hard to Ten chlnaman,. Ago

How old is a Chinaman? Can you
give a good guess? 1t is harder to tell
than the age Of negro. The China
man has no beard and his hair Is of a
let and glossy blackness, which turns
gray only at an extreme age. when
Caucasian head would be either snow
white or bald.
Then. again. the Chinese have the
most perfect nervous system of any
people in the world and do not wrinkle
up with age. They can stand any
amount of opium smoking without ma
terial injury that would send white
man to his grave or an insane asylum.
So you have little to go by.
A Chinaman will look 80 when he Is
20 and when he Is 30. II you ask him
his age he will place it at least 10
years ahead. for he holds old age to
be honorable, and among his people he
will be respected and looked up to by
all his Observation-Disclosures Post.

1t Was Found In . Cave Dwelling In
Arizona and IL Now In q Museum.
A notable recent contribution to the
archaeological museum of the Univer-
sity of Arizona is loaf of bread found
in a cave-dwelling in the Superstition
Mountain OF central Arizona in 1879,
and since that time in the possession
OF Herbert Brown. superintendent OF
the territorial prison.
The loaf is undeniably bread, and
without doubt is of great age. 1t
was found embedded in the ashes
wherein it was baked probably hun
dreds or perhaps thousands of years
ago. 1t had very plainly been wrapped
in cloth or mat. and the marks OF
the fiber of the cloth are visible in
the dark, brick-like mass. Mr.. Brown
is of the opinion that the bread was
made of mesquite beans, roughly
ground in metates by the aboriginal
housewives Of centuries ago.
With 1t was found store OF ancient
sacrificial implements, stone axes and
arrow heads. The loaf has been ster-
ilized by the curator of the museum,
and has been sealed within a glass Jar
