The Chanute times. [volume] (Chanute, Kan.) 1897-1913, 1911-06-30

The meaning of life has in all ages been the
goal of human thought and the great extension
OF our knowledge Of the past, by the researches
OF recent years, enables us now to view the
course OF human changes with more complete
ness than has been the case before In place Of
looking on the fall Of the Roman empire as
mcnstrous and inexplicable fact, we now see that
civilization is not only intermittent. but is a reg
ularly recurrent phenomenon"
This was the theory propounded by Prof Film
ders Petrie in a lecture delivered at the Royal
institution "The Revolutions Of Civilization"
In Egypt, said the lecturer, we trace eight
civilizations; the first prehistoric; the second
prehistoric the early dynastic, the pyramid build
ers the middle kingdom (XIIth dynasty, the EN-
pire (XVIIIth dynasty, the Greek and the Arab.
The rise and fall of art in each Of these periods
can be well illustrated. Similar periods are
found in Europe, the early, middle and late Gre
tan, the classical and the medieval. These Pc
RODS are contemporary with those Of Egypt, so
far as we can ascertain. Hence the Mediterra-
mean civilization seems q distinct unit, rising
and falling together as one body. The Mesopo-
tamian civilization is in different phase to that
of the Mediterranean, but fits period is about the
same
similar period OF about 1900 years has oc-

THE FATE OF EMPIRES

assigned l 100 years the period of race, after
which 1t must be succeeded by another
The various activities of man, according to
Professor Petrie related in the same order
in each successive period. This can be best
traced in the medieval and classical periods,
where the stages of sculpture, painting, litera-
ture, music, mechanics, science and wealth
spread over some seven centuries. These stages
were nearer together in earlier ages, but the or
der always the same so far as can be traced.
The starting point of each civilization-as Of
each generatlon-is a mixture Of blood. With
out fusion Of race no fresh start can be made.
About six or eight centuries are needed for the
rise to the sculpture stage. The growth Of civil
lzation largely consists in a frightening out Of
the subsequent stages of activity, and diminu-
ton OF the stagnant period before a new mix
ture is started The period seems to belong to
the people and not to the country, and is kept
by the people when they go to a land of a diff
ferent phase.
Though, doubt, climatic periods have
precipitating effect in throwing people on to
another, yet the general regularity of interval
Of the stages Of growth Of civilization point to
a racial determinant This may be the time re
quired to promote the maximum mixture Of dif
ferent strains in two races which are in CO

commissioner, stating that he board,
At its annual meeting held at Law

The recommendation is made be-

"At the present time" said DR..
Crumbine, there are about 20 Kansas
people in the hospitals of Topeka,

ing treated at their homes"
There are three townships in Kan

Jain that the dog was infected with
rabies by a stray mad dog, with whom
heir dog had fought couple of weeks
lgo. 1t isn't necessary for a person
bitten by mad dog to die. That has
been amply demonstrated. There is
cure for the infection. The state will
furnish free treatment at Rosedale for
people who cannot afford to pay.
One of the big features of rabies Is
overlooked, and that is the damage
done to stock. Mad dogs bite stock
