Beyond Him,

In the staging Of one of his earlier
plays Joseph Jefferson, accompanied
by a friend, attended a rehearsal, at
which lively disagreement arose be-
tween two Of the actresses as to the
possession Of the center of the stage
during certain scene. While the man
ager poured oil upon the troubled wa
tiers Jefferson sat carelessly swinging
his feet from the rail of an adjoining
box. The friend could stand it no
longer.
Good gracious, Jefferson" he ex.
claimed, this will ruin your play.
Why don't you settle matters? You
could If you only wouldv'
Jefferson shook his head gravely, but
with twinkle in his eye. "No, George"
he replied, "the Lord only made one
man who could ever manage the sun
and moon, and you remember even he
let the stars alone '-Harper's Weekly.

THE HUMAN BRAIN.

Its Capacity to Receive the Impress
stons of a Lifetime.
Authorities differ as to the capacity
of the average brain to receive the i'm
pressions Of a lifetime It is pretty
we'll believed that there is in the brain
a center Of conservation distinct from
the center Of perception. We Of course
know nothing as to the nature Of the
relation Of brain cells to precepts and
conservation, but we do know that
there must be a relation. The re-
searches Of Hammerberg and Thomson
show that the number Of cells in the
brain is 9,20O,OOO,OOO. All stimuli, ex-
ternal Through the five senses) or in
ternal Through processes), must leave
some trace upon these cells, chemical,
physical or dynamic These stimuli
are composed of all sorts of precepts-
words and sounds heard; things and
words seen; objects felt, tasted, SMELL
ed; sensations perceived in our own
bodies; thoughts pushing upward into
consciousness. And a little reflection
will show how innumerable such i'm
prints must be in the course Of single
waking day.
Even without reading, the resident Of
a city must receive an incalculable
number Of impressions upon his brain
every twenty-four hours. The reading
center Of the brain occupies compare
lively small area in the back of the left
hemisphere and consequently must pos
sess very small portion of the 9,OOO,-
100000 cells referredto above. We can
only guess at the number, but fair es-
innate would be about a twentieth, or,
say, 5O0,000,000, which in lifetime of
sixty years would allow us about 20
600 cells a day for the perception and
conservation Of words and sentences
read. These figures may have no
scientific value, but at any rate they
emphasize a very important fact, and
that is that our brain capacity is limit
ed and that we should be sparing of
the cells we daily squander.-Dr Fred
/ erick Peterson in Golfers.

their imagined recitals Of griefs aud
Joys with sympathetic SOUL, counseTed
them in premature1y old way, ch1ded
them gently but firmly for their mis-
takes, commended good conduct when
ever she discovered it in them and al
most merci!essly rebuked such short
comings as common sense should have
spared them.
But notwithstanding the child's i'm
aginative gift she was intensely prac-
teal in a quick witted way that often
astonisbed those about her. She had
an eager desire to learn domestic arts.
and her peculiar conscientiousness in
the doing of whatever she undertook
to do usually resulted in a skill supe-
rior to that Of her teachers.
She loved to haunt the kitchen,
where her courtesy won even the can
tankerOus cook for a friend, and from
her the girl learned so much of her art
that the cook could teach her no more.
In the laundry the good natured Irish
woman who presided over that depart
ment of household economy gave her
always so warm welcome that the
child came to think Of the faithful wo-
man as one Of her choicest friends.
Working with her over a little ironing
board, Barbara quickly became expert
in all the finer and more delicate opera
tons of her art.
So Barbara educated herself upon
lines which she deemed womanly.
There was no art of kitchen or laundry
or sewing room in which, as she grew
older, she did not make herself the su-
perior of the highly paid seryitors
whose skill her aunt employed to per-
form such functions. For explanation
she said only:

His Sense of Humor and His Unosten-
tatious Charity.
Many joke is credited to Thaddeus
Stevens, who led the Republicans in
congress during the civil war and the
troublous times after.
One of the very keenest of his jests,
which is undoubtedly authentic, is so
commonplace in sound that one might
easily be forgiven for failing to take
In its meaning. In his last days David
Reese and John Chauncey, two en-
ployees Of the house Of representatives,
used to carry him in a large armchair
from his lodgings across the public
grounds, up the broad stairs of the
capitol.
"Who," he said to them one day, "will
be so good to me and bear me in their
strong arms when you two mighty men
are gomez"
Such a question implied nothing short

One Cause of Eye Disease

A Scotch surgeon recently called at
tention to the connection between an
uncared for mouth with carious teeth
and form of eye disease. He de-
scribes three cases, in each of which
the teeth were In very bad condition.

breath had sour smell, and the COM
plexion was Of a muddy, sallow tint.

teeth into good condition. Such pro-
eedure, together with suitable tonics

q perfect recovery. This is only one
