from the New York Times. for proof
OF the spurious" nature OF the let
ter attributed to the authorship OF

ed by Mr. Kern in speech at hir-

favored the candidacy of The repnb-

Kern branded Its use as a campaign
document by Mr.. Tafts campaign
managers as an attempt to place a
stigma upon the memory of the eS-
president
He further declared that although
proven TO be fabrication. the news
papers responsible for its circulation
either have failed to right the alleged
wrong, or have so placed the re-
traction as to attract no attention.
The Tines declared In long tce-
gra that reached Mr.. Kern at Bir-

genuineness OF the letter was flimss
and called upon the sice-prcsidentiai
candidate to produces any proof he
might have to bear out the charge
made In his speech.

Most Marvellous Machine.

From Harper's Weekly.
 The human brain is the most marvellous machine in the world. It occupies less space in proportion to it's capa bilties than any machine ever invented It sends special nerve to every ultimate fiber of some 800 muscles, to many thou sand branching twigs of arteries, to every plnhead area of the numerous glands. which keep the machine properly oiled. heated or cooled: to some 16 square feet of skin, which Is the outpost guard of it's castle, with such completeness that the point of a pin cannot fino an area unguarded It possesses special quarters for the reception and translation of a constant stream of vibrations that are the product of all things movable or still in the outer world. On the retina of every open eye is a picture of the outer view, a focused imprint of every ray of light and color ana in the Visual Chamber of the Mental palace stands n vibra scope a magic lantern that receives the retnal picture in it's billion speeding series of light waves and throws them upon it's mental screen as living nov Ing picture of light and shade and color. In the Chamber of Sound is a vibraphone. over whose active wires passes every wave sound. from the dripping of the dew to the orchestral fortissimo. from the raucous screech of the locomotive to the signing of the wnd' through the meadow grass. In the chamber set apart for Scent and Taste and Touch are the secret service guards to report upon the air and food which gives sustenance to the palace. and upon the solid qualities of the tactie world. And, wonders of all wonders, this complex human brain can think in all languages or in no language and even conceive it's own physical nor tality
