The First Man . Black Man

The primitive prcadamite man, ac-
cording to Prof. Winchell, lived in a
country lying between the present
African and Asiatic continents, and
thence hc dispersed himself over the
earth. He was essentially q black
man, as distinguished from tho white
man; not an African negro, but ol
dark leathern skin, like the native
Australian races. The native Austria
liam is inferior in structure and intel
lieence to the African negro; lie ialli
as far below the white man, and !,
more nearly related TO the primitive
than any other race. The black races
now in existence are the Hottentots
the negroes, the Australians AM
Papuaus, the latter Of whom are bark
skinned and almost black, occupying
New Guinea and some smaller islsnd
north Of Australia. ayN s .ii2a
Primitive man also gave birth to th
brown races. These are now foun'
| in the islands Of the Pacific. and Q
them the Sandwich islanders at
specimens. They crossed to n

given, not many months since, by an
old man, with several millions. '
He was in the habit Of prowling a

morning as he was investigating. no
happened to come across the dinner
pail Of tho office boy. His curiosity

of home made bread, two doughnuts
and piece OF apple-pie tempted the
millionaire's appetite. lie became I
boy again, and the dinnerpail seemed

Just then the ofiice-boy came il

Don't Worry Yourself.

To regain or recover health, persons
sl,ould be relieved from anxiety con-
corning diseases. Tho mind has pow
er over tho body. For u person to
think he has disease will often pro.
ducc that disease. This We SEQ ef-
tected when the mind 10 intensely
concentrated upon the disease Of
another. Ii Is found in tho hospital,
that surgeons and physicians who
make speciality Of certain diseases
are liable to die OF them; and the
mental power Is so great that some
times people die OF diseases which
they only have in Imagination. We
have seen person seasick, IN anilci'
patton Of a voyage before reaching
tho vessel. We have known apcr'
TO die of cancer In the stomach whcl
he had no cancer or any other morta
disease. A blindfolded man. slighil,
pricked III the arm, has fainted ant
died from believing that he wa'
bleeding to death. Therefore wei
persons to remain well, should bt
cheerful and happy; and sick por
sons should have their attention
drawn as much as possible from
themselves, It Is by their faith tina
men are saved, and II is BY thcir faitl
that men die. lfhe will not to die
le can often live in spite Of disease
aud If he hasli or no attaclimeh

Their bodies have no lifc Of them
