Farms on tha Baltic.

more beautiful farming country does
not exist than that along the southern
shore of the Baltic. No fences mark the
boundaries of the fertile farms which
stretch away over the rolling hills to the
distant horizon, all aglow with yellow
grain. At intervals clump of trees oft,
en- seen intensely dark against the ripe
grain shows where farmhouse stands
and giant windmills swing their sails on
the highest hill-tops. The highway, q
finely built chauSSee, leads straight across
the country, only curving to pass through
some village. Mountain ash, birch and
cherry trees border the road in an un.
broken rank. In the bitches and by the
roadside grow countless varieties Of wild
fowers--a perfect paradise for the bot.
anist. From the highest hill the eye
meets to the south a succession of grain
fields. To the north, beyond the soft un
dulation of the cultivated hills, the Bal.
tic shimmers in the strong sunlight, @
narrow line, sharp at the horizon. The
dimensions of the brick barns prove the
accustomed magnitude of the harvest
the luxury of the farmers houses tells
Of inherited success.-F d. Millet, IN

around 1t arranged wreath OF small

where Does consciousness Reside ?

We have outlined the structure of the
cerebro-spinal system, and have stated
what may fairly be set down as estab.
lished concerning the functions Of this
system up to the cerebral hemispheres.
With respect TO the presence of con-
seriousness in the parts already examin-
ed, II is plain that opinions radically diff
fer. Some maintain that consciousness
is not manifested apart from the action
of the cerebrum, that all nerve-activlties
below this organ are reflex, their only
distinctions being in the matter of COM
plexity. Others are equally positive that
consciousness accompanies all nerve
actions, while still others assert that Ger.
tain organs below the cerebrum-yiz.
the pons Varolii, cerebellum, optic lobes
form a censorlum commune where
consciousness In some form appears. il
is my opinion that this last conclusion
has not, as yet, been established or re.
futed. / regard il as the most rational
of the three in the present state oil
knowledge. Ii we accept 1t, we must
recognize at the same time distinction
between elementary consciousn sss and
the full consciousness of an intellectual
| operation. Many facts in every ones
experience bear out such distinction
We are often conscious without knowing
the object or occasion of consciousness
being half-roused, we feel rather thar
perceive. 1t is possible, and from the
evidence IL Is even probable, that pro
vision for this rudimentary conscious
ness is made by the nerve-masses be
tween the medulla and cerebrum.
Whatever conclusion We adopt respect
ing this matter, the significant fact re-
mains that consciousness is certain Il
appear in connection with nerve-matter
sooner or later the question of strictly
materialislic Interpretation must be
faced. After ascertaining the present
state of the case with regard to localiza
ton of functions in the cerebrum, the
induction must be drawn as to the nat
ure of the relation between nerve-mat
ter and consciousness. Grant that this
induction shall be more or less a specu,
lation, We need, think, to remember
that all reasoning is, from the nature o.
case speculative, and that the only dis
tinction between credulity and reason
ing Is this, that credulity is both beyond
the facts and contrary to the facts, while
reasoning is beyond the facts but accord
ing to the facts.-Professor w. X. Benedic

consumption in the Family"

There Is no more common observa.
ton than that consumption runs In q
family" or In side of family. Some
other features of the disease in this di.
rection have been also noted, but the
significance of them has been disputed.
DR.. Bush, in his treatise, says the dis.
ease was unknown among the American
Indians; 1t was not among their legends
and traditions until q comparatively
recent period. Now they die rs freely
as the whites. There Is an interesting
fact Of peculiar significance to be here
noted, namely, the incubation, some
years ago, by three Greek physicians,
Of man with this disease, rare OPP
portunity presenting itself to them for
the purpose. The man was doomed to
die. and they inoculated him with the
sputum from diseased lungs. Great
care was taken to eliminate all sources
of doubt. There was no history OF
family susceptibility. About the third
week after the incubation the signs OF
consumption began to manifest them
selves IN his body; and, at the post
norton examination, .tubercles were
found In the apex Of each lung, and
some on the free surface of the liver.

betrayed far more disturbance than be-
fore. Elliot had the role of q shaky,

his face painted to suit the character,
and altogether looking more like the
corpse OF a forthcoming funeral than
the bridegroom of recent wedding.
A fine object was he, truly, for proud

evolved the article. II never was pub

whitening scorn told me that any man
who didn't know the difference between
woman's corsage and corset
ought never to attempt anything above
police-oourt reporting. l didn't agree
with her and ! cremated the article,
and have since left dressmaking and
dress-wearing lore to the writer's
who can't write about anything else.
From my notes taken at the time I
discover that Mrs. Florence's most gor-
geous dresses were one of mandarin-yel.

cry; another of brocaded damasque
satin, made in "princess" style (what-
ever that may beg, with O design on

ed of different colorcd stuff in green,

blue satin brocade, with designs In

A WARNING AGAINST sEALsK1Ns.

An eminent physician of Philadelphia,
q specialist in throat and chest diseases
said to a reporter of the Record of that
city that furs upon garments to be
worn about the shoulders and neck are
all of them to be avoided. The thought
less manner in which the. garments are
thrown back from the shoulders and
throat after the body has been unduly
heated by them Is the chief objection
to the furs. They also prevent proper
weather can be kept sufficiently warm
with other and lighter garments the
furs should be abandoned. A small
fur boa which is thrown about the
throat, while the wearer is in the open
air, and at once thrown aside upon en-
tering the house, Is considered n good
thing. "The sealskin coats, however.
are especially worthy of notice." said
the doctor, "because they have become
so common. Il Is entirely too heavy a
wrap for this section. fused discreet
ly and only in very cold weather IL Is
unobiectionable; but tho trouble Is that
some of the fair owners OF the pretty.
coats wear them in pretty much MI
sorts of weather because they are both
fashionable and becoming, and because
many ladies can only afford the onf
garment, and must wear it at all
times. Thus it is wrap of everyday
use in climate which does not require
so heavy a garment. The result Is fire.
quent perspirations suddenly checked.
This means cold, consumption and
death"
