THE STUDY OF BRAINS
Work Done by Institute, to Which
Two Have Been Beaueathed.

Even in this well-informed age, few are
aware that there is a great international
movement on foot for the study OF the
human brain 1t began some years ago
at the suggestion OF Prof. Wilhelm His
Tho International Association of Academ-
les OF Lelpsic appointed q central COM
mission OF interacademic brain research
This central commission has just official
ly informed the Wistar institute of
Philadelphia, that II is TO be the central
institute for the study of the brain In the
United States, The conduct of the work
Will be left TO Dr. Donaldson OF the Johns
Hopkins Medical school he having been
elected member OF the central commits
sion for interacadernic brain research.
This adds unique feature TO the work
OF the Wlstar institute, and, coming at a
time when attention had been called to
the Investigations carried on at this sclen-
ti1c center through tho news that two
men. remarkably In two diametrically diff
ferent planes OF life, had willed their
brains TO tho Investigators, II serves to
emphasize the importance Of a work that
that been carried on for some time with
little attention from the general public.
Tho two men referred TO as bcqueathing
their brains TO the Wistar institute are
the late General Wistar, who endowed
the institute. and Edward Dunlap 4 re-
carefully examined by the scientists OF
the institute and arc now on exhibition
In the show cases OF the museum at
tached to tho building and open TO the
public. Both men in their lifetime were
OF the opinion that study OF their
brains would further the interests Of
science General Wistar willed his brain
to the institute In which he had for SO
long been vitality Interested, because he
wished to help along tho cause OF brain
research. Dunlap wllled his cerebral ma
chinery for the reason that he believed
that something abnormal about tho con-
struction of his brain was responsible for
his long life OF crime.
At some future time, when the studies
of the brain Investigators have been pur-
sued to successful results, there may be
discovered some reason for the criminals
wrongdoing In tho natural malformation
of the brain. AT present however the
scientists at tho Wlstar institute have TO
admit that no cerebral reason for Dun
laps career of crimo can be discovered
from a study OF his brain. The assures
are perhaps a little wider than in some
breins, but in hundreds OF brains of cole
brated men examined at the Wistar in
stitute the examiners have been able to
trace little or nothing TO distinguish them
from that of the noted burglar. The mu-
scum Is at the service of any scientist
who is interested In brain research. and
scores of Jars containing gray matter OF
men in all walks of life are on view in
the cases. Models OF the brains of yari-
GUS distinguished individuals are also on
exhibition and casts of sections OF s7av
matter are to be seen In the cases-Sew
