This is the Heidelberg man, who liv- ed in the warm second intergiacial period, surrounded by a fauna of huge or fearsome beasts, which in- cluded the saber-too an dthe hip cluded the sabertooth and the hip elephants of southern type.
 He was chinless being whose jaw was still so primitive that it, must have made his speech imper- feet; and he was so much lower than any existing savage as to be at least specifically distinct-that is, he can be called human only if the word is used with certain largeness.
 Again we make a long skip-this time of somewhat over a hundred thousand years-and come to the Piltdown man, or near mana being seemingly a little farther advanced than the man of Heidelberg, and in some ways less so, for he possesses apelike canine teeth.
 The next race was that of the Neanderthal men, much more mod ern and more advanced, but lower than any existing savage; and spe- officially distinct from modern man. This race dwelt in Europe, without ether human rivals, for an immense period of time; probably at least fifty thousand years; certainly an age several times as long as the peri cd included in the interval between the earliest polished stone men and ourselves-in other words. several times as long as the ages of polished stone, bronze and iron and the total of historic times all put together. Some of their favorite caverns were lived in by them and by their successors for fifty thousand years.
 At last the life term of these primitive hunter folk drew to a close They were not our ancestors, With our present knowledge, it seems prob able that they were exterminated as | completely from Europe as in our own day the Tasmanians were ex- | terminated from Tasmania

HER DEEPLY SOLEMN THOUGHT

If there had been a little mental dic- taphone inside her head this is what it would have written down during her progress down Michigan ovenue from Randolph to Van Buren. She was all of IS, and righ in style from the tip of her foolish little wad of hat to tiny points of her frivolous, high heeled shoes:
 Well thank goodness. I managed to drop Sallie before I turned the corner! If l should meet any one nice that l knew she certainly would have been bother I hope something doesn't happen today-something exciting and thrilling It's the funniest thing with town so filled with men that girl never meet any but the simps and dubs,
 Wouldn't it be gorgeous if I'd meet a men who was simply stunning to look at and had heaps of money and cars and was crazy about me and that's Percy Jones coming, and if he sees me I'll die! Shrimp! 1 cat turn my head any father the other way well, that's over! He never even look ed this way.
 T think I'd like him to be dark, al though that cousin Jane's was certain ly good to look at with his tan hair and tan complexion and those aw- fully blue eyes. What a pity he got engaged before coming here! I'm glad I don't firt, because 1 might have made that girl terribly wretched the way he looked at me once or twice.
 "If-what a peach of a dress! I've simply got to get it fixed in my mind before the dressmaker comes next week. Um-let's see! Two peplums tucked criss- cross and that funny dingus around the neck. I'm glad I've got pretty throat and can wear these extreme styles. I wish to goodness dad 1 would make a million dollars or some thing so I could buy things when see them.

it is believed that such a plan would serve to not only regulate the new corners but to take care of the labor situation regarding which the claim is already being made that the country faces a deficit of four million.
 This idea will doubtless get consid- eration along with the others. It is entitled to be studied for what it is worth but it cannot fail to be realized that any such plan which would ap- parently open the country to those who are now forbidden will be due for strong opposition. That has doubtless been taken into consideration in pre- senting the plan with the hope possi- bly, held that it can be overcome, but it will have to receive a much differ ent reception than any such idea has in the past.

The Original Ape Man.

Newspaper reports that Prof. R. l.. Garner, of the Smithsonian lnstitu- ton of Washington, D. C., has found in the French Congo a man mon key" or talking ape" lend interest to a communication seEt by the late Theodore Roosevelt to the National Geographic society telling of the pre- human ape man of Java, who lived some 500,000 years ago, and marked an upward stage in the evo- lution of man.
 Col Roosevelts famous jungle hunt was in the vicinity of Prof. Gamers s newspaper despatches, and the Roos- evelt big game is mounted in the Smithsonian Institution with which Prof. Garner is associated.
 Regarding this "ape-man" of Ja- va. one of many missing links in human evolution Col. Roosevelt wrote to the National Geographic Society.
 This being was already half way upward from the beast, half way be- tween true man and those Miocene ancestors of his, who were still on the psychic and intellectual level of their diverging kinsfolk, the anthro- poid apes. He, or some creature like him. was in our own line of ascent during these uncounted ages when our ancestors were already different from all other brutes and yet had not grown to be really man. He probably used a stone or club al need; and about this time he may have begun very rudely to chip oi otherwise fashion stones to his use. His progress was very, very slow; the marked feature in the progress of man has been it's great acceleratior of rapidity in each successive stage accompanied continually by an in- applicable halt or dying out in ract after race and culture after. culture. After the ape man of Java we skip a quarter of a million years oi so, before we get our next glimpse of a near-human predecessor of ours

DEALING WITH ANARCHISTS.

When such series of attacks is made upon the institutions of this country as that carried out by the bomb throwers. it is quite natural that there should be an increased interest manifested in dealing with such a class of people, as is being shown by the introduction of several anti-an- archy bills before congress. This gives the impression that we do not possess at the present time laws that properly deal with such criminals. Such being the case it ought not to be necessary to wait for more attacks before making a move in this direc- ton. We have experienced the lack of preparedness in the matter of laws a considerable number of times already and it is well to take time by the fore lock, but what the result will be no one can tell.
 One of the bills provides the penalty of death for those who are convicted of attempting to use internal ma chimes for bringing about death or causing the destruction of property. It is appreciated that there are many times when a bomb fails to accomplish what the thrower intends Sometimes it accomplishes mo-e. but there can be no question what the purpose is The intent is clear and whether there is large or small loss of fife, whether much damage is caused, whether the bomb proves l dud or is prevented from exploding, there should be a sufficiently drastic Jaw with which to deal with sucn people. It is time to let them know that this country is not a havel for sucl, criminals, that the land of freedom is not open to the interpre aiio1 that they give it and that they must abide by the laws or take the consequences They have been encouraged by the leniency they have received in the past.
