upon by several Of the leading writers

only takes upon itself the general shape
and form of the brains of various rep

that the original germ OF the brain as

Helms Thoughts on the Structure
of the Human Brain and Wilson'S
Anatomy of the Human Body both
mention these queer transformations.
as does also Hugh Miller in his famous
work, Testimony of the Rocks" Mil
Ter puts it in this way: 1T has long
been known that the human brain Is
built UP by wonderful process, dur
ing which it assumes in succession the
form of the brain of a serpent. fish,
bird. and lastly. before it assumes the
Characteristic human form. it takes up
on itself the outline OF a mammiferous
Quadrupeds brain" Hence the remark
made by scientific writer's that ''man is
the sum total OF all animals"

A curious custom is still in force at
Norwich, England, in virtue of which
on three days in the year anv one can
claim substantial meal for nothing.

church prayer for the sovereign's
health. Afterward they partake of {
meal of broth, beef and bread, finished
off with liberal allowance of beer.
