THE opinion has for some time been gain
ing ground among keen observers, that brains
are not absolutely necessary. There have
been numerous instances in which men with
out brains have. succeeded in life, ard have
even reached high positions. This opinion
has of late received support from an eminent
authority. DR.. Hammond, in his address be-
fore the Neurological Society, shows that the
brain is not the sole organ of the mind, and
that perception and volition are seated in the
spinal cord as well as in the central ganglia.
He does not assert that we can do just as wen
without brains, but seems to think that
'back bone" is quite as necessary. Observa-
ton confirms this view. Men with sufficient
rigidity Of backbone achieve as great sue
cesses as those with great weight of brain.
DIR. Hammond related an experiment on
frog, in which the brain was removed and
still the frog lived. He seemed to doubt if
the experiment would succeed with human
beings. But little research would have con-
vinced him that men are living whose brains
must have been ''scooped' at a very early

THE Scilly Islands, on a ledge of which the
ll-fated steamer Schiller was wrecked, are
about thirty miles southwest of Lands End.
The group consists of 140 islands in all. Only
few of the larger ones are inhabited. The
population is about 5000. These islands,
which are generally considered to be the Cas-
siterides or Tin Islands OF the Romans, have
ever been considered dangerous to naviga-
lights and fog bells. In 1907 nine English
ships of the line, under command of Sir
Cloudesley Shovel, were wrecked there, and
1000 lives lost. In later years the loss of the
Thames and the Duro has made the group a
name of dread,
