ODD FACTS ABOUT YOURSELF

takes YOU to learn it. Then make
comparisons by learning similar
amount OF material by the method
employed by the Misunderstanding
poetry to yourself.
Very few people belong strictly 10
one class. People are usually a com
bination of cye-minded, ear minded
and motor-minded. Even very well
trained musicians do not learn en-
tirely by ear. Ask some well trained
pianist to let you strike several keys
at the same time and see if he can
tell You which ones you sounded.
Very few, you will find, can perform
this feat.
The only way TO determine to which
class YOU belong is to make the
poetry test as given. Unfortunately,
the brain does not conform TO the
shape of the skull. 50 that we cannot
tell absolutely by looking at an IL
dividual to which group nc belongs.
As rule, however, the ear minded
people have a development above ths
ears in the area of what in the brain
is called the temporal lobe-thc re-
ceptiv6 center for hearing.
Because n person does not learn
well through the ear it does not mean
that there is something wrong with
his hearing apparatus. 1t is possible
fur q person to have an ear which
functions normally and yet not hear
well This is due TO the fact that
some of the cells in the brain where
hearing takes place have been affect
ed When sound strikes the ear and
the process OF hearing is begun, the
message is then carried via the
auditory nerve to the brain and there
the particular sound is identified with
a similar sound previously heard and
we become aware of what the sound
means.

A remarkable, convincing tribute
is paid Kellogg's ALL-BRAN in
this letter from Mr.. F. G. Aminsen,
of Seattle:
81 suffered with chronic constipation for
many years and was compelled to use pills
every night. but since | got your Kellogg's
RLL-RRAN it works fine. / would not
be without it. | was so deathly sick of
taking pills every night Now it is SO
different. Kellogg's ALL-BRAN works so
naturally and is pleasant to take"
F. C. AMINsEN.
Kennyhole. Seattle. Washington.
You can get permanent relief
from constipation with Kellogg's
ALL-BRAN if eaten regularly.
Two tablespoonfuls daily or in
chronic cases, with every meal.
Doctors recommend it because it is
ALL BRAN. 1t does a job only
ALL-BRAN can do. Part-bran
products may not do any good at all.
Eat Kellogg's ALL-BRAN with
milk or cream. Use it in cooking.
Try the recipes given on the pack

Are You Ear-Minded

a great musician attended a con
cert which lasted more than four
hours and when n" returned to his
piano he reproduced the entire pro-
gram from memory. This is what We
call an example of the truly ear
minded individual. In school we find
certain children who learn all their
work by listening to the instructor,
while study by reading is to them
great and almost fruitlesS task.
Usually persons who are blinded
become strongly minded. This is
because they learn to stress the
senses which remain with them as q
compensation for what they have lost
Suppose you think of horse" If
you are ear-minded it means that you
must hear the word. If you are con
creteminded you can hear the neigh
ing of the horse or his hOofS as they
beat on tho street. If you are verbal
minded, the thought of a horse brings
YOU the sound of the word as some
one says il.
Stop at this moment-can you hear
your mothers voice? Can YOU hear
distinctly the exact tonal quality of
the voice of your child?
If you wish to make a real test,
have somebody read eight lines of
poetry TO you and see how long it

that is precisely the significance OF
the word gala"
We have gala" from the Italian
where it means specifically "finery.'
And it was with reference to the
finery worn by the people on their
festive days that the term first came
to be used as we know of il.
