Skeleton of Eight-Foot Dane.

The skeleton of a man of large size
and development has been discovered
zeal the Trent bank at Gainsborough.
In the neighborhood of Chapel Staithe
the Urban Council are widening Silver
street, and some old property is under
going demolition. Human bones have
been found in large quantities in the
neighborhood of Chapel Staithe, and
the general supposition is that they are
the remains of Danish marauders, who
fell in fight, the condition of some of
the bones that have been discovered
from time to time in savage warfare.
One of the thigh bones must have be-
longed to a man eight feet high.

The japanese baby is a model baby
so far as keeping quiet is concerned.
He may be seen as he is carried on the
shoulders of little brothers or sisters
while they run about in earnest play
or attending to various duties. His
head hobs up and down or lies over on
his shoulder without any support, and
as 1t Is uncovered It is freely exposed
to the heat of the blazing sun. One
would think the brains of the children
would be well-nigh roasted by the
heat. They are, however, seldom
heard to cry as they are carried in this
fashion through the streets by their
brothers and sisters. 1t has often been
the subject of remark that japanese
babies are so seldom known to cry,
and no satisfactory explanation has
vet been given for their phenomenal
respect for the comfort of others in
this regard.-The Book World.

Remembering that Australia has

against our 1908, 600, but only 4,000,-
BOO inhabitants to our 76,000,0O0, we
ran better realize what a stride those
100000 people have made in every
modern way. 1t is only about fifty
years since Australia ceased to be a
convict colony: since then, even with
a soil of which two-thirds is a desert,
It can now furnish the world with one
fourth of its wool in quantity n
one-third of it in relative value. Its
mineral output alone amounts to about
s25 for every inhabitant. Australia
can do better than that, though, in
a paternalistic way. She a outdis-
