Footprints of Ape-Man.

A laugh of incredulity was raised
by many two years ago when certain
marks on block of sandstone found
near Warrnambool, fiourishing mi.
nor port of the State OF Victoria, were
identified as footprints Of prehistoric
man, says the London Chronicle.
However, the sending of a plaster
keen discussion and led to the arrival
in Australia this year of DR.. Herman
klaatsch Of Heidelberg University
and to the announcement by that sa
want that, in his opinion, the marks
were genuine human imprints. This
decision, coupled with the doctors in.
vestigation concerning the human
skulls in the Warrnambool museum
revived the old notion that in old Aus.
Jralia will be found the traces of the
very closest approximations of the
ape-man-the link between humanity
and the ape.
Further discoveries by Dr. Klaatsct
in the way of footprints in the sand.
stone Of extinct species of some sort
of great bird analogous to the emu
species have added fuel to the specu
lations.
4 telegram from Warrnamboo
states that DR.. Klaatsch consider.
that an extensive sandstone formation
under that town thousands of years
ago formed level, sandy beaches
which were the camping ground OF
the prehistoric races then existing. Al
that time Australia and Tasmania
formed part of great antarctic con
tinent which extended up into the In
dian ocean and connected Australia
and Asia with Africa.

Whose Say=so is Best /?

With nearly MI medicines put up for
sale through druggists, one has to take
the makers say-So alone as to their cura-
tive value. OF course, such testimony is
not that of a dlsinterested party and
accordingly is not to be given the same
credit as if written from disintereSted
motives. DR.. Pierce'S medicines, how
ever. form single and therefore striking
exception to this rule. Their claims to
the confidence Of invalids does not rest
solely upon their makers say so or
praise. Their Ingredients are matters OF
public knowledge, being printed on each
separate bottle wrapper. Thus invalid
sufferers are taken into DR.. Pierce'S full
confidence. Scores of leading medical

several ingredients entering into these
well known medicines.
Amongst these writers we find such med
ical lights as Prof Finley Ellingwood. NJ. D.,
OF Bennett Medical College. Chicago: Prot
II ale. of the same city; Prof John NJ. Scud-
der. NJ. d. late Of Cincinnati. Ohio; Prof.
John King. NJ. D., late OF Cincinnati Ohio:
low, Of jefferson Medical College, Of Pa,
and scores OF others equally eminent.

Bear in mind. it is not patent nor even
secret medicine, but the "Favorte Prescrip
tion " Of a regularly educated physician. of
large experience in the cure of woman's
peculiar ailments. who frankly and confid-
ingly takes his patients into his full con-
fiCence by telling them just what bis "Pre-
scription" is composed of. OF no other medi-
cine put up for woman's special maladies
and sold through druggists. can it be said
that the maker is not afraid to deal thus
frankly, openly and honorably. by letting
every patient using the same know exactly
what she is taking.
