Appropriately, this is christened
Sun Temple. In addition to the value
of the sun-worship symbols, it affords
also an estimate of the age of the
Mesa Verde ruins. By record of the
annual rings of large juniper tree
that had fortuitously grown upon the
mound of debris, at least 800 years
had elapsed since the tree took root.
When the temple was abandoned is
difficult to declare, for such DEBRIS

remarkable building back to the year

Mesa Verde National park

have demonstrated that here the Unit

lest compact area Of prehistoric hui
man-dwelling ruins in the world. They
are ruins far more accessible than
those of South America, for instance,
and equally as fascinating.
Interest both scientific and popular
has been heightened lately by the new
discoveries made. For a time the
Mesa Verde ruins were assumed to
be mainly cliff-dwellings pure and
simple-confned to those ancient
homes built in the immense recesses
of the shelf-rock on the steep slopes
of the canyons. But the remains OF
other masonry structures, religious
and domestic, evidently extend all
over the mesa.

Familiarity Breeds Ignorance.
One Of the peculiar things noted by
men who watch the blackboards in the
offices of Wall street brokers, is that
the commission-house operator who is
continually studying the quotations
cannot tell you offhand if the market
is up or down. When asked the ques-
ton he starts bit, looks at the board
again, names prices Of prominent
stocks, quite as much for his own in
formation as for yours, and then an
nounces his conclusions. This pecul-
iarity, however, is really no more re-
markable than the habit Of the man
on the street who will take out his
watch, look at it, and put it back in
his pocket. If you should ask him
what the time really was, he would
have to take it out again.
