ATTEND TO BRAIN ADV!CEOFJXPERTS Philosophers Believe in Exercise of Brain to Control Physical Body. Kew York, June 24. Just now some authoritative writers are calling attention to the brain, which they ray needs quite aa much personal attention at the body. They marvel that 11 people, Including contemporaries of their own, forget. If they ever knew, that the brain demands nourishment, rest and exercise more 'so than tho body. Again, they find that many peoTtle who feel tired are only suffering From brain fag, instead of taking bodily rest, they ought to take physical exercise to restore their normal condition so that the brain may rest. Further, these modern philosophers Inform their readers that not only Intellectual workers tire their brains, but all kinds of people who eat and drink Improperly and give no attention to the simple laws of health. All men, they find, fix their capacity for work by the way they feel, though they may not always apply themselves when they feel best, and though they Way drag themselves through it even when they feel worst. Mechanism of Brain Now, they think It quite strange that no one considers the mechanism of the brain In relation to intellectual work, and they think it stranger still that mental workers are only concerned at bodily symptoms of Impoverishment and never glvo a thought to the neglect of the brain or need of resting this organ which never rests, while its possessor Is conscious, and which Is frequently not permitted to rest, they say, because of tho neglect, and overtaxing of It. Some of the thinkers affirm the boy Is not of much consequence and that the brain of a physical entity directs all there is that is substantial, and they say the brain must be nourished and nurtured if It Is to do Its work. Dr. 8. Weir Mitchell wrote a treatise closely related to this subject In which hs says: "The man who rleeps with the stars visible above him, who wins bodily substance first hand from the earth and water, who defies the rain and sun, may drink if he likes and smoke without Injury. When a man uses his muscles, after a time he comes to a feeling; called fatigue. He Is warned by this to take a rest, but In the brain which hs Is Intensely using, he does not feel any sensation referable to the organ Itself. It is apt, like a well-bred creature, to get Into an exalted state under the stimulus of need, so Its owner feels amazed at the ease of Its processes and the sense of wlde-awakefulness and power that accompanies them. It Is only after long misuse that the brain cries out; I have done enough." Different With Brain It appears that body and brain have reversed symptoms of alarm. The body serves notice, when It is tired, that It has done all It can and any more put upon It means a break. Mhen the brain Is overloaded, or driven too long. It does double work and will not be at case when let alone. ' It seems stronger than ever, clearer and more active, after excessive hours of labor during which the stage of fatigue has been r&"cd. This Is Its method of sounding the alarm, and It may be gathered from what the commentators say In their recent discussions that It is the signal before the disaster. When the brain gets real tired It Is not to be rested, like the body, with an hour or a day of sleep. "8ome doctors," says Alfred Schofleld, "think that a man is pretty much as an engine, or rather, perhaps, a motor car, and resembles the latter In being subject to inconvenient breakdowns. "It it clear to them that the use of adequate meant a new nut or bolt or strap could effect the repair or restore the machine to health." Dr. Schorield Is skeptical about the efficacy of medicine or the ability of the physician in his professional capacity to cure the sick, though he expressei confidence in his personal aid to hit patients which comes through the employment of mind over mind In other words, the unconscious dominion of the brain; and it Is tho brain, he thinks, that cures disease and keeps the body strong. He believes it it the subconscious power of the brain that accounts for all the cures attributed to quack remedies, mystical healers and religious cults. He has written a book called "The Force of Mind," in which he comments on reCOMES A TIME
Vhn Coffee Shews What It Hat Been Doing. "Of late years coffee has disagreed with me," writes a matron from Rome, N. Y. "Its lightest punishment being to make me 'logy' and diszy, and It seemed to thicken up my blood. "The heaviest was when it upset my stomach completely, destroying my appetite and making me nervous and irritable, and sent me to my bed. After one of these attacks. In which I nearly lost my life, I concluded to quit the coffee and try Poutuni. "It went right to the spot! I found It not only a most palatable and refreshing beverage, but a food as well. "All my ailments, the 'loginesa and dizziness, the unsatisfactory condition of my blood, my nervousness and Irritability disappeared In short order and my sorely afflicted stomach began quickly to recover. I began to rebuild and have steadily continued until sow. Have a good appetite and am rejoicing in sound health which I owe to the use of Postum." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

ported miracles, in some of which he believes because he think3 he has an explanation of them, thus: Explanation of Healing "The fact is, Cue most materialistic medicine man going uses constantly with his patients, wholly unconsciously, curative influences of the mind. His very cocksuredness, his exactitude, his dogmatism and his no-nonsense manner all profoundly impress the patient. "I think it clear that faith and quack healing of all sorts could never have attained tho position they have in the leading centers of civilization and Intelligence were not the cures numerous and In very many cases genuine. "After allowing full discount for the forged and false testimonials, for purely Imaginary disease and the credulity of mankind, and even for the leaser functional disorders, there remains a large residuum that can not by any Ingenuity be explained away. "Tho greatest of the latter-day mystics was undoubtedly the Rev. Mary Baker Eddy, whose ponderous work on Christian Science Is the text book of the entire sect, numbering a million and more followers far above the average In wealth and culture, many, alas! having formerly been among the most lucrative of the physician's patients. This book Is appointed to be read by Mrs. Eddy in all her churches side by side with the Bible. "With the dogmas one need not interfere. Cures are detailed and vouched for by the healed at every meeting, and though to some judgments Christian Science contains neither Christianity nor science, as generally understood, these cures can not all be doubted or explained away. "What about LourdeB, or, if that be a center of imposition which it is and isn't what about our own faithhealing centers, uncontaminated by the least sympathy with Roman Catholic or saint worship? Mind's Power Over Body "What about cures at continental spas, with their eternal round of sulphur and baths? "What Is the one effectual agency in quack cures of all kinds, in faith cures, in relics, in charm and idol cures, in spas and water cures In doctor's cures, perhaps more than he suspects; after allowing fully for the Intrinsic quack remedy; for the mystic formulae of the millionth dilution or of purismatlc electricity; for the sulphate of soda or magnesia, and even for the value of the B. P. drugs? Ono must answer: 'It is mainly and primarily the power of the unconscious mind over the body.' " It is related of Charles Darwin that though he had infirmities of body which would have deterred most men from attempting any work, mental or physical, and which ordinarily, it is said, would have acted as a check upchanged the science of the world by his original researches. It is also said that he accomplished this by giving care to his brcin, to resting it and to keeping it employed by varying tasks that would not tire it. He wrote to a friend confiding that when he worked two hours, and then went out for a few hours and then returned It was as if a day had intervened, and then his mind was able to accomplish another day's work. Darwin wrote this poor estimate of himself: "I have no great quickness of appre hension nor wit which is so remarkable in some clever men. I am a poor critic. My power to follow a long and purely abstract train of thought is very limited, and, therefore, I could never succeed with metaphysics or matematics. My memory Is extensive, yet hazy. It suffices to make me cautious by vaguely telling me that I have observed or read something opposed to the conclusion which I am drawing, or, on the other hand, in favor of It. So poor In one sense is my memory that I've never been able to remember for more than a few days a single date or a line of poetry." The gist of the somewhat modern philosophy of some of tohse quoted and others is that the brain is not to be considered as an immaterial thing that can work and thrive without material assistance. It is supposed to need food and rest and due attention, and the body is supposed to conform to its stern demands. A YELLOW STREAK. Have you got a yellow streak?

IN JAIL Bride, Mrs. Dell Spaete, the Author, Raves. Boston, Mass., June 24. Beautiful, accomplished, and only 24 years of age, playwright and author, is a raving lunatic in a sanitarium near Boston on account of the financial misdeeds of Oscar F. Spaete, her husband which drove him to suicide in a jail cell in Detroit, Mich. Spaete, who was brought to ruin through mad attempts to secure a fortune by frenzied finance methods, drank carbolic acid in his cell, it was revealed, rather than face the consequences of his acts and because he feared he would lose his young bride, whom he married at Leicester last October. After he had left her he wrote to her upbraiding himself for the evil course into which he had fallen and protesting in extravagant terms his love. But the strain was too much and her brain gave way and she was taken to a sanitarium in Dorcheser, a part of Boston. At the sanitarium the young wife was seized with the delusion that she was responsible for her husband's misdeeds. All day long she paces up and down her room crying piteously that the police are going to arrest her. The physicians say that it is doubtful if she ever recovers. Mrs. Spaete ia the daughter of an old and aristocratic Southern family. She has traveled all over the world, speaks French, German, Italian, Spanish and Portuguese fluently. Besides being a talented writer, Mrs. Spaete is a painter and violinist. One of her plays, entitled "The Man and the Deal" will be produced in New York shortly. BRUISED FINGER NAILS. A Simple Remedy That Keeps Them From Turning Black. A young woman who was gc'ng to a debutante dinner the next evening bruised three of the finger nails of her right hand badly by catching them in a door. Visions of an unsightly band, possibly one in a sling, drove her to the telephone to get in touch with her physician. His advice was: "Get yourself a comfortable chair and an interesting book, set yourself by a stationary washstand in such a way that the fingers can be held upright under the faucet, then turn on the cold water and let it run over the bruised fingers for at least three-quarters of an hour, preferably longer. "If the water gets too cold or chills you during that time turn it off for a few minutes, but never once let the hand get out of the upright position so the blood can run into, the bruised finger and blacken." The maiden's band was unmarred for her dinner, and she was so delighted with the remedy she told it for the benefit of the guests, one at least of whom has tried this cure repeatedly since, being inclined to awkwardness and badly bruised fingers. No matter how bad the hurt, .unless the finger is mashed the throbbing will not be followed with weeks of blackened r.ni!s. Exchanee. REST AND HEALTH TO MOTHER ANO CHILD. M rs.

UNABLE TO SLEEP BOY DISAPPEARS Danville, Ind., June 24. Clifford Custer, son of Police Judge Vane Cutter and one of the best-known young men of this eity, has been missing since last Friday, and his wife and father are greatly worried over his prolonged absence. Custer is employed by the Big Four railroad at Lyons, and the last seen of him was when he left his home Friday night of last week, presumably for his work. His father says the young man has not been able to sleep for two weeks and he thinks this has something to do with his disappearance. The police of several cities in Illinois and Indiana have been requested to watch for him.
SAVED BY QUICK WIT. Clever Ruse ef a French Peasant Call ed For Conscription. Two young men of a certain French Tillage were called en; to draw for a conscription. One only was wanted to complete the number, and of the two who were to draw one was the son of a rich farmer and the other the only child of a poor widow. The farmer made friends with the official in charge of tbe ballot and promised him a handsome present if he would only prevent his son from going into the army, in order to do this the official put into the urn two black balls instead of one black and one white. When the young men came be said: "There are two balls, one black and one white, in the urn. He who draws the black one must serve. Your turn Is first," pointing to the widow's son. The latter, suspecting that all was not fair, drew one of the balls from the urn and immediately swallowed it without even looking at it. "Why have you done that?" asked the official. "How are we to know whether you have drawn a black or white ball?" "Oh. that's very simple, was the reply. "Let the other man now draw. If I have the black he must necessarily draw the white one." There was no help for it, and the farmer's son. putting his hand Into tbe urn, drew the remaining ball, which, to the satisfaction of the spectators, was a black one. A Changed Hope. "I haven't recently beard yon expressing the hope that your rich old uncle might shuffle off." "No. He married a young woman not long ago. and I'm busy hoping be may live forever.

RESULTS OF DIET
Authorities Disagree Whether to Eat or Not. New York, June 24.. Shortly after the steamship San ' Anna sailed away for Naples and Marseilles, with Dr. 'Woods Hutchinson the writer. Dr. Amos T. Jennings, also a writer on medical subjects for lay reading, visited the ship news office at the Battery and opened fire upon the note the reporters had brough in from Dr. Hutchinson. The subject was "How to Become Tain by Frequent and Excessive Eating." A French scientist recently gave to the world his formula for reducing weight by the five-meals-a-day treatment, and a copy of it was shown to Dr. Hutchinson. He agreed. with the French physician, saying: "The more often one eats the more one keeps his stomach amused, and less actual substance is imbibed by the system. The man who keeps pieceing all day long actually eats less in proportion to his bodily weight than a man who eats three times a day and gorges. A well known Austrian physician conducted experiments for one week with four sett of men. One flroup got two meals a day, another three, another four and another five. He found in the end that the men of two meals thrived better and actually ate more than those of the other three groups. When the Hutchinson interview was straightened out, despite the arguments of Dr. Jenkins, the latter was asked for proof of his assertion that frequent eating during the day would not reduce flesh. "Well, gentlement," replied Dr. Jenkin's. "My proof is the average chef. Look at him. He Is nibbling all day long, and he is about as fat and sleek and husky as any man alive." Wanted Barber at H. H.
