INTEREST IN NEW GAS.
Does Not Fall Into Any Place In Pres.
ent Grouping Of Elements.


London. - The announcement made
by Sir Joseph J. Thomson that he had
discovered new gas which is an ele-
ment of thrice the atomic weight Of
hydrogen, the lightest element known,
has been received with intense inter-
est by chemists.
The new gas appears to belong to
the same group as helium, neon. argon,
krypton and xenon, all of which are
found in minute quantities in the air
and which have the peculiar property
of complete inertness. so they do not
form chemical combinations.
Sir Joseph Thomson's gas, which he
calls Professionally "X3." does not fall
into any place in the present grouping
of the elements, according to their
properties and atomic weights. The
same difficulty arose when helium,
neon, argon. krypton and xenon were
discovered. but it was surmounted by
the creation of a new group into which
they all fall.

Professor Sinner Finds at Ipswich
Relics Of . Neolithie Type.
ton.-Examinations made by As
sistant Professor FL. w. Sinner Of the
Institute of Technology Of shell
mound at Ipswich led him to believe
that the earliest New Eglanders, who
lived 1900 to 5000 and perhaps 10000
years ago, were cannibals.
Professor Sinner says:
"The neolithic type. such as lived in
New England. was of lighter bone
structure than the Neanderthal man of
Europe and had greater brain ca
pacity. Our prehistoric type lived here
during the bronze age in Europe and
central Asia. These Americans were
no doubt descendants OF the eastern
Asia stock. Their bone formation con-
forms with the bone structure of the
early people Of that continent"

Washington, Jan. l7.-Six million
packages we're handled by parcel post
during the first seven days of the opera,
ton of the system, according to figures
prepared yesterday by experts of the
post Office department. The figures were
compiled from reports received by Post
master General Hitchcock from 1894 out
of the 1850 post Offices having city de-
livery service and estimates made from
scattering reports of the remaining post
offices of the country.
The returns show that during the first
seven days 4,069,s packages were han.
died in the city delivery offices which
have submitted reports. OF this mum
Der l07 ,56l packages were insured. As
all of the offices were closed on New

Without exception" said Postmaster
General Hitchcock, "postmasters are on
thusiastic over the parcel post service
and many Of them have submitted with
their reports personal letters by their
communities and offering suggestions
for the betterment of the service. Prac-
tieally all postmasters report steady
increase of parcel post business and that.

Delicious "Syrup of Figs" Best for Their

| Look back at your childhood days. Re-

on--castor OIL calomel, cathartics. How
you hated them, how you fought against
taking them.
With our children it's different. The
day of harsh physic is over. We don't
now; we coax them. We have no dread
ed. after effects. Mothers who cling to
the old form of physic simply don't
realize what they do. The children's
revolt is well founded. Their little stom-
achs and tender bowels are injured by
them.

sick. stomach sour, breath feverish and
its little system full of cold; has di-
arrhea, sore throat, stomach ache;
doesn't eat or rest well--remember-
look at the tongue. If coated, give a
teaspoonful of Syrup of Figs, then don't
worry, because you surely will have a
well, smiling child in few hours.
Syrup of Figs, being composed en-
tirely of luscious figs, SIENNA and aro-
