BIZ; In YORK and BLOOD-SUPPLY.
Bat, even il it is true that the larger
and healthier physique affords more
blood Tor brain use, says Nina Movais
IN tie Pop~t0r Science Afont1tIy. it does
not loiiow that the larger the supply
the greater the amount of brain-work
possible. The argument assumes that
the brain has no limit to It's activity ex-
cept II the quantity of blood that can
be prepared for it. But it needs no
scientific education to know that there
are other influences which limit the
thinkers activity, and that these limita-
tons are somewhere in the mysterious
recesses OF the brain, or in the forces of
which the brain is the organ. The
physical health of the brain worker may
be perfect, his digestion unimpaired,
his power to assimlate food the same.
and yet he may not be able to concen-
trate his thoughts or carry on compli-
Gated train of reasoning.
The defect is not in his body-that is
as healthy as ever nor is it in any part
OF tie processes of blooi-making-these
50 on as before. The trouble lies in
the brain itself, whose capacity for work
Is measure by some hidden standard of
Its own, and which gives warning when

Relics of Antiquity.

Will S. Lively has on exhibition at
his photograph gallery, two ILLNESSES
made about seventy-fve years ago.
one is a picture of Grandma Mitchell,
and the other picture of her brother.
They look as fresh and we'll preserved
as if made yesterday, and show that
artistic skill was not wanting in those
days. There is also another Silhouette
picture of an aunt of Grandma Mitch
ell made several years before the pencil

the way of picture. 1t is simply an
outline or profile of the face, cut from
paper, with background of black
silk. Any one can see these curiosities
by calling at the gallery.

IL it il, let him call il aud leave the respou-

lature itself will no. be governed BY proper
sense OF what il due TO the State, OF will
willingly and uselesslyspu the State to
great expense by prolonging the session I'M
less there ia some good reason for It. Neither
is it a good reason for not calling it because
the people of the Delta are not fully agreed

high time that this whole subject should
be treated a. mater of State
policy and cease 10 be considered
as a mere local one Failing in this l favor
a general lsvee system for the whole Delta,
but if neither can be attained without I'M
necessary wIangling, then any system thai
will enable Tunica, Deseto and Coahoma to
repair their breaks aud protect themselves.
The session, in my opinion, would not lsst
a week, and would not cost over SlO,OOO or
$4,000. Two counties Of the Delta alone pay
more State tax than this, though they are
counties now happily protected. But this Il
not the question. Let The session be long or
short, lei the cost be great or small the Gov
ernor will not be responsible. Each member
will be responsible to his constituents, and
esdeavor to prolong the session without good
cause i have no personal interest in the
matter What little l own, and it lie all in
the Delta, is now protected. But speak in
the interest of those who have suffered ihis
year because a session WIS not called
last year, and who look forward
with dread TO another overflow next
spring, unless they can go to work now TO
protect themselvss, and without session Of
the legislature hey can't do IT, The labor
will leave those parts of the Delta which are
unprotected, indeed, is now leSying, and
many men will, perhaps, become bankrupt.
