MAN AND THE WORLD.
A Very Small Graveyard Would Hold
tho Whole Human Family.

How little mankind signifies in the
scheme of nature is shown by a rather
morose calculat ton of the Italian Pro.
lessor Zuccarini. who has figured out.
among other things, that estimating
the worlds population as 100000 600
the whole human race al present living
could stand comfortably shoulder to
shoulder in an area OF 500 square
miles.
Taking the number of generations in
the past 5000 years as 200, the room
taken up by them all on the above
plan would only be half the size of
Germany. or for the sake of COM
parison less than the area of the state
of Colorado. To bury all the people
on earth would need a graveyard little
larger than that area.
If the dust left by each body be
estimated at one-tenth cubic yard.
which is a liberal estimate. it would
cover only forty square miles to a
depth Of about three feet This Ger.
tainly seems insignificant compared
with the great coral reefs and other
immense deposits built up by the shells
of tiny infusoria.-New York Sun

Stroke Your Hair For Beauty.

A woman whose hair is always soft
and glistening has disclosed the secret
Of her attractive coiffures. She buys a
package of absorbent cotton from the
druggists. Next she strips a layer
from it and places the layer over the
bristles of wire hairbrush, pushing
it we'll down until the bristles pene-
trate the cotton, which should lie close
to the back of the brush. Then she
strokes the hair. beginning near the
scalp and giving a vigorous stroke to
the ends. few of these firm strokes
will reveal how large a quantity Of
dust and smoke can be taken up by the
cotton, the result being the same as the
cold cream bath to the face at the end
of the day.
Just as cold cream leaves the face
bright and fresh. the cotton brushing
leaves the hair with a brilliant sheen
and a natural f1uffiness.
The cotton stroke should be admin
tered every night just before retiring.
an open window being the ideal place
for the identifying process.

Tho American Indian.

The old question of the origin of the
red man of America is still an open
one. the last word by no means having
been said. The most probable theory
is that which links the Indian with
the Mongolaids of East Africa, whose
physical characteristics are strikingly
similar to those of the American aborig.
inc. Between the Indian and the Jap.
anese there are many pronounced re.
semblances, and some excellent an.
thorites are of the opinion that 1t was
from that eastern race that the Indian
originally sprung. If. as some think,
the Eskimos are the best representa-.
tives of the Indian as he was upon his
arrival here. the theory of the Jap.
anese origin is immensely strength
ened. since the likeness between the
Eskimo and the japanese Is striking
indeed.-New York American

PAINTED HIS PORTRAIT.
His Wife Was tho Artist. and tho Re-.
suit Wasn't Flattering.


A sCburbanite but lately married
went out to post a letter, and as the
lamps had not been lit in the road in
which be dwelt he could only dimly
see his way. A short distance up the
road he met, as he thought. his wife.
who had been out to tea, and as he
went past he just whispered:
"All right. my dear; 1 shall be with
you In a minute"
Immediately after be had said these
words he saw the lady turn a startled
look upon him and then hurry away.
and the horrible idea occurred to him
that it was not his wife at all and that
in the darkness he had made a mis-
take. He decided to say nothing about
the matter and quickly disappeared.
When he returned home he found his
wife waiting for him. and she at once
greeted him with the words:
"Oh, George. have had such a
frtghtful experience! I was just COM
ing down the road when a man tried to
stop me and said, All right. dear: l
shall be with you in a minute I ran
home. found you out, and I've been so
much alarmed"
George was Just about to explain
when an idea came to him.
What sort Of man was it?' he
asked.
"Oh," replied the young wife. 81 saw
him quite plainly. and a more villain
Gus face / never beheld in my life.
He was a perfect monster. with crime

George decided it was best to say
nothing after all.-London Tit-Bits.

Mllady's
Mirror
Beauty on Pantry Shelf.

How many women realize the many
aids to beauty which can be found on
their pantry shelves? We use olive
oil every day, but how often do we
think to rub few drops Oh our rough
ened hands when they have become
shrunken and soft from remaining a
long while in hot water?
They are then relaxed. and the pores
are opened ready to receive the Oil.
Try it the next time you are in the
kitchen. Olive oil massaged into the
scalp at night will improve the hair
wonderfully, while it may be applied
to the brows daily with excellent re-
suits.
Wiping the hands in starch instead
of using a towel is another kitchen
discovery, while oatmeal makes a
very acceptable soap when the hands
are not greatly soiled.
Some women make their own toilet
soap, using a pure white soap as a
foundation. 1t is melted in hot water.
and when boiling a pinch Of borax
and sachet and enough orris root to
give a pleasant odor are added; then
q handful of oatmeal is stirred in and
the mixture turned out into small
moIds to harden. A few drops of
lemon Juice added will aid to whiten
the hands.
When making the soap use a small
quantity for a ball to remove the
stains too deep for the other cake. To
a small amount of the melted soap stir
in a teaspoonful Of powdered pumice.
Let this harden before using.
When it Is necessary to do work
which will discolor the hands rub them
over with vinegar and allow to be-
come thoroughly dry. This will form
protecting coat over them. and If
white soap Is pressed into the nails
no ugly stains can form. sulphur
match Is excellent for removing ink
stains. We are all familiar with the
effects of lemon and tomato on new
discolorations, and unpleasant odors
may be removed by dipping the hands
in warm mustard water
Cornmeal alone or mixed with orris
root makes a most acceptable shampoo
while for white hair wheat -four. orris
root and starch in equal parts should
be used.
One should always use great care to
massage the scalp carefully when Civ
ing a dry shampoo. and the hair must
be brushed we'll to remove all traces OF
the powder; otherwise the hair will
have an unpleasant, dingy appearance
Baking soda is a useful beauty aid

ing decay.
1t is also a great remedy for sore,
callous spots on the feet The feet must
be soaked twice a day in warm water
containing little of the soda, though
of course. the pressure must be re-
moved from the spots before any per.
manent good will result.

BULL ANTS OF AFRICA.
Elephants, Lions and Even Man Him
self Flee From Them In Terror.

SSu Eiec TOH1 hcH1 GFFOf.
In the vast equatorial forests Of
Africa the most dreaded Of animals is
the great bull ant Unlike other ants.
it carries nothing away; everything is
eaten on the spot Every kind of beast
and reptile-elephants. lions. gorillas.
snakes and man himself-fees before
this terrible insect
These ants march through the for
ests in long thin column. two inches
wide and miles in length. If they come
to an open space where there are no
trees to shelter them from the sun
they burrow underground and form
tunnels, through which they march on
1t often takes as long as twelve hours
for one of these armies to pass.
Any creature overtaken is at once
attacked with irresistible fury and in
stantly devoured. The strongest and
the weakest, the most fierce and the
most timid of creatures are alike
their prey.
Natives overtaken by them seek ref
uge in the nearest river or pond. Yet
even when the ants themselves are
drowned their strong pincers refuse
to relax their hold upon any flesh they
may have attached themselves to, and.
though their bodies are torn forcibly
away, their heads remain.
Certain barbarous tribes, when a
man is condemned for witchcraft
fasten him to a tree and leave him to
the ants. When they have passed a
skeleton alone is left to tell the tale

FRIED POTATOES.
Sold on the Streets From Pushearts In
Parts of France.

OF EfanCSs
The street vending of pommes frites.
or French fried potatoes, is peculiar
to the northern part OF France. Pom
ines frites take the place of peanuts
and popcorn and are sold in much the
same fashion. Not only is this trade
carried on in some instances as regu-
larry established business, but work
men wishing to increase their earnings
come out on the streets in the evening
and sell these fried potatoes from
pushcarts. Their profits often exceed
their days wages
The pushcarts are Of the ordinary
type. but covered. A coke brazier IS
inserted through the flooring. over
which is placed the large iron caldron
holding the fat obtained from beef

are pressed through a special cutting
machine. coming out in long. narrow.
four sided pieces. These are immedi-
ately put into the boiling fat and in
several minutes are thoroughly cooked.
They are then sailed and sold in small
paper cornucopias holding / or 2 cents
worth.
Pommes frites have the advantage
that they supply satisfying and nu-
tritive meal for a few cents. This is
especially appreciated by the mill en-
ployees during the noon hour. as they
are thus enabled to have something
hot with their otherwise cold lunches.
Rather than so to the trouble of pre-
pairing the dish. to say nothing of fili-
ing the house with the odor of boiling
fat. many families prefer to purchase
the freshly cooked tubers from the
nearest vender. These fried potatoes
are not sold merely at mealtimes. but
during the day. and are eaten like pop
corn.-Consular Reports.

Growth Of Concern.
In 1882, after the second Alfred
Krupp had been at the helm six years.
there were but ten men employed at
the foundry. But after he fairly got
started Her Krupp extended his bust
ness rapidly, borrowing large sums of
capital for the purpose and adding
new workmen BY thousands to his en-
ployes by the stroke of pen.
Today the firm employs upwards of
10000 workmen. More than forty
thousand are employed at Essen, while
the remainder are distributed at the
great collieries owned by the firm, at
it's iron ore mines, the works at Mad
geburg and at the great shipyard at
Kiel. The firm has many miles of it's
own railroads and also operates it's
own telephone and telegraph lines, ell
ectric works, gas works and street rail-
ways.
Alfred Krupp, the real founder of
the firm, died in 1887 and was sue
ceeded by his son, Frederick A. Krupp.
The latter died in 1902. At the time of
his death he was by far the richest
man in Germany. The bulk of his for
