The Antiquity of Man.

It has been known during a long
time that in western Europe man ex-
listed during the glacial epoch. We
now know that the great ice age con-
sisted of different glacial times sepa-
rated by interglacial times. In glacial
times the snow line dropped 5000 or
1000 feet below it's present level in
the Alps. whereas in interglacial times
it lay about 1000 feet higher than at
present. Thus the temperature seems
to have been higher In the interglacial
periods than it is now. There is album
dant evidence. in the opinion of Penck,
that man existed during the beginning
Of the last glacial epoch. There is
some reason for thinking that at least
10000 years have elapsed since the
last glaciation and that the man whose
jawbone was found in 1909 near Hell
delberg lived 100000 years ago.-Scien-
tific American.
