Famous brains are Of four sorts.
The lowest group contains the minds
that are stimulated greatly by alcohol,
tea and other drugs and by impress
sions derived from the senses; the sec
ond group contains the infant prodi-
gies, whose intellectual powers wane
in middle age; the third group contains
the pathological cases, usually termi-
mating in insanity; the fourth and
highest group is that of true geniuses,
whose powers remain unimpaired until
old age. This is Haussmann's classifi-
cation. SpitZka has come to the con-
clusicn that men eminent in exact sci
ences, like astronomy and mathemat-
les, have the greatest avetage brain
