BRAIN DOES NOT THINK.
The Thinker Is the Greatest Mystery
Of Conscious Personality.

Those physiological and surgical
facts which show that brain matter
has itself no capacity for thought are
OF such recent discovery that only a
relatively small number of persons
mostly specialists-haVe the least idea
that the brain neither originates a
word nor forms a notion. Anatomy
and physiology alike indicate that the
brain is never other than the instru-
ment of what-in the present state Of
science-must be called the person
atty" The personality is as different
from, as separate from, the brain as
the violinist is separate from the vio-
lin. 1t is not brain which makes man.
Man makes one of his brain hemis-
pheres human by his own labor. If a
human personality entered a young
chimpanzee's brain-where, by the
way, it would find all the required
cerebral convolutions-that. ape could
then grow into a true inventor or
philosopher. For it is the great man
who makes the great brain and not
the great brain which makes the man.
This is another way of saying that
we can make our own brains-so far
as special functions or aptitudes are
| concerned. Human brain matter does
not become human in its powers, in
deed, until the personality within
takes it in hand to fashion it.
What is the "he himself which thus
takes the mechanism known as the
brain and uses it for thought as a tel
egrapher would use a ticker and a
series of wires for the transmission of
messages? In the present state of an,
atomy and of pathology, replies Dr.
Thomson, in effect, we have here the
greatest mystery connected with the
conscious personality. We know that
the conscious personality-or what
ever one pleases to call it-has a ma
terial organ to think with. The con
scious personality does the thinking

BACK TO HIS sHIPMATE.
What Won a Sailor Back to His coun.
try's Service.

When the frigats Cumberland went
down in Hampton Roads, rammed by
the Merrimac, says a writer in the
New York Sun, Jack Gardner, sailor,
mounted the main rigging, flag in
hand, and there waved degance to the
enemy. Although the ship grounded
with the masts out of water, and
Gardner was not drowned, his name
went round the world for the spec
tacular deed
Some time later a steam-cruiser,
hunting the seas over for the confed-
crate Alabama, put in at st. Helena
island for coal and water. While the
bunkers were being filled fisherman
came near in a small boat and threw
out his lines. He was dressed in a
ragged uniform of a United States
marine. A boat was lowered from the
cruiser and several seamen put out to
see the fisherman.
Hello, matey!' said the officer in
charge.
Hello yourself!" said the fisher
man, throwing out another line.
We're short of men. Don't you
want to come along?"
mo. This suits me-"
"Your country needs you"
This is my country right now."
Evidently the troubles of his native
land troubled him not at all. He was
supremely comfortable and rested
easy. 1t seemed a hopeless task to
interest him in the service, until one
of the seamen spoke up.
"Gardner's with us" he said.
The fisherman became alert.
Jack Gardner of the Cumberland? ~
he asked.
AYE"
Hes on there with you fellers?'

Call him up"
The sailor halloed for Gardner and
the hero came to the rail.
"Ship ahoy, old Jack!" called tho
fisherman.

Owes Double AlIeoiance.

Count Prosper D'Epinay, who has
been decorated in Paris by the British
ambassador with the Victorian Order,
is in the odd position of being Brit
ish subject and yet Frenchman at
the same time. He was born in the
island of Mauritius some 65 years ago.
The island, of course, is inhabited by
p French-speaking population and once
formed part of the territories of
France Both the counts parents be-
ing French, the count is regarded in
France as Frenchman, but being
born under the British flag he is just
as surely British subject.
