PRIMITIVE MAN.
Evidence That He Knew Nothing
About Flesh Food and Cooking.

If the eating of flesh food be in
stanced as a distinction that separates
man from anthropoids, it can be urged
on the other side that the latter feed on
insects, and when in captivity, by no
means despise flesh food. The first
man, too was probably vegetarian"
says a writer in the Fortnightly Re
view, but necessity and the absence of
sufficient vegetable food for his aug
Imenting species, may have driven MN
to flesh diet.
The cooking or roasting of meat must
be regarded as an acquisition OF lat
err epoch, because, in the earliest stages
of mans Development. there was UNI
doubtedly a very long fireless period,
and because Their are said to be fireless
peoples even in the present day, such
as the Dokos, in Abyssinia. The Aus
tralians, too, knew nothing of boiling
and roasting food until the advent of
Europeans. For the rest, all savages
know how to kindle fire by the well
known method of friction of two sticks,
or. what is still simpler, they take a
torch along with them on their wan
!derings. that never goes out. The An
damanite preserve their fire by con-
Stunning the interiors of hollow trees.
Since the Andamanites have come in
contact with Europeans they have su-
Derseded this method of preserving fire

favorite objects with them They eat the

latest accounts from Otto Luders of

among them and they withdraw them

go either completely or almost ceDl-
Tor under overhaneins rocks, or build
themselves a SORT of rouSl hut with

Their weapons are spears. bows and
arrows tioped with iron, which they
seize as boot from the wrecks Of
stranded chips. Their hatchets and

made of iron, and are bound to the

she would prefer some other means Of

men. extremely particular about the

would be the despair of any one with a
cast iron set of rules for living.
Lady Burton, the widow of the ia
nous Translator and traveller, lives in
London. Perhaps the most interesting
of the relics with which her house is
stored is a grewsome necklace of hui
man bones given by the King of Da-
honey to Sir Richard Burton, when he
made him brigadier general of his corps
of amazons. The necklace was designed
to be a. present to the new command

said to have viewed her husbands ap-

male warriors all such feelings van

person of Ayesha, the third wife of Mo
manned. The first two were widows
when he married Them; she WAS a
young girl, but such was the ascenden-

though she was repeatedly charged
with being u1faithful to him, and on
one or two occasions the statement
was proved he never could make up
his mind to part with her, but in her
vindication composed a chapter for
the Koran. After the death of Mo
manned she retained much of his au-
tlloTity among his followers. She was
called the Mother of the Faithful -
and in all difficult points the interpret
ers of the Koran consulted her TO as
certain what has been Mohammed's
meaning. She retained her influence
until her death.

OF INTEREST TO FARMERS
An Exhaustive Investigation of Hog

An Exhaustive Investigation of Hog
Cholera by Government officials.
With estimated losses OF between $40, ,O0O0,-
and s25,0Oo,C0O from hog cholera and swine
plague in the United States the discussion Of
the treatment and means Of prevention Of
these diseases in a bulletin issued by the Ag-
ricultural Department is Of great value to the
farmers OF this country.
The Bureau OF Animal Industry has been
conducting an exhaustive investigation Of
this subject. and find that the agents which
destroy the germs Of one Of these fatal diseas-
es are also effective in the destruction OF the
germs Of the others Both are spread by in
fection. and their course varies from one day
10 three weeks. The germs are called the
bacteria. The germs OF hog cholera, says the
report. are very hardy and vigorous, while
those Of the swine plague are very delicate
and easily destroyed. The latter are found
TO be present in practically all herds OF swine
but the former must be introduced from in
fected herds.
The most efficient remedy tried by the
Governments agents is the following: Wood
charcoal, sulphur, sodium sulphate and an
timony salphide, one pound each sodium
chloride, sodium bicarbonate and sodium
hyposulphite, two pounds each. These are
to be completely pulverized and mixed. anu
