The Elusive Lead Pencils.

What becomes of the lead pencils is
as insolvable a problem as what be-
comes of pins. No one ever really uses
up lead pencils; no n drinks them, SO
to speak, to the very dregs, unless it is
one of those admirable people who
keep journals and cash accounts and
who usually carry a sort of penholder
arrangement in which they insert a
half length pencil and go on and on
using it and sharpening it until it is all
gone. Very few people ever get pencils
worn down as far as a half length.
They disappear before that stage is
reached. What becomes of them all!
Hundreds of thousands of them annu-
ally are lent to young children and
never seen again. but what do the chill
dren do with them? Do they eat them
up? Possibly.
Everybody has seer lead pencils the
upper end of which have been chewed
into a brush, but children do not pos
seSs such ostrich stomachs as woui
enable them to consul N all the pencils
that disappear.

THE TRICKY BRAIN CELL.
What Happens When We Know q
Name Which Us.

The anatomy of the nervou system,
and consequently it's physiology, was
regarded in the past as very simple.
Cayal showed that the specific brain
cell is an independent unit provided
with multiple processes, by means Of
which it is capable of acting not
through one nerve alone. but several.
This independent brain unit or cell is
called a neurOn. a simple illustration
of how the neuron works is furnished
by our not %infreQuent hunt for a name
or an idea which we know we possess.
We feel that the name is there, but we
cannot recall it. We get various names
near it. beginning ger with the same
letter or the same vowel sound, yet
only after minutes or even hours does
1t actually occur to us.
What is supposed to happen is that
the particular cell of intellection which
we are using throws out its process
among the cells of memory for names,
connection with cells containing sim
liar names, it is only aftn Il more or
less prolonged search that it hits on the
right one. It is as if the telephone OPP
orator in the central office felt around
blindly for the connection wanted. and
only after putting the plug into various
holes eventually struck the proper one.

The Gloomy Sentries.

To and fro march the sentries in
front of buckingham palace, meeting
face to face for a moment and then
separating without a word, as II their
feud were too deep for speech. This
spectacle is watched with sympathetic
interest by American visitors, who oc-
~casionally intervene. The sentries were
glaring at each other one morning when
a stranger standing close by remarked,
"Come, boys, make it up!' Another
American proposed to heal the breach
with a little friendly conversation.
"Say, does your king live here?' be
opened genially. The two sentries
stared impassively and then resumed
their tramp. Up came a policeman.
"Can l tel you anything, sirT' said he.
EYES," answered the American. Tell
me why these young hearts are sile"t
and sore. Anyhow, why can't they
