Heavy Brains.

According to the notion that the size Of
the brain bears general relation to the in
tellectual capacity of the individual, Crom-
well and Byron might be regarded as hav-
ing possessed the greatest minds known
since the practice of testing the mind by the
weight of the brain came into vogue. But.
unfortunately, the reported weight Of their
brains (S2 and 70 ounces respectively is not
accepted as correct by Psychologists, and 50
until now the famous naturalist Cuvier, DIR.
Abercrombie and DR.. Dupuytren have been
regarded as having possessed the largest
brains on record, their weight being 64, So
and 624 ounces respectively. But now they
must yield the palm to the Russian novel
writer, Ivan Turgenef At the post mortem
examination made in Paris by four we'll
known French urgeons-Boirdelle, Descou.
Paul SECOND and Manien-it Aas found that
Turgenef's brain weighed III ounces. The
surgeons say it was in healthy condition.
Turgenef's brain outweighed the brain of
the ordinary man by % ounces. In the list
of the heavy brains, James Fisk, Jr., leads
the American, being credited with So ounces
of brain; next comes Daniel Webster, whose
brain, however, weighed only 53t ounces.
According to his cranial capacity, Webster
ought to have had 634 ounces of brain.

Mythology Of the Turnip.

The turnip, equally with the radish, has
funeresl Specification in mythology. 1t was
over turnip that, in some versions OF the
fable, the wolf and the fox fell out. In the
Nursery Tales of the Brothers Grimm
turnip grows on the site OF fratricide. In ls-
gend the turnip readily spassss into human
form. 1t has been before remarked that GER
tain popular sayings. now accepted in q mega
tive or irenical sense were once simple asser-
lions, or more coErsctl1 enigmas. Thus the
italian proverb, Trar sapgue da una rapa Ito
get blood out of a turnip). In popular story
blood is shed for turnip, and in the same
story the turnip revives, grows and turns into
a man. Mythologically taken, the meaning Is
clear; but otherwise IL would be hard to divine
why popular phraseology should have chosen q
turnip, which contains a certain amount of
moisture, as the figure of aridity, whence
nought can be wrung. Having lost its original
meaning, the proverb has taken another, which
strikes at once by its oddity and inappropriats-
ness. A German legend, evidently Of solar
origin, relates how the Demon of the Night,
taking advantage OF the absence of her lord
the Sun; paid court to a certain beautiful prin-
cess The princess desired companions. The
demon pulled lot of turDips, and by q stroke
of magic wand converted them every one in
to young maiiens, who retained their youth 90
long only as the turnips remained fresh. Then
the demon brought fresh supply. But the
princess, with the aid Of magic wand, turned
one into a bse, which was despatched to tell
her lord that she was held in durance by the
genius but the bee never came back. She
touched 9 second, which turned into a cricket
and departed on the same errand; but the
cricket never came back. She touched third,
and it turned into stork. The stork started
on the like behest, and brought back the long
lost husband. Then the princess set the demon
to count the turnips-is not the Mountain
Demon called Rubezshler, or the "Tnrnip
Reckoner," to this day?-and whilst he was 20
busted with the touch of her wand she con-
verted yet another turnip into horse, on
which husband and wife took tiight.-Count

Invention for Metal cutting.

Madame de Longs invention of machinery
has for some time past, been familiar to the
French, is now to be established In England.
By it articles as small as brooch, or as large
as a pair of heavS parK gates, can be pro duced,
and that by the mere process Of cutting, with
out any Of the usual moulding and filing oper-
ations in vogue. -Four great branches Of her
art are now successfully worked. The first,
which replaces the casting Of designs In
moulds, is applied to the production of gates.
doors, panels, ireguards, banisters, balconies,
and architectural purposes generally. The de-
sign in the Louis XIII, Louis XVI, or more
modern character Is simply drawn upon paper
firmly pasted on to the metal and the whole
passed under band saws or ribbon saws worked
by machinery as the hand guides the plate Of
metal. Two or three dozen articles OF moder-
ate thickness can thus be turned out at one
cutting, and a further advantage results from
the method, since those who can afford to pay
for a special design, and wish to have some
thing unique, can have their own design car
ried out without the expense OF casting. An
other branch Of the new industry, which is
destined to supersede the ordinary leaden
framework for colored windows, is the lattice
worked metal filed in with glass, the advan-
tages secured being lightness, delicacy OF ap-
pearance, and ease in replacing any broken
portions. The metal is joined by small screws,
which in the event Of an accident to the glass
can be removed and the new glass easily let
in. Som beautiful plush and ebony jewel cas-
es, inlaid with rep and yellow copper, steel,
silver, &C.. belong to the third group Of the
art, the incrustation process and its results
showing great durability and excellence. Last
ly, beyond these more solid works, is the sec
tion comprising "articles de Paris" letter
trays, card baskets, photograph frames, and
50nbOnniereS mounted in satin.
