nesday, July Sth, 1914 The time -honored
tradition has been to distinguish each sue

amusement colossus has appeared in that

score of the circuses of even recent years in
this modern wonderland. Proving most

are the proudest achievements in the Bar

Ras.ReIlefs Of che Stone Aae,

Some large bas-reliefs dating from
the Stone Age have Just been dis
covered at Lanosel, in the French prov
ince of Dordogne. They are sculp-
tured on the rock of shallow grot-
to. and solely represent animals. 1t is
thought that the primitive sculptors
probably refrained from introducing
the human figure in art by tabu
similar to the present Mohametan
tabu on such representation. The
animals shown in the reliefs are rein
deer, oxen, bisons, and huge horse
of prehistoric dimensions.

on the floor. 1t was found that the
