HANDED DOWN FROM PAST Queer Legacies That Remain to Ro mind Mankind of Hit Savage Ancestors. Run your forefinger round the rim of each ear. You are almost sure to find in one of them, and quite possibly iu both, a tiny hard lump. It is only a relic of the days when, innumerable hundreds of centuries ago, man was only one of the animals of the wild, and had a pointed ear, like a wolf's or dog's. What good is the little furrow that runs down from the nose to the middle of the upper lip? None. But it, too, has a history. It is a legacy from the time when the human upper lip was in two parts—a hare-lip, like that of the rat tribe. The split has healed up long ago, but the new skin is so recent in the history of the race that hair refuses to grow on that furrow, a writer in the Philadelphia North American observes. When a fly settles on you any'dt ere can you serenely twitch that patch of sk'n and shake him off? Probably not; but once these old skin muscles, now almost dead after centuries of clothes wearing, were as active as those of a horse. Asew —a very few people—can twitch their ears like a dog, and do so instinctively when startled, and cases do occasionally occur in which the scalp can be moved at will. In one very interesting case mentioned in medical books the man could hurl books a couple of yards rfway simply by twitching the muscles on the top of his head. But, generally speaking, our skin muscles are even more dead nowadays than our ear muscles. We’ve neglected them The only set still in use are those we employ when we want to raise our eyebrows. The appendix Is another thing we could do quite well without. It is a relic from old vegetarian days. It has been workless ever since mankind started meat eating and is apt to get in the way. The large intestine, too, is a thing we really don’t need nowadays. The many coils of this long tube are kind to the doctors, but are quite unnecessary, now mankind has become a flesh-eating animal, and merely provide a resting place for germs. We don t really need to carry a great intestine about with us. Another thing we don’t need much nowadays is the instinct to walk on hands and feet together. You think walking upright the only natural way for man? It isn’t. If ever you have to make your way along some narrow plank or some narrow, dizzy mountain ledge, you will find the old instinct strong in you.

Why is It? A man in an uptown side street saw what he thought was a cheap glass brooch lying in the gutter. He was not interested in cut glass so did not pick it up. Another man who was watching the actions of the first man picked up the pin and later tried to sell it for 50 cents. He tried in vain, notwithstanding, as this has recently become a cc.d, unfeeling world; and if, beca.use of the war taxes, folks will not pay 90 cents for a perfectly good dollar bill, recently offered at that price, it is altogether unreasonable to expect them to pay 50 cents for a supposedly glass pin. The bargain sale was thus an utter failure. Subsequently the “glass” jewels, strange to say, turned out to bo diamonds and rubies worth SSOO. If it is so difficult to distinguish between a 50-cent and a SSOO bauble, wherein lies the advantage of having the expensive gem? Incidentally and curiously, the finder of the pin, who took a chance, was arrested. The query obtrudes itself, what for? —New York Sun. Cossacks’ Terrible Attack. The Russian Cossacks owe their success mainly to a form of attack which is peculiarly their own. It is known as the lava. Cossack horses are specially trained to carry out the maneuver. The leading sotnia (squadron) spreads out to right and left, and the others, at full speed, form up on each side of it in a semicircle or half moon. Every man with a lance is attended by a man wearing a sword, and al! the officers are in front of the men of each sotnia. The other squadrons do not wait for a special order, but at once adopt the same formation, en-Llei-voring to surround the enemy from an >tlier side. With loud shouts reminiscent of the Indian warwhoop, the Cossacks rush down on the foe, and even though the first assault be repulsed, another lava pours down on the shaken erfemy. This system of attack takes its name, of course, from the liquid products of volcanic activity. New Fossil Bed.

Near Fargo, -N. D., a bed of marine fossils has been uncovered Scientists find evidence in the deposit to support the theory now and then advanced that the Dakotas at one time formed the bed of a great sea The discovery was made by W. T. Stanton, paleontologist with the United States geological survey, and by him as well as by others is looked upon as putting an end to further debate on the subject. The presence of the fossil formations can be accounted for only on the basis that at one time water covered the area to a considerable depth. Vigilance Prevents Forest Fires. The Boise national forest in Idaho had 30 fires during the past summer, yet 28 were held down to less than ten acres and cf these 15 were 1< s than one-quarter of an acre The - up»rvisor says this success was due ■> a lookout tower and to efficient eohone and Uelioarabh service.

TIME’S CHANGES IN ATCHISON City’s Parlor Walls Form a Complete, Comprehensive History of Art, Fully Illustrated. In a town the si*** Atchison it Is not necessary to join an art study class to team the history of art: it 18 written on the walls of the houses In the town. When an engraving of ’’Washington Crossing the Delaware hangs on the wail, and a chromo of a woman with a shawl over her head stares over her left shoulder as though she were making a wish on the new moon, the house is ruled from kitchen to parlor by "mother,” and she Is between sixty and seventy years of age, and believes In the "old masters." When Madonnas holding fat babies nre on the parlor walls, and highly thin women In red robes tooting, bright yellow horns which they hold to their mouths with wooden lingers, the lady of the house adores sacred art and knows how to pronounce Fra Angelica, Bondenhousen, Raphael and the rest. When there Is a picture on the wall of a weak-looking boy hanging on the neck of a motherly looking woman, while father and children look on, visitors at the house recognize the art that was born during the Chicago world's fair, and when “Breaking Home Ties” became the rage. A little later period in the art history of the town is represented by pictures on the parlor walls of a fine, healthy looking young man wearing a monk's habit with the cowl slipping off from his thick hair. People posted in "art” know that is a picture of Hosea. When there are pen-and-ink sketches of square-jawed men and tall, bony young women in very low-neck eve ning dresses the rage of Gibson pic tares (now about extinct) is repre sented. When there are water-color pictures of girls with pink cheeks, lips puck ered up as though rc ?.dy to be kissed and colored pictures of a chubby little girl, under which is written * Inno cence,” with a scattering of funny pic tures of gayly colored English ladies and gentlemen climbing in and out of busses, “modem art ’ is displayed and the presiding genius cf the house is a bride, and those pictures were wedding gifts.—Atchison Globe.

Animal Actors. The impression is created 'ey an oc casional moving picture cf wild anlmai life that the beasts, i;: order to force ,them into posts for the camera, are cruelly treated. Nothing, however, h is said, is farther from the truth Careful investigation h-.’s shown tiiat force is seldom employed and wher ever it has been v-?d tb.o film result ing has been unsatisfactory. Ernes; A. Dench, a London n.-L.iralist, whe has made an exteo.-L * invcssigatior of this phase of the movie industry. ; declares that t'cc dumb ac’o’-s are 1 given every consider?, it-n The thrill: ■ experienced by the s, etator are the . result, in a majority cf instances, ol : the very Innocent expedient of placing a piece of meat at a strategic pioint The animal leaps for it and the ?:>r nt;' tegraph records every niot'on of the leap. The spectator, of course, sr-“-nothing of the un .-t and cor.rl'jdes that cruelty alone could pro-luce thpicture thrown cn the 'screen. 'The animals,” he concludes, ''really hare a much easier time than the e that ap ; pear in trick acts >.n .lie stage." Woman Puts Him Wire. “You talk about and breakfast jackets and curl papers,’ sai’d the man, hanging over th : rniline of one of the bridges across th; hrhi’.e path in Central park, “but I <l.: anj woman to look worse than most ci l;et sex do on horseback. And it's all cu account of that hideous fashion ol hairdressing. What woman is attrac tive with her hair braided into a tight wiry braid and turned under or up or. top with a string of ribbon, the whole topped by a mannish derby?” His companion, a woman, laughed “Siu pid, don’t you know they can’t pos sibly keep their hair up in any othe: way? The jolting of the horse loosens the coils and one by one the hairpins are strewn along the path until ths hair is all tumbled down. Would you rather see a bevy of March winds ot Dianas let loose in the park?” “They’d be prettier and you’d tell a man from a woman without straining your eyes at least,” said he.—New York Tinies. Protecting Wild Beasts. Protected refuges where the denizens of the wild may dwell and multiply are rapidly increasing in number The Rockefeller Foundation has purchased a tract of 85,000 acres in I cuisiana and placed it under the direction of state authorities. The state already controls a refuge with an area of 13,. 000 aci-es, and Mrs. Russell Mage bought and donated Marsh Islam! for the same purpose. In Michigan, it Is planned to set aside 200.000 acres as -j refuge, while Ohio expects to dedicate 24,000 acres to the service Illinois is preparing to extend its pro. tested area by new purchases, and in other states of the middle West and the South similar projects are on foot. To Prevent Saw Edges on Collars. It is well known that the modern mechanical laundry methods are veiy hard on linen, and cellars or cuffs soon have a rough edge which irritates the skin, even though the roughness is scarcely visible to the eye. This can be avoided by running ovfe" the edge a small rod having a suitable . groove near one end, so as to flatten down the rough edge. A neat Pa-'s device embodies this idea and also aaother useful one, for the pointed end of the rod serves as a buttonhole ODener.

ROCK OF MOSES DISCOVERED Archeologist of Repute Makes the Assertion—lsraelitish Relics Now in Turkish Hands. , The rock that Moses smote in the wilderness has been found, and the camp of the Israelites definitely located. Such is the substance a ! long statement made by Dr. ( -'!■ co- i burn, archeologist to the Worlds Bi . ble conference, at Baltimore. Doctor Coburn told the story of the ( passage by a party, of which lie was a member, through Kadesh Borneo, the oasis near which the Israelites encamped for 37 years, and where Moses ■ gave his celebrated laws After de ( scribing the historic rock from which • water flowed, Doctor Coburn said he had also found evidences of agricul-| tural pursuits, which disproves conclusively the assertion of skeptics that Moses gave no agricultural legislation. Doctor Coburn told of the inaccessibility of the valuable relics of primitive Israelite civilization, now care fully guarded in the Mosque of Omar, ar.d cf the mummy cf Joseph, of which no Christian is allowed to obtain a glimpse. Aiding the Farmer. The Kansas Agricultural college believes that farmers have higher aspirations than raising prize steers, and a department of rural service has been formed to organize community welfare clubs, social centers, literary societies; co-operate with the state board cf health on rural health problems; conduct social surveys in lura! communities; address religious conferences; ' promote musical organizations; address farmers’ institutes; conduct rural chauizuguas; write articles r.nd pampl L’s cn rural life problems and correspond with persons interested in rural s . vice. The rural education division v. ill supervise boys’ agricultural clubs and contests; girls' garden bread carr.ing and other contests. boys and girls study clubs for the tc'iooi year; c . line supplementary scl.ol study of agricultural and domestic science; supervise field work in promoting vocational education and revitalize rural villages and schools; plan and conduct boys’ camps; promote proper athletic relations in rural communities; address teachers’ associations, school officers’ meetings, chautauquas; attend farmers' meet-1 ings and conduct two day classes in vocational subjects for rural teachers. A Money-Maker Always. Mr. Herbert Coray tells in Tit-Bits that lie once went to a dinner where Andrew Carnegie was a guest “After the eating was over and the speech-making had started,” said Mr. Corey, “Mr. Carnegie reached into his pocket for something and pulled out a handful of small change. A shilling got away from him and fell on the floor, and at the first chance Mr. Carnegie got down under the table and looked for it.” “Did he find it?" asked one of tha audience to whom Mr. Corey was narrating the incident. “Did he find it?” echoed Mr. Corey. “He found half a crown!" Lots of Others Like Him. After the outbreak of the foot-and-mouth disease in Delaware county a Muncie man said to a member of the city health board, “I know of a man in MunCie that has that same disease." “Who is he? Who is he?” asked Dr. Herman Bowles. "Why, he is a feller that has a running off at the mouth, every so often and when he gets it, his feet won’t track," was the reply.-lndlauapolis News. His Experience. Gomer Davies notes that a certain motor car “will held the road at 50 miles an hour,” according to the advertisements. “That’s nothing," snor ts Mr Davies. “I’ve driven up behind fellows who were driving a team of old plug mules that held the road at a whole jot less than five miles an hour. —Kansas City Star.
