JAWS AS WEAPONS.
Chief Means of Defense Among All
Old World Apes.

Chief Means of Defense Among All
Old World Apes.
Among all old world apes the teeth
are the chief weapons for defense
against natural foes and for combats
for mates or tribal supremacy. The
CANNES are in most cases enormously
developed. insOmuch that i'll informed
naturalists have suggested that a near
relationship must exist between the
primates and the carnivOra. AS mat
ter Of fact, these formidable teeth have
nothing to do with alimentation, but
are as purely weapons Of war as are
the bayOnet and the Maxim gun. In
practically every emergency demand
ing unusual energy, obstinacy and
courage they come into play.
In every conflict with the world, the
flesh and the devil-as such things are
understood in pithecoid society-the
temporal and masseter muscles are the
chief arbiters of war. To become a
great and powerful anthropoid it is alb
solutely and brutally necessary to have
a large and strong jaw, to give them at
tachment to the teeth and good lever
age to the muscles. That for an i'm
mense epoch our prehuman ancestors
achieved success in life in like man
ner is as clear as the print Of Maya"
to those who have learned to read ma
lures handwriting.
Since those days of true Arcadian
simplicity our life has become Devil
deringly complex and our methods for
settling social difficulties have changed
generally for the better. But here, as
In so many other instances, the habits
of past age have left an indelible i'm

A MUSTARD POULTICE.
1t Made q Lot Of Trouble and Didn't
Cure the Cold.

1t Made q Lot OF Trouble and Didn't
Cure the Cold.
Lord Darlington used to be great
practical joker, but he was once the
victim of his own reputation. Accord
ing to the Dundee Advertiser, he was
at hotel in Cape Town. In the same
hotel were young couple, and, the
husband having a bad cold, the wife
left her room to obtain for him the
solace of a mustard poultice She left
him asleep and. thinking she knew her
way, descended the stairs and, procur-
ing a particularly virulent connection,
made her way back to her room. But
doors are much alike in hotels, and,
seeing one ajar, as she had left her
own. she entered. Creeping quietly to
the bedside, she saw, as she thought,
the form Of her sleeping lord and mas
ter. Hastily bending over him, she
placed the fatal irritant upon his chest.
No sooner had she done so than
movement of the sleeper revealed, to
mistake. Too frightened to recapture
the discriminating poultice, she fled
from the room and, rushing down the
passage, discovered her own door and
bOlted herself in. 1t was but a min
uie, and the storm broke. The hotel
was in an uproar. The mustard poul-
tice had been placed on the chest Of
the elderly governor general! The ex-
plosion of his wrath, his bowls Of rage
as the mustard did its work, brought
servants and manager to his bedside
The situation did not permit Of an
explanation. Furious with Indignation,
he declared himself the victim Of
gross joke, and the efforts Of the mai
tire d'hotel to pacify him We're in vain
He swore that the practical joker was
nobody else than Lord Darlington, and
he next day, Tuning and indignant,
left the place. SO did very contrite
young w1ie and husband whose cold
was no better.

WILL DISCUSS
FRUIT LAWS
CONTINUED from Page One.)

arrived in Walla Walla over the North
ern Pacific this morning and spent the
| day in company with County Inspector
| Ritz interviewing growers and COM
mission men and in inspecting fruit
being offered for sale at the various
grocery stores.
Inspector Ritz sent for me to come
to Walla Walla to look into local con-
ditions,' said Commissioner Huntly.
1T seems growers have in several in
stances neglected to properly observe
the laws relating to the spraying Of
their orchards and in consequence con-
siderable infected fruit is being Of
fered for sale. The state laws in this
respect are very rigid and we have no
option in the matter except to see that
they are properly observed. 1t seems
hardship on some of the growers but
if they will get in and clean up their
orchards we won't have this difficulty.
Cannot Show Partially.
I'VE cannot show partiality Some of
the growers have promised to observe
the spraying law another year if we
will let them off this season but it
would be the old story again next year
and cannot be tolerated.
Taking the state over there has
been a pronounced improvement in the
fruit industry this year over former
years. Growers are waking up to the
fact that there is big money in clean
fruit and in consequence they are put
ting forth every effort to keep their
orchards clean. 1t is a sad fact to re-
late but Walla Walla county has the
reputation Of marketing more unclean
fruit than any other fruit section in
the state This should not be so, in
view of the fact that the Walla WAL
la valley is one of the most favored
spots in the entire west and should
make its fruit industry one or It's cnleI
resources.
More Money in Clean Orchards.
"The growers here could make three
dollars where they make one now if
they would keep their orchards clean.
1t will take a few years to bring about
an Improvement in conditions but they
would be away ahead in the end"
Commissioner Huntley stated this
morning that he would like to see as
large an attendance of growers and
others interested in the fruit industry
as possible at tonights meeting.
Growers as well as the sellers, will be
given an opportunity to discuss the 10
cal situation. Commissioner Huntly
will address the meeting and interpret
the state laws regarding infected fruit
and will also take up the industry in

voted years to the fruit industry and
