While the international boundary
commission has resurveyed the terri

and Mexico and has set up string
of granite monuments all the way from
ii Paso westward to San Diego, on the
Pacific ocean, since September, 1892, Il
has been the meSas of giving 70 the
scientists Of the world much valuable
information.
The most fruitful results of the
scientific expedition were those among
the birds and animals. DR.. Edgar A,
Mearns, U. S. A, had charge OF collect
ing archaeological and mammal speci-
mems in the progress across the deserts
and mountains and through the Coco
pah Indian region The doctor and his
assistants collected nearly 1000 speci.
mems OF curious life, and they have been
busy for weeks IN arranging the enor>
nous collection. The doctor has packed
his specimens in San Diego and has
gone on TO the Smithsonian Institution
with them, expecting 20 put in some
two years in classifying them aud put
ting them in shape for the information

Influence Of Heredity and of Environ.
Eent Considered.
Possibly few branches of scientific
thought are more active at this time
than that which is considering the in,
f1uence which environment has in gov
erning form and general character. A
recent author who objects to the extent
to which environment has been carried
In forming theories Of evolution well
remarks that it must have some fnfu-
ence or it could not have capfiyated
so many leaders in scientific philoso-
ply. But he contends that it is weak
and not strong agent, and is limited
in its powers. He illustrates by the
common housefy. When an insect
energies from the pupa stage, it has
reached its full size.
But there are small housefies as
well as larger ones-these do not grow
larger or smaller after being once
formed. It must have some condition
of environment" that led TO these vari-
atoms in size. Possibly some inability
in one case to make available nutrition
at certain period of growth, made the
dwarf, and opposite conditions favored
tie giant. But heredity is also a potent
factor, and is able to hold what has been
brought into existence. If the small
flies could be so isolated that they
would mate with each other only, he
redity might result in bringing ebout
race of small housefies. Such a race
might, under some conditions, be re-
garded as species-yet it would be
due rather to heredity than to con-
ditions OF environment. The great
probability would be that when "envi-
ronment'' again acted on some one
member Of the small race so as to
change its puny character, it would be

AS it Is a well-established fact that
men are always in the prime Of life,
while women begin to get over 1t at the
age of IS. the gentler sex are naturally
sverse to pointed comments upon their
years. A laundering man, whose too
convivial habits have conspicuously
wrecked his wife's health and peace OF
mind, was recently introduced to Wis
iting lady OF less than so years, but of
remarkably youthful and fresh appear
ance. With fatal intent to be gallant,
the laundering man remarked:
"Glad TO meet you, madam-glad TO
meet you. You are very well-preserved
for your years"
No answer was returned, the visiting
lady having been naturally shocked at
being thus classed among the aged.
Not disconnected, the talkative gentle
man went on: You look young, mad
am, indeed you do Pray, tell me what
is the secret of it?"
A picture Of the harassed wife of the
rude questioner came to the visiting
lady's mind, and she retorted, gently,
but pointedly: There is but one Sc
cret of what you are pleased to term
my youth and good looks. I have a
husband who has never given me an IN

BUILDINGS THAT PUZZLE.
Their Origin and Uses Have Been . MY

Their Origin and Uses Have Been . Mys-
terry for Centuries.
For centuries past the ingenuity OF
learned men has been exercised on the
.Noraghe of Sardinia, but to this day
they have no more been able to discover
that origin of these famous buildings
than had the Romans before them.
They were unable TO say whether they
were used for tombs or fire temples, for
trophies of victory, for observatories
or merely for human dwelling places.
More than 5000 O; them have been
counted in Sardinia, standing on arti-
fetal mounds 30 or 60 feet high, and
measuring at the base 100 to 800 feet
in circumference. They are usually in
the shape of towers, built with immense
blocks Of stone, roughly hewn with
hammers. No cement is used in their
structure, nor Is there any inscription
to indicate their origin.
A low entrance at one side leads into
a long and lofty passage, comn2unicat-
ing by very low door with domed
chamber beyond. On either side of this
small cells have been formed lin the
walls, spiral staircase rising steeply
from the dome, leads to another, but
somewhat smaller chamber above, and
again beyond this to be broken top of
the Noraghe.
Nothing has been found within these
buildings, and to this day their exist
ence is a mystery.
In the same vicinity other buildings
have been discovered which are no less

Some OF the Traditions and Superstition.
Attached to 1t.
The traditions attached to this tree
are very numerous and widespread
from the days of Pliny downward, says
Notes and Queries. The fancy or belief
that Judas hung himself upon an elder
tree, which will bs found in GerarGe
and many old herbalists and poets, Ben
johnson among them, of course gave
the name to the purplish-brown fungus
which grows on its bark under the title
of Judas ear" which Coles refers TO as
"Jewes Fare, called In Latin Fungus
Eambicunus and Auricula judae.- The
plant appears to have had IN England
the old cognomen of pipe tree OF bour
tree, and in Scotland bore tree, no doubt
from the facility with which pipes or
tubes for musical or other purposes
have always been made by pushing out
the pith from the younger branches.
Weseem togetthe name from the Dutch
holder with the German hohlunder,
Hureau with the French, in Holland
vlierboom, italian sambuco, Russian
busina, and Spanish sauco.
The spSced wine so almost universally
made from the berries in country dis
tricts, and the medicinal virtues at
tributed-and not without resson-to
very many preparations made from its
bark, shoots, leaves and roots by coun-
try folk from time immemorial, and .
proportion of which are found in the
pharmacopoeia, have doubtless made it
popular plant, and gathered around
- many of the supeTstitions, tales, and
even enhanced the virtues it is said TO
possess At all events, in nearly every
county In England its praises can be
heard, and wondrOus tales in connec-
ton with il viii be found TO exist.
