DIRT PASSES FOR BUTTER.
In Many Places of This Globe Where
Primitive People Dwell

Eating earth is practiced all over tho
world to a certain extent, and is not
confined to the ~clay-eating Indians of
the far west. In some parts of the
mountains of Germany the natives eat
a certain kind of clay spread on their
bread, calling it "'stein butter stone
butter. In upper Italy and Sardinia
a / of clay is offered in the marxats
Tor sale as food. In Northern Sweden
and the peninsula of Kola a kind of
earth called bergmerl, mountain flour
is baked with the bread. In Persia, too
large quantities of clay are eaten. The
natives of Africa are great clay-eaters
especially the Botocudos of the Orino-
co river. In Nubia a certain kind of
earth is eaten as a medicine. and on
the island of Timor the eating of earth
is connected with the religious eere-
monies. The cause of this widespread
custom, according to Doctor Lasch, a
German scientist who has Just been in
V~estlgatlng the matter, is that the CLAW
contains a certain amount of salt
which tastes good to these primitiva
people. The consequence of habitua1
earth-eat1ng is a great distention of
the stomach, an increase in the lean
ness of the eaters, n d~istention or
the liver. When a child of civilized par
cnts shows a disposition to eat earth
or slate pencils, as is often the case
there is a physical cause for it. and the
case should be brought to the attention

surprised it's watchers Thursday by ap-
pearing, of it's own accord, at the
mouth of it's den five days after the
calendar date. For a month the bear
has hibernated, and its only response
to repeated prods was a grunt. It had
not eaten anything during the thirty
days, but gladly accepted a large
quantity of cake from the owner. A
photographer or the scene took pic
lures of Paige and the bear together,
and bruin, whether he saw his shadow
or not, returned to his hut and again
fell asleep. Those interested in the
bears exploit are h~esitating between
the belief that the calendar is wrong
or that the bears have lost caste as
weather prognosticators.-New York

what one Looked Like After Her Coun-

What One Looked Like After Her Coun-
tenance wa Reconstructed.
From Germany comes the statement
that two remarkable attempts have
been made to reconstruct the counte-
nance of persons who lived in prehis-
toric times. Prof. Kollmann, a distin-
guished surgeon and anthropologist of
Basic, was the last who attempted this
feat. Being a gallant man, he selected
a lady for the purpose of the expert
ment. She lived during the stone age,
at a place near where A%uvernier, near
Neufchatel, now is. Either by acct
dent or design her skull was broken
before she had reached her thirtieth
year, and her body was laid to rest at
the bottom of a lake, near her home.
This curious human fossil was discov-
cred a short time ago. and Prof. Kohl
mann at once determined to reproduce.
as far as possible, the features of this
mysterious lady of the lake. Her skull
was in an excellent state of preserva-
ton. The first act necessary was to
reconstruct the head, and this he did
by placing thin layers of clay or other
soft material around the skull until the
proper size and shape was reached.
The next step was to gain an idea OF
now much flesh there was originally
on the head and face, and to this end
ne experimental on the skulls of sew
eral women who had just died. He in
serted a needle here and there in the
races, in order to ascertain the thick
ness of the flesh in each place. He
thus obtained some idea of the manner
IN which the flesh may have clothed
the mead and face of the lady Of the
axe among the corpses on which
Prof. Kollmann experimental was that
or a young mi whose skull was
exactly like the stone one. The pro-
lessor did his work with extreme pre-
clslon, making exact measurements OF
the flesh on the face of various corpses
and only reproducing in plaster on the
stone face the exact amount and thick
ness of flesh which were necessary. He
portrays the lady of the lake as a rath-
er modern looking young woman, with
a small face, a broad forehead. a nose
somewhat turned up, and lips thick
and ruddy. Soon after Prof. Kohl
mann had completed his work. Prof.
Merkel made & similar experiment on
the skull of a man which he found in
the graveyard at Rosdorf, heal Goet-
tlngen. This skull is not as old by
several thousand years as the one re-
constructed by Prof. Kollmann. The
race as reproduced by him is that of
a sturdy peasant about SO years old.
The remarkable fact about it, however.
Is the wonderful resemblance which It
bears to the very faces of the peasants
living in that district today. Those
VIC have seen it say that it is exactly
the same type OF face, and that it is a
proof of the permanence and purity of
race.-New York Herald.

BLONDES AND BRUNETTEs.

In Germany the Former Number Nearly
One-Third of ALI Women.
The German AnthropologicaI society
has been collecting statistics relative
to the comparative frequency of the
blonde and brunette types and their
distribution through the German en-
pire. The observations we're confined
to school children, 1900, 900 OF whom
have been examined For purposes of
classification only those that had blue
eyes and fair hair and skim were count
ed as blondes, and those whose eyes
hair and skin were all dark, as bru-
nettes. All others flor example, child
rem with dark eyes and light hair or
with blue eyes and dark hair and skir)
were put in a third, o mixed" class.
In the empire as a whole, the blondes
were found to number 31.8 per cent,
the brunettes fourteen per cent, and
the mixed types 54.2 per cent. In some
districts the preponderance of the
blonde element was much more marked
especially in a part of the Grand
Duchy of Oldenburg, where there were
only foiur per cent. of pure brunettes,
The effect of the brunette Roman ele-
ment was marked distinctly in the
southern and southwestern parts OF
the empire. Near Worms and Speyer
one often sees faces which strongly
suggest those of central Italy or Ro-
statues and paintings.

NO FEAR OF DEATH.

AN Awful Spectacle In India. .

1t is known that the Buddhistic
monks or BONES in order to move the
hearts of their coreligionists, will in
hict the severest bodily chastisement
upon themselves, and ever mutilate
their members. Their fanatical zeal
n their desire to enter into the bliss
Oh the NlrVana at times drives them
even TO suicide. On the island of Patu
is found a high cliff from which those
priests and monks who are ambitious
TO attain the holiness of Buddha hurl
themselves into death. Others seek to
secure the same end by ascending a
1uneral pyre which they set on fire
with their own hands. The majority
OF the BONES consist of men who be-
come clerics against their will. AS
children of poor families, they are sold
into the monasteries to be educated for
the priesthood. Sometimes, however,
Cinnamon enter the order, and these
are the ones who, as a rule, furnish
the candidates for self-cremation. Sew
eral years ago announcement was
made that on a certain day a young
priest from the c~loister of "the mount
or the spirits" would burn himself
alive. h faithful of both x who
desired to attend the ceremony were
urged to be present in good time. and
were asked not to forget to bring
something along as a gift to the zeal
GUS ecclesiast. When the multitude
arrived at the cloister, another bonze
jealous of the attention and gifts Sc
cured by his colleague, declared that he
would burn himself alive and fastened
to a his preparations. Two piles
or wood were erected, one on each side
OF the temple, SO that those who could
not get a good view of the one cere-
mony could do SO of the second. Dur
ing the hours preceding the ceremony,
he candidates for death were sur
ounde by their relatives and friends
and a curious crowd of outsiders who
mad come to ask of them their infu-
ence in the world above. Magnani-
mously both promised to aid all in
thelr power, permitted themselves to
be venerated as true Buddhas. and
thereby increased the finances of the

OF the two assembled the pile, erected in
the shape of a tent, and lighted it with
his own hands, using an ordinary
match. Until the flames and smoke
made 1t impossible any longer to. be-
hold the monk, he could be seen in
the flames, singing a sacred hymn and
beating the time with a skull carved
out OF wood. An hour later the second
candidate for death made his debut.
He had closely watched his predecessor
and coolly entered his own tent of
death, and passed through the ordeal
as the other.
The ashes and bones of the two were
carefully gathered and deposited in the
cloister of Wen-Chao, where they are
preserved as sacred re1ics.-Milwaukee
