CRIME CAUSED BY A “BUMP.

WHERE MAN KEEPS HIS MORAL SENSE.

Is one of the most baffling problems confronting medical science, from the time of Hippocrats to the present day, about to be solved?

Doctors all over the U.S.A., are keenly interested in Dr. William Browning's reasoned conclusion that the moral contra is in the right frontal lobe of the brain, and not in one of the glands.

Dr. Browning's sensational final con- clusions, which occupy four and a half pages in the place of honour in the Medical Record," open now and won- derful. prospects for the care of many types of criminals and sufferers whose icmoral activities do not bring them within the arm of the law.

Dr. Browning cites ton consecutive eases from a number of known observers in which injuries in the right frontal region of the brain, of a character that' involved some portion of the frontal lobe, were followed by a number of in- moral, anti-social, and criminal acts.

Hiselinical conclusions med up as follows;=,

"There is a limited region in the brain that nats as controller of the individual's morals.

"This centre is in one hemisphere, situated wholly in one frontal lobe.

"It is always on the so-called silent or recessive side, that is, in the right frontal lobe if the person is right-hand ed, and vice versa

"Destruction or impairment of this centre leaves the individual morally un- guided.

"As loss of the moral qualities, can

occur without loss of the intellectual, it

can be concluded that the latter are. centred elsewhere in the cerebrum.

This, he odds, ́ ́ 19, far as knowo, the first considerable attempt to give an independent status to the right or in- active cerebral hemisphere."-Express.

Death occurred after Wanless had taken his 10th snake-bite. The fast snake Wed. 16 he chose was the deadly South African

green mamba," aid to be by experts Thur even deadlier than the Indian "kriat that killed Professor Fox. Young Tom Morrisey, allowed himself to be hitten on the arm at 8 o'clock on a Saturday night. At 4 o'clock the following morn- ing he developed bad symptoms, retching: blood. At 10 o'clock he had a look at himself in the mirror and calmly re- marked "The Green Mamba wins." He lingered on till the next day, and died a martyr to his business, (curing snake bite): All Australians in Durban follows: ed Young Tom to his last resting place as he was a great favourite, his gameness attracting attention.

The green mamba is the deadliest of Bouth African snakes. Its bite hae been known to kill a dog in 65 seconds. Mr. Meckin relates of Morrisey: "He took two bites previously from this same Green Mamba that brought about bis death. His health was good, and the suake "did not even make him sick on the stomach, which is nearly always the case with snakebite.

When the Sunday Times published. 18 months ago, an illustrated story of Wan Jess' adventures, the professor"

had already submitted himself to over 400 venomous bites. Of these, 127 were from tiger snakes, 100 from black makes and 11 from death-adders.

Wanless was taught his game by old Jim Morris His parents died when he was young, and at six years of age he was picked up on a bush track by old Jim, who to allinterta_und_purposes adopted him...

He induced me to study snakes," sxid Wanless, and in that work wo were inseparable If he got a bite, I got a bite."

At the age of 79 Old Jim Mcrrisey was then still going strong.

SPOONERISMS,

Dr. W. A. Spooner, from whose name the word "spoonerism" is derived, cele- brated his 77th birthday recently. Most people have heard of him as the per- petrator of some humorous verbal blund- ers rather than aa Warden of New College, Oxford.

The story of his search for the "Dull Man

·11 at Greenwich instead of the "Green Man" at Dulwich is known the world over, and such transpositions the "shoving leppard" for the "loving shepherd," and his statement that he mat indiantly return from London to Oxford by the town drain (down" train) are clasnica.

Dr. Spooner modestly denied the father- hood of most of these jokes, and protested that one of the few spoonerisms he could remember making was his perver sion of the first line of the well-known
