straight-
grained kinds being so much more easy
to work, less liable to shrink endwise,
and not so liable to split h nailing, were
the favorite material for buildjipg and
other purposes for which redwood was
used, to the exclusion of the wavy and.
peculiarly grained varieties included in
the first-class redwood list, -
Thus trees or logs indicating the very
features now so prized in redwood .have
been used in prodigious - quantities, sim
ply because of their size and strength;
but if is now a matter of special interest
to builders and artisans that, for richness
and peculiarity of grain, the redwood
is excelled only by the finest of costly
hard wood. The shrinking endwise is
special to this wood, but does not extend
beyond thorough seasoning. Chicago
