with their napkins when, lighting a
cigarette, Colonel GARNER asked:
Would you like 10 know why do
not eat eggs, generalP
II would" replied the general, look
ing at his subordinate curiously.
There is story connected with my
distaste for them. When I was young
I was extremely fond of eggs. was
very particular as to the time an egg
should be boiled Three and half
minutes was the interval 1 required
between putting the egg into boiling
water and taking it out.
well, when 1 was graduated from
the military school was picked out
by my classmates as one Of our num-
Der who would surely make his mark.
1t was predicted that at thtrty-five
would surely be a general of division
and at forty would command a corps
d'armee."
The colonel paused, took few puffs
at his cigarette and said in q melan-
choly tone:
81 am fifty and still a colonel"
Nevertheless q fine officer, re-
marked the general sympathetically.
The Franco-Prussian war came on
Immediately after my graduation My
division was on detached service in an
exposed position between the French
and Prussian armies. One morning
when was In command of a picket
post a strapping girl dressed In the
French peasa Mt costume Of Jaunty cap,
short skirt and sabots approached me.
On her arm she carried basket con-
tanning butter. cheese and eggs. She
said in excellent French-too good
French for a peasant-that she Lived
on farm within our lines and wished
TO sell rs her produce.

craw and removed about a quart of
grass. corn grit and other substances.
1--WE found the inner lining OF the
craw ruptured so there could be no
contraction of the organ to force the

DR.. Schneider said After they had
been antiseptically cleansed the walls
of the craw were drawn together and
Sewed."

one morning Colonel Gustave Car

When Is a Man I'm His Prime?

The old saying that man is as old
as he feels and a woman as old as
she looks is approved, so far as its
masculinity goes, by Abraham Teach
out, aged - years, who declares that
a man is In his prime of life at 60.
Teachout is living refutation OF the
Osler theory. He works six days in
a week in his mandatory, though
he is wealthy enough, and, like Edi-
son, he says he enjoys it.
To the average youth, in his exub-
eranee, so seems long past prime,
Forty fits more with his ideas. But
the older he grows the farther dis
tant becomes his notion of prime,
provided his health remains good.
And when he passes the 60 mark
himself he wonders at the errors of
youth

The Airship of the Future.

Atwood has broken the record for
long distance fight in an aeroplane
by flying to New York from St Louis
in IL days.
II the aviator had not been oblig-
ed to stop for gasoline, food, rest,
and to repair his machine, in other
words, If, under the limitations OF
human endurance, he could have
kept flying all the time at a rate OF
80 miles an'hour, he could have beat
en- the time of any railroad train
that ever went over the same route.
But the fact is that the trip which
took Atwood II days to cover is COW
cred many times every week by rail-
road trains in less than two days be
cause it Is supplied with the equip
ment and the relays of service that
make it possible to keep going all
the time.
This does not detract from the sig
nal excellence of the performance of
Atwood, nor does it prove that the
navigation of the air for long dis
tances will not be achieved as has
been predicted by Thomas A. Edison
and other advanced scientists, but II
does suggest that the modern type
of aeroplane will have to be modified
If this is done and this is Just what
Is suggested by Mr.. Edison though
his idea of the proper type of ma
chine may not be the final word to
be spoken in re gard to the matter.

moth as that creature did over the
modern elephant
THERE WERE MEN THEN, TOO.
Close to the teeth was found an an
cient stone Ratchet which is believed
to belong to a period coexistent with
that in which the animal to which the
teeth belonged is believed to have
lived Indians OF the Klamath river
tribes on being shown the Ratchet de-
clared that they had never seen or
heard of anything resembling 1t, and
the medicine men and chiefs stated
that the traditions Of their people con-
tanned no account to show that the
Ratchet had ever been made or used
by them.
In the same pocket where the teeth
were found was q horn seven and a
half feet long. which crumbled In the
hands of the shovelmen when they
attempted to take it up. The horn
measured at the butt fourteen inches
in diameter, but it bore no resem-
blance to the horn of the prehistoric
mammoth. The horn was OF the same
contour as that of ordinary cattle and
contained a core and thin shell SINH
lar to that Of the OK.
These relics were found in stratum
Of earth which bears evidence of be-
ing the ancient channel of the Kla-
math or some other river from which
the Klamath was evolved. The spot
is fully 200 feet from the present bed
Of the river. but runs about parallel
to the present channel.
Tne general formation of the earth
gives every indication of having been
massed ages and ages ago. and from
the trees and the partly petrified trunks
of trees which were found at bedrock
twelve feet under where the relics
were unearthed there is every reason
to believe that the teeth had lain i'm
bedded where they were found upward
Of 10000 years ago.
The enamel of the teeth is in a
splendid state of preservation and is
green in color. On the tip of several
Of the cuspids are cavities such as
might be found in the teeth of an or
binary animal. Savants at the Uni
versity Of California are to be asked
to try to fix the identity of the crea-
ture that possessed the teeth.

Too much OF either one VIII not

And make you eager at its close =
To, seek q merited repose
That conscience never has to jos
The while you slumber as a log.
The constant and the steady grind

The long and never ending day
OF work, regardless of the pay.
Will get a fellow in the end
And to an early finish send.
The man who never stops % look
At nature or 10 read a book.
Then as for play. II that IS quite
The only enterprise in sight,
The only calling, job or trade
For killing moments. I'm afraid
The man with only that on tap
Would be a very lonesome chap
And be so glad when he was dead
That not a teardrop would be shed
No: half and half is just about
The mixture that will round men ouS.
TOO much of one Is WEAKNESS
And OF the other none the less
Variety is truly spice.
So. II he'd take some good advice.
Then lot the fellow who would live
To both his best attention give.

Five gigantic teeth, which In some
