quart of the coolest thing on earth
that Mr.. Tripler had in this tin can,
and he took it with him to luncheon,
where he put it on the floor by his
chair. They lunched in hotel cafe
and ordered steak. After it had been
brought in and while the walters back
was turned Mr.. Tripler lifted it from
the platter, opened the can and ex-
posed the meat to the liquid air. When

hard as rock. Waiter" called Mr..

steak?" he asked anxiously. And he
lifted it from the plate by two fingers
and struck it with his knife. The
frozen meat rang like a bell. II

and he started for the head waiter on

Mr.. Gillespie OF Edinburgh has called
attention to the curious soporific action
of certain plants found in Russia and
America, says the Boston Transcript
These plants are known to botanists
under the name of stipa. On the Med
iterranean coast, where the stipa grows
in profusion, it is called the virgins

SONS is extensively used for bouquets
In Texas and New Mexico species Of
this plant, called stipa viridula, pos

herders OF the west, where the plant
grows luxuriantly. often find to their
advertisement that their cows and
horses are suddenly overcome with
sleepiness, accompanied with great
weakness. They are rendered incapa-
Bile of travelling and cannot exert them
selves without great effort. Horses and
cows are affected alike. The head falls
low, the body trembles, the breath
comes with difficulty and the heart
beats tumultuously. Accompanying
this there is profuse sweating exhaus-
ton. The poor animal seems violently
sick, However, in a few days his state
becomes normal again. Strangely
enough, sheep are not affected by this
plant. As an experiment, Mr.. Giles

at which all mastodon remains in this
country have been discovered. Iron
rods were thrust down through the
muck. thereby locating the bones. The
first days search was very successful
revealing leg bones, ribs and verteorae.
The first discovery was a thigh meas
uring thirty-one inches across. Inc
largest leg bone was thirty-eight lnches
long and twenty-five inches IN c1rcum-
ference. The longest Of the ribs, OF
which the complete skeleton has twen-
ty, is forty-five inches long. The YER
tebrae are the size Of human heao.
The teeth are as large as a mans
hand and have three rows of conlcai
projections, two in a row. The TACT
completely Identifies the mastodon, as
all other mastodons Of the period had
fiat teeth. Indeed, the animal received
its name from this popularity, masto-
don, meaning nipple-toothed. The mas
todon had more than eight perfect
teeth at no one time, although during
it's life it had twenty-four. The new
ones grew forward, forcing the others
in front OF them, until, worn out and
useless, the old teeth disappeared. In
spite of the great length OF time elaps-
ing since it's death, the enamel on
some of the teeth is white and shining.
The bones are fairly we'll preserved,
but crumble somewhat after exposure
to the air. A special search was
made for the tusks the second day, but
it was unsuccessful However, sockets
ten inches in circumference. reaching
two feet into the skull, evidence tusks
eleven feet long.
This mastodon, according to the
usual reckoning. has been dead 7,ooo
years. It's genus lived and died be-
fore the birth OF man. 1t belonged to
the post tertiary period Of cenozoic
time. a period during which the ell
mate OF Michigan was semi-tropical.
It was covered with reddish wool, and
long black hair, and lived on spruce
and 1ar trees. In life it was eleven feet
high and twenty-five feet long from
the tips of its tusks to the base OF its
tail. Nor was it the only giant Of its
time. The horse and elephant OF today
are pigmies in comparison with their
ancient prototypes.
Enough leg bones were found exact
~ alike In all except size to make 1t
certain that several mastodons must
have persisted in the same place.
Methodical work will be begun as soon
as the swamp dries sufficiently. 1t is
proposed to plow a large area and
scrape of a foot from the surface. This
will make digging much easier. Profs.
Knapp and Montgomery think that
only a small beginning has been made
Of exhuming a large mastodon ceme-
terry. Only five complete skeletons
have been found in the United States.
and it is expected that the sixth will
soon be mounted in the Olivet college
museum.

The Professors Of Olivet College Make An
Interesting Discovery.

The skeleton of a mastodon, nearly
complete, has been discovered near OIL
vet. Mich, by college professors.
Twelve years ago H. c. Bumpus, the
first professor Of biology, made inter-
esting discoveries in a low, swampy
place, and, according to arrangements
made by him, word was at once taken
to the college, when, short time ago.
additional evidences of mastodon re-
mains appeared. Prof. G. A. Knapp
Immediately formed party consisting
Of Profs. Stewart Montgomery and w.
E. c. Wright, and Fitz l.. Reed. vice.
president Of the college. The bones
were found in small marsh that Is
covered with water except in dry Pc
RODS. They formed part OF an old
beaver dam, and probably were brought
. short distance by the beavers. Three
feet Of muck was over them, depth
