----------~ EARLY TRACES OF MAN.
He Existed In Denmark and Scandi- navia Seven Thousand Years

He Existed In Denmark and Scandi-
 navIa Seven Thousand Years
 Ago.
 When was man first placed on earth? No one can answer that question. Hugh Miller says that mans habit of burying his dead out of sight makes it very easy to be mistaken on that point; for, because of burial, men $ bones may be found among the ami mals that have lain in the earth for ages. There IS one thing. however, that gives us an inklins of when he came. Certain tools, that only man could have made. have been found buried in caves. in peat beds, and in the bottom of lakes Often these are covered by layers of rock; and, by calculating how long 1t took to make the layers, a guess can be made as to when the tools were put there. Still. 1t Is only guess, and no one pretends to regard the question as settled, be- cause under some conditions the lay CTS would be made much faster than under others But the bones oi certain animals, the mammoth and other great creatures of that time. which have long since died. have been found with these tools. writes Theresa Crof- ton iii St. Nicholus By calculating in what ages these animals lived, and how long 1t takes race of animals 0 die out, surer result can be arrived ut. In cave in England. buried un. der limestone layer from one to fif- teen inches thick, tools have been found mingled with tho bones of ele- plants, tigers, rhinoceroses, and hyenas, which roamed over that country thousands and thousands of years ago. The peat hogs of what is now Denmark and Scandinavia are filled with stone tools. Some have been found in beds of gravel, underly- ing peat which is certainly ' 900 years old. This seems to show that man must have dwelt on earth at least as many years ago.

 HOW THE TURKS SMOKE.
Gen. Lew Wallace Chats About Eat Ing and Smoking Of the Ortentals.

Gen. Lew Wallace Chats About Eat An enthusiast on the subject of fine tobacco is Gen. Lew Wallace. the au. h. or of Ben Hur" and ex- Minister to Turkey. A Mail md Expressman not long ago had chat with him about tobacco and the kind the Orientals smoked. He said:
 "The Turks smoke the purest tobac- co, generally in the form of cigarettes They get their cigarettesfrom smyrna. The cigarette paper IS not doctored | with creosote, and the tobacco k pure and sweet. They have knack of us- ing tobacco in the Orient which IS yet has not been learned in this country Nearly everybody smokes inTurkey. The women of the harem arc inveter. ate cigarette smokers, and they do not seem to grow less beautiful from the use of the weed They. have also n pipe called the nargileh, which Is n large bowl with many tubes 10 1t. A number of women sit around and smoke and gossip.
 They do not have any quilting parties, as the women in this country, and so much of their smal talk is done around the nargileh. In the cafes the customers smoke, and, in fact, an entertainment of any kind would be incomplete without the soothing chi, bouque. The deleterious effect of tobacco Is not noticeable in Turkey. confess lcannot smoke the cigarettes made ln this country
 Are the Turks great eaters?"
 They live well. Nearly all of them have French cooks, especially the wealthy who live in cities. Some ot the dishes cooked by native Turks are very palatable. I once ate a regular Turkish dinner and enjoyed it very much, Many of the dishes had m- prounceable names and were mixed, but they were peculiarly seductive to taste. Other dishes. of course, were not so pleasant to the palate"

e~~sa AOuAeSa There is an upper chamber, Whore oft the soul repairS And to its lofty portals
 Ascend the golden stairs That ancient, mystic ladder,
 Whose rungs are numbered seven. On earth the lowest resting.
 The topmost reaching heaven. From out its jasper windows,
 The soul looks of afar. And penetrates the inmost
 Of many a distant star; Those stars whose radiant beauty
 Will make the bosom swell, Yet of their differing glory,
 No words can iitly tell Its walls of stones most precious
 Shut out all woes and tears, While, rapt, the soul Is listening
 To music of the spheres. Those strains of thrilling concord,
 Where love and wisdom blend With hope and faith .n anthems
 of joy that never end. 'Tis in this upper chamber
 That strength is ever found, And power to conquer daily
 The wrestling hosts around; And there the soul finds, waiting,
 Peace with her soit embrace, For through it's crystal ceiling
 It sees God face to iace.

How to Draw Nails npa spiks.

When nail or spike has been driven into live tree or into timber after year or more the fibers of the wood will have contracted so tightly about the metal that 1t will be exceed ingly difficult to withdraw the iron. But strike nail or spike a sharp blow with hammer and dive it in trife so as to break the wood fbers around the metal and nail can be withdrawn with only a little force. Iron gate hinges are frequently driven into a living tree. When one Is not in pos session of large and strong claw-bar boro IA hole close to the hinge on the under side, and the hinge can be easily crowded down into the hole and with drawn. When large nail has been driven head and all beyond the surface of the timber bore hole close to the nail and with nail-set crowd the nail into the hole. When nails have be- come rusty they will usually break in two leaving a portion of the iron in the timber. But strike rusty nail a sharp blow and one can sometimes withdraw it with his fingers. In tear ing down Nh old building if it is desirable to take of the boards or castings without splitting them. place . nail-set on the head of each nail and with "a hammer start it inward about an eighth of m inch. One blow will break the hold of the nail so that most of the nails will come out when the boards are driven of. .--Agricultsirist.

Silos for Poor Men


 The silo is pre-eminently the thing for the poor man. notwithstanding the fact that many writers claim ensilage cannot be put up without great expen. allure of money for silo and machin- cry. Farm and Home has repeatedly given plans for cheaply building silos That ensilage can be put in whole to keep perfectly and feed out econmical- ly has been abundantly proved true by dozens of good farmers in this country and Europe. With no need of buying machinery or hiring or waiting for extry help or expense of costly silo every farmer who keeps dozen head of stock ought to store and feed ensil- age. In making a pit for whole ensil- age one little improvement is sug- gested that will lighton the labor of filling if it be deep one. To hoist whole corn over the top and lower it to the bottom is needless waste of time and strength. One should be able to take 1t direct from the wagon on level to where 1t is to be packed. there to place it at once heads and points to avoid further handling. To make this possible door must be left in the wall of the silo from the top to the bottom, the same as in an ice- house. This door should be toward the stock that are to be fed. If the silo extend through the upper floor it will be found convenient to drive the loads there after the lifting becomes too high from tie lower floor. If the silo should not connect with tho floor. a door from the ground on the outside may extend to the top of the silo. To close these doorways securely against the ingress Of air, the ensilage must press them against the jambs. Its downward motion in settling will make 1t undesirable to hinge them in place and they should be attached in sections ? it. high by means of hooks and sta- ples. Inch-and-a-half lumber is best for this purpose and should be nailed together with wire nails in such a man. ner that it will break joints. When filling the silo put the first sectional door in place with moist builders pa- per between it and the door iamb. The hooks and staples must not hold 1t from the floor. nor the one above 1t from resting upon 1t, to exclude air. With beveled Cor grooved edges and the bottom of each section made to lap over the top of the one next below. tight points may be made. In feeding the ensilage the door may be opened from the top all the way to the bottom one silo be used. the first emptied may be filled with ice If care be taken to provide proper drainage. Whole en- silage Is eaten as rapidly and as entire ly by all stock as Is the cut fodder and no extra wealth or help Is required to provide 1t

It Is almost an axiom that 1t will pay far better to keep a COW that makes three hundred pounds of butter per year and have her die at the age of twelve. than to keep one hundred and fifty pound COW and sell her to the butcher at the age of six. The one has paid her own way and profit be- sides. the other has cost the man un- fortunate enongh to own her money every day of her life.
