ABORIGINES OF AFRICA.
Vaalpens Seem to Be the Lowest Or
der of Cannibals

Vaalpens Seem to Be the Lowest Or
der of Cannibals.
An obscure race may possibly be the
true aborigines of Africa south of the
Zambezi.
These are the Kattea, or Vaalpens,
as they are nicknamed by the Beers on
account of the dusty color their abdo-
men acquires from the habit of creep
ing into holes in the ground, who live
in the steppes region of the north
Transvaal as far as the Limpopo.
AS their complexion is almost a
pitch black and their stature only
about four feet they are quite distinct
from their tall Bantu neighbors and
from the yellowish Bushmen.
The dogs" or 'vultures." as the Zu-
lus call them, are the lowest of the
low" being undoubtedly cannibals and
often making meal of their own aged
and inirm, which the Bushmen never
do.
Their habitations are holes in. the
ground, rock shelters and lately a few
novels They have no arts or indus
tries or even any weapons except
those obtained in exchange for ostrich
feathers. skins or ivory
Whether they have any religious
ideas it is impossible to say all inter
course being restricted to barter car
ried on in gesture language. for no
body has ever yet mastered their
tongue, all that is known of their Ian
guage being that it is absolutely dis
tinct from that of both the Bushman
and the Bantu.
There are no tribes. merely little
family groups of from thirty to fifty
individuals, each of which is presided
over by a headman. whose functions
are acquired not by heredity, but by
personal qualities.
So little information is available con-
corning the kattea that it is impossi-
BILE to say anything about their racial
affnities. American.

Experts Become Able to Diagnose
Cases by Sense of Smell
The acuteness of the sense of smell
animals dogs. for example, than in
man. and they employ it in guiding
them to their food, in warning them
of approaching danger and for other
purposes. The sphere of the suscepti-
bility to various odors is more uniform
and extended in man, and the sense of
smell is capable Of great cultivation
Like the other special senses, it may
be cultivated by attention and prac-
tice. Experts can discriminate quail
tiles Of wines, liquors, drugs, ETC. Dis
eases have their characteristic odors.
Persons who have visited many diff
ferent asylums for the insane recog-
nize the same familiar odor Of the in
sane. 1t is not insane asylums alone,
but prisons, jails, warehouses, armies
in camp, churches, schools and nearly
all households that have characters
tic odors It is when the insane. the
prisoners and the soldiers are aggre-
gated in large groups Of battalions
that their characteristic odor is recog-
nized. Most diseases have their char
acteristic odors, and by the exercise Of
the sense of smell they could be util-
lied in different diagnoses.
For example. favus has a mousy
odor; rheumatism has a copious sour
smelling acid sweet A person afflicted
with pyaemia has sweet, nauseating
breath. The rank, unbearable odor of
pus from the middle ear tells the tale
of the decay of osseous tissue. On
scurvy the odor is putrid, in chronic
peritonitis musky. in scrofula like stale
beer, in intermittent fever like fresh
baked brown bread. in fever ammoni-
acal, in hysteria like violets or pine
apples. Measles, diphtheria, typhoid
fever or epilepsy, phthisis, ETC., have
characteristic odors.-Spatula.

The Velocity of Light.

Light moves with the amazing We
locity of $4,000 miles a second. a
speed a million times as great as that
Of rife bullet. 1t would make the
circuit Of the earth's circumference, at
the equator, seven times in one beat of
the pendulum. For a long time the
light was thought to be instantaneous,
but it is now known to have a meas
urable velocity. The discovery was
first made by means of the eclipses of
Jupiter's satellites. Jupiter, like the
earth, casts a shadow, and when his
moons pass through it they are
eclipsed, just as our moon is eclipsed
when passing through the earth's
shadow. Jupiter's shadow far sur
passes in magnitude that of the earth.
His moon revolves around him more
rapidly than our moon revolves around
the earth, and their orbits are nearly
in the plane of the planets orbit.
Consequently they all, with the excep-
ton of the fourth and most distant
satellite, pass through the planets
shadow and are eclipsed at every rev.
olution.-Hesperian.

Feeding the Milk Maker

Butter flavor is thing largely de-
termined by the feeding and care of
the COW. While owing to bad manage
ment good feed often produces poor but
ter, it is impossible to produce fine but
ter with fine flavor from poor feed
Food Value of Corn.
Some stations have published results
Of their experiments. which prove that
40 per cent of the food value of corn
is in the stalks, leaves and husks. This
makes the stalks nearly as valuable as
the corn. If it is put into the slo at
the right time it will be excellent food
and will be eaten up clean. For this
reason it is good policy to work the
corn crop into silage
Feeding Grain.
The amount of grain to feed should
be only two-fifths the number of
pounds of milk the COW is giving, says
the Holstein-F riesian Register. If a
COW gives thirty pounds of milk she
should get two-ffths of thirty. or
twelve pounds of grain daily. A COW
giving fifteen pounds of milk daily
should get two-ffths of that. or six
pounds of grain.
Weighing the Grain.
When you suggest to a farmer that
he weigh the grain he feeds his cows
he will naturally say that it is out of
the question. He has not the time. L
will seem to him big job to weigh
the grain that is fed to each animal at
night and in the morning. There is a
very simple way to get around this
and yet know just what you are feed
ing, says writer in KimbalPs Dairy
Farmer. Every farmer has a pan or
measure of some kind with which his
grain or meal is proportioned to the
stock. If he will simply take this meas
ure and weigh it once, it will be an easy
matter to estimate the amount which is
fed each time. I had a small measure
which held four pounds of chopped
corn. weighed this once, and that
was sufficient to keep close tab en- what
the stock were getting.

THE TRADE RAT.
Odd Ways of This Peculiar Little
California Rodent.

California Rodent.
One of the oldest little animals in
existence is the California wood rat,
better known as the trade rat" 1t
owes tie latter name to the fact that,
though it is great thief, it never steals
anything without putting something
else in its place. 1t is said that paste
pot which had been left overnight in
the assay office of silver mine in that
state was found in the morning with
the oldest collection of rubbish. This
was the work of trade rats They had
stolen the paste and left in exchange a
piece of stick, a length of rope, some
ODDS and ends of wire and an unbrokeu
glass funnel. The object of the trade
rat In so scrupulously paying for what
he takes is something of a mystery, but
these same rats certainly take the
greatest pleasure in the odds and ends
which they steal and collect.
In Lindsay's Mind In Lower Ami
mails" description is given of trade
rats nest found in an unoccupied
house. The outside was composed en-
tirely of iron spikes laid in perfect
symmetry. with the points outward
lnterlaced with the spikes were about
two dozen forks and spoons and three
large butcher knives. There were also
a large carving fork, knife and steel
several plugs of tobacco. an old purse
a quantity of small carpenters tools.

show possible.
The trade rat has its South American
counterpart in the viscacha, a pretty
little relative of the chinchilla, which
lives in families of twenty or thirty on
the pampas. Everything that takes it's
fancy and is portable is carried by the
viscacha and piled in neat little heaps
at the mouth of its burrow. If a ranch
man drops his watch or any similar
article he always searches the viscacha

FireprOof CeIIuIoid.

A process has recently been invented
for rendering celluloid noninflamma-
BILE. In its broad principles the proc
ess may be said to consist of introduc-
ing into the mass of cellulod when it
has reached the highest degree of fluid
ity during its manufacture a certain
quantity of salt, such as phosphate
bicarbonate of ammonia or magnesium
or still others. These salts possess the
property of giving off under the influ-
ence Of heat a great quantity of gas,
which stops the progress of the COM
bustion. 1t is claimed that quantities
of uninfammable celluloid can be man

Much of the evidence taken by the
fiouse committee throws light upon
the insurance graft that has shocked
honest men in all parts of the country.
Few have defended the graft and the
purchase of Senators. but some have
even had the courage of their conVic~
tons. Here is an item of the testi-
mony of Max Cohen:
Il am willing to so on record that
even the $1.000.000 which was spent
by President Mccall, under the aus
pieces Of Andy Hamilton, was just1-
fable. And | further say it has not
policy holders of that company, but
millions of dollars to the policy holders
of other companies.
1t is not denied that the Hamilton
money was spent to maintain 1.-The

want, to buy legislators. to hire lobby
lists. and to make it easy for the Nc
Curdys and McCalls and Hydes to rob
the policy holders. And Mr.. Cohen
