Enormous Brain ana Thin skn,,.

When Ivan Turgeneff. the great
Russian novelist. died in 1883. his
brain was removed for the purpose of
weighing it. the distinguished physi-
clans and surgeons having often re-
marked the extraordinary size OF his
head. When placed on the delicate
balances the brain was found to weigh
exactly 2,0l2 grammes. The meaning
of this can be better understood when
il is known that the weight of tie
average human brain is but 800
grammes. Turgencif's brain was tue
heaviest that has yet been weighed.
Culver's coming next. his having
weighed l.S00 grammes There are
many cases in which an extraordinary
intellect has been accompanied by q
heavy brain weight. but men whose
mental superiority is understood by
friend a;d foo have often bad brains
under the average weigat. One other
peeuliarity OF Targcnea was the SUR
prisipg tbinness Of his skull. When Mt
school he often tainted from being
playfully tapped on the temples by his
school-fellows. The post-mortem.

Of the brain. also proved that the
skull was so thin that it would yield TO

"'Well, he said, grimly, you played

had ridden through the entire camp,

The Story of the Obelisk.

AT Heliopolis was the Temple of the
SUI. and the schools which Herodotus
visited because the teachers are con-
sidercd the most accomplished men In
Egypt" When Strabo came hither.
four hundred years later, he saw the
house which Plato had occupied; Moses
iere learned 'all the wisdom Of the
Egyptians" Papyri describe Heliopolis
rs full of oGelisks." Two of these
columns were carried TO Alexandria
1887 years ago, aud set up before the
Temple Of Cesar. According to one
authority, this temple was built by
Cleopatra; in any case. the two obelisks
acquired the name of Cleopatra's
Needles, and though the temple itself
in time disappeared. they remained
where they had been placed - one
erect. one PROSTATE until, in recent
years, Que was given to London and
the other TO New York. One recites
all this in a breath in order to bring
up. if possible. the associations which
rush confusedly through the mind as
one stands beside this red granite
column rising alone in the green fields
AT Heliopolis. No myth itself. it was
erected in days which are to us my
thicil-days which are the Jumping
Oft place Of our human history; yet
they were not savages who polished
this granite. who sculptured this in-
scription; ages Of civilization OF cer-
tain sort must have preceded them.
Beginning wsssA ,se Central Park. we
force our minds backward in an en-
deayor to make these dates real.
Homer was modern compared with
the designers of this pillar" we say to
ourselves. The siycene relies were
articles de Paris of centuries and CEN
turies later" But repeating the words
(and even rolling the r'S) are useless
efforts; the Imagination will not rise;
it is crushed into stupidity by such u
vista of years. As reaction. perhaps
as revenge. we ilee TO geology and
