The question having arisen. WV

seem willing TO answer Il with another
question, How would the cat look
without. a. tailr' No one can gainsay

that the tail serves the cat as sort OF
gyroscope. balancing the body IN leap
ing This cannot be wholly true, for
Manx cats get along very well without
tails, and rabbits have no use for them
at all. Yet both the Manx cats and rab-
bits do q lot OF leapfng. After all. It
looks as IL the tail is only an ornament.
unless 1t Is a kind OF safety valve Tor
expression in exciting times.
OF course, there are instances whore
the tail serves some purpose other than
that of art The monkey dnds his use
full as a sort of fifth leg: the horse uses
his as fly swatter. as does the lion:
the crocodile uses his for swimming, as
do the seal and the turtle and other
aquatic creatures. and the rattlesnake
uses his for warning his enemies.
According to w. d. Matthews Of the
American Museum OF Natural History.
the tail was a necessary organ for the
aquatic and mphibious ancestors from
which the higher animals are descended.
When they took to terrestrial life and
to walking on all fours. the tail became
more or less supernuous.

OLD CHINESE BOOKS.
Printed From Wooden Blocks and
Numerous in Tenth Century.

From Oriental News and Comment.
Printing from blocks is said to have
been invented in China in 5s2 A. D.,
during the enlightened reign of Yank
Chen. the founder of the progressive
but short-lived Sui dynasty. Printed
books. however. did not compete with
manuscripts until the middle of the
tenth century. From that time block
printing developed very rapidly. re-
sulting in a great cheapening and wide
diffusion of books and the consequent
rapid decline of the copyist's trade. No
dobt the rapid dissemination of learn
ing this entailed had much to do with
the great intellectual progress made In
China during the Sung dynasty. from
$50 to 1880 A. D., which has been called
the "protracted Augustan age of Chi
nese literature"
Disregarding' the manuscript works
of the great Tang dynasty (61s<s0!
A. Do. which were doubtless tenfold
more numerous and more important
than the cotemporaneous literary
works of the whole western world. the
printed books of the Sung Yuan and
the early part Of the Ming dynasties
up to the middle of the fifteenth cen
Europe. They existed in countless
thousands of volumes. In 1906 the I'm
perial Ming Library contained printed
works to the extent of more than 300.-
900 chuan sbooks) and more than twice
as many manuscripts. and already many
printed works of the Sung dynasty
had been lost during the disorders in
cident to the protracted wars with the
Mongols. Undoubtedly more books
were printed in China than in all the
rest of the world UP to the middle OF
the seventeenth or the beginning of the
eighteenth century.
The great bulk of Chinese works
aside from the Confucian classics. is
historical or literary. the latter being
mostly, essays, short poems, or cri-
tilues.s- There exists also vast Bed
dhistsc literature and very many Taofs'
Novals are not even classed as lit
erature.-- although famous ones exist
and some of. them have been translated
into european languages. There are
also many famous dramas, some dating
from the Yuan dynasty. but these, too
Chinese photographers. The historical
records of the Chinese are of vast bull
and represent conscientious and
painstaking record OF the political an6
sociological experiences of the oldest
civilized nation on earth. In close
connection with these records prope,
we should consider the vast number OF
geographic treatises and especially the
so-called gaZetteerS. These latter are
official publications issued by the en-
pire. province. district, or even town
ship. and treat not only geography and
topography proper but also the antiq.
uities. natural and manufactured prod.
ucts. and even the biographies of ia
nous men. population. taxes, astroi-
ogy, marvellous happenings. etc.
