CenterS of the Brain

brain. Tho function OF language. for

lobe5 OF the brain IA altered or de-
stroyed. Or. Grasset IN recent
work on "Spir!tism," holds that tho
ccntcrs OF automaGsm and sub-con-
sciousness form together n kind OF
rolygunal area. In The Revue de Phil.

tic1 Of an immaterIal soul and its re-

conceptions arc not incompatible. In

what docs Il matter TO the biologist
SO long as he can localize the center?
These ccntcrs OF the brain are as in
dispersable for the expression Of tho

tcrs Of higher as well as OF lower in

distinct from tho study OF the princl.

should not become a department ot

science OF the cerebral instrument
whose Intervention IS necessary for
the regular working OF that will and
conscience. Each OF these two sci
