THE HUMAN BRAIN
Its Crumpled Up Shape Is One or
Nature's Clever Devices.
CELLS OF THE CRAY MATTER.
Their Mass and Not the Si-e Nor
Weight of the Brain Marks the MenA._

lenity ui Mic inun.wvu. w.wr
ment of th? Brain of an In.'ant.
Tlie apparent crumpling up of tlit*
brain is one of the ui??st remarkable of
nature's devices for securing the greatest
possible amount of surface in the
given space. If you take a page of a
newspaper and lioi'd it by the edges,
blowing it up to form a balloon, you
have the surface of the paper occupying
the largest possible amount of
space. If you crumple up the paper
you can get the same amount of stir
face by following till the creases in
one-fourth to one-tenth of the space.
This is precisely what nature has done.
In the rabbit, for instance, the cerebrum.
or great brain, with which most
of the thinking is done, is without a
crease, perfectly round and smooth,
and the rabbit is about the stupidest
of animals.
If you study the brains of animals a
little higher in intelligence than the
rabbit you will find that creuses come
into the bniin until in man the entire
brain is n series of creases and convolutions
that puzzle you by their intricacy.
It Is plain that the actual surface
of this creased brain of man is
many times greater than if it were all
Bmeoth. like the rabbit's, and this is
the way in which evolution has provided
for giving the brain of man a
surface from four to ten times what it
would have been If smooth, so as to
give space for as much gray matter as
possible.
No scientist has yet explained the
reason, but the fact is admitted that
thought and gray matter are in proportion.
The cells of the gray matter
seem to store up thought and give it
out when called upon to do so. This
has been proved by electrically stimulating
the gray matter when exposed
by an accident or operation and noting
the result in the thoughts expressed by
the patient. This gray matter is spread
in a coat of varying thickness all ovoi
the sufaee of the brain, while the
white matter and nerves lie under it
and ramify into it.
A man may be said to be intellectual
in proportion to the amount of gray
matter which lie has in his brain. This
varies in individuals, one having inure
gray mater tit one spot, another a
thicker layer at another, much of this
being doubt, ess due to cultivation,
though the aws of the multiplication
of gray mat er are still secrets which
v.
science has not-pierced.
Nor can intellectuality ne measured
by the weight of the brain. The average
male brain weighs forty-eight
ounces, and the average female brain
forty-three and a half, but this does
not mean that woman is necessarily
man's inferior Intellectually. Iler brain
may have more gray matter In proportion
or thicker layers at the parts
most in demand by her life. Brains
weighing more than sixty ounces have
been found In idiots, and some of the
most briliiant men and women have
had very small brains when put upon
the scab*. But In all cases of great
intellectuality the depth of the convolutions
at certain places in the brain
is enormous, and the five lobes into
which each hemisphere of the brain
is divided are very distinctly marked,
affording space for much of the gray
matter.

"I actually hate to tell Jimmy about Dj
it!" declared Jimmy's mother, shiv- 1 Cj
eringly, staring at the fashionable in- j g
vitation card with despairing eyes, i K
"Yes," said Jimmy's father, with ! Dj
understanding. "Then he added, | g
"Boys certainly are the limit!" g
"Jimmy's nearly fifteen," pursued K
Jimmy's mother. "I don't see why g
he isn't old enough not to act like a g
young savage. Whenever I make him g
go to a party you would think I was j zj
casting him into a den of man eating g
tigers, to hear him protest. He says g
girls are ninnies und he'd rather play K
football!" j /j
"Seems to me," said Jimmy's fa- ; n
ther, "that I used to like to go to par- g
ties when I was fifteep. I can't under- g
stand him!" jig
"If I didn't stand over him," said lg
Jimmy's mother, "every single minute, jg
he'd get in his old clothes, with ten- jg
nts shoes and a negligee shirt, and lg
wouldn't care! It's just awful! I'm jg
sure I don't know what my friends jg
think of me. They must have the idea jg
that I don't care anything about Jim- lg
my's social progress and it's just as jg
important to a boy's future as it is to jg
a girl's! The friends that he is mak- ihi
ine now?"
"Make hini go to this," advised Jim- ?my's
father. "The Miklesons will.be
offended if you flon't, and it's the right
sort of a crowd for him. It's what he ?"
needs." ~
"I won't say anything about it to ?
hinj," decided Jimmy's mother, diplo- $
matically, "until the day before. Then ?
he won't have so long a time to ob- ?
ject and make life miserable for &
me!" ig
Jimmy's mother had occasion many ?
times in the ten days that followed to $
be thankful for this decision, for Jim- ?
my proved suddenly very difficult to ?
deal with, in spite of his ignorant^ ?'
of the fate that was impending. ;
The boy stared gloomily out of tbe ?
window and he poured as glooini'y ?
over the contents of his desk. I 1 ?

er found his sorting out his necktra ?

"Aw, nothin'!" he growled, when ete ?
demanded to know the reason fo'r g
this unheard-of interest In his attire. ?
"Can't a fellow do anything without g
the whole family buzzing aboe#yhis ?
ears? Wish't I had the money dad g
put in that dress suit of mine! I ?
don't get any use out of it! I could S

suits!" j?g
Jimmy did not ask for a second I
piece of chocolate pie when it came 1 ?
on for dessert that night, which in itself
was a serious symptom of some-1 x?
thing wrong. He scorned griddle cakes W
the next morning and he said he did
not want any lunch. 3
His mother felt his pulse, and in- j
sisted on looking at his tongue. fL
"I hope," said Jimmy's mother to I #
Jimmy's father, "that he won't do any-1 m
thing rash when I tell him about the j %
Mikleson party. He's in such a | {
dreadful humor these days that I #

go. And he's so big that I suppose he \
won't?he just won't, that's all! Oh *
dear, I wish he was a girl!"
When Jimmy caught his mother sew- J
ing a loose button on his dress coat C
she quailed. He eyed the work sus- 3
piciously, but asked no questions. B
Rather, he retired to a chair in a cor- \
ner and moped. #
Finally, the night before the party, ?
Jimmy's mother mustered up her courage
and told him, very fast, so he
could not interrupt Then she waited ?
to hear the worst
Her son was staring at her disbelievingly.
"The Mikleson party!" he v"
repeated. "Me going to the Mikle- ar

That was all before he abruptly "J:
bolted from the room. She heard him
presently whistling in his bedroom
and held her head wildly. Jimmy was ra
young to go insane, but she had heard
of cases? ai
"Mother!" Jimmy called down.
"Don't my dress trousers need press- m
ing?"
"He's going to be ill!" declared his J0
mother to his father later. "I a
know he's coming down with something
awful!" \ M
All the next day Jimmy whistled and a
sang and beamed and shed sunshine.
He went like a lamb to get dressed
for the party, and he threw away four ^
tics before he got one to suit him. I
IIo asked his mother's advice as to !. j'
