LIFE 100000 YEARS AGO.

Scientists have found in cave in Switzerlanu bones of men who lived 100000 years ago, when life was in constant danger from wild beasts. To-day the danger, as shown by A. w. Brown of Alexander, Me-, is largely from deadly disease. If it had not been for Dr Kings New Dis covery, which cured me, I could not have lived," he writes, suffering as l did from severe lung trouble and stubborn cougn." To cure sore lungs. colds, obstinate coughs, and prevent pneumonia, it's the best medicine on earth. 50c and $1 guaranteed by R. H. Beers & Co.,, Newtown; Taylor, Curtis & Co.,, Sandy Hook; P.

thing that savored of patronage. Left,
therefore, to herself, what remains?
Simply the daylight hours spent at
definite duties within four walls; and
the evenings boredom. Park, library,
theater, lecture-hall-are not in many
cases or places possible for the un-
escorted woman. She may not en-
JOY the most harmless diversions
alone. What solace within doors?
The boarding house parlor or piazza
is monopolized mostly by cads and
cats. The private family is generally
SO obviously reluctant to have her
upon any terms, and so engrossed in
it's own affairs, that she feels herself
to be an intruder if she ventures be-
yond her own room. How can she
avoid the sense of not being wanted
anywhere?
AS for the multitude of working
girls of less culture, the words Of
Miss Jane Adams may with profit
be pitted against the opinions Of the
Sunday Supplement pen-scratcher:
'EFor the first time, girls are being
priced more for their labor power
than for their innocence, their tender
beauty, their ephemeral gayety. So
ciety cares more for the products they
manufacture than for their immemo-
rial ability to knead over the bread
Of life and reafirm the charm of ex-
istence. The love Of pleasure will not
be denied, and when no adequate pro-
vision is made for its expression, it
turns into all sorts Of malignant and
vicious appetites. -. In every
city arise so-called places, gin pal
aces they are called in fiction, in
which alcohol is dispensed; huge
dance halls are opened, to which
young people are attracted, standing
wistfully outside a roped circle, for
within it five cents will procure for
five minutes the sense Of allurement
and intoxication which is sold in lieu
of innocent pleasure. These coarse
and illicit merrymakings remind one
Of the unrestrained jollities Of Resto-
ration London, confusing joy with lust
and gayety with debauchery."
0, poor little girl who cannot for
get the refnements Of "the home
you had before father died." you are
one Of those bluntly told that you are
isolated because you are silly young
prig, morbid NOPE, an insufferable
bore!' And each evening that sue
eeeds the weary day, makes the mem
Dry Of the old training weaker, the
lure Of such pleasures stronger. Pres
emily, in desperation, you will join the
still poorer creatures, scarcely more
than children, who have yielded to the
lure, or grown up knowing nothing
better.

There is such constant care lest hospl-
tality might be extended to those who
really need it!
AS for the farmers daughter, again
the loneliness is largely question OF
sex. The men and boys come and go
freely, but it is neither convenient,
nor safe, for the girls to do much
visiting. Particularly is this true IN
the South, where the black shadow
hangs over every wood and field and
highway.
No, Dorothy Dix and others, the
lonely girl is not herself to blame, in
999 out Of 1000 cases. The pitiful
appeal she makes to you, and which
she would be too proud to utter if she
thought her real identity would be
discovered, is an indictment against
the GOODNESS Of society in general.
Snobbery is not confined to the big
cities. It turks in the country as well
And Mrs. Moneybags continues to be
besieged with invitations which are
treated with real or affected noncha-
lance, while Miss Penniless grows
warped and embittered in an unde-
served neglect.
This being true, I feel like gather
ing the forlorn little sister to me, just
as I would a wistful baby shut out by
his thoughtless fellows, and saying:
"Never mind! Good books will never
fail, good work is needing to be done
and there are lots of folk just as lone
ly as you are, whom you may cheer
up. Don't torment yourself with
introspection. Should fame or for
tune come your way, you would need
a few personal peculiarities, anyhow,
for advertising purposes. If you
want to win appreciation, and the
good opinion Of others, you are not
apt to be hiding any really wrong
thoughts or ugly traits within your
soul. The very best men and women
have often to meet and vanquish envy,
spite, malice and Indifference. And,
no matter how bleak the present out
look, there is one unfailing rule that
will bring all and more of the COM
pany you crave. LET a man do
something better than any other man
can do it, and the multitude will break
path to his door, even though he live
in an unbroken Wilderness
The quotation may not be exact,
but is just as inspiring as though it
were. The finest kind Of popularity is

DADDY's LULLABY.

Sing me to sleep, little girl, sing on,
Fondly my heart implores you;
And while you are singing good
night song,
Remember your Daddy adores you.
Sing, and recall, while glad the strain
floats
Adrift, like a dream, on the river,
Whatever the world holds, good or i'll,
That my heart is your own forever.
Sing, little girl, sing bold, sing mild,
And never mind foe or scoffer;
Dream that your Daddy would give to
his child
The best. that the world can offer.
Instead of the cabin and barren wall, :
Dream that the place is a palace;
Dream that old Daddy is king of it all,
And you are the Princess Alice.
Dream the little old half-worn shoe
Is slipper gay and golden;
That the Prince is coming along for
you,
Like the Prince in the story olden.
Dream that your back will never know
weight,
And never a grief must carry,
For your Daddy is one of the Magi
great,
And you are his dearest fairy.
Then sing, little girl, sing on, sing
brave;
Who said that my child was cryingg
Who said that her song was make
belive?
That her poor old Daddy is dying?
Oh, sing little girl, and never give
heed
To their foolish old chat, implore
you;
For Daddy'l come back to you, living
or dead,
To watch with the angels Ger you.
But should he come back here and find
you sad,
Some beautiful far tomorrow,
His heart, in heaven, could never be
glad,
But would break for your sake with
sorrow.
Then sing, little girl, sing loud, sing
clear,
Though the frost on the red rose
glistens;
And be sure, somehow, little girl,
somewhere,
That your dear old Daddy still lis

thetic little plea complaining Of
an isolation most dreary. Whereup-
on. the reading world, over her Shout
der, again is treated to a trite homily
on how to be popular. Fair phrases
and maternal counsel prevail, but the
darkling significance Of it all is this:
Don't be selfish; and Don't be rude.
It is a cruel answer and must never

back the bunch Of advice with a firm,
polite, No, thank you. Of course,
you understand it doesn't take a very
great deal to blight those already
withered by the frost Of an uncon-
genial atmosphere So the cold cor
rection has quite annihilated the un-
happy wights. Yet a thought must
convince any one Of sympathetic In
sight that the rudenes, selfshness, lack
Of interest in others, tactlessness and
general lack Of adaptability charged
against the lonely one, would apply
far more appropriately to those in
whose power it lies to promote the de-

those familiar to "our SCI"
The saddest life in the world s'per-

yet no tolerance. While it may be
too much to hope that humanity yet
scarcely civilized may become social
lied at an early day, it is certain that
it will get little forwarder So long as
the views Of the superficial remain
undenied.
In the first place, the feminine suf-
ferer from loneliness cannot help her
sex, and the restrictions placed upon
her by iron-clad convention are the
main cause Of her complete isolation,
when she chances to be born outside

Pins.

Queen Catherine obtained pins from
France, and In 1913 an act was passed
THAT no person shall put to sale any
pinnes but only such as shall be double
headed and have the heads soldered
fast to the shank OF the pinnes, well
smoothed, the shank well shapen, the
points well round filed. cauted and
sharpened,"
At this time most pins were made o.
brass, but many were also made OF
iron, with brass surface. France
sent large number of pins to Eng
land until about the year 1926. In this
year one John TIlsby started pinmak-
Ing In Worcestershire. SO successful
was his venture that he soon had
1900 persons working. These pins
made at Stroud were held In high re-
pute. In 1896 plnmakers combined and
founded corporation. The industry
was carried on ut Bristol and Blr-
mingham, the latter becoming the chief

THE FIRST STEAMSHIPS.
Screw PropelIers Did Not Come Int
Use Until 1850.

Screw Propeliers Did Not Come Into
Use Until 1850.
I'VE are prone to smile at the
archaic prototypes of our modern
steamships" writes Gustav II. Schwab
In Harper's Weekly, sat their diminu
tive size. their clumsy build, their
huge paddle boxes and their single
slender smoke pipe. but we do not stop
to think Of the few brave men Of
those days who, undaunted by the op-
position and ridicule OF most OF their
fellows, persisted In their efforts to
supplant sail by steam and who finally
by sheer pluck and perseverance sue
ceeded In these efforts"
The Savannah, which crossed the
Atlantic In 1919, was full rugged
packet ship to which had been added
a small one cylinder steam engine
turning two paddle wheels, which were
set In motion In smooth water when
the wind failed. For two.thlrds of the
way across the Savannah depended
solely upon her sails. In 1888 the
Royal William made the passage IN
twenty-five days, under steam the
whole way. In 1897 the Great West
ern was constructed, but her unusual
length Of 230 feet gave rise to many
apprehensions as to her safety. The
first screw steamship was built In
1850, and eight years later the Bremen
made the passage In fifteen days. In
1862 the Scotia cut down the time
from Queenstown to less than nine
days. Froro that time on the record
has been gradually reduced.
