There is another man. however. who
is even more cordially detested by the

who never buys anything, but has the
habit of dipping intothe weekly papers

stock, for he knows that Il strong pie
ture or even pretty cover often brings
him stray customer, bu- he expects
the mere looker-on to be content with
this much, and he is likely to frowu
upon the man who resorts to al kinds
of schemes in order to get peep at the
inside pages.
The stands in the ferry houses and
railway stations suffer the most from
these penurious cranks, fer there is
nothing else to attract their attention

to have you shove his stock all out of

So great has this nuisance become
that the newsdealers have had to a6op5

of placing a rubber band around the

THE WORLDS AGE.
Figures Mounting Up as the Work of Ex-
cavation Goes Forward.

cavatlOn Goes Forward
According to Scriptural chronology,
the world is about 5000 years old, the
theory most generally accepted being
that the creation occurred 1904 years
before the beginning of the Christian
era. Profs. Haynes and Hiiipracht, OF
the University of Pennsylvania, who
have been conducting excavations in
the ruins of the east, have recently
made discoveries which seem to prove
high state of civilization 1000 years
before the birth of Christ.
Large numbers of stone tablets have
been found in Nipur, the buried city
of the Euphrates, which carry back
human written history nearly 5000
years further than any records hereto
fore known. Prof. S. A. Binion, an EN-
inent archaeologist and Psychologist.
a member of the Biblical-ArchaeoIog
al society of London, says: Not a
dcubt has been expressed as to the COR
rectness of the dates of the tablets
taken from the prehistoric Nipur and
which have just been deciphered.
Assyrian chronology up the time of
Sargon is not so much beset with OBJ
stacles the Egyptian. Their scribes
put down the dates. counting the years
from the accession of the various rulers.
L
are invariably given on these tablets.
and as their months are lunar, bearing
the same names and exactly CORE
spending to the present Jewish calen-
dar, it is within easy reach of the
chronoIogist." Nipur is upon the very
spot where the Garden of Eden is
thought to have been situated and a
few miles from the Tower of Babel.
The ruins from which the tablets
were excavated are under more than
Sc feet of earth, upon the top of which
were ruins of the ancient city of NipEr
regarded by archaeologists as one of
the oldest known.
Both of these cities. one under the
other, had the same name, although
they were separated by more than 5000
years of time. Prof. Binion is of the
opinion in his interesting review OF
archaeological discoveries printed in
the New York Journal, that the first
city of Nipur, the prehistoric city, WIS
wiped out by the deluge described in
in 1883, and through the munificence OF
friends OF the University of Pennsyf-
vania have been continued up to th.s
present time. The explorers have been
richly rewarded for their 1abors, al
though the result apparently upsets
the reckonings of Biblical Scholars

GIANTS SURVIVED THE FLOOD.
Tradition Declares That Others Besides
Noah's Family Were Saved.

Among the many queer stories re-
lated in the old Jewish Ts1mud is one
concerning the action taken by the great
race of giants at the time Of the de1ugc.
According to Rabbi Eliezer, when the
flood broke upon the earth, the giants
exclaimed: IF all of the waters of the
earth be gathered together they will
only reach to our waists, and if the
fountains of the great deep be broken
up we will stamp them down again
The same writer, who was one of the
compilers of the Talmud, says that they
actually tried to do this when the flood
finally came. Eliezer says that Og, theis
leader, planted his foot upon tho
fountain of the deep and with his hands
closed the windows of Heaven Then.
according to this same queer story,
'sGod made the waters hot and boiled the
flesh from the bones of the naughty
giants" The Targum of Palestine also
says that the waters of the flood were
hot, and that the skin of the rhinoceroS
lays in folds because he was not allowed
to enter the ark, but saved himself by
hooking his horns under the sides of the
vessel and floating with it. But the wa
ter which was directly under and at the
sides of the ark was not hottie
rhinoceros loosened his skin swimming
from a mountain peak TO the side of the
vessel. One account says that Og and
another giant named Lami also saved
themselves by taking refuge in thu
cool water under the edge of the ark'S
huh. along with the rhinoceros. One
rabbinac authority quoted by Gould in
his ''Patriarchs and Prophets" says
that Og saved himself by climbing upon
the top of the ark. and that when Noah
discovered and tried to dislodge him.
