THE PREHENSlLE ORGANS.
Their Possession Is an Index to the AMI
NAL Intelligence.

maj InLeIllgenCe'
The possession of an effective prehen-
sile organ-a hand or its equivalent
seems to be the first great requisite for
the evolution of high order of intel
lect. Man and the monkeys, for exam
pie, have pair of hands; and in their
case one can see at a glance how de-
pendent is their intelligence upon these
grasping organs. All human arts base
themselves ultimately upon the hui
man hand; and even the apes APP
proach nearest to humanity in vir-
tue Of their ever.active and busy
little fingers. The elephant again,
has his flexible trunk, which, as we
have all heard over and over again, is
equally well adapted to pick up pin or
to break the great boughs of tropical
forest trees. THAT pin, in particular,
is now well-worn classic. The SOUR
rel, once more, celebrated for his unus-
ual intelligence when judged by
rodent standard, uses his pretty little
paws as veritable hands by which he
can grasp nut or fruit all around, and
so gain in his small mind clear con-
ception OF its true shape and properties.
Throughout the animal kingdom gen
orally, indeed, this correspondence, or
rather this chain of causation, makes
itself everywhere felt; no high intclli-
gence without highly developed pre-
hensile and grasping organ.
Perhaps the opossum is the very best
and most crucial instance that could
possibly be adduced of the intimate con-
nection which exists between touch and
| intellect. For the opossum is a marsu-
pial; it belongs to the same group of
owly-organized, Anticipated, and pouch
bearing animals as the kangaroo, the
wombat, and the other belated Aus
tralian mammals. Now everybody
knows the marsupials as class are
nothing short of preternaturally
stupid. They are just about the
very dullcst and sillicst of
all existing quadrupcds. And this
is reasonable enough, when one comes
to think of it, for they represent very
antique and early type, the first rough
sketch of the mammalian idea, if may
so describe them, with wits unsharp
ened as yet by contact with the world
In the fierce competition of the strug'
gle for life as it displays itself on the
crowded stage of the great continents
They stand, in short, to the lions ant
tigers, the elephants and horses, the
monkeys and squirrels of Europe ant
America, as the Australian black fellow
stands to the Englishman and Yankee
Cornhill Magazine.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure Deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies Deafness is
caused by an infamed condition of the mu-
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets inflamed you have rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed Deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal condi-
ton, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out OF ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an inhamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case OF Deafness Caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh

POPULATION OF THE WORLD.
Figures Regarding the Number of Souls
on the Earth.

Figures Regarding the Number of Souls
on the Earth.
Exactly how many people there are
in the world it is impossible to say,
since no census is taken of many popu-
lous countries, like China, while the
number of people who live in the jungles
of Africa can only be guessed at
AS long ago as 1865, Benin, leading
German authority, estimated the popu-
lation of the earth at about one billion
four hundred million.
In 1880, the same authority set the
figures at about hundred million
more. He did not base this new esti-
mate on the natural increase of the peo-
pie of the world, but explained that
more accurate figures and estimates
had enabled him to guess more closely.
Two years later Mr.. Benin estimated
the earth's population at twenty-five
millions less than in 1880, the decrease
being accounted for by the fact that
new Investigations had compelled the
reduction of the estimated population
of China from something over four hun
bred millions to about three hundred
and fifty millions.
Probably the estimate for the year
1891, made by learned German statis-
tician, is the most nearly accurate of
any yet made-one billion four hundred
and eighty millions.
1t is believed that the worlds popula-
ton is increasing at the rate of nearly
six millions year,
The most populous continent is Asia,
which contains two countries-Chiua
and India-whose swarming millions
outnumber the people of all the other
countries of the continent.
The most densely peopled continent
is;of course, Europe. The number OF
people in Europe is known with a great
degree of accuracy. There are about
three hundred and sixty millions; and
the continent which accommodates all
these people is so small that there are
upon it an average of ninety-three peo-
pie to the square mile.
The people upon the continents OF
North and South America, without the
Arctic regions, are lsss than one hun
dred and twenty-five million in mum
Der, or only eight to the square mile.
When America is as densely peopled
as Europe, this bali of the world will
have population of nearly one billion
four hundred million-practically the
same as that ci the whole world at the
present time.-Youth's Companion.
