SOME INTERESTING RELICS
OF MAYAN CIVILIZATION.

Material, Now Shown in This Country.

evidences of eight or ten different civiliz-
atoms on the American continent There
were the mound builders OF the North and
East, the tribes Of the North Pacific Coast.

pies of the pueblos (neighbors and possibly
kinsmen Of the cliff dwellers), the Aztecs

Is conceded that a higher degree of civili-
zation was reached in the Maya country
than anywhere else on this continent. In
nearly a score of places--in Northwestern
Honduras Northern Chiapas, Guatemala
and Yucatan-ruins Of palaces. temples and
strangely carved monuments and affairs
have been found whose dimensions or COM
pick inscriptions approach the work of an

beset with great difficulties, and vast
amount of material yet remains to be ex-

complished that one may now begin to
hope for an unraveling Of some of the mys-

the possession of the institution, but
selection OF the most striking and signif-
cant specimens has been made by Mar
shall H. Saviile, assistant curator in
charge of this department Of the museums
work under Prof. Putnam. Inasmuch as
Mr.. Saville has himself visited Central
America and Mexico no less than six times
and taken an active part in the explora-
ton of the ruins here represented, he was
qualified peculiarly to perform the task.
The Duke of Loubat commends the ar
rangement in the strongest terms.
The view which meets the gaze of the
initiated visitor as he enters the hall is
singulariy impressive, and the information
supplied by labels and charts is ample and
Ineligible. But the judgment shown in
the classification and location of the chief
exhibits can be fully appreciated only by
an expert in this department of knowl-
edge 1t betrays a rare grasp of the sub
ject.
Owing to the colossal size of many of
the objects here displayed. it has been i'm.
possible to remove the, originals from the
sites In which they were discovered. Casts
have, therefore, been made of them. This
plan has more than one advantage. A
cast can be colored, thus enabling the
student to detect fits characteristics more
readily than If he We're to inspect the or

of late years the latter means has been
employed to limited extent, and it gives
much more satisfactory results.
OF all the Magyar cities now known, Co.
pan is regarded as the seat of the highest
culture. The antiquity of the place is re-
vealed by the fact that one city overlies
another there, as at ancient Troy and
Nppur. A remarkable stone from Copan
is a slightly flattened sphere, around whose
equator--if one may use the expresson--Is
cut a chain of email circles. These may
possibly represent the eighteen months COT

lie Plongeon calls 1t "Chac- Mool." Jesus

Diversity Of Maynn Art.
Although the Magyar civilization Is re-
garded as more advanced than that Of ada
cent regions, 1t is to be observed that com
siderable diversity of art Is betrayed within
that famous territory. Mr.. Sayille calls at
tention, for instance, to the elaborate
facades of mosaic to be found at Chichen
TIA; the marvellous wood carvings Of Tikal
the stucco work of Palenque; the carved
doorways and lintels of Menche and the
huge monoliths Of Copan. He also points
out one of the differences between the
Mexican and Mayan inscriptions. The form
er include simple pictures of objects ana
animals. used as names for personages
These are easily recognizable. But the
Mayan Inscriptions are much more complex
They are more arbitrary, and 1t Is suspect
ed that they approach the phonetic sys-
tenn Of spelling. They are far more difficult
to understand than the Mexican inscrip-
tions
In the rare and beautiful manuscripts that
the Duke of Loubat has had copied for the
museum from originals in other countries
this difference is easily perceptible. There's
the "Codex vaticanus 3573." a Mexican
work, for instance. This is full OF bril-
liantly colored figures, but they are far
more simple In their nature than the pic
lures In four Maya books that are to be
found In the same case--thc original of one
being in Paris, two In Spain and one In
Dresden. 1t was Brasseur de Bourbourg.
by the way, who first caught the signif-
canoe of these latter books He perceived
a resemblance between the pictures they
contain and certain carving on what were
known to be Magyar ruins. Other such SINH

that, to attain success. the dairyman needs
developing as well as the dairy cow. It
is well said that the modern dairy COW is
human invention as much as the shep-
herd dog or the greening apple.
'Milk-giving is function Of motherhood
and the dairyman, having supplanted the
calf in appropfiating the milk for his own
use, should try to supplant the calf in q
measure. at least in the cows affection.
The dairy cow is a highly sensitive
mother and nothing can take the place of
kindness in caring for her. Her life Is
passed in CESSATION and milk giving, and
with proper care only demands enough
food as a ration OF maintenance to sustain
life and give energy to properly nourish
her progeny. And the more generously
she is fed the greater returns may be ex-
pected.
Constitution, in the dairy COW, does not
consist in ability to Withstand the rigor
of the climate, but in ability to digest a
large amount of food and convert 1t into
dairy products. 1t is an old saying that
the wind is tempered to the shorn lamb.
and in the case of the dairy cow that Is
exposed to the wintry blasts around a
straw stack or the lee side of wire fence
and given ice water to drink. nature comes
