ALL HAVE DREADED GHOSTS
Spirits Play a Most Important Part in
the Lives of Primitive Peoples
of the World.

Ghosts are extremely ancient. The
people of old who dwelt in caves were
well acquainted with them.
In the lives of primitive peoples of
today a very important part is played
by ghosts. Their world is thickly
populated with them. When man
sleeps his phantasm, which cannot
sleep, goes a-traveling.
With this phantasm he is quite fa-
miliar, because it visibly attends him
in the daytime. 1t is his shadow. Saw
ages are usually more or less afraid
of shadows.
To the savage, not only animate but
even inanimate things have their
ghosts. Concealed within every object
is a mystery-a noumenon lurking be-
hind the phenomenon, as psycholo-
gist would express the idea. In any
rock there is fire hidden. One has
only to strike it with another piece OF
rock and sparks fly.
Among the most appalling spooks
that haunt the IrOquois is a carnivor-
Gus ghost that feeds on men. Echo,
in their belief, is a phantom that re-
peats their words mOckingly among
the hills. Particularly malevolent are
certain huge heads, without bodies,
that go flying about.

Where Americans Lead.

The American is fascinated by novel
problems, by ungauged and ungauge-
able difficulties. He glories in build
ing a Panama canal after Europe's
most famous engineer had failed. Be-
cause Europe had never ventured to
build skyscrapers THAT is no reason
why Woodwork should not rear a
structure more than 80 stories in the
air. For centuries man had dreamed
of flying. hut without success: yet
two obscure American lads, nothing
daunted. experimental until they con-
duered the air The original McCor-
mick was a farmer, not mechanic,
but that did not deter him from max
ing up his mind to produce a machine
which would cut grain, and he did not
give up until he had made both a
reaper and a fortune.
