THROW OFF MUCH MOISTURE
Remarkable Amount Of Water EN
hailed From skin Of FuIl-crown
Man in Twenty-Four Hours.

The skin Of a full-grown man ex.
haIes in "a hours, in ordinary circum-
stances, from one and a half to two
pounds Of water in insensible perspi-
ration. When. in hot weather. or in
undergoing violent exertion. the per
spiration becomes sensible. and instead
Of exhaling in a gentle moisture is
thrown on in large drops OF water. a
much greater weight is disposed Of in
this way.
The action Of this exhalation takes
place through glands. Il does not seem
so strange that the human body can
throw OF nearly two pints Of water
daily. so gradually and so gently that
It is not felt as moisture. when we re-
member how many glands there are
and how very small each atom of
moisture must Oe. On the back, the
thighs and legs there are about 500
perspiratory glands to the square
inch Of skin; on the breast, the fore
head, neck. forearm and back of the
hand and foot. about 1000 to the
square inch. and on the sole Of the
foot and on the palm OF the hand
2.7O0.
II Is estimated that the number oi
perspiratory glands over the whole
body is not less than 100000, and AZ
each tubular coil In the glands wher
unraveled Is about onefifteenth OF an
inch in length the entire extent o.
tubing used to throw on perspira
ton Is not less than $4,000 inches. OF
nearly two and one-half miles.

Prehistoric Men of Brains.
I'VE find that in man, as in most
animals, it is not the man with the
bigger jaws and the bigger muscles
that has survived. but the man hay
ing the better brain. The 'Pithecan.
thropus' and the 'Neanderthar man
with low-vaulted skulls have died
out, while man with lofty-vaulted
skulls are found to have survived
through 100000 years."
Prof. Keith reaches the very inter.
esting conclusion that the human
branch Of mans family tree gave rise
in ancient times to at least foul
species of men, the Pithecanthropus
the Neanderthal, the Piltdown ant

skull.
Eat first, as was natural, the Mean
derthal and Pithecanthropus skulls
we're thought to be the ancestral
skulls of modern man, even though
1t was difficult to believe that the
inferior skull could so quickly have
developed into the superior modern
one.
This theory was soon overthrown,
for skulls Of earlier date than the
Neanderthal skulls were found al.

and was at least 10000 years old.
However, in any large modern popu-
lation on the western side OF Europe
individuals with heads of a very SIM
liar shape and size can be found, and
a cast Of the brain would show a pat
tern not inferior to the pattern OF
the average European.
