How Long 1t Takes an Idea to Reach the
Human Brain.
Some of the readers have, no doubt,
frequently made use Of the expression
''quick as thought" but have any OF
them ever stopped to consider how
quick thought is? A writer in the
Nineteenth Century has made some in.
teresting calculations regarding the
comparative length of time it takes to
call to mind various everyday facts.
1t takes about two-ffths of a second
to call to mind the country in which a
well-known town is situated, or the
language in which familiar author
wrote. We can think of the name OF
next month in half the time we need
to think Of the name of last month. II
takes on the average one-third of a
second to add numbers consisting OF
one digit, and half second to multiply
them. Such experiments give us con-
siderable insight into the mind.
Those used to reckoning can add two
to three in less time than Others those
familiar with literature can remember
more quickly than others that Shake.
speare wrote Hamlet" 1t takes longer
to mention month when a season as
been given than to say to what month
season belongs.
The time taken up in choosing h mo.
ton, the twill time" can be measured
as well as the time taken up in per-
ceiving. If do not know which OF
two colored lights is to be presented,
and must lift my right hand if it be rec
and my lift if it be blue, I need abou,
one-thirteenth OF second to initiate
the correct motion. I have also beer
able to register the sound waves made
in the air by speaking, and thus have
determined that in order to call up the
name belonging to a printed word
need about one-nlnth of second, to s
letter one-sixth of Il second, to pict
ure one-quarter of a second, and to j.,
color one-third of a second. - ...s
! A letter can be seen more quickl,
than a word, but we are so used tt
reading aloud that the process has be
come quite automatic, and a word cal
be read with greater ease and in les
time than q letter can be named. TIL,

sons give times differing but little
from my own. Mental processes, how
ever, take place more slowly in chill

CHAPTER SIXTH.

Il am glad" said Mr.. Ingram, "that
so wise and just a decision was made.
1t will relieve you of the disagreeable
duty of hanging us and you will also
escape the trouble of arranging any
technical difficulties that are almost
sure to arise when two men attempt to
execute six. Now I suppose, as this is
simple strike. and believe it is the
first that has ever arisen on board a
ship, you will have no objection to sub
nit the matter to arbitration.''
''None in the least" replied the Cap
tain.
"As you are so good Us to agree to
this it becomes us to make like con-
cessions. We will give you every ad-
vantage. I will act for the crew and
the Mate will act for you. presume
that is satisfactory to you.''
Perfectly. But who is to be the
third man?'
''That we concede entirely to you.
You shall choose him. That, you see,
throws the majority OF the arbitration
committee on your side. Choose any
body but yourself, Captain"
Mr.. Ingram said this with a frank
air that was very charming. The
Captain frowned and scratched his
head. The proposition certainly looked
magnanimous, bat as there was no one
for him to choose but one of the crew
he looked obviously at the Mate, who
was 50 bewildered that he seemed able
to make no suggestion.
"Look here" said the Captain.
"Cone into the cabin for few mo-
ments. Perhaps we can adjust this
difficulty without appointing third
man."
Mr.. Ingram bowed gravely and fol-
lowed the Captain down the companion
way, the Mate remaining outside by
the direction of his chief
"Now," began the Captain, "who are
you any how? You are not common
sailor"
"No," said Ingram, II am lawyer.
J. am rather an expert yachtsman and
.lm merely here on a vacation"
"Ah, see, The crew have retained
YOU"

"Then you are quite willing tc
chuck up their case and take q re.

Very we'll, them" the Captain says,
"or, In other words. the law IS, that this
IS q mutiny. It will, therefore. be nv
painful duty to hang you and the other
nVe gentlemen who compose the crew
unless you at once cease your mutinous
conduct"
j. Marston Ingram bowed low and
answered.: -. ..~...- .'.....
u will present your decision to nv
comrades and inform you of their re-
ply"
After short conference, Mr.. Ingram
turned to the Captain and said:
II beg to state respectfully that the
men refuse to accept your decision, and
also refuse to be hanged"
"Refuse!" cried the Captain. "Oh,
this Is mutiny. I thought so before,
but now am sure of it. However, I
am willing to make any reasonable
concession. If they prefer to walk the
plank to being hanged, I will accom-
mOdate them.'
THE impression I gathered from
their conversation was that it was not
so much the method they objected to
as to the result. However, shall be
pleased to submit your alternative to
them"
He again turned to the men, and the
discussion this time was a longer one.
Finally he came back and addressed
the Caotain:
las thought. the men refuse, also,
the alternative. They are, however,
willing to admit that this is mutiny
on one condition"
What is that?" asked the Car 49,.

They did not have long to wait. Th
Captain came forward and said:
II have carefully considered tn
question in all its bearings and take
note of several points that before es
capped my attention. l now decide tina
this is a strike"
;, A rousing, hearty, honest nautica
J. cheer went up as this judgment Wa
rendered.
