 Appendicitis by another name has prob ably existed for c long time-ws all know that. but who has suspected that 1t be lonRsd to the era of ancient Egypt? But . survey under Captain H. G. Lyons. of the Egyptian government. has established this ss c fact. Ftfty-seven cemeteries lying lm- mediasely south of the Pillars of Konosso. which mark the frontier of ancient Egypt. have been explored.
 Tn one grave were found the abdoEainal organs of a fsp1ale so well preserved that iN was possible to say that she suffered from appendicitis-Which is considered to be the earliest evidence of this disease.

About EquinOctiaI storms.
New Orleans Picayune.


 From time immemorial people of all nations, that is, the plain and un- scientific masses. have talked about the equinoctial storms as if there was always stormy weather about the time of the recurrence of the spring and au- tumn equinoxes, or when in March and September the days and nights are for a brief pediod equal
 Scientific meteorologists ridicule this tradition. and declare that 1t has no foundation in fact, and they cite the records of their offices to show that the entire notion which connects the equinoctial seasons with bad weather Is absurd.
 Without venturing to engage in any dispute the scientists. or to question the soundness, of their conclusions on the subject. the fact remains that March and September are frequently characterized by turbulent weather. and while 1t does not always coincide with the equinoctial dates, 1t is to be expected at any time within a few weeks before or after the astronomi- cal events which are the entrance of the sun into the Zodiacal sign Aries on March 21. and Into Libra on Sept enber 23.

BritaIn,s Yearly Dependence On tuner
 Countries.
 London Mail. o- ,u
 Agricultural statistics for 1Sof' pup Iished today by the Board of Agrl- culture. once again give an amazing record of the dependence of the British Isles on other countries.
 We spent last year on imported Ioou alone over E172.OoO 900. On imports or wool and other agricultural produce such as hay, we spent well over t2oo'- 900 900. ..
 The preface to the new volume or agriculture statistics is from the pen of MT. R. H. Kew one of the assistant secretaries of the Board of Agriculture and one section shows how the i'm ports of food stuffs per head of popu- lation are increasing.
 The increased dependence of the pop ulation on imported food. says Mir Rev, is concisely shown by com parlson of the quality per head an nuaIly received for series of years Thus in 1859-65 we imported 126 pounds per head of wheat flour; in 1S66-72 the quantity had risen to I46 pounds, and in 1S73-9 to 200 pounds.
 In the next septennial period the quantity per head was 239 pounds, ris- ing to 256 pounds in 1sS7-92. 273 pounds in 1S94-19O0, and 294 pounds in 1s01-7. Tn the three last. periods the total crop of wheat in Great Britain fell from

 It may be questioned If the highest function of the college Is to produce either literary people learned people Let ,s rather have a common level of intaIIig.nt people. of people with minds receptive to ideas. of people who can talk or at Iaast listen to others talk of science. religion history and politics. of people whose minds are not utterly at the mercy of the latest popular whim. the newest book or the cur rent editorial Let us have people who know how to put a leisure hour to a decent use whether it be indoors or outdoors. peo- pie who naturally gravitate toward things of good repute If the university cannot produce such material as this, and in con siderable volume, 1t certainly cannot ius tify its existence by an occasional prodigy a literary star We need to raise the general level rather than to cultivate the exceptional while the rank and file are soaking in the saloon or exercising what they facetiously call their minds over tho vicissitudes of the athletic field. And the first of all steps is to enforce discipline and 10 see to 1t that those who are edu- catlonally privileged by Q collegiate train ing act with common decency and seIf-re- spect. Then perhaps our universities will cease to turn out SO many youths who seem rather to hate than to love knowledge who combine placid self-satisfacton with an arrogant and contemptuous ignorance. and who really appear to suppose that these things constitute manliness when they are united ip dissipation For these reasons the firm stand taken by Dr. Jordan will be warmly applauded and the results watched with expectation and confidence,

(Conflnued.)
 In a moment of desperate money oh- f,culties, and possessed with the oe- mon of play. the Duquesa, half Iran tic and beside herself. had sent the ,ewel to 6 confidential jewelier in Madrid. He had purchased it. and the money was already gone! In all ner reckless life this was Maria de san Telmo's most daring deed; put she trusted to luck. Luck was her idol! The necklace was never worn; 1t was only kept as a fetish to be worship ped, and was not glanced al. From years end to years end the case re- mained unopened. We'll, the case was still there! Should hei husband dis cover the loss. naturally she would lay 1t upon thieves. should ne dIe in ignorance of it's sale, Paul would come after him. he knew her straits; he was not old-fashioned. Debts of honor must be paid and Paul would forgive her. But if this white faced English woman began to remind the entire family of the much-prized necklace, and Mercedes asked questions, and put ideas into the head or Gaspar. her brother, great trouble would arise. Gaspar, when he was reused. had the medieval temper, which Is ready to punish, banish, imprison, or even put to death. He would ransack Europe for the jewel, once he was told the truth. At present his emotions and suspicions slumbered. He believed the Luck" to be in the safe with her, other valuables. Oh. he would never dream that it could be elsewL--c .. -Aes- ter,s unfortunate question had the ef- feet of turning the Duquesa'- easy good will into a sudden and violent animosity. Fear is a powerful factor in altering peoples plans.
 And Hester sat here, wondering why the DuQuesa seemed so cold and ir- responsive today, she little dreampt that this sleepy-looking. much DOW dered lady had just made up her mind that La Rubia" (so she was nick named by the Spanish set) was the last woman in the world to marry her son Paul. And when Miss Forde made her somewhat timid adien, and h~s driven back to the hotel, she felt a disagree able conviction that. for some unex- ptained reason. the visit had not been . success.
