PROMINENT TRAITS IN DOGS
In Many Ways They Are Much Like
Human Beings, and In Some
Ways Above Them.

Mrs. E. Y. Eltonhead has resently
completed an interesting study Of hu-
man characteristics in dogs. Among
her findings are these:
Grief is a certain characteristic,
for many dogs have sought the miss
ing ones and have watched their lives
away on the graves Of the ones to
whom their lives were devoted
"Self-respect Is evident to anyone
who has made study Of dogs. Frolic
and play are developed from puppy
hood until real old age stiffens mus
cles and loss of teeth forbids the car
rying Of ball or other plaything.
"Shrewdness Is a trait, for where a
dog has been pet and child enters
into the family you will see at once
the sulkiness and dislike shown by
the usurped one and sometimes even
a tendency to revenge on one who
caused the change.
Zone trait that is especially human
is lacking in dogs They do not pre-
tend to do what they do not feel and
mean, and in this mankind can take
them as model with benefit to tho
world OF men
Jealousy is trait met with both
in fine and common dogs. and the
more loyal the dog is the more likely
he is to be jealous Of another dog
sharing in the affection of his master
and mistress"

1t was a happy thought, and Mrs.
Black lost no time in sending for Mrs.
Swan.
The result Of the interview was that
Mrs. Swan agreed to occupy booth in
Mrs. Blacks exhibit for the nine days
of the show. The arrangement was
that Mrs, Black was to pay the ex-
penses of the exhibition and Mrs.
Swan was to make what money she

New England conscience" and a

At the exhibition Mrs. Swan made
use of this peculiar gift. People who
came to her had but to name some
thing they were thinking about and
Mrs. Swan would cut out her impress
sion of it.
"Cut out your impression of love"
suggested the sentimental schoolgirl
as she deposited her fifteen cents be-
fore Mrs. Swan, who Immediately be-
gan to snip the paper. Then she held
out a perfect silhouette of her impress
sion--a mixture Of goblin and Gu
pid, with large ears and cane in his
hand.
"He has a cane," Mrs. Swan ex-
planned, because he is totally blind.
His large ears show that he Is eager
to hear things, and there are little
horns on his head, too, to show that
love likes to be little devilish, but
really can't"
Her next visitor, dreamy poet,
asked for "elation over the approach
of spring." Someone else suggested
militant suffragette and then came
such various suggestions as plum pud-
: ding, mischief, a gloom, wine, prickly
heat-this from an anxious young
mother. Always Mrs. Swan was quick

proved herself to be silhouette cut

the expedition was conducted by the
archeologist no fewer than $50 ruins
exist, many Of which range in size
from 100 to 1000 rooms In addition
to these ruins the archeologist found
many dwelling places followed out in
the cliff walls. dwelling places which
date back possibly 1000 years. In
one of these followed dwelling places
Mr.. and Mrs. Nelson established their
headquarters. They became cliff
dwellers Of the twentieth century
while delving into the history of the
past.
The mesas there rise to height
over the fiat desert country, where the
ruins Of pueblos bear traces of the
early civilization, the powders carved
with prehistoric photographs, crude
drawings representing various animals
the deer, horse, the thunder bird
and occasionally human being The
plumed or horned serpent often ap-
pears in these ancient photographs,
probably symbolical design. The
coyote, the boar and hunters equipped
with shields, BOWS and arrows are also
revealed in these fantastic picto-
graphs.
Pottery in the Ruins.
While excavating among the ruins
OF an ancient pueblo, about thirty
miles or more southwest of Santa Fee,
Mr.. Nelson found in a refuse heap
layers Of different examples Of pot
terry. At the base Of this heap he
found examples of painted ware. In
the layer above different types of
glazed ware were disclosed, and in the
last layer Of this pottery the pieces
found corresponded with the period of
the Spanish occupation. From about
1880 to the present time-the modern
period-no glazed ware existed, only
painted examples Of the potter's art.
Archeologically the old heap Of ruins
has yielded the most important dis
covery of the museums expedition.
It is now possible since Mr.. Mel.
sons discovery Of these various types
Of pottery, some of which are prehis-
toric, to classify these ancient pueblos
in New Mexico into three or four diff
ferent chronological groups. Thus
this old pottery, which dates back
1000 or 1000 years, may lead to the
unraveling of prehistoric times. 1t may
prove the key to the mysterious pre-
historic period. Something may be
learned by the psychologists about the
migration Of these people, and ideas
can be formulated as to the direction
from which their migration took place.
Later investigations will show, it is
hoped, the origin of these prehistoric
people ultimately.
