LOW ORDER OF HUMANITY.
Australian Bushmen Make Their
Abodes in Nests.


Travellers who have returned from
the heart of Africa and the Austral-
asian continent tell wonderful stories
of nest-building people who inhabit
the wilds of those countries. In the
bushmen of Australia we find, per-
haps, the lowest order of men that Is
known. They are so primitive that
they do not know enough to build
even the simplest form of hut for
shelter. The nearest they can ap.
proach to it is to gather a lot Of
twigs and grass and, taking them
into a thicket or jungle, build nest
for a home. The nest is usually built
large enough for the family, and II
the latter be very numerous then
the nests are of a very large size.
Sometimes the foliage above will form
a natural covering, but there is never
any attempt at constructing pro.
lection from the rain and storms.

Actuaries employed by insurance
companies adopt a standard method
OF computing prospective ages OF
risks. To ascertain how many years
person OF given age Is ordinarily
expected to live. the present age Is
deducted from eighty. and two-thirds
OF the remainder will indicate the
likely future span OF life. Actuarial
schedules are a unit in this system
OF calculation. In illustration OF the
above statement: Age twenty de.
Quoted from eighty years shows that
forty twelvemonths are the allotment.
while age sixty from eighty. leaving

"In my opinion Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy is the best made for
colds" says Mrs. Cora Walker OF
Porterville, California There is no
doubt about its being the best. No
other will cure cold so quickly. No
other is so sure preventive of pneu-
monia. No other is so pleasant and
safe to take. These are good reasons
why it should be preferred to any
other. The fact is that few people
are satisfied with any other after hav-

Branning's Body Found.

The body of c. f. Branning, the
wood worker who lost his life by
drowning at Shoshone falls on
Sunday, September II, was found
floating in the water a short dis
stance below the power house OF
the Shoshone Falls Power COM
pany on Tuesday evening. The
remains were anchored for the
night and carried out of the can
'yon through the power company's
tunnel on Wednesday. Coroner
Patterson decided that no inquest
was necessary and the body was
buried in Twin Falls Thursday
morning.
This was the first instance in
which the body of a person drowed
at Shoshone falls came to the sur
face in less than three weeks. The
early discovery of Branning's re-
mains is attributed to the low
water which reduced the circula-
ion below the falls and PERMITTED
objects to float down stream.
Branning's body was mutilated
almost beyond recognition by CON
act with the rocks. 1t was
'rought to the parlors of Under
aker Havlicek. The widow and
rother of the deceased were notif-
d that the body had been reeov-
red and they quickly came from
alt Lake City. 1t was decided to

are to be paid Sor in cash at the

with plenty of money may make
purchases, the class most numer-

character are those who have a lit

that they can make a good turn on
