WOMAN'S WORLD.
INTERESTING MEDICAL COMMENTS
on A RECENT LECTURE.

A Young Woman BIacksmith-A sum.
mer Skirt-Co-Operation in a Small
Town-Feminine Courage Rewarded
A Psetess Remembered.
The unscientifc emotions educed in
certain quarters by the publication of
Sir James CriChtOn-Browne's lecture on
sex in Education" having now sub
sided to a certain extent. it will be inter-
esting to consider few of the facts as
certained and set forth by the iecturer.
There can be no doubt, for instance,
that in the matter of weigts there is a
marked difference between the male and
female brains. The difference CORE
spends to difference in size.
The female brain in human creatures
is smaller than that of the male and it
is also lighter. The difference in weight
is considerable. The average mans
brain is between four and five ounces
heavier than the average woman's- The
reason, it may be said, is that the woman
herself is smaller than the man in size
and weight. That accounts partly fer
the difference, but not entirely.
1t is shown by many and careful OBJ
servatiens that if women were as tall as
men and as heavy, the average weight
of their brains would still be smaller
than that of men by more than an
ounce. The diminished size and weight
of the brain is said to be a fundamental
sexual distinction in the human species.
1t is not peculiar to civilized men and
women, but is found universally among
savages, wherever sufficient observa-
tons have been made. The difference
in weight does not exhaust the catalogue
of diversities. There is said to be also
a difference of balance between the va
rious parts of the compared brains The
occipital lobes, which preside chiefly
over the physical functions of the organ
ism, are declared to be more volumi-
nous in the female than in the male, a
physiological fact which is contrary to
common belief. A third striking di-
rersity is that while the white matter of
the brain, which has no thought of func-
ton, is almost identical in weight in the
two sexes, the specific gravity of the
gray or thought matter is decidedly
higher in the male than in the female
Now, these are facts.
1t is true that Sir James CrichtOu-
Browne has set them forth, but it is not
true that he has originated them. If
any lady is disposed for quarrel on
the occasion she should not quarrel with
Sir James Crichton-Browne, but with
niggard nature, or with Mr.. Matthew
Arnold's unchivalrous "stream of ten
dency." 1t appears to be unquestion-
able that in purely intellectual endow-
ment the man is superior to the woman.
On the other hand, in the equally noble
emotional capacity the woman in SUI
perior to the man. If these be the facts.
as they certainly appear to be, it is well
that both the sexes should recognize
and make the best they can of them

A Young Woman blacksmith.

Miss Ray Beveridge, though in her
teens, has developed much of the man.
ual dexterity which seems to be char
acteristic of the Beveridge family, and
which in her sister Kuhne took the di-
rectiOn of modelling in clay. Miss RAYS
fondness for hammering and tinkering
was so manifest that some months ago
she matriculated at the Cogswell Poly
technic school and has since pursued her
studies and practice in smith work
under Matthews, the instructor in black
smithing at the school.
Her knowledge is more than a smat-
tering, and on lesson days Miss Bev-
eridge prepares herself for her work in
a way that shows her enthusiasm. Old
boots that cannot be harmed by the
dust and grit of fOrgeroom are worn.
Skirts of no value but for such uses
clothe her, and when she appears in the
smithy, with sleeves rolled up and arms
barred like those of any other black
smith, there is no suggestion of dainti-
ness or unftness for the labor in hand.
Instructor Matthews is proud of his
unique pupil, and has taken pains to
perfect her in all the details of metal
working. Miss Beveridge breaks up her
coal, starts her forge fire in regulation
style, blows it into welding heat and
sets about the special work in hand quite
as heartily as any of the boys in the
school. Her strength is not sufficient to
enable her to heavy welding, and when
that is necessary the instructor lends a
hand, but in the ordinary manipula-
lions she prides herself ON being quite
independent, and her work is both neat
ly and artistically done.
She has given especial study to the
making of brackets, stands of various
sorts and other light forging, and be
ieves that a new direction for the ener-
giles of women has been discovered

as cold and reserved, if not absolutely
selfish, man. A majority Of them now
feel that he has had the full measure Of
honors and rewards that he might under
any circumstances Justly claim as his
due. And many of them feel justly in

thousands who make their preliminary
plans for summer outings, and their main
guide is the summer excursion book issued
yearly by the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company, which regularly appears on that

excel anything of like character ever
published by this progressive railroad COM
pany.

rates prevailing over its own and connect
ing lines to the principal resorts of the
land, but it is equally as valuable rs q

what desirable variations may be utilized
to enhance their pleasure and profit.
Nearly FIVE hundred resorts, ranging from
Prince Edward Island to the mountains of
Western Norlh Carolina, from the southern
extremity of New Jersey to the wild lakes
Of Canada, from the mineral springs of
Virginia to the great inland lakes, are
described at length, and over fifteen
hundred routes, representing a stock of
fifteen hundred special forms of tickets, are
set out clearly and intelligibly within its
pages.
In arranging these routes care has been
observed n making them read over lines
that present the greatest number of inter-
esting points, and in every case there is a
wide field for choice. They also provide
for q return trip by a different direction, so
that the tourist may find his outing a con-

hardly ask for a ticket to an Eastern resort
of any prominence and fail to hndit ready
