Ancient Artisans in Africa.

The question has often been asked:
Was there any earlier race in Occupa-
ton of the area in Africa at present
held by the Bantus? In Man ". II.
Beech reports that in the kikuyu coun-
try some ancient pottery has been said
to be the work OF people called Gum
ba, who displaced the Miathoachiana.
cannibal dWarfS.
These Miathoachiana are now be-
lieyed to be earth-gnomes, skilled in
the art of iron working. Mr.. Beech,
with some amount of plausibility, Sug-
gests that they were possibly bush
men, pygmies, or both. and that they
were a local indigenous race of the
stone age who used flint instruments
often found in the kikuyu country.
The Gumba are said to have made
pottery and to have taught the Kikuyu
the art of smelling. They may have
been pre-Bantau Hamite invaders; but
of this there is no evidence and the
legend may tend to show that the
first discovery of iron was made in
Africa.

MOST ABLE MEN NOT LARGE
Only Medium or Even Less
in Size.

We are inclined to look up 10 the
physically big man, not only literally
but there is always a certain preSump-
ton in his favor that he must be cor
respondingly strong mentally, says
writer in Popular Mechanics. People
make room for him; they attach more
Importance usually to what he says
than to the same words uttered by an
understood man. We uncOnsciOusly
picture in our minds the bayOnct
charge and stOrming of the trenches as
the work OF large men The boy
dreams of having a football physique
and little sister worships her big
brother.
Other abilities being equal, the large
man has positive advantage over the
small man. And yet many, if not the
majority Of the great men OF the world
have been only Of medium build and
not few We're even understood.
4 certain large city in this country
had for years made it Il rule not to
employ in its fire department any
but large men. The result was a
small army OF athletes which never
failed to cause a positive thrill when
ever they went on parade. They dis
tinctly represented the day Of physi-
cal might
For some years past the inventive
mind has been busy. and very sue
cessfully. to produce apparatus which
never tires. and calculated to trans
fer to a great extent the hard work
from muscle to machine. The evil
dences of this evolution may be seen
in even small towns everywhere, and
now the fire engine drawn BY vOlun-
teers and worked with hand brakes
must be looked for in museums of
strange mechanics Of the past. In its
place is the seif-propelled gas-engined
machine, carrying its own hose and
capable of highly effective work with
only two men; and ladder trucks by
means of which one small man ma
nipulating some short levers can in
a few seconds raise great ladders to
dizzy heights, or pour deluge Of
water into tenth-stOry windows while
standing in the street below. Hence
it has come about that the man small
of stature. but nimble of body and
alert OF mind is not only the peer, but
often the superior of the giant in
build. There yet remains some work
for the big athletes, but it is growing
less each year, and the man whom
nature has not endowed with great
physical strength is coming into his
own.

HOT WEATHER MEALS
COMBINATIONS THAT GO WELL IN
THE SUMMER.
Hot savory and Cold Salad Are A.
ways to Be Recommended-Some
Suggestions That Are Worth
Remembering.

A hot savory and cold salad make
a good combination for the summer
luncheon, and the savory is a useful
dish for the disposition of leftover
scraps of meat, fish. etc.
The foundation Of savory is usually
a triangle on finger of buttered brown
bread toast, or fried bread, pastry or
biscuit. The filling may be varied in
definitely. and its arrangement de-.
pends upon available materials.
Here are a few suggestions for the
use of materials common to all house
holds:
Tomato Toast.-Half an ounce OF
butter, two ounces Of grated cheese.
one tablespoonful of tomato; paprika.
Melt the butter and add the tomato
(either canned or fresh steWed) then
the grated cheese; sprinkle with papri-
ka and heat on the stove. Cut bread
into rounds or small squares, fry and
pour over each slice the hot tomato
mixture.
Ham Toast Mince little leftover
boiled ham very finely. Warm it in a
pan with piece of butter. Add lit
the pepper and paprika, When very
hot pile on hot buttered toast. Any
leftover scraps of fish or meat may be
used up in a similar way, and make
an excellent savory to serve with q
green salad.
Sardine Savories.-Sardines, one
hard-boiled egg, brown bread, pars.
lev. Cut the brown bread into strips
and butter them. Remove the skin
and the bones from the sardines and
lay one fish on each finger of the
bread. Chop the white Of the egg
into fine pieces and rub the yolk
through strainer. Chop the parsley
very fine and decorate each sardine
with layers of the white, the yolk
and the chopped parsley. Season with
pepper and salt.
Oyster Savories.-These make a
more substantial dish, and are deli
cious when served with celery salad:
Six oysters, six slices of bacon, fried
bread, seasoning. Cut very thin strips
of bacon; the bacon that can be pur-
chased already shaved is best for the
purpose. Season the oysters with pep
per and salt, and wrap each in a
slice of the bacon, pinning 1t together
with a wooden splint "a toothpick)
Place each oyster on round OF toast
or of fried bread, and cook in the
oven for about five minutes. Serve
very hot, and sprinkle with pepper.
Cheese Savories.-Butter slices of
bread and sprinkle over them o nsiA
ture of grated cheese and paprika. Set
them in a pan and place the pan IN
the oven, leaving it there until the
bread is colored and the cheese set.
Serve very hot.

Uses Of Pineapple Juice.

The juice left from canned pine.
apple is fine for use during the can
ming season to impart flavor to taste
less fruits, as the pear. A pint of
juice added to the water in which
pears are cooking gives it an excel
lent flavor. For canning the pine
apple is often put up in grated form,
or after being run through a chop
per. Although it may be served in
various forms, the fruit is so excel.
lent that the simplest form is as
good as any. Sprinkle a little sugar
over the slices about an hour before
wanted and set in the refrigerator.
If the fruit is quite ripe when served
very little extra sugar is needed, but,
like all other tropical fruits when sent
North, it has to be gathered in green
state and is seldom found quite rip
ened from the field.
No fruit lends itself with greater
readiness than the pineapple to coax
ing art of the canneries and the pre-
serving factories.

Report of Army Board.
The full text of the army board report
on the size and caliber and offensive
power of coast defense guns was present
ed to the committee by the secretary and
made public for the first time. 1t reads:
After full consideration Of the ques-
ton presented by the Secretary of War
the board finds.
THAT the old type 12-inch guns and
mortars are not equal in range and power
to ma jor-caliber guns af1oat.
THAT by such minor changes in the
carriage of the old type 12-inch gun at
present emplaced as will permit an eleva-
tion of Il degrees, and by the provision
of certain proportion of lighter pro-
jectiles of approximately 700 pounds
weight, an effective range of about 10000
yards can be given these guns; that these
changes should be made;
THAT the great majority of our IA
inch guns, with certain slight changes
which have already been ordered and by
the supply of portion of the projectiies
of lighter weight than the heaviest now
furnished. are suitable in power and
range to meet any that may now be
brought against them.
THAT the present emplacements are. as
a whole. satisfactory, with the possible
exception of some of the older magazines,
which should be more thoroughly pro-
tected against plunging fire; that this
protection should be furnished.
THAT d policy should be adopted of
providing, through annual appropria-
tions, for such undermining of fortifica-
tions as will result in keeping pace
af1oat.
That in the case of those works
where undermining involves very ex-
tensive changes in emplacements, gun
carriages, etc. it will be policy to con-
struct new works and provide new
armaments adequate for the demands
of the situation.
Old Works Should Be Held.
That the old works should be held,
when practicable and desirable, as a
secondary line OF defense.
THAT wherever it may be necessary
to construct new works, especially at
important points, such as the entrances
Of our principal harbors. naval bases.
at least a siXteen-inch forty-five-
caliber gun. mounted SO as to have the
greatest possible protection and an
all-around fire where it may be neces-
sary to have such fire.
That the mortars to be installed in
future should be of not less than
twelve-inch caliber, with a range of at
least 1000 yards.
That this weapon should be the
numerically preponderant type i'll our
coast defenses, as it is cheap. has a
long life. can be easily protected. is
very effective against ships, and can
be used as a valuable adjunct for the
land defense. 1t must not, however, at
any important point be adopted to the
exclusion. of high-poWer direct fire
guns.
.DThe general poIicy with reference to
seacoast defenses should be to have
the armament there emplaced of
greater range and power than any
which can be brought against it"
