ARE AFTER SAILORS.
Shipping Agents at Pacific Coast

Points Find Shortage of Seam en-:
Sailors are very scarce in the
Pacific Coast Ports nowadays, and
the "crimpers" are busy, for the
"blood money" is high. The latest
practice much in vogue at present
seems to be to induce sailors TO desert
their vessel and ship Immediately
on another, thus giving captains
hard time to keep their crews on
board.
YESTERDAY, shipping runners were
after the crew OF the French bark
Montebsllo. They induced the men
to leave their work early in the
morning and took them to a saloon
where they paid for all the sailors
could drink. One of the men was
offered position as driver for the
Tramways Co. while another was
promised job as foreman in plan
tation. The offers wers 80 prepos-
ferrous that the sailors refused to

HEADS AND MINDS.
A Scientific Person Says There Is No
Necessary Relation Between Them.

London Chronicle.
A very old and always popular topic is
whether there is any definite relationship
betwixt the size and shape of the head and
the individual Intelligence. While some
great men have certainly had big heads.
others have not surpassed the average,
while, cortTariwise, many large-headed in
dividuals are by no means brilliant intel
lectually but otter the reverse.
The vast bulk of brain is composed Of
white matter-that is, of nerve fbers-
which has nothing whatever TO do with real
brain work. and which only carries mes

IL is only the brain cells of very limited

Go with the highest mental operations
When, therefore, we talk about the size OF
the head and brain, and the weight of the
brain, we should clearly understand that
only an infinitesimal fraction OF the three
pounds weight or so Of an ordinary brain
can be reckoned as representing brain
cells that are the agents of our nervous
governance. Practically the brain cells (of
the cerebrum or great brain at leasD bear
no larger proportion to the brains mass
than the rind of a Dutch cheese does to

the results of an investigation made into
the question of the relation between the

apart from such a wide comparison. he ar

that there is no marked correlation between

examination and the size and shape OF the

KNEIPP CURES GALORE.
All Sorts of Remedies Used by Dis
ciples of the Bavarian Priest.

New York Mail and Express.
Since the introduction in the United
States. several years ago, of the Kneipp
method of curing disease there has been a
steady growth in the number of remedies
advocated and placed on sale by the pro-
moters Of the theories and practices of the
famous Bavarian priest. At first Father
Kneipp's system was confined TO walking
barefooted through wet grass, and a few
simple applications of hot and cold water;
whereas, at present. not only has the
water cure been elaborated upon, but
herb medicines of all kinds and for all all
ments are sold, in addition to the develop
ment of large trade in Kneipp diets
Chief among the latter is the Kneipp
malt coffee, for which a large sale is pre-
dicted in the near future not alone TO those
following the teachings of Kneipp. but TO
those who have been even most emphatic
in deriding his work. Malt coffee is manu-
featured from barley, and makes a really
palatable beverage. Kneipp tea has also
