A wellknown illustrator, who makes
interesting western pictures. once
made the acquaintance Of q noisy but
good-natured cowboy who rejoiced in
the appellation Of "Hollering Jones'
In physical appearance this man was
typical Of his kind. and the artist made
several studies of him, both in re-
pose and In his favOrite diversion Of
"hollering. Some OF the studies were
sold by the artist to an eastern maya
sine. They showed Jones in his most
violent state.
A year later the artist again visited
the region. He was soon approached
by Mr.. Jones himself. bearing one Of
the pictures, which he had torn from
tho magazine In which its was printed.
Pointing to 1t. he asked:

PLANTS HAVE MENTAL LIFE
Scientific Discoveries Concerning the
Lower Forms Of Living Matter
Are Interesting.

Tfat plants are very much alive 70
their surroundings. and respond TO
stimuli In n manner quite similar TO
animals il an old story now. Their
sensitiyeness differs In quantity rath-
er than In quality from that of man.
II one chooses to take broad view OF
psychology, that science may be held
to include a sub-department dealing
with plant sensations and intelligence.
Vegetables can certainly feel. and af-
ter a fashion are endowed with a con-
sciousness of their own: they may be
scared. and In a primitive. protoplas-
mic way show signs OF reasoning To
press the analogy somewhat, plants
show wide variations In intelligence.
so we may posit q cultured az well az
q stupid class among them.
This Juggling with words. however,
belongs properly to the romance de-
partment OF science. The mental life
of plants is. In the ordinary under
standing Of that phrase. q purely sub
jective phenomenon with the human
observer Its use In justified. perhaps.
for the purpose Of awakening popular
interest in these manifestations Of the
lower forms Of living matter the
more particularly as the study Of such
phenomena Is likely TO help us in un-
raveling and explaining the compli-
Gated mental processes Of the human

ORIGIN OF AMERICAN INDIANS
Theory That They Came From Asia 10
the One That 10 Most Generally
Entertained.

There has been a revival OF inter-
est lately in the origin OF American
Indians. and the way In which the
western continent was peopled
Our great-grandfatbers were salts
fed TO lay the achievements 10 those
mysterious lost tribes" OF israel: but
the scientific spirit OF today demands
more plausible theories. These are
many and varied. but the old belief
that the ancestors OF the Indians
crossed the straits and narrow seas
from northern Asia to Alaska remains
the most probable OF all
The Eskimos OF America are almost
Identical with some tribes of eastern
Siberia. The straight. uncopDromis-
Ing black hair of the Indian is found
elsewhere onIy In Asia. and his broad
skull is likewise an Aslatic trade
mark.
as for means of getting across, the
voyage In often made over Bering
straits today. and in the mild climate
before the last glacial period the
trip would have been easier still. Only
the other day two sampans. or native
boats. arrived on the coast Of Cali
fornia whose occupants claimed to
have made the passage from Japan.
Without doubt there was a certain
European alloy In the Indian blood.

blond Eskimos found In the FAR north
bear witness to this. Morse royers
