hotel Boatswain Pierce carried the silk
flag which MIR. Hurd had presented to
Seaman Appleton. 1t appears that a
number of years ago Pierce and Apple
ton were apprentices on the Adams.
They became excellent friends, but at
the end Of his term of enlistment AD-
pleton left the service. But Pierce re-
manned in it and was promoted to
schoolmaster and eventually to in
structor in seamanship at the naval
academy a Annapolis. He still holds
that position, for he is one of the best
seamen in the service.
Pierce and Appleton had not met
since their parting twenty years ago

at the recruiting office for re-enlist-
ment as seaman. Lieut.. Cool: turned
him over to Mr.. Pierce, whom ne fail

recognized him. Mr.. Piece introduced
himself and Appleton was delighted to
find his old shipmate and under such
circumstances. Mr. Pierce told the
case to Lieut.. Cook, VINO immediately

a special recommendation from Mr.
Pierce to his superior.
AS the two men were bidding each
other good bye again on the train Ap-
pleton handed the flag to Mr. Pierce

brance of him. Mr.. Pierce accepted

the difference in style is not so mani

Many Of the surface finds are no doubt
the work of the Mound Builders In
collection of which nothing is known
or their location or their position in the
soil, it is not practicable to assert them
according to the races by whom they
were fabricated
Inere is some reason to conclude that
there were people on this territory prior
to the builders Of the mounds. Our
cave shelters have not been much ex-
piored, but as far as they have been
examined the relics lying at the bottom
OF the accumulations indicate very
rude people,
|. No Uniformity of Type.
We have at this time no evidence to
connect such a primeval race with the
human effigiss scattered profusely
throughout Ohio. These effigies present
no uniformity of type, and, therefore
cannot represent race features. They
approach nearer to the North Ameri-
can savage than any other people. but
are so uncouth that they are of little
or no chronological value. There was no
SchoOl OF art among either the cave
dwellers, the builders of the mounds.
or the more recent Northern Indians
which was capable of a correct repre-
sentation of the human face. These
efhgles must have been the result Of
the fancies of idle hours, produced I'M
der no system and with no uniformity
OF purpose. They thus have no meaning
which the historian or antiquarian can
lay hold of to advance his KNOWLEDGE
of the prehistoric races
The ancient painters and sculptors
OF Central America have not left sp-c-
linens of high art, but they are far
above those of North America. There
is in their human delineations a uni
formity which gives them value as the
representations of living people. Liv-
ing artists have no other standard
than the persons by whom they are sur
rounded. The Italian heads Of Christ
present the Italian features, not the
Jewish. On account of the uniformity
OF design in Central American statues
J and painting, We feel a consciousness
that we see in them TIE prominent
features of the ancient people, whose
ruins remain to our times. We cannot
say as much Of the ruins of the Missi-
sippi valley. The builders here have
not left US, like the Assyrians and
Egyptians. their portraits, nor any

CURES WITHOUT PAM.
One of the Best Features of the New
Pile Cure


The Pyramid Pile Cure cures every
form of Piles without one particle of
pain. This desirable point is not OBJ
tanned by the use of injurious opiates
which simply deaden and paralyZe the
nerves of the parts and make matters
worse in the long run. But it is done
soothing effects.
And while it thus gives immediate re-
lief. at the same time the disease is
not merely checked. but a radical cure
is rapidly accomplished.
And the point we want to make clear
is that all this is done without a par
ticle of pain.
This fact is one reason for the great
popularity of the Pyramid Pile Cure
and constitutes one very great differ
ence between it and almost any other
kind Of treatment for piles.
Every kind of surgical operation for
piles is excruciatingly painful besides
endangering the life of the patient and
in most cases is not to be compared
with the Pyramid Cure neither in
making successful cures without pain
nor in cheapness and safety.
The Pyramid Pile Cure has been be-
fore the public too long, and it's merits
recognized by too many people to allow
1T to be classed with the many salves
no risk in trying it, as is often the case
with new and untried preparations
If you are ever troubled with anv
form of piles or rectal disease do not
forget the Pyramid Pile Cure Pre-
pared by the Pyramid Drug Co., Of Al
bion, Mich. and sold by druggists at
SO cents per package.

The president does not suggest any
recognition of the republic of Cuba
He says he does not know that the

themselves, without reference to the
United States or to the interference
by the United States.

Evidences of Antiquity.
For those found upon the surface,
their position affords no evidence for
or against their antiquity. Those from
mounds are probably not more than
$1,000 years old. Those purporting to
be from beneath the natural surface in
undisturbed deposits would imply an
age varying with each specimen to be
