DISPUTE OVER USE OF CAVES Scientists Disagree as to Whether They Were Habitations or Tombs : of Primitive Race. -~ - Curious ‘caves in the Matsuyama hills, in the province of Saitama, near Tokyo, Japan, are believed by some to have been the homes of an ancient race called the Tuschiguma, or Earth Spiders, ‘who lived long before the ancient Ainos. Others think them to be tombs, while many are convinced that they are merely shelters used by the primitive tribe when pursued by enemies, “

~ The caves are all on the southern slope of the hills, and command an extended view of a fertile valley. This strategic position argues for those who believe the caves to have been ‘habitations and not tombs. About 200 of them have been unearthed. =Seen from a distance they resemble a huge swalow bank. They are so close together that the inner walls almost touch, and are entered through a narrow, long; low passageway—so low in fact that a man cannot stand upright in the largest one. Each room is about Six by nine feet in size: the ceiling Is domed, and along the side is a ledge raised about nine inches from the ground. This was doubtless covered with:leaves, and used as & bed. No tools, weapons or household articles have been unearthed and there. are no drawings on the walls, nor any sign of a pathway outsile. The only light comes from the passageway. The caves are practically unknown and unvisited, except by a few scholars.

f REASON FOR COLORED EGGS }_Mo'ther Nature Painted Them That ° They Might Be Preserved Fromt .~ Their Natural Enemies, . - Nature equips all llving things with protection of some kind against their enemies, T » The larger animals- are able, by reason of ‘their strength, to give a good account of themselves in combat. Birds and many of the smaller animals depend upon the rapidity of their movements. But there is another effective means of self-preservation known as “protective coloration.” ~ Snakes and many varieties of fish form ‘an excellent iHustration. Their scales are so colored that they blend with the surrounding rocks or the shadows iof the water, maxing them almost Invisible to the eye. In fact, it is only when one of these protective-ly-colored animals moves that its presence is apparent. . | ;

The same principle is responsible for the different colors of birds’ eggs. The mother bird is unable to fight aggressively, so she has to seek refuge in flight. During the ‘time she is away from the nest, either seeking safety from her enemies or looking for food, the eggs must be protected in some manner, It is for this reason that they are colored to blend with the surroudings in which ‘' they are laid—some of them spotted because they are laid in the sand or among pebbles, others buff-colored or green to match the material of the nest.

. Petuliarity of Dreams. A curious hint is gilven by dreams of things which are impossible subJects, it would seem, of thought. I hardly know how to tell my ‘meaning, but fellow dreamers will be able to interpret by their own experience. We have dreamed something, it was clear, the impression lingers when we wake. But it is not reducible to terms of thought, much less words. We have no grasp on it as an image or a sensation, yet in some remote cormer of ourself we know perfectly what it was. It is not a matter of having forgotten—the thing is inexpressible to others or-ourself. Only itself knows what it was, and itself is buried away gomewhere within us. When vainly trying to master the conception of the fourth dimension we are reminded of thosg dreams.—Exchange. ' ;

Pemaquid, 1607, . : . In this time of commemorating the Pilgrims, the people of Pemaguid, Maine, rise to remind the world that a colony of English settlers landed at Pemaquid about fourteen years before the little company that ecrossed on the Mayflower debarked at Plymouth. Pemaquid had developed into juite a trading colony before the Plymouth settlers managed to gain a foothold in the new .country, and the Maine settlers provided the Pilgrims with a large quantity of food, accordIng to the records, when appealed to 3y Governor Bradford. At Pemaquid may still be séen the remains of a fort that was erected in 1690 at a cost of £20,000, which was two-thirds of the entire appropriation of Massachusetts, which .then included Maine, for that year. - ; e

' The Man‘With the Toe. Here is an extract from an article n the Geographical Magazine, in which the writer describes the labori-. yus culture of rice on hillsides in the Yangtze valley: L " “The roily water makes the hoeing, »f his rice field impossible; so he does! 2ot boe it, he toes it. With bare foot he feels about the plant with his toes, and if he finds a weed, he toes it out; ’hen presses the dirt firmly in place i;gain. - With his right foot he toes IWo rows, with his left foot he toes four rows as he goes, That’s the }way Behops’ . a 0 e 2
