What Science Seeks.

To one great fact do all the most
ancient epcchs Of history bear wit
ness; one and all they prove the ex-
istence in a yet more remote past Of
an already advanced civilization such
as could only have been gradually
attained after long and arduous CROP
ing. Who were the inaugurators Of
this civilization2 Who were the
earliest inhabitants Of the earth? To
what biological conditions We're they
subject? What were the physical
and climatic conditions Of the globe
when they lived? By what flora and
fauna were they surrounded? But
science pushes her inquiry yet far
ther. She desires to know the origin
Of the human race-when, how and
why men first appeared upon the
earth-for, from whatever point Of
view he is considered, man must Of
necessity have had a beginning

HOT OYSTER SLIPPERS.

Barbaric Feas:s Once Popular In the City.
but Now Questionable.
"You rarely ever hear Of an oyster
supper in New York nowadays, re-
marked an Old timer recently.
The veteran was in a reminiscent
mood and was recalling the changes
that he had observed in New York
during a residence in the city Of 63
years.
Everything has changed" he con
tinued We used to live in wards
We knew cur neighbors and every
resident Of the ward and other wards
besides Now not o1le man III fifty
knows anything about a ward, fer
he lives in an assembly district
When he becomes familiar with its
number, those fellows in Albany
charge it. In all mixed up myself,
and yet was born right here in New
York city.
But as for oyster sl5rpers,' he
continued, resuming the original sub
ject Of conversation, they were an
institution in the city when I was a
young man. They had a strong hold
upon the affections Of the people, and
l never thought to see them abol-
ished. The clubs Of the city were
limited in numbers to two Or three,
which were regarded in the light Of
foreign institutions. Good resi.all-
rants, as we understand them today
We're equally limited.
"Oyster houses dotted the city
everywhere. however. They were
ehe popular resorts, and oyster sup
pers grew to be regarded s,5 the very
perfection Of eating by the bon vi
wants Of the day. Another class Of
the community, however, regarded
them with horror IS the sum total
OF szn and i12iquity.
''As q matter Of fact, the institu-
ton was neither one thing nor an
other It was good enough in its
way at the time, but it would be re
garaed as a ba1baric feast now.
Think Of It, the menu was about as
follows:
'sOysters On the half shell, stewed
oysters, fried oysters, broiled oys-
ters and oysters roasted in the shell,
served i'll courses and winding up
with a fricassee of oysters. "-New
