ACCORDING to the Medical Record. Or. Louis
Jobert has published work on the cause and
frequency of left-handedness. No purely left
handed race has ever been discovered.
although there seems to be n difference in diff
ferent RIDES. Seventy per cent. of the inhab
itants of the Puniaub use the left hand NV
preference, and the greater number OF the
Hottentots and Bushmen of South Africa also
use the left hand in preference to the right.
DR.. Mario, as a result Of his study of criIni-
mails, has found that from II to % per cent. OF
those who have been convicted of crime were

THE writer in the Milling World gives some
statistics with regard to the great wall of
China. He states that the great pyramid
has 100000 cubic feet, the great wall of
China $3.50, 000,0 cubic feet. An engineer
in seward party there some years ago gave
IL as his opinion that the cost of this wall
figuring labor at the same rate, would more
than equal that of all the 100000 miles Of rail
road in the United States. The material il
contains would build a Wall six feet high
ana two feet thick right straight around tho
globe. Yet this was done in only twenty
years without trace of debt or bond. II "a
the greatest individual labor the world has
ever known.
