Washington, D. c., July 9.-The in

THE HUMAN THROAT.
1t Has a Sort of Little Brain That
Controls Its Actions.

1t Has a Sort of Little Brain That
Controls Its Actions.
Did YOU know that the throat has a
brain Of its own? Few people are
aware of it, but it's a fact. There is
small ganglia which exercises direct
control of the muscles of the throat
and acts as it's brain. OF course it Is
subservient to the genuine brain, but
at the same time does a good deal OF in
dependent thinking for itself. 1t Is
very timid and suspicious Of any
strange objects that come near the
throat.
For thi- reason it is very difficult for
a physician to operate on the throat.
Before anything can be done in this di-
rection it is necessary for the operator
to gain the confidence of the little brain
that dominates it. 1t frequently takes
weeks before this confidence can be
secured, and until it Is secu~fsh II Is
impossible to pefl., a an operation.
Woe to the man who attempts rough
treatment to the throat before gaining
the little brains confidence. His oper
ations will be resented with violent
paroxysms, first of the throat, then Of
the diaphragm, and, If the operator still
persists, the patient will be thrown
into commissions. Still more curious is
the fact that this little brain has
/ memory, and if once frightened in this
way it is almost impossible to evel
gain its confidence, no matter how
gentle the operator may be-.

REPORT DENIED BY PRES. HANSON
Says Southern Has No interest in
! Central.

You may say as emphatically as
you like that the Southern railway has
no interest whatever in the Central
railway; that it or no one connected
with it has any option on the stock
or any part of it, nor has any living
person that know of any option gn it.
Mr.. Oakleigh Thorne, president of the
Trust Company of America, of New
York and Mr.. Marsden J. Perry, presi-
dent Union Trust Company of Provi-
dence own every share of the capital
stock, except the few shares owned by
the directors. They have paid for it
and, as has been printed, will continue
to develop the property along the lines
that have been followed recently.
Amy statement that the. Southern
railway owns AN interest in or has
an option on the property is absolutely
false.''
The above is what Major j. II. Han
son, president of the Central railway,
had to say Monday to a representative
of The Savannah Press with reference
to the recent reports that haye been
circulated in certain quarters relative
to the ownership of the property.
