strapped tightly across their craniums.
But it is noticeable that this and similar
customs have existed among savage peo-
pies in many parts of the world.
For months doctors and medical stu
dents have been going through the public
schools of the large American cities meas
uring the heads and bodies of boys and
girls. Probably many who read this letter
have had their heads measured, and as yet
do not clearly understand the why and
wherefore. An THESE measuremenUS-anu
many thousands of them were taken-ap-
pear here in q most interesting form.
There are diagrams and charts showing
the shapes OF heads of American boys and
girls who have had the advantages of good
homes and educational development, and
these are compared with charts of the
heads of children of less favored peoples.
Very interesting are the diagrams Of the
heads in Japan, and the charts which
show the influence mental training has
had upon the brains of the boys and girls
in American Indian schools.
The mummies carry us back good
ways along the vista of time. There are
two or three hunuyed of them in all, and
they come from the tombs of the 1ncas of
Peru, from the caves of the cliff-dwellers
in Utah and New Mexico, from the burial
places of the ancient Egyptians and from
the graves of the prehistoric people who
inhabited the region now known rs Brit
ish Columbia. Except in tive or three Of
the great government museums of Eu-
rope no such collection of mummies as this
exists anywhere. The specimens from
South America, which are more numerous
than the other types, were collected by
Professor Dorsey of Harvard university,
who was employed for sixteen months in
the work. He and his assistants opened
1917 graves and tombs and obtained 1S5
mummies. Some of the specimens we're
obtained by excavation of great heaps of
sand, and these are the finest in the lot be-
cause they were intact, with all their carv-
ings and paraphernalia. Nearly all the
ancient tombs in Peru have been ravaged
by the moderns who eagerly sought the
valuable trinkets of gold, silver and pre-
cious stones which were buried with the
bodies of the rich.
They are not pretty things these mum
mics. They are ugly, almost, as death
itself. They show the remnants of their
teeth, the black strings of matted OF
braided hair, the shriveled limbs often
without feet or hands, their eyeless eye.
sockets in q manner calculated to make
the blood run cold. The best specimen OF
the collection, already spoken of, was Cb
viously man of considerable importance
when he walked the earth something like
a thousand or twelve hundred years ago
Professor Dorsey told me how "Ie," as
the mummy is generally called by the
men who work about the building, was
found:
"'He' had evidently seen better days, =
said the professor, "for he was not pitched
headlong into a hole and covered over with

burial place of the Ancon plains had been.

1t goes without saying that thcmost inter
esting study at the Columbian exposition

lessons not only in the man of the present
and his industrial and artistic achieve
ments, but graphic representatives OF the
man of the past. Ethnology, anthropology

devoted to this purpose the professor nat
urally wanted it called by its proper scien-
tific title. The exposition managers, how
ever, said the words technology, ""anthro-
pologyn and archaeology" would repel in
stead of attracting the people. Was there
not some popular title that would do just
as we'll? Possibly. The professor would
see. A little later, with a sigh for pro-
fessional pride cast down, he reported that
a popular Interpretation of the trio of big
words would be "Man and His Works" "
So, "Man and His Works" it is. This
may not be q strictly accurate title, but it
suffices; besides, it doesn't drive people
away from the door.
This department has building all of its

this building which q superstitious man
will do well to stay away from, and which
timid people should avoid. 1t is rather
startling, indeed, to look up suddenly and
find ones self surrounded by several thou
sand grinning skeletons and skulls. 1t is
no relief to pass along and at the next
step to find yourself in the midst of hun
dred mummies. The skulls are in two
principal collections. One is composed OF
all the types of those peoples known te
the anthropologist as ''long-headed, u
while the other is devoted to an exposition
of the characteristics and peculiarities oi
the "short-headed" people. Between the
two are large number of queer heads, de
formed heads, extraordinary heads that
can be assigned neither to one class mol

This curious word has n positive per-

count be authentic. In a very old PAM

pected that limitations would

cepts this as the best compliment
which could be paid to him, as

to fame and distinction. Envy
is at the bottom of all social and

Reilly's Reception.

The team record was smashed to smith
Greens on Saturday night. 1t was done
by the Yorkvllie bowlers in a I. NJ. G.. A.
League game. They rolled only three
short of nine hundred in the opening
game. which was a lrattling warming-up
pace. In the second game they piled up
the pins so rapidly that the spectators
werelamazed.
Their total was eighteen over a thou
sand, an individual average of 2o3 3-5.
This total was made with one of the
scores twenty below the average and sew
enty under the team average. Thu last
score was Offset by that OF Chnch.
who broke the individual record
in league contests this season by rolling
277. He had nc breaks u one contrary
pin prevented him from making the
maximum score. He had niue strikes
and a spare. In the first game his score
was fifteen better thaG two hundred aud
his average for the night IVES 246. The
net average for the Team was 957 l-9, an
individual average of 19l 1-2. This
excels by many points the best work of a
team of five In any league game in this
vicinity this year, and probably is the
best performance on record.
These remarkable scores were made by
the team on It's own alleys. UnIoftu-
nately they had the Jersey City team as
their opponents. The Jersey boys did
not expect to win, as only TWO OF The
regulars took part, Faulkner and ttud-
dick. They made good totals, but the
three substitutes were weak. The Two
Regulars contributed in each game almost
as many points as the other three. Rud.
dick had an average of lSl, L Faux
ner's war 179. The team did not reach
The $50 marx In the first game, but beat il
be- two In the second. Had their crack
lean been in, their scores would have
been higher, but they woald probably
have dome no better than the quinteute
who represented the city SO far a. gather
ing victories is concerned. The scores:-
