sUNKEN FOREST is FOUND.
II Is Said to Be Thousand Years Old
and Is Petrified.

A sunken forest. entirely petrihed
and thirty feet below the surface, was
discovered recently near Bakersville.
N. ]. According to an estimate made
by the state geologist. the forest is at
least thousand years old.
Workmen excavating for clay mine
kept striking hard substances after
they had got down about thirty feet.
They reported to Warren somers, who
owns the tract. and he submitted some
Of the substance to the state geologist
for analysis and received word that the
stun was petrified wood.

Uses of Teeth

our ordinary ideas about teeth
are very restricted. In fact, there
is no part Of an animals body
that serves SO great a variety Of
purposes as the teeth They are
used not only for "seizing. tearing.
dividing. pounding or grinding
food" but also for weapons OF Of
Tense or defense. for aids in To-
comotiun. for means Of anchorage.
for uprooting or cutting down
trees. for instruments Of transport
and for handling building mate
riaIs. All these uses were noted
by the great naturalist owen.
The elephants tusks are. Of
course. examples of teeth used as
weapons. but they also serve as
means OF Transporting heavy
loads The beaver uses its teeth
as cutting instruments, as well as
To aid IL in arranging the mate

| 10 Each

piece ~ ivory under a micro
scope is a very interesting object
The average weight of a full
grown tusk is about so pounds.
but in exceptional cases it may
reach l75 pounds. There is one
pair of tusks in existence which
weighs, in the aggregate. $50
pounds. the weight of one being
23j and that Of the other 225
pounds.
The length and girth are very
variable. An eight-f foot tusk is
regarded as a notably large one.
but there are some in museums
measuring from ten to over elev-
en- feet. Some years ago Major
Powell Cotton shot an elephant
in the Congo whose tusks
weighed. together 372 pounds.
Sometimes the greatest circum-
ference of tusk may reach
nearly two feet.
1t only needs a glance at some
Of the current uses of ivory in
order TO understand why the ele-
plant is fast disappearing. The
largest quantity is probably en-
ployed in making billiard balls.
but it is also used for pianoforte
keys, combs, brush backs, cane
handles, Chessmen. carved fig
ures, in which the Chinese and
Japanese excel, panels for min
iature paintings. and many other
things, and. in addition. the pig

WOMAN'S DRESS is NOT IMMORAL
Those Who Say That Had Better Check Up Their Own Principles Of
Virtue Tor the Corrupt All Things Are CoHupt~C Controlling
Female Dress by Law Is a Joke Says Dorothy Dix

And this is the attitude of thA
average man. He has the mod.
eSty that springs from being
clean minded. What he notices
about a woman's clothes is mere.
ly whether they are pretty and
becoming, not if they are lure
to sensuality. So far as the
American man is concerned. he
could qualify morally and mental
" as knight of the Garter, ard
his motto is, 'Honi soft qui nal y
pense."
After all, custom and fashion
make the law that determines
what is proper and improper in
such matters. The Turkish wom-
an outrages decency if she ex-
poses her face to the public eve.
We see nothing immodest in
viewing a woman's countenance.
Our grandmother would havs
been esteemed bold if they showed
the tip of their slippers.
We wear short skirts, and no
one perceives anything any more
vulgar in the sight of foot than
a hand.
In the summer, on the bathing
beach, no one looks a second time
at a woman with a skirt that
comes only to her knees. though
the police would run her in If she
should appear on Peachtree IN
such an abbreviated costume in
the winter.

I T is one of the notable pecu-
liarities of reformers that
when they start out to make
the world better they always
tackle the sins and Weaknesses IF
others, and try to prohibit the
doing of things that they never do
themselves. They want to re-
form everybody but themselves.
It's men who possess nothing
but a few hideous tubular gar
ments, and who are prevented by
custom from adjoining their per
sons in fancy raiment. who are
forever trying 70 regulate the way
that women dress.
The latest effort in this direc-
ton emanates from Ohio, where
Representative Louis s. Capelle
has announced that it is his be
lief that the immodesty of attire
worn by women on the streets is
the cause of the great wave of
immortality now sweeping over the
country.
In order to stop the said wave
of immortality Mr. Capelle has
introduced a bill into the Legis-
lature that provides for a com
mission of three married men,
between the ages Of 80 and 50,
whose duties it shall be to pre-
scribe rules and regulations for
the designing and manufacture of
women's clothing, and prohibit
such styles and patterns Of gar
ments as the commission, after
hearing, shall deem to he detri-
mental to virtue or chastity"
