AdeIla R. Macarthur.

THE Building OF Character was the

There has been devised system en-
bracing scientific laws by means OF which
man may learn how to become self-cen-
tired, sef-rciant and self-cultured The
design of this system is 10 develop man
kind by gradual hut sure processes OF
evolution from the lowest 10 the highest
possibilities within the human soul.
"often by prenatal harmony physical
beauty and vigor are brought forth. and
II physical welI-being were the sole OBJ
ject Of life ignorance OF its pre-deter-
mining causes might obtain.
But man Is granted that truly divine
heritage. the reproductions of his own
likeness. for the mdwclIing OF another
self-couscious human soul, and with II
he is given the transcendent power
through prenatal lnlucnoe 60 fix the or
bit OF the newborn impulse for good or
evil
THE rapidity OF present evolution in
the processes of human thought give us
assurance that mankind has not to wait
for generations before the attainment of
his highest ideals IN himself.

DUG DOWN TO FORT AMSTERDAM.


The New Cusiom House Excavations Get
Down Three Centuries.
The excavations made for the foun-
dations of the new custom house at
Bowling Green have laid bare traces of
masonry which competent historians
believe are parts Of the old Fort Am
sterdam, erected soon after the Dutch
bought the island of Manhattan from
the Indians in 1926. The laborers found
masonry Is feet below the lowest foun-
dations of the buildings which had oc-
cupied the south side of Bowling
Green for the last century. They were
under the Whitehall street roadway
and about 80 feet south of the
building line on Bowling Green, where
the steamship Offices used to be.
In the process of removing the or
dinary earth and sand which there un-
derly the street, strong wall was dis
covered. 1t was built of rock and
bricks and the joints were of mortar
made by ecmpounding burned clam
shells with sand Bits of she'll were
found all through the mortar. The
bricks had been so much discolored In
the centuries that it was hard to tell
what had been their color when they
came from the kilns The shape, how
eer, was that of the Holland baked
brick, OF, which many OF the early
buildings of New Amsterdam were
made.
But 1t was not without corroboratiou
that the conclusion was reached that
the wall was part of the Dutcn
sronghold. In the centre of the square
on which the new custom house is to
stand was found rounded piece Of
stone which was recognized as un-
doubtedly part Of the buttresses of
the ancient fort. 1t was at the same
depth below the present street level as
the wall. The relative position of the
two has convinced antiquarians that
the two were part ofthe same structure.
The old fort stood, or at least parts
of 1t stood. until 1890, when the last
traces above ground were cleared
away to make room for the buildings,
which have but recently given way to
the new custom house.
The New York Historical society has
obtained one of the bricks. Another
has been presented to the Holland So
ciety by Cass Gilbert, the architect OF
the new Custom house.-New York

wild Animal. and catnIp.

A curious investigator and a few
sprigs of catnip led to an amusing
scene at the Zoo in Central Park. New
York City, recently.
The tigers and the puma scornfully
refused to notice the herb when 1t was
presented to them by the keeper; hut
the lion. the lionesses. and the big
leopard were boisterous in their mani
festitations OF pleasure.
The lion planted foot upon IT,
smelled it. licked 1t. sprawled upon it,
and tossed it about in ways unbecom-
ing his kingly dignity. The leopard
picked 1t up in her huge paw. took
long and ecstatic sniifs. and rolled
over and over upon 1t in the exuber-
ance of her delight. In her efforts to
apply it to the upper part of her head
she performed acrobatic feats of an
astonishing kind
From this experiment the investiga-
tor was satisfied that love of catnip is
not confined to the domestic branch
OF the cat family.
