ing; at frst we have TO acquire these
gifts through the exercise Of close
intellectual attention: later on they
are automatically performed.
We do not after the childish stage
OF education require TO bethink our
selves over the shape OF letters, the
sound OF syllables or the formation
OF words by act Of the pen. Clearly
what was at first an intellectual act
has become purely mechanical.
Also In exercising the other X
and in doing a sum we arrive at a
correct solution without having TO
think out the rationale OF the opera
ton. as we did when taught arith-
metlc at school. The saving TO the
intellectual centres which deal with
questions and affairs OF every moment
must be enormous in consequence OF
this division OF labor. The centres IN
question are left free to exercise judg-
ment and to engage in the highest
operations of our conscious life.
In the brain structure we actually
find centres which discharge these
automatic duties and play the part
OF private secretaries to the head
Of the mental firm. Even when we
come to higher brain operations a
like principle prevails.
Centres are set apart for govern
ing muscles, others receive messages
from organs OF sense, and others
again, sitting in the Judgment seat,

ODD HAIR DRESSING STYLES.
coIffure That at Distance Looked
Like the Rising Sun.


Like the Rising Sun.
Zone Of the most interesting things
that came under my observation was
the odd manner in which the people
wore their hair said Dr. Harry Dor
sey, describing a recent visit to New
Guinea and the leading traits and
characteristics of the inhabitants,
known as Papuans. Zone type wore
the hair standing up from the head
at a length of seven inches or more.
It was trimmed with wonderful regu'
larity and with mathematical accur-
acy. The hair was CREASED with
cocoanut oil and painted red. At a
distance it looked like rising sun.
Another type OF the inhabitants
who wear their hair in an unusual
fashion was described by DR.. Dorsey.
Starting from the forehead" he
said, 1.-The hair is brushed back over
the scalp and hangs down to the
waist. 1t is a perfect nassau in
tricate jungle. ! am sure it was never
combed and 1t was impossible to run
the fingers through it,. At distance
It looks like a cap with the visor
turned downward.
Zone other odd type of hair dress

served on this visit. The hair was
gathered at the front and back, then
brought together above the head,
where it was enclosed in basket-like
cylinder. The end spread out about
two inches. Apparently these caps
are never removed from the head. -

SECRETARIES TO THE BRAIN.
Centres Which, Once Taught, Attend
Always TO Same Details.

Habit Is the requirement OF a ma
chine-like or automatic power OF per
forming certain duties Actions which
we have at first to exercise our In
tellectual centres to be able to per-
form are ultimately discharged with
out any reference TO our mind or
consciousness.
Indeed when the intellect comes to
interfere with the automatic per-
Torrance OF such acts. says the Lon

to be less perfectly executed than
when the machlnelike activity OF brain
Is permitted TO have It's sway. Take
