Of the antitrust programme, the Pan

In each Of these the pres

BALD PATCH ON HEAD

Longmont, Colo.-"About one year
Ego u little girl was bothered greatly
With what seemed a very bad case Of
dandruff. Her beautiful hair got dry
and dead and flew in all directions.
One morning l noticed a large bald
patch on her head, larger than a dol
bar, covered with tiny blisters sur
founded with an angry red ring. They
finally began running. They itched
and she never rested at night.
1T was pronounced a bad case Of
eczema. l was given a prescription
which l continued to use till my baby's
head was entirely covered with sores
and she had lost all her hair. She was
compelled to wear a silk cap and l
thought she was disfigured for life. A
visitor in our n~eighborhood recon-
mended Cuticura Soap and Ointment.
/ used the Ointment at night and gave
her a shampoo in the morning with
the Cuticura Soap. In less than three
months my girl was entirely healed"

HAD THE CAP AND MESSAGE
Monkeys Fun With Messenger Boy
Was Altogether one-sided, for a
Period, at Least.

A clerk on the fifth floor of the hall
of records at New York saw a dark OBJ.
feet fit by a window and opened the
window to investigate. As he poked
his head out he saw a fairly large
sized monkey c%hattering and scolding
from the next window sill. Down be-
low a crowd had gathered, attracted
by the unusual sight, and among the
most interested was a hatless mes.
senger boy. His interest a explained
nv the fact that the monkey held his
hat in its paws and seemed about to
tear It up, number plate, and all.
Run along, sonny, and deliver your
message" said a stout man. who was
among the watchers. "Tll stay till the
monkey is caught and keep your cap
for you"
Oats all right" said the messenger,
sbut de message is in me cap"
The monkey ran from window to
window trying to evade the volunteers
who rapidly organized a pursuit and
finally captured it. It's collar bore the
name of William Fl. Benjamin of Sc
Pine street. Over the telephone Mr..
Benjamin said he bought the animal
from a South American sailor recently,
and it had escaped by christening its
chain in his office before he could take
ID to his home at Morristown, N. j. Mr..
BENJAMIN called at the hall of records
later and got his monkey.

NATIONALIST ARMY GROWING.
Volunteers Estimated at From Eight,
Thousand to Quarter of Million.

Volunteers Estimated at From Eighty
Thousand to Quarter Of Million.
Dublin.-Estimates of the humber
of the Irish Nationalist volunteers
vary between 5000, which is the DUB
lin Castle figure compiled by the po-
lice, and a quarter of a million, which
is the estimate given in platform
speeches. Careful inquiry shows that
there are 10000 in Leinter, which takes
the lead; about 1000 in Ulster tin
creasing rapidly, $4,000 in Munster
and $4,000 in ~Connaught.
The difficulty of exact estimate
arises from the fact hat the move
ment is not organized from the CEN
ter. Forces have sprung up spontan-
eously in every parish, and so far are
only loosely connected with the pro-
visional central body. There has been
a complete wiping out of all class dis
t%inctions, and the rank and file in
clude every grade-farmers, laborers,
shop assistants. clerks, doctors, law
yers and country gentlemen. There Is
a very strong leaven of t~ime-expired
sOldiers-old COnnaught Rangers
Dublin F'usiliers and Munster Fusii-
iers, and their experience is proving

The PtIurim.

Alfred Noyes, the exponent of pay
ing poetry" told a good story at
Princeton.
One morning" he said, my work
was interrupted by a Westerner. He
rushed in on me enthusiastically. He
bruised my hand with the power of
his cordial clasp. He made me sit
down and write my name so times on
a sheet of foolscap that he drew from
his pocket-he wanted to distribute,
he explained, my autograph among all
his friends. He ever urged me to
write a poem for him-to dash a poem
OFF while he looked on. This failing,
be would not go till l had read him
half dozen selections from my
works"
Mr.. Noyes sighed.

mia.
The forehead Of this man is
scarcely any higher than that OF his
predecessor but there is an express
sion OF increased determination on
his face. He displays an air OF trl-
umphant strength and also fatigue
from his recent struggle with the
beast. There Is a suggestion In his
face OF the suffering that the inereas-
ing severity OF the struggle for life
will tnflet on his descendants.
The next man represented a con
siderable advance. He Is the Gal
ley hin man found at the place of
that name In the English county of
Kent. Remains OF the same type
OF man have been found on the banks
OF the Seine In France and in many
other parts OF the world.
According TO NJ. Rutot. this is the
earliest type Of "homo sapiens." the
reasoning man. In him instinct Is

and his craft. He Is the inventor OF
palaeolithic industry, the systematic

he fashions knives. axes and clubs.

gantic mammoth OF his age. He

creatures of his own species. the
men OF the Heidelberg type. He in
augurates human slavery.
The statue of the Galley Hill man
shows him holding In his right hand
a stone knife OF form that has ac,
tually been found. Around his neck
hangs a reserve weapon. In this
latter feature the scientists trace
the beginning OF the custom OF wear
ing ornaments. In later ages this
was TO develop into the wearing of
necklaces made Of stones or the
teeth of lions, wolves and other ami
mails. These are very commonly
found in prehistoric graves.
Later the stones and animals teeth
we're replaced by purely ornamental
objects, such as pieces OF metal and
colored clay. Still later these OBJ
jects were worn by women also, and
finally. after many ages. by them
alone. To-day the society woman,
wearing her superb pearl necklace,
is perpetuating the custom OF this
Galley Hill man who wore his extra
stone hatohet hanging round his
neck.
A much higher type OF humanity is
shown In the statue OF the broad
headed men OF Grenelle." This is
said to represent fusion OF the new
Laponic type OF man with the older
races. NJ. Rutot holds with many

O cIENcE and art have contrived
TO show US the earliest ances.
tors OF the human race in the
form Of sculpture.
A Belgian sculptor. Louis Mascre,
has made a remarkable series OF
statues Of the principal types OF pre-
historic man. A distinguished
scientific .archaeologlst. A. Rutot
gave the sculptor the information
and models on which he based his
work.
These statues were entirely based
on the bones and other remains ae.
tualIy found OF the prehistoric men
represented. Here We may see our
ancestors who were not quite hu-
man and others who were only Just
human, and so on up 10 the man OF
10000 years ago, who could reason
about as well as the average man OF
to-day. They may be described as
the seven ages OF prehistoric man,
for seven principal periods are rep
resented.
The frst statue OF the series IN
order Of time represents the "pithe-
eanthrOpus ereetus." the apeman,
who walked erect his remains were
discovered By DR.. Dubois In Java.
