miles, by the way the river runs, "
said one of the party this morning.
1t was a most enjoyable trip from
the beginning to the end, with no
accidents to mar the occasion. Some
of the scenery along the river is mag

We're nursed back to health again.
NJ. Ogilvie went back To Melville's
and his golf and Or, Farabee sailed
for the Barbados to recuperate before
starting out again. While in the Bar
bados he breakfasted with Col. Roose-
welt as guests Of the American Consul
there and the two explorers compared
research notes. The expedition is now
on the second half Of its hazardous
undertakings, in the west of Brazil.
The expedition already has yielded
data of immense interest to anthro-
biologists. and if DR.. Farahee does no
more than he has already dune by
bringing to light the Wai-wai and a
dozen other tribes, then the project
has paid its promoters many times
over in interest.
The university spent thousands of
ollar not many years ago exploring
in the East. There are in its mu-
scum tablets from ancient Babylon
dating back to 1000 II. g. and 5000
Is. c. that record the story of the Crea-
ton of man and show that Eden was
an actual part of Babylon. Essentially
the same story and the same claim are
made in that part of South America
now explored.
DR.. Farabee claims to have a flood
legend from these Indian tribes almost
identical with the Biblical story of
Noah.
In the beginning-so at least say the
Wai-wai-there Were two gods,
Tuminkar and his brother Duwid.
Tuminkar it was who created men
and women, and afterward the ami
mails. Duwid brought men and women
food. Day after day he came with
fruits and vegetables IN great va
riety and profusion for them to eat, so
they were grateful and rendered him
hanks But, having nothing to do,
the first men and women amused their
idleness by watching the animals. At
length they noted that all these were
in the habit Of passing in one direc-
ton In the morning of each day, and
returning toward the other in the eve
ming. So they said: LET us go with
the animals and see where they go
and what they do"
They followed, and came with the
animals to a great tree bearing on its
branches all kinds of fruits and vege-
tables. ON the ground under the tree
lay quantities Of these fruits and vege-
tables upon which the animals fed
each day. And there was plenty for
all. So the men and women took and
ate. Then they said among them
selves: This is where the god Duwid
gets our food. Let us hereafter come
and get 1t ourselves, and we will not
have to trouble to thank the god for
it,"
Thereupon they told Duwid next
day that he need moi bring them food
any more, for they knew where to get
II themselves.
at shall be as you wish" replied
Duwid, "but henceforth you must
work TO obtain the food to eat. To-
morrow the tree will be cut down, but

complete accord. There are no wars
between these primitives.
The women Of the tribes are magnif-
cent creatures. like shining bronze
statues, with blue black hair and Won
derful eyes. The men are splendid OF

the Wai-wai chieftain proves. They

1t Is really the Make, and is called
by them the mdshekd, or peanut vine
dance. This, which is a rite among
all Indian tribes In this corner Of the
globe. was picked up by some Brazil
ians and taken down to Rio Janelro,
where it's teachers developed 1t into a
crude and unlOvely dance, largely sug-
gestive. Later It was carried over to
Paris, expurgated and taught to the
Parisians. 1t was modified still more

America they found the mainland

piratical. warning crew. who preyed
upon the Arowaks. a mild. agriculture
loving tribe. 1t is not certain whether
the Arowaks lived on the Caribbean
islands or were driven there by
the Cards. but it Is certain that the
latter made raids in their war canoes
upon the islands. and also drove the
few poor Arowaks OF the mainland up
into the highest mountains.
When the Spaniard came he set
about putting an end to both tribes.
The Arowak succumbed with little re-
sistance, but the Caribs fought long,
and many of them fled into the noun
tains. DR.. Farabee believed that the
descendants of these two tribes still
dwell in the Tumac-Humac range, and
his purpose was to find them.
AT first all went well with the ex-
petition. They plunged further and
further into unknown territory, maxi
ing their way from tribe to tribe and
studying manners and customs. taking
pictures, collecting chronological speci-
mems. Mr.. Ogilvie with his gift of
tongues made friends with each tribe,
and they Sent runners ahead to an

and follow it to the coast. The enor-
nous mountain ranges soon made this
aim impossible. SO they decided to
follow the Esequibo to its mouth, a
feat not yet accomplished by white
men. They thought hat the water
way could be followed easily and that
supplies would be obtained all along
its shores.
Disaster and mishap pursued them.
To make Roadway along the swamps
that lined the river was out Of the
question. Frail pirogues were con-
structed from the bark Of native trees
and perilous progress gained in this
way. Whenever 1t was practicable
these were given up and the men took

and ultimately sent over to the United
States.
By the beginning Of the year the
expedition began to suffer from dis
ease and fatigue. The way was be-
coming more and more impossible and
they found their supplies too heavy.
II was decided to send a part OF the
force back to Melville's with Dr..
Church. He was to take packs Of the
photographs, note books and specimens
with him: as much as could be carried.
This detachment suffered great
hardship on the journey and arrived
at Melville's with little Of their load.
The remainder of the expedition,
headed by DIR. Farabee and Mr..
Ogilvie, strove eastward. believing that

MANS SHORT TERM OF LIFE
In Comparison With other Animals
He Does Not Nearly Live Out
His Allotted Time.

A rule which holds fairly true among
the higher animals is that an animal
lives five times as long as 1t requires
for his muscular system to reach it's
full strength. The dog is fully devel-
oped at between two and three years
of age. and lives fifteen years; the
horse reaches his prime not later than
FIVE, and If he escapes overwork and
i'll usage, lives to be twenty-five and
even thirty In fact, the rule seems to
be an understatement of animal ex.
pectation of life, rather than an over
statement.
The one conspicuous exception Is
man, who seldom reaches his full mus
cular strength before he is twenty-five
and counts himself living on borrowed
time II he passes the age of seventy
II man were as well circumstanced in
this matter as the horse, dog or cat,
his average term OF life would vary
from one hundred and ten to one hun
dred and twenty-five years.
