There are said to be nearly 2.neo.e tons
of brains in this world. The statement
looks more than fictional at first. one sus-
poets that Richard Harding Davis OF Ste

amount Of their own gray matter But the
total Is veuched for by one of those extra
ordinary dahb,ers in figures who like this
sort Of calculation
There may be that quantity, but q good
deal of 1t must be very shop-worn, and
some Of those whose hrows are bullying
must have got their contents at bargain
counter sale. For instance. take those dis
cipies ct the Aubrey Baardsley cult They
run So much 70 couyoIutions that ore Is
pardoned for thinking their brains may be
little tVistea-like their work. Then the
man who gets up the yellow kid supple

must be something more lurid than gray.
