nerve stimulation into an impress
sion Of the image, perfect in every
detail, and glowing with every col
or? That is the great puzzle.
Attempts have been made to IL
ken the optic nerve to an electric
wire, and to consider an electric cur
rent as being the carrier of the SEN
sations. For many reasons this view
seems improbable.
Another theory, which is at least
interesting. and may prove to be
correct, is that the nerves are COM
posed of chemicals of such con-
stitution that they may be easily
changed. A familiar example of a
similar change is gunpowder. This
is an unstable chemical mixture,
and the application of little heat
is sufficient to cause an explosion,
resulting in new condition of
chemicals.
In the same way our theory sup
poses the nerves to contain chemi-
Gals, which are far more unstable
than gunpowder, so much SO that. I'm
the example given, the nerves of the
eye. a ray of light is sufficient to
change the chemical nature of the
compound at the end of the nerve
instantly. This compound is also so
sensitive that no two things make
the same change. The violence with
which each particle of the chemicals
of the nerve changes causes the next
one to also explode" or change.
and so on, throughout the length of
the nerve, so that the impression
travels from the retina to the BRAIN
To counterbalance this breaking
down, nature has provided a process
of instantaneous rebuilding, which
restores each part of the nerve to its
original state. Sometimes the
shocks of the breaking down come
in such quick succession that the re-
building process fails to counterbal-
ance, and then there is a temporary
paralysis of that nerve. An example
of this is in being blinded by the
light of the sun.
The rapadity of these changes Will
be understood if one will move the
eyes quickly from one view 10 an
other. Immediately the one view
vanishes and the image of another
one is imprinted on the brain. In
the most minute fraction of a second
conceivable the nerve has carried
this message to the brain, by the
chemicals faithfully performing
their functions, and the nerve is i'm
mediately ready for the next i'm
preston.
Whether this theory is correct or
not. one cannot help but be most
deeply impressed with the workings
of this most wonderful of all ma
chines-the human BRAIN Chicago

REMAINS A STRANGE MYSTERY

1 In this age it would seem to be a
difficult task to pick out which one
of the mechanical wonders would be
the most marvellous. From the gil
gantic steam shovel digging the
Panama Canal, down to the compact
adding machine, of inestimable use
to accountants, we find many inge-
NOUS devices, any one OF which
might claim the honor of being the
most wonderful machine.
But there is one machine which
surpasses them all. Indeed 1t Great
ed them all, and in the future will
undoubtedly create many far more
wonderful machines. Its invention
is not recorded in the patent offices,
for it existed long before these.
No one can do more than guess at
the beginning of this wonderful ma
chine. Its origin is shrouded in the
dim past long before the prehistoric
era. The early arts of all the ear
lest people bear it's mark. 1t is
recorded in the pyramids, and even
the sphinx speaks plainly of 1t. The
beautiful sculptures and the deep
philosophy of the Greeks show its
high development and the marvels
of our own day tell us that the most
wonderful machine of all is that
which created them-the human
brain.
True, it is far more than a mere
machine, for there is a spirit which
controls it and directs it's workings,
but it is only of the mechanical part
that we would speak at present.
To learn more of the inner work
ings of that organ which thinks and
carries out ideas, has long attracted
the earnest study of scientists. 1t
is, however, so intricate, so difficult
to approach and so closely tangled
with spirit, that it has eluded the
searchlights of science, and still re-
mains mystery unsolvcd.
Many ingenious and wonderful
guesses have been made, and some
things found out about the brain.
/. 1t has been found that the brain is
divided into many departments, all
under the control of the spirit. From
their respective centers go forth the
nerves to the eyes, ears, fingers, ETC.,
and these nerves keep the brain in

world. Just consider for moment
that everything that anyone knows.
or ever win know, ON this earth has
come, and will come, to them
through the medium of their senses.
For example, let us consider the
eye. We have learned our stud
les of physiology that the eye is
like camera; that the lens in front
focuses the image on the retina,
which is dense network of tiny
nerves, gathered together so as to
form the optic nerve. and this nerve
goes back to the optical section Of
the brain. But how does the i'm
age, focused on the retina, go back
to the brain? More wonderful still,
