Structural Changes in Man.

Recent researches have furnished
some startling facts regarding changes
which man is at present undergoing
physically. 1t is believed that man
was formerly endowed with more teeth
than he now possesses. Abundant evil
dence exists that ages and ages ago hui
man teeth were used as weapons of de-
Tense. The practice Of eating our food
cooked and the disuse Of teeth as weap-
ons are said to be responsible for the
degeneration that is going on. In an
cient times a short-Sghted soldier or
hunter was almost an impOssibility; to-
day a whole nation is afflicted with de-
fectiye vision. 1t is almost certain
that man once possessed third eye,
by means of which he was enabled to
see above his head The human eyes
formerly regarded the world from the
two sides of the head. They are even
now gradually shifting to a more for
ward position, In the dim past the ear
flap was of great service in ascertain
ing the direction of sounds, and Oper
ated largely in the play of the fea
lures. But the muscles OF the ear
have fallen into disuse, for the fear
of surprise by enemies no longer eX-
lists. Again, our sense of smell is
markedly inferior to that of savaSes.
That it is still decreasing is evidenc-
ed by observations of the olfactory
organ

VALUE OF BABYS CRY,
1t Helps to Make a Healthy Pair of
Lungs.

1t Helps to Make a Healthy Pair of
Lungs.
The early cry, which is painfully try
Ing to some young mothers, especially
to nervous one, becomes less distress
ing If she stops to think that the lungs,
never having been used, need exercise
in order to make them strong For the
first three months the infant is too
weak, even with a fair amount of cry
ing, to develop the lungs more than
one-third their normal capacity, and
that these organs cannot be considered
perfect until they are inflated to their
utmost is enough to make her tolerant
of fair allowance of crying. year
Of simple breathing would not accom-
plish as much toward developing the
lungs as a moderate amount of crying
each day for month. 1t is the deep
inhalation, such as accompanies a good
cry, which alone can make the lungs
strong. Healthful infants cry normal
ly, and they should be allowed to do
so portion Of each day. When the
cry is whining or continuous it is usu-
ally caused by overindulgence of some
kind, or by mistakes, such as handling
the baby, when he is more comfortable
left alone. Too much entertaining
causes nervousness and cold extremi-
ties, which make necessary too many
wraps or too hot room; this results in
| discomfort and weakness and lack Of
fresh air. Sleeping in bed with older
persons is bad for a baby; it draws
upon the vitality. Indigestion is never
natural; it is caused by overlooking or
improper feeding. -Harpers Bazaar.

Of little catfish, accompanied by two
adults. The adults-husband and wife,
no doubt-watched over the babies
with anxious care. They darted in
this direction and in that, keeping the
coast clear, and If a stranger fish ap-

it off like lions. They did a thing that
indicated great intelligence in them
when they saw me. Happening to
glance up and catch my eye, they
feared that | meant mischief, and in
stantly they sank down to the bottom
and thrashed the mud about with
their tails, thus creating an OPAQUE
cloud wherein their young and they
were invisible. Since that time have
often seen catfish with their young.
There have been two adults In each
