FIND HUMAN GIANTS TOOTH
Can You Imagine an Ancient Man With
Molar That Weighed Two
Ounces2

Pittsburg, Kan.-Can you imagine
weigh four ounces, tooth which
would take wire cable to pull? Such
tooth has been found in q coal bed,
more than 600 feet under the ground.
The tooth was found about two miles
northwest of Pittsburg, in coal
mine. Dentists claim that, because of
certain formations, it could be nothing
but grinder from the head Of Il pre-
historic man. While it is light and ap-
pears to be bone, 1t is in perfect state
Of petrification.
The prehistoric giant, who had such
tooth, easily could have opened his
mouth u inches wide. He must have
been about II feet in height and able
to take a six-foot step.
1t is practically impossible to de-
termine at what age this man lived,
but 1t must have been many years
before the birth Of Christ, because Of
the depth at which the tooth was
found. However, it is possible that
the molar could have been placed that
deep In mother earth by an upheaval
at some time.
The coal mine in which II was
found has been In operation many
years and Is one of the deepest In the
country.
Many persons at first believed the
tooth was that Of prehistoric ami
NAL rather than Of a man. However,
II was taken to several dentists, who
said that, because Of certain forwa-
tons In the human tooth, which are
absent in teeth of animals, the molar
must have been that Of a prehistoric
human being.

Vincent Aston and Other Rich New
York Young Men Are Show

New York.-Vincent Astor and other
gilded young men here are pupils Of
New York navigation school which
makes speciality of preparing candi.
dates for Annapolis. L.
Mr.. Astor Is not going to try kr
Annapolis. He's twenty-five yeRrs
old and married, and so barred from
the academy. But his interest In pre-
paredness Is so keen that he is taking
this means to increase his efficiency
as an officer Of the Volunteer Patrol
squadron, a fleet of power boats suit
able for scout and other duty.
Several other members of the pa
troll squadron are enrolled In Captain
Uttmark's school. Among them is Her.
mann Oelrichs, son and heir Of the
late Hermann Oelrichs. Other pupils
are Orson d. Mum, son Of the founder
OF the Scientific American; Paul l..
Hammond and Sigmund Cohn, all
members Of the squadron.
Although Mr.. Aston joined the pa
troll last summer, his interest seemed
more in airplane training. He en-
rolled last May in the aeronautical
corps of the Second Naval Reserve
battalion and helped to raise $4,000
for hydro-airplane. The year before
he had hydro-airplane built and was
taught to operate II by his pilot, Cliff

KILLS HER INCURABLE PETS
Mrs. Agnes Brasby Buys Dogs and
Cats That Are Sick and
Nurses Them.

Cleveland.-The pastime of Mrs.
Agnes Barsby is buying animal pets
and chloroforming them. She Is not
cruel or hard-hearted, for 1t is only
sick animals which are put out of
their misery.
Mrs. Barsby is a regular customer
at all Cleveland animal stores. Dur
ing the Christmas shopping season she
bought two cats and two dogs. She
found she couldn't make them well, so
she killed them.
81 bought those pets because they
were sick and suffering" explained
Mrs. Barsby. 81 knew they should be
killed II I couldn't cure them"
II. X. Ferry, municipal humane
agent, says there isn't greater friend
Of dumb brutes in Cleveland than Mrs.
Barsby. The latchstring at her home
Is always out to an unfortunate dog
or cat, and children in the neighbor-
hood take their ailing pets there to be
cured.

To Prof. Marguerite Zelenka the
war seems like an unbidden intruder
who has come TO interrupt all the i'm
portant things In the world--and one
of the important things In the study
of the anthropoid ape-at least to
Frau Zelenka. The Munich lady sci
enlist arrived In this country to at
tend meeting of the American As
ISOLATION for the Advancement Of Sci
ence. When the session is owe he
will visit her uncle in CalIfornI AZ
while there will visit the abor hes
and study the soul life and songs Of
the American Indian, not forgetting to
peep at the anthropological material
the United States affords.
Frau Zelenka is almost ."the" author
ity on anthropoids. This study has
been her life work. During her trav-
els In search of knowledge of this sub
Ject she has made explorations In Java,
Ceylon, and Asia. In 1907 the Japa-
nese government put 100 men at her
disposal for two years; they dug and
worked without asking her TO pay one
penny to the government. The gov
eminent also assigned soldiers to
guard the workers who were Malay
prisoners.
Just before the war broke out she
had arranged for an expedition ~ Cey-
lon, but had to give It up. On be- ~
vious visit to Ceylon she came In con-
tact with a remnant of primitive
tribe and made Photographic records
of their songs.

DEATH OF ADAM MELVILLE

The past week the early settlers of
the Beaulieu district Of Olga town
ship had occasion to mourn the pas
sing of another of the old pioneers.
when the time came for Adam Mel
Vile to answer the final summons.
His last illness has covered upwards
of a year past. Although less than
sixty years of age he had been a resi-.
dent of the community in which he
died almost continuously since 1879.
With the exception of a brother and
the immediate family of the deceased
all the relatives have moved away the
past few years. The funeral held
Tuesday from the home was given a
large attendance. The interment in
the cemetery was given the rites of

Law has wrested the state out of

No wonder the republican convention
pronounced it an "absolnte failure'
and proceeded to disregard it by Sc
lecting a candidate whom the people
are permitted to vote for, and sub
scribed $4,000 to put him across. Will
the voters be good and march up to

HAIL STORM DAMAGES CROB

Reports gathered from over the
county since the hail storm of Satur-
day afternoon would indicate the
storm was heaviest and possibly dam.
aged the crop to some extent in the.
north and northeastern parts of the
county and evidently was quite light
at nearly all points to the south of
Langdon. To the west of here it is
learned that the storm was confined
nearly altogether to a heavy downpour.
of rain. The degree to which the
growing crop was damaged by the hail
is minimized when compared to the
extent to which it has been refresh.
ened and given a fresh start after the
set back its growth suffered at the
time of the frost early last Thursday
morning. Saturday afternoo n b e.
tween three and four the hail fell for
about twelve minutes here at Lang
don, there being enough of it on the
level to cover the ground to a depth
Of between two and three inches, but
neither the size of the hail stones nor
the accompanying wind were sufficient
10 do any great amount of damage.
Crops generally have picked up visib-
ly since Saturday afternoons storm
and the general impression prevails
that late sown barley at the present
time gives the greatest promise. The
early seasons drouth and the frost of
Thursday morning briggs wheat a
forecast of not better than half a crop,
according to those who have exper-
fence and are best able to judge.

Value Of Goats Milk.

For some reason goats milk has new
er been popular in America, although
in Europe, especially in France, Italy
and Switzerland. it is much esteemed,
particularly for babies. A goat can be
kept at a small expense, where it would
be impossible to keep a COW. Garden
waste and roadside browse will sup
port it. A small shed affords sufficient
shelter. A goat is far cleaner in its
habits than q COW and requires only
such care as Il child can give it. Let
us get goats.-Youth's Companion.

storms that the people of Langdon
