Aankfnd's Brain in the Throat.

Did you ever know" said a we'll
! known specialist. that the throat has 8
brain of its swn? No? l suppose few
of the laity dc know it. but it's fact
There is small ganglia which exer-
cises direct control over the muscles of
I the throat and acts as its brain. OF
course, it is subSeryient to the genuine
brain, but at the same time does a
good deal of independent thinking for
itself. 1t is very ;imid and suspicious
of any strange objects that come near
the throat. For this reason it is very
difficult for physician to operate on
the throat. Before anything can be
done in this direction it is necessary
for the operator to gain the confidence
of the little brain that dominates it
1t frequently takes weeks before this
confidence can be secured. aud until it
is secured it is impossible 10 operate.
When the little brain is finally made to
understand that no harm is intended
it, but that the physician is actuated
by friendly motive, it will submit to
almost any treatment, however painful.
But woe be TO the man who at
tempts rough treatment to the throat
before gaining the little brains con-
idence, and in spite of its protests. His
operations will be resented with vio-
lent paroxysms, first of the throat then
of the diaphragm, and if the operator
still persists. the patient will be thrown
into commissions. Still more curious is
the fact that this little brain has a
memory, and if once frightened in this
way it is almost impossible to ever
gain its confidence, no matter how gem
lie the operator may be."-Phiiadetphia

Asks $4,000 for Sitting on a Tack.
A great many suits have been en-

Car company, but the queerest one Of

Kramer, who sues 1t for $4,000 dam.
ages, the result of sitting down upon
tack. The statement which Mr..
Kramer makes regarding the casual
ty is rather incomplete. He found a
tack in the cane seat of car. The
manner of finding the tack was sim
pie, but effective. Mr.. Kramer went
into the car and sat right down upon
the tack. He probably got right up
again, although this fact is not men
toned in the court statement, but the
damage had been done. The wound he
suffered lead to Assesses. The tack
could not have been the ordinary car
pet variety, as it protruded up
through the bottom OF the seat, and
protruded very badly at that. Mr..
Kramer did not give the number OF
the car in his statement, and, there
fore, there is no means of knowing
whether that particular tack has been
driven back to a place of safety, or
whether it is still lurking for uncon-
scious victims.

who she is certain will take her every

somewhat doubtful tact of brother

the kind of description that the
