Thsword "Brain," is of modern origin., and does not occur in thé Bible. The he*son is that during the eehturies" the ' Bible was being written no one suspected that this silent and secluded organ had anything anything to do with thought or feeling. Tn those days it wais considered sacriligious to dissect the human body ; neverthelesis, it Was subjected subjected in rare instances, to the scalpel, and the existence of the brain, though they knew not its functions, was wefjl known. ■ - With the Hebrew®, the heart was the chief seat of the soul, while the mind wa® supposed to he located in the kidneys, and all of the ■ tender emotions Were- assigned to the bowels. When -Jeremiah denounced hypocrites, hypocrites, he said of them they had the Lord in their mouths, but not in their kidneys ; and the Psalmist says that "His reins (kidneys) in "Fniit-a-tim" Kwps Young And Old - In Splendid «tilth ; ? are Ik-- Heard on the Train.

Hence, we even find in English speech to-day the use of the expression expression "Two fellow's of the same kidney." All this sounds strange to modern modern ears, but it was the microscope that drove animal spirits out of the body. In 1833 it was applied by Ehrn berg, who was the first to discover discover the nerve cell in the spinal ganglion. But Dr. Paul Broca, in 1861, was the first to definitely locate locate in the Brain, a particular locality locality on the cortex for articulate speech. This he located in the lower and posterior convolution called the - Third Front all, _ now known as "Broca's Convolution." This was no mare unverified scientific theory, but the fact wa® actually demonstrated by injury in that part of the brain, and consequent consequent loss of speech from paralysis. paralysis. Verily, it. would •seem from this, that the 'Phrenologists' had some foundation-for. their "bump- ology," only they did not locate the' speech faculty, in Broca's territory, but inside the eyes. •' They were possibly, correct in holding that the different faculties of the mind. We now know tihât 'twio -othier. ede- • mènts of simply butfhan speech have each their distinct and separate brain localities--mine plane devoted to receiving words' through thei ear, damage to which is called word- dieafneiss, though met deaf otherwise; otherwise; and also ' a distinct place in the brain for- words received through the! eye, as in .reading, damage, to which causes the unfortunate. unfortunate. victim to beicome wholly illiterate, though be may see and recognize .all other objects of sight as perfectly a®. ever. It has been fourid that each of the five special senisss ba® it® ama- tomical seat- in particular portions of the brain respectively, and centrally centrally located are to be found the ■seats ' which control thé voluhti/ry mipvemrents of every mîiscié, etc. Of course, this is all in the outer layer of the brain, or cortex--gray matter. But a.still more .astounding discovery discovery tha® been made in Brain- ology. While tihisi anatomical .sieia.ts of the senses are found in both hCmispherea of the brain, . and their • function s lane congenital, thaib is from birth, the seats of the faculty" faculty" of speech are. found only in one of the two hemisphere®. Hence, if . these- are damaged after middle life, the loss is irremediable., irremediable., and the unfortunate victim victim can never speak again, though the - corresponding spot in the other hemisphere he left intact. Another strange and remarkable feature has been discovered, viz. : that this endowment of the one hemisphere of the brain is not congenital, congenital, "or because of its superiority superiority over the other, but because it was the hemisphere that related to the most used hand of the. child. In all ■ right handed persons it is in the left brain that the. speech centires centires are located, and vice versa with left handed person® . This demonstrates that brain matter does not originate speech, for otherwise both hemispheres would have their respective speech centres. Either . hemisphere -is equally good for speech providing the hand dexterity, right or left, begins early enough in life to use it for. that purpose. It follows that self-education begins begins largely with the" stretching forth of the hand, and is quite distinct distinct from the elementary functions of sensation and motion, which are congenital. . Our ability to know and to recognize recognize what particular objects mean,, and what our senses report, is not congenital, but is acquired by us, in the sarnie way as speech is acquired. It has been diocovered that in the visual space, or area, is- a place which if damaged, renders the person person unab le to, recognize members of his own family though he can plainly see- them-; The same is true it a certain spot die" injured in the brain corresponding to hearing : the person is. unable to distinguish between the report of a gun and the bark of a dog. He hea.rs a noise only, and to him they are all alike. Denver, April 29, 1915. V. W. HAMMOND Esq.

I cannot say too much in their favor. We have used-them in the family for about two years and we would not use anything else as long as we can get "Fruit-a-tives".

These boots were worn by our soldiers on active service both in this country- and in the training camps in England. They were subjected subjected to the most Severe usage that boots could be subjected to. They travelled over rough roads and smooth. They Waded through, mud and through slush past all description. They were soaked by the never-ceasing rains of an abnormally wet English winter. They •were baked on hot stoves, grilled On steam radiators and roasted before open fires. Yet, THEY STOOD THE TEST. Out of the entire 32,217 pairs of leather boots supplied by. this; company only a single pair was shown to be open to criticism when the• Government enquiry was made six months later. - ' Experts employed by the Government exam- ine(J 1365 pairs and 348 odd boots made by various manufacturers. Among the number were found only, seven pairs of boots of Ames Holden 'McCready manufacture, of which five . were found to be repairable, one pair unrepairable, unrepairable, and ONE PAIR HAD A SOLE UNDER GAUGE. • The best proof of the durability and service- ^ ability of f " the Ames Holden McCready boots, however, was afforded by- the -hworn statements statements of soldiers who had worn these boots r constantly from the-time they wete-'issued Tn September, 1914, right through to March, 1915.

A - ■_ The testimony of these witnesses hàs sincë been amply corroborated by numerous reports and letters received from officers and soldiers at the front all testifying to the. good wearing qualities of the Ames Holden McCready boots. When the question was raised concerning the quality of .'the Canadian soldiers' boots, Ames Holden McCready Limited placed themselves themselves IMMEDIATELY upon record, by writing to the. Government, as desirous of having the most thorough investigation of the matter. The appointment of a Parliamentary Committee and the official enquiry: followed. It occupied several several weeks' time. The Committee stopped at nothing in their efforts to get at all the facts. • This Company purchased the best leather and supplies available in Canada and spared no expense in manufacturing the boots. All our invoices, and shop and manufacturing records were produced before thè Parliamentary. Committee Committee for their inspection and information. We had nothing to hide and were proud of the -boots which were furnished to the Government. THE AMES HOLDEN McCREADY BOOTS CAME OUT OF THE ORDEAL UNSCATHED. The Committee reported to Parliament that the boots supplied by this company substantially substantially complied with the sample, that no paper or other, fraudulent substances had been employed employed in their manufacture and that all charges involving the integrity of this company or of the boots supplied by them had been abundantly disproven by the sworn evidence taken before the Committee. The report, which was adopted by Parliament, Parliament, was A COMPLETE VINDICATION FOR AMES HOLDEN McCREADY LIMITED. In bringing these facts prominently before the people of the Dominion, Ames Holden McCready Limited are actuated by the desire not only to protect their own good name -- "which needs no vindication with the thousands of Canadians who" are familiar with this company company and its products -- but also that of a notable and important Canadian - 'industry, which, has been unwarrantably afcperfeed.
