SIX SENSES.
Were Once Owned by Humans How
the Fact was Discovered.

One Of the greatest discoveries OF phys
iology is that we once had six senses.
What the lost sense was no one knows,
and probably no one ever will know.
But that our forefathers possessed it
there is no doubt, for the remains of that
part Of the brain in which it resided are
still to be seen in any one OF us.
These remains are simply small and
now perfectly useless little mass Of brain
substance, called the pituitary body"
1t consists OF two tiny little oval lobes
joined together, and lying in little cav
ity OF the skull, strangely named the
celia turcica, and situated over and be-
hind the nose.
1t is quite possible that it may have
enabled our forefathers to see in the
dark before lamps and candles were in
vented, or it may have placed them in
communion with ghosts and fairies, or it
may have been an organ that enabled
them to go home in bee line when they
lost their way in the primeval forests.
On the other hand, it is possible that
it was bad substitute for vision or smell
or hearing, and died out when the inn
proved sense organ developed

WONT FIGHT.
Two mOnOpOIlss Propose to Keep Peace
Between Themselves

A big sensation was sprung in CONNER
cial circles in New York Friday by the
action Of Arbuckle Bros, the coffee mon
archs, who have lately invaded the sug-
ar market in shipping big consignment
of sugar to the Pacific coast. This fact
gave rise to the ru.aor that they were
about to commit commercial suicide by
lighting the Spreckles monopoly in iis
own stronghold. John Arbuckle. the
head Of the firm, however denies any
such intention, and declares that as no
deviation was made from the straight
price of sc, there is no prospect for an
early rupture Of the agreement by which
the sugar trust controls prices in this
country. Nevertheless some doubt ID
expressed ON this score. rao

A SLAVE.
Wonderful History Of the Emp

She Is Now the Mistress Of 4oo,-
100000 Slaves.

Fortune has played many strange
tricksin her time, but she was never 10
a more mischisvous mood than when, by
her magic, she changed a little slave
girl into the Empress OF four hundred
million slaves, aud the focus Of the
worlds eyes OF to-day.
Her life story began half century ago
in the stormy days Of the Tae Ping re-
bellion, when the outskirts OF Canton,
where the little Yin Ling lived, we're
rayaRed by lswless bands, and no life
was sale. Here she lived with her par

lacking even that.
Her father, Ii Tzun, belonged to the
poorest grade Of Cinnamon, and when
even the rich were reduced to poverty
his family was in danger OF absolute
starvation. 1t was at this crisis in the
family fortunes that Yin Ling, then q
pretty girl of fourteen, besoUght her
father TO sell her as a slave, that there
might be one less 10 feed, and something
to feed the rest on.
After long struggle and many tesrs,
the parents decided TO part with her,
and, one day Ii Tzun, taking his daugh-
ter bv the hand, walked into Canton;
and knocked at the door of great Gen.
eral, a cousin OF the Emperor.
The bargain was quickly concluded,
and Yin Ling began her life as slave,
becoming in time sewing maid of Tidoo's
wife.
A year passed. and the girl slowly bios
somed into rare beauty, which, allied
with a sweet disposition and great INTEL

mistress, who became 80 attached to the
winsome slave that they adopted her o.

of the most beautiful and attractive girl
in Canton.
Tidoo, who was in high favor with the
Emperor, was anxious 70 give his roys
master present OF great value in return
for some step in promotion, and reluc
family lie decided to hand over to the
Emperor Yin Ling, who thus took hel
place among a thousand slaves in the
Imperial Palace.
