Brains and Other Brains.

Studying the brain of the lower AMI
mails, we now have a fair knowledge Of
the localization OF many of its func.
lions, With the functions OF the front
part we are rs yet not familiar. The
part which lies, roughly speaking, be-
hind and in front of one OF the chieI
assures OF the brain (the assure OF
RolandO, which runs downward and
fOreward above the carr is known as
the motor region. In this region the
different ccnters have been mapped out
in the monkeys brain, and have been
verified in the brain of man many
times. Most OF that part OF the brain
above and behind the ear has no special
functions that we know OF at present,
except one region, which is the center
for sight. Injury TO this produces
blindness Of the half OF each retina or
the same side rs the injury to the
brain. But it is extremely difficult to
obtain in the lower animals any evil
dence OF the special senses other than
that Of touch, the abolition of which
produces loss of feeling, OF which we
can get exact evidence. Motion and
sensation, therefore, are the two things
that can be most readily determined. =

The Jinriksha for .NcMnOrt.

Next season a novel mode OF
clancy transportation" is to be
introdu ccd to the fashionable world
OF Newport. Every imaginable
style of vehicle has had its day at that
leading resort, 5 we the j irnriksha,"
the japanese hanson. and now even
that is promised. People who have
visited Japan are enthusiastic in their
praise OF this queer little carriage on
two wheels, drawn by IL native, whose
elaborate harness consists of a huge
bOwl-shaped hat and Il navy-blue
gaberdine. This costume, however.
would here be adapted to western pro-
priety and climate, but the ''jinriksha"
ought to catch on. as it has done at the
Paris exhibition. The Parisiau5 have
taken it to their hearts and gardens.
and it won't be long before Japan's
pet vehicle is seen travelling up and
around Bots de Boulogne. To kno W
how distractingly pretty a young lady
can be in her ''jinriksha" look at the

THANKSGIVING wisHGoNE.

Jenny and Johnny, and Albert and Mary,
Sat at the table ON Thanksgiving Day.
The turkey, all stuffed, ami ,basted, and
brown,
Upon a big platter was turned upside down;
With its legs pointing skyward, its wings
pinioned back, %"
AS old Farmer johnson begun the attack.
He carved a nice piece from the rich steam
And passed to his wife-tho first piece, and
best; - ::
Then said Now Miss Jennie, what cut do
you like"
20, please give me just what you happen to
strike ,.~..'
Some white meat or dark, or leg, or
wing"
She was a guest, and n sweet pretty thing
OF some eighteen years, and the farmers
boy Johnnie ....
Thought never a damsel was one-half so
bonnie. -. ..., .. .
The farmers boy Albert, was equally sure
That May Jennie's sister-his heartache
could cure. o..
And so these two sisters, by special re
quest,
Were there to take. dinner, dressed up in
their best.
Jenny was pretty, and dainty, though vain,
While May was more sensible, homely aud
plain.
Give Jennie the wishbone," said Johnnie
at last
Accordingly, to her the wishbone was
passed,
And all the while that her dinner she ate,
The wishbone was resting close by her
plate.
With united action, they all waded in,
Till their knives and their forks made a
regular din.
The turkey, when finally laid on the shelf,
Was only wreck of its once gorgeous
The squash, and potatoes, and cranberry
sauce,
And mince pie and pumpkin, with crust all
Had each done its duty, and every one
Drew back and declared the dinner was
"Now then, who will wish" cried Jennie,
the fair,
AS high up she held the wishbone in air
a will! said they all, and then came
1nsomuch that the wishbone was lostin the
shuttle.
May was the first one the wshbone to
spy,
And pursued by Johnnie, she quickly did
fly,
Clear through the sitting room into the
hall,
In chamber; in cellar; in parlor and all,
Then from sheer exhaustion dropped into
char,
With cheeks all aglow, and tumbled down
hair:
And Johnny rushed up and without more
ado
SmaclSed kiss on her lips, and I don't
know but two
"l.et us wish" said May, for | still have
the bone,
1t is due you think, for your chase to
atone"
Now, dear reader, we ought to have told you
before,
That though May liked Albert, she loved
Johnnie more,
And her honest wish, when she pulled on
that bone
Was, that some day she might have him all
for her own.
They pulled on the wishbone, and May won
the toss,
But what was her gain was by nomeans his
loss
For from that very minute, affairs took
turn,
And Johnnie and May are so friendly. we
learn,
That when Thanksgiving Day again takes
its place,
They'll have hooked up together for lifc's
rugged race.
We know not what Alfred and Jennie will
do,
But the neighbors all think they will get
married too.
Now Mayis ready at all times to own
That there's bOundess virtue in turkeys

Much OF the hard work Of converting pigs

You may sing Of the beauty OF spring time
That glows on the check of the young,
But sing OF a beauty THAT'S rarer,

But sing of a beauty that's rarer,
Than any of which you have sung.
The beauty that's seen in the faces
Of women whose summer is DER,
The autumn-lile beauty that charms US
Far more than the beauty Of yore.
But this beauty is seen too rarely. The faces
OF most women lose the beauty of youth too
soon. Female disorders are like frosts which
come to nip the flowers which betoken good
health without which there can be no real
beauty. II our American women would fortify
themselves against the approach Of the terrible
disorders so prevalent among them, by using
DIR. Pierce's Fayorite Prescription their good
looks would be retained to "sweet old age"
This remedy is a guaranteed cure for all the
distressing weaknesses and arrangements
peculiar to women. ~.
