The Migration Of brains.
New York Ledger.


A medical authority asserts that post
mortem examination of the fingers of a
blind man discloses, at the tips. a deposit
identical with the gray matter of the
brain 1t has for years been a noted fact
that blind people become marvelously apt
I'm detecting things with their fingers and
this statement gives rise TO the query just
what Ia brain matter, and how does il act ?
This authority seems inclined TO the belief
that nature compensates for the loss of
sight bv transferring 10 the finger-tips
some OF the perceptive matter OF the brain,
and this accounts for the supersensitive-
ness OF the touch OF people with defective
vision Blind persons who perform no
manual labor have very delicate hands and
fnger-tips. and there may be some truth
In the theory OF a brain migration. 1t is
quite as plausible. however. to believe that
there are in the finger-tips latent cells that
develop when the necessity for them pre-
sents itself. Indeed. this seems much more
likely than that there is any actual trans
ference OF brain matter from one part of
the body TO another.
