Test of Application.

lest OF Appllcatlon. theory of the
evolution of the chin, as Influenced by
purely physiological causes. commands
the more attention. But it appears
that the chin students by no means
agree. Thus Sir Lancaster, while will
ing to accept the theory that the chin
was developed because of the feminine
admiration for that feature, points out
that this would account rather for a
development of the cartilaginous tip
than the skeletal portions. 1t is not the
hard and bony chin. but the broad and
smooth one. which makes the feminine
heart f1utter. Sir Lancaster accord
ingly argues that the padlike cover
ing of the chin is all that could be de-
veloped by the sex influence. and that
we will have to look to more purely
anatomical causes for the growth of
its bony framework.
Furthermore, he believes that the
rude and Earring conditions OF prtmor-
dial existence have more to do with
the development of this pad or cushion
on the chin than has female taste in
the matter AS every boxer knows. a
blow upon the chin. by causing con-
cussion of the brain, is one of the
surest knockouts Now. when man
climbed down out of the trees and pro-
ceeded to combat the dinosaurs and
for a place in the sun he was in siren
uous need of some such protection. The
chin pad grew, because only those who
had them survived to propagate the
race.
There are a few reservations which
must be made before accepting any
view which deprives the chin of all
significance in the human physiognomy.
1t is an undoubted fact. for example,
that the chin is drawn, upward and
made more prominent as the individual
develops physically. Thus in childhood
the chin is always of less proportionate
size than in adult life. The develop
ment of new passions and appetites as
the individual advances toward ma
turity seems undoubtedly to account
for this. To the keen observer the alb
normally up-drawn chin is as plain
an indication of self-indulgence as the
bleary eye.
Again. there can be no doubt tina.
a deep jaw, with long. well rounded
curve. is the indication of a vital phys
ical being; and such a jaw is more apt
to end in a fairly prominent chin than
the reverse.
On the whole, however, the scientific
investigators seem to have knocked the
physiognomists into cooked hat. The
owners Of large and impressive chins
need no longer feel that they are,
therefore, persons of unusual will and
energy, unless they have demonstrated
the fact. More important yet, the in
dividual whose chin intrudes but slight
ly over the edge of his collar need no,
longer lack confidence in his powers
either mental or moral.

More Teeth Possessed
BY Prehistoric Man


AS the teeth dwindled. the upper jaw
naturally receded. bringing the lower
one into prominence. Look at the pro-
file Of any aged person who has lost all
of the upper teeth, and you will see
exactly what DR.. Hrdlicka means.
So there are four explanations of the
big chin. any one OF which will deprive
it of all significance as an index To
character. and make II about as I'm
portant an anatomical feature as the
third toe of a horse.
The old school of physiognomists.
who firmly believed in the big chin. and
assigned all sorts OF fine qualities TO
1t, did not proceed by this analytical
and historical method. They simply
and tried to classify them according
to the qualities that seemed to accom-
pany them. In this way they cot yo-
luminous II not important results. Lev
alter, who published his book In 1901.
was long the established authority on
chins. and he had them divided into
three classes and many different
grades. To repeat his conclusions
would be impossible here: but suffice
it to say that the large, square. I'm
nign. generous and strong, while the
narrow and receding chin was as
cribed to the weak, misery and cum
ming.
Or course. any NUMBER OF prominent
men can be cited as examples to prove
these rules. The American Presidents.
for example. from Washington to Will
son. with the possible exception of
Tyler, are striking examples of the
well developed chin. What the old
physiognomist seems to have over
looked is the number of successful,
efficient and law abiding citizens who
could boast Of many things. but very
little chin. julius Caesar late of
Rome. for instance, made considerable
of reputation in war. literature and
politics. although he had very little
chin, if we can believe the many rep-
reservations of him that have come
down to US.

Kenosha County will Receive this Sum
From the State for Aid of
Common Schools.

Kenosha county will receive from
the state this year 1885 for the edu-
cation Of each child of school age in
the county. The annual apportion-
ment of the school income fund was
made on Tuesday and the total set
apart for Kenosha county was $780,
096,70. This money is secured by the
state from fines paid and licenses col
lected and the apportionment is equal
to the amount of school taxes levied
by the county at the recent meeting
of the county board The report of the
secretary of state shows that there are
798,703 children of school age in the
state and the apportionment of the
fund is made to counties in keeping
with the number Of children who have
the right to claim education from the
state and county. The entire fund was
not apportioned this year as the state
retained a fund amounting to $4,000
which will be later apportioned to rural
communities for aid in paying the sal
aries of teachers. The amount that
the county. receives from the state is
just about the same as was paid to the
county in 1914.

ARREST. INSURANCE MAN.
w. E. Hall of Chicago Held on Charge
of Soliciting for an Unlicensed
Company in Kenosha. 81. 80

W. E. Hall Of Chicago, a solicitor
for the Central Business Men s Insur-
ance company Of Chicago, was arrested
in Kenosha Tuesday evening and is be-
ing held at the county jail pending an
investigation by the district attorney
and the state commissioner of insur-
ance. Hall has been working in Keno
sha for some time and it is said that
he has sold several policies to Kenosha
business and professional men. Dis
trict Attorney Drury took the matter
up with the insurance commissioner on
Tuesday and he ordered the immediate
arrest of Hail. The insurance commits
sioner declared that the Chicago COM
pany had applied to the state of Wis
consin for a license and that it had
been refused on the grounds that the
examination of the company was not
satisfactory to the state. Hall and his
wife had been guests Of local hotel
and nearly all the business written by
him had been written among business
and professional men. Mrs. Hall had
no part in the business and she was
not held by the police. It is expected
that the deputies of the insurance COM
missioner will come to Kenosha and
aid the district attorney in the further
prosecution of the case.

DON'T WASTE A PENNY.
Anti tuberculosis Association Is Good
Financier and Efficient
Manager.

Regarding the work of the Wisconsin
Anti tuberculosis association and it's
strong claim upon the people of Wis
consi for support, Samuel hopkins
Adams, the well known author who
came west purposely to investigate the
organization and its method of serving
the public, says:
Two qualities in the work of the
Wisconsin Anti tuberculosis associa-
ton have strongly impressed me. They
are experiences in method and concen-
tration of effort. Every dollar is en-
ergized to tie power of ten. Every
penny of every dollar is directed to the
association Is guiding purpose of health
education, the education which teaches
people 50 to live that they may escape
consumption.
Each year the cry goes up from a
widening area, Come over into Mace
donna and help us. Each year the over
strained, manned, courageous
and self devoting little band of work
ers are harder put to it to meet the
appeal which means life and death to
so many.
"They are fighting the fight Of the
whole people, and they need and de-
serve the support of no less than the
whole people. If there is any other
public work in this country returning
equal dividends of service, I do not
know it.
The democracy of the plan by which
the entire educational work of the
Wisconsin Anti-Tuberculosis associa-
ton is financed through the selling of
Red Cross Christmas Seals appealed
strongly to Mr.. Adams. He was great
" impressed with the extent of the
work that has been made possible by
the pennies of the people.

CITY TO BUILD FOUNDATION
Cost of Restoring the Sewer Will Be
in the Neighbofhood of $500 and
Council Will Let Bids for the
Work on Friday.

The city of Kenosha and Contractor
James Kennedy, in charge of the con-
struction of the intercepting sewer, are
going to split fifty fifty of the cost Of
rebuilding the one hundred and eighty
five feet of the concrete sewer which
slipped into the Kenosha river last
Thursday. It is understood, however,
that before the sewer is restored the
city must provide for foundation for
it and the cost of the foundation is
to be paid by the city.
The committee which had been in
vestigating the slipping of the sewer
into the river, brought in a report in
which it recommended that the only
way that foundation could be secur-
ed for the sewer would be to put in five
thousand feet of piling. This it is
understood will cost in the neighbor-
hood of two thousand dollars. In
addition to this a concrete foundation
must be bulk on top of the piling to
hold the sewer. Contractor Kennedy
was on hand and while he declared
that he recognized no responsibility
for the accident he would be willing to
pay part of the cost of restoring the
sewer. The original cost of the sewer
was $S.46 running foot and the re-
port of the committee provided that
the city should not pay in excess of
four dollars a foot for the new sewer.
The bids for the driving of the piles
are to be opened at meeting of the
street assessment committee to be held
Friday afternoon. This will make it
possible for the council to let contracts
at the meeting on Monday night. It
looks as if the cost to the city for the
restoring of the sewer will be in the
'neighborhood of thirty-fve hundred
dollars.
The question of the blame for the
accident was discussed at length by
the members of the council and the
committee and the decision reached
was that everything possible had been
done to get a proper foundation for
the sewer. The committe seemed to
be Of the opinion that the city could
not hold the contractor for the restora-
tion of the sewer
There was a lot of discussion in regard
to provisions of specifications under
which sewers are built in Kenosha. but
in none of this discussion was any
remedy proposed.
The city plan for the sewer could not
be carried out without the stretch of
sewer which went into the river and
the nature of the ground is such that
it will be impossible to build any sewer
permanently without first making a
foundation. It is not expected that
the carrying out of this plan will inter
fere with the completion Of the sewer.
