A Sarcastic Sign.

turned from the West relates little
experience he had with q swollen river
in Missouri. The country had been q
veritable swamp for some days, and
after travelling through # on horse

bank Of the river. There was no way

swimming after him. Reaching tho
other side, he dressed and continued
on his way. Before going twenty feet,
however, he came TO the forks OF the
road, and not knowing the correct di-
rection he wanted to go, he looked
around for sign. There was mono.

!, The SCIENCE of Smiles.

The. gentle AIT of smiling is. the
latest 'thing which science has been
medaling with, tracing back TO its
very beginning and pointing out with
something like sneer. how this facial
expression first came to adorn the
face Of primeval man.
Mr.. Edward Cuyer, in a recent lee
ture III Paris before the Societe
dAnthropologie, stated that our
smiles, however winning to outward
seeming, are simple records Of our
very remote ancestors selfshness,
greediness and pugnacity.
The passion that dominated all
others in primitive man was the de.
sire for food. The animals of those
days We're huge aud fierce, aud the
implements Of hunting few and crude.
The naked hunter, therefore, was
forced to go ofttimes with an empty
stomach, but when he made kill he
gorged himself with meat. The an
ticlpation Of the approaching satisfac-
tion Of his hunger caused him to open
his mouth and show his teeth, partly
through pleasure, and partly through
an instructive impulse to get himself
in readiness for the Immediate stow
lug away of his food.
With the progress Of civilization,
hJwever, THIS facial contortion grew
to be caused By other pleasurable
things, and then came the sound OF
audible laughter.
The graceful smile Of the hostess,
therefore, as she receives her guests,
is merely an Inherited expression ol
| satisfaction derived from a savage
progenltor who anticipated a good
time when lie had people to dinner
| or for dinner.
; Again, the open smile or more open
| pleasure is simply survival of the
| gaping mouth with which the semi
simian prepared to tackle roast grand
| mother. New York Journal

Tipping Hudson Bay.

A curious result Of the slow changes
Of level going on at various points of
the earth's surface has recently been
pointed out by Professor Bell of the
Geographical Survey Of Canada. This
is a gradual tipping up Of the shores
of Hudson Bay, as if some. gigantic
power were engaged in an attempt to
empty that great basin Of water into
the adjoining sea. One OF the easiest
Indications of what was going on came
to the attention Of the officers of the
Hudson Bay Company when they
found that the water at the mouths of
the rivers where their posts are sta
toned WAS gradually getting sha!lower
and navigation consequently becom--
ing more difficult. Examination shows
that the shore is lined with old beach
es of sand and gravel lying as high as
fifty feet or more above the present
| level of the bay When Hendrix
Hudson. in 1910, discovered the great

wintered with his ships on the east
coast o. the bay in harbor which
has now disappeared, or at least ha,

Treading Water With Aid of Kite.


Richard NJ. Augustin of Winona,
Mimi, q professor in the public
schools OF that city, is stopping at
Wizards. "kite-fving is becoming
all the rage in Winona,' said he.
"Willard Matthews, one of the most
prominent young men Of the city,
made kite few days before 1 left
home, ten feet in height. Matthews
went out to fly the kite while a strong
wind was blowing. He tied the strong
twine about his waist in order to keep
the kite from getting away from him.
Along came an unusually hard gust Of
wind. and the kite carried him away
in the air IN spite OF himself. He
thinks he rose 800 feet from the
ground before the kite began to come
down. Then he found that he was
over the lake The kite came down
so gently, though, that he struck the
time the wind freshened and he was
kept bobbing up and down upon the
surface of the water, until help came
in q row boat from the shore. He

was not hurt. Before l left home be
