played in Pollock this season. No
scores were made up to the eigth in

was earned by an error, one of the

THE FORBIDDEN FRUIT.
Maybe It Was Ounce Eve Ate In
the Garden of Eden.

Maybe II Was a Ounce Eve Ate In
the Garden of Eden.
Why and how it has happened that
the apple has been spoken of as the
fruit that was forbidden in the Garden
of Eden is one Of the great puzzles of
biblical scholars. The fact is that in
Genesis iii. where the incident of the
eating of this fruit of the tree of
knowledge of good and evil" is men
toned. no name whatever is given to
that fruit All that is said is: And
when the woman saw that the tree
was good for food, and that it was
pleasant TO the eyes, and tree to be
desired to make one wise. she took Of
the fruit thereof. and did eat, and gave
also unto her husband with her; and
he did eat" Verse 81
In fact, scholars doubt very seriously
whether 1t was the apple at all. They
suggest that all evidence points to it
having been the ounce, the fragrance
OF which was held In the highest
esteem by the 0rientals. Another point
IN favor Of the ounce is that It is the
fruit which was sacred TO Venus, the
goddess of love. aud in great many
of the ancient writings the ounce is
very frequently mentioned in this man
ner. In Babylonia Ishtar took the
place OF Venus in the Roman mytho-
logy, and it should be remembered that
the story OF the creation originated
with the Babylonians. All evidence
seems 10 point away from the apple
having been the forbidden fruit" and
toward the ounce as having been that
fruit Of the tree Of knowledge of good
and evil."-Tit- Bits.

The sleep of Horses,

When the horse sleeps, il is said that
one ear is directed forward, why is
not known. A writer in the English
Mechanic thinks this Is to guard
against danger. being a survival of its
originally wild habits. He says: Watch
a horse asleep through the window of
bis stable and make a faint noise at
the front. That ear will be all atten-
ton. and probably the other will fly
around sharply to assist. Now let him
go TO sleep again and make the same
noise to the left. The forward ear still
will keep guard. with possibly light
ming flick round, only to resume its
former position"

DREAMING OF FALLING.

What Happened In the One Known
Case of Hitting the Ground.
Probably all of US have dreamed
that we were falling down tue back
stairs or a high cliff. then gliding swim
mingly OF into space. This dream
gives the same sensation as a rapidly
descending elevator or a fast swaying
swing. We are worried for the instant
about what will happen when we
strike bottom, but We never strike.
Either we are of on another dream
before that disastrous event happens
or we awake.
There is an old superstition that If
one ever hit the ground the shock
would kill the dreamer, but this is
difficult Of proof. for. as our Irish
neighbor might remark, the only way

RACE DEGENERACY

Statistics purporting 10 show the hu-

It could be proved would be. TO have
the dreamer wake up dead and tell US
about it.
OF the thousands who wrote letters
a few years ago to an Englishman
who had published an essay on the
subject but one correspondent had
dreamed that the fall continued clear
TO the ground. This woman dreamed
she fell off tall rock. When she hit
the ground she was broken into small
bits, but sort Of second self gathered
up the pieces and glued them together,
making a piece of humanity as good as
new. This dream. however, is unique
