The curling C-hattahoochee,
The whirling Chattahooclhec-
And the hooking birds make answer to its
music wild and free:
The blu skies bond above it,
The green hills lean mi love it.,
And the Chnttahoochee singeth of the

Sweet sings the ~Chattahoociee with radi-

The dreamy Chattahoochee,
The glcamy Chattahoochee-
The Alabama hiiltops from the Georgian

But floats this song above them:
II lave them, and l love them;
The green fields are my lovers. and the
green hills are my brides!n
Sweet sings the C~hattahoochee to the east
and to tho west
The olden Ch~attahoochce,
The golden C~hattuhoochee;
But n secret in its bosom makes it love
the sunset best;
For its soul seems ever signing
For II lost love ~unreplying,
When night steals from the mountains
and is folded to its breast.
Sweet sings the Chattahoochee of the
passion of the past
The grieving Chattahoochee,
Drenm-weaving Ch~attahoochcc,
And whatever be it's secret still it holds,
enfolds it fast;
But when glooms the night
above you.
Still that song: 81 love you

Bald Heads.

brains; that tho hair is sure index OF

says, "as deficient, not only in hair but
N actual brain power. You know
each hair is connected with the brain
by n tiny nerve aud the loss of all
these erves means loss of powers. In-
deed, though the effects may not be at

Artemus Wards Fayorlte Joke,

Artemus had n favorite trick that he
loved to indulge in, and out of which
he appeared to get q great deal of con.
genial fun. This was the discussing
of a rigmarole of nonsense in Il solemn
and impressive manner, as though he
was saying something of unusual
weight and Importance. 1t was a
game of mystitication in which he
greatly delighted. AT n dinner given
him by leading Comstockers at the In
ternational hotel, Ward played this
trick on Mark Twin, I'LL present being
led into the secret beforehand. He
began an absurd exposition of the word
genius, upon the conclusion of which
the embarrassed Mark was obliged to
acknowledge his inability to compre-
hend the speaker.
"lndeed!' exclaimed Artemus, and
for half a minute he gaaed at Mark
with Il face in which a shade of impa-
thence began to mingle with astonish-
ment and compassion, Then, lleaving
a sigh, he said: 'Nvcll, perhaps 1 was
not sufficiently explicit. What / wished
to say was simply that genius is a sort
of illuminating quality of the mind
inherent in those of constitutionally
intiammable natures, and whose con-
ceptions are not of that ambiguous and
disputable kind which may be said"
"Hold on, Artemus,' interrupted
Mark, lit is useless for you to repeat
your definition. The wine or the
brandy or the whisky or some other
thing has gone to my head. Tell it to
me some other time, or better still.

Gus mind ideas arise that are by no
means confined to the material which

For Gods salke!' cried Mark, "if
you go at that again you'll drive me
mad"
The general burst of laughter which
followed this feeling and half-angry
protest made it plain to Mark that Ar
temus had been set to work on him
with malice n~forethought and that all
present were in the plot and had been
amusing themselves at his expense.

Midway plaisance are nothing more
than derisive jeers at their auditors,
and so with this Arabian egg artist; he
keeps his mouth going in Il monotonous
strain, and as he keeps his face per-
fectly straight-he must do that to
keep the egg in rlace-nobody can
form any conception Of what be is say
ing. Following the egg man and the
procession is a man who plays Il reed
instrument with seemingly two pipes
and following him again another figure
in brilliant garments beating u tom

The missing LINK" Still MISSING.

In the course of n recent lecture in
Moscow Prof. Rudolf Virchow said:
We know that mar existed in the
q~uaternary epoch; that he lived
through long ages miserable and de-
pressed, while stone, wood, horn and
bone constituted the material of his
arms Ind of his only instruments; we
are convinced that a long interval sep
arated the age of stone from the ago
of metuls and that only in particular
places was the use of stone immedi-
ately replaced by that of metals. These
are the data which now make n part
of the general knowledge acquired by
civilized nations since the foundation
of the congress. Blu further studies
respecting the origin and the religions
whence the different branches of civili-
cation have sprung have advanced rel
atively but very little. We seek in
vain for the missing link" connecting
man with monkey or any other animal
species.
There exists n definite barrier separ-
ating man from the animal which has
not yet been effaced-heredity. which
transmits to children the faculties of
their parents. We have never seen anon
key bring Il man into the world nor a
man produce a monkey. All men hav-
ing a siminn appearance are simply
pathological variants. 1t was gener-
ally believed a few years ago that
there yet existed n few human races
which still remained in the primitive
inferior condition of their organiza-
ton. But all these races have been
objects Of minute investigation, and

that of supposed higher races; thus,
the Eskimo head and the head of the
TERRA del Fugians belong to the per-
fected types. Some races have the
same skulls very small of about the
same volume as the microcephnlous
skulls; for example, the inhabitants of
the Andaman islands and the Nedduhs,
of Ceylon, have been regarded as
microcephalic. A more exact study
has, however, shown n difference be-
tween them and the real m~icrocephalic
races.
The head of an Andaman islander or
OF a Veddah is very regular, only all it's
parts are q little smaller thai among
men of Ii ordinary races. Mani
cephalic heads dwarf, as l call them,
have none of those characteristic anon
allies that distinguish really micro
cephalic heads. A single race, that of
the Orang-Simaings and the Orang-
Cekai of the peninsula Of Malacca, still
remains unstudied. The single traveller
who has penetrated into the mountain

How jolly nice ~ she sighed.

So gorgeously outspread,
And asked her II it wasn't fine

He then proposed they write their names
With sticks upon the sand;
She clapped her hands and cried with
