ANS ingenuity has brought forth automatic machinery almosthuman in action; there is only one piece of mechanism that sur-passes some of these achievements—the brain of mcui. Anatom-ically speaking, the tissues comprising all brains is exactlyalike, whether these belong to the most intelligent, or vice versa,and this applies with equal force back to the day of Adam. But the action of the human brmn cannot be compared tothat of the man-made machine. Two machines, or a hundred,made to perform the same work will complete their work exactlyalike, even to the ten-thousandth part of an inch. Not so withthe brain, or popularly speaking, the mind of man.
