In the Stone Age.

IT is known that many Of the mines
now worked were worked by the
Romans and that the Roman miners
did nothing but continue work begun
by the Gauls, who were habituated TO
the use of metals.
The first mining was done I'm the
Stone Age. The mines of cobaltiferous
copper in Spain date from a prehis.
toric time. These mines are distin.
guished by singular arrangement OF
the ways of access. Instead of hori-
zontal galleries along the sides of the
mine there are vertical chimneys. like
wells. yards deep. ending in metal
strata. The arrangement Of these prim-
tive shafts may have been planned to
make it easy for the overseers of the
mines to watch the slaves as they
worked and also to prevent the en-
trance OF wild beasts. That the mines
were worked in prehistoric times was
demonstrated by the discovery of IL
skeletons of men, who, presumably,
were killed by caVe-in. Some of
them lay under rocks. In their hands
were very heavy tools. hatchets made
of stone, and picks carved from the
bones of animals. The skeletons were
of great height and of powerful struC-
ture; the thumbs of the enormous
hands We're twice the length of the
thumb of the modern workman. But
though so tall. the inen were of eX-
cessively narrow build. as was shown
by the width of the places i'm which
they worked The veins of clay were
removed by hand. as is shown by in-
Vulnerable finger marks.

wants to speak to the other again.
Often their anger has cooled to the
extent that John Tor Bid Oughtn't
to go to jail. but l never want TO
see him again"
Many times through the probation
office these troubles are smoothed out,
and sometimes the couples leave the
courthouse locked I'm each others
arms. The teaching of patience and
less selfishness is admin tered. Some
times nothing can be done, but many
a home has been saved by proper
handling of the situation.
The arduous work is sometimes al
leviated by amusing experiences that
turn I'D. Miss Foster recently was
visiting a home where the husband
was on probation for beating his wife.
This day Miss Foster made an inVes-
tigation to see if conditions were I'M
proving. She found the home in 4
state of suualor the children untidt
and the rooms covered with dust and
everything most uninvitlng.
The mother was there. her face and
arms showing the bruises of recent
brutality. Why don't you clean the
place up and make things look nice
for Your husband" Miss Foster in
quired. Maybe he won't go out and
drink and beat YOU when he returns.
Not seeming to realize the helpful
hints and unmndful of her scars, the
woman answered: 'Oh Miss Foster.
YOU ain't married. is you?" After re-
.ceiying a negative reply, the woman,
it, a most pathetic voice, said: "Oh,
isn't it a pity" Just how sorry Miss
Foster felt at that time is not revealed.
An amusing incident occurred when
Miss Foster was with the Associated
Charities. A coiored woman asked for
assistance. and after Miss Foster in
vestigated. she found that the woman
was in good health. could work and
had two sons. both able.bodied and
strong. Assistance was refused. Sew
eral years later, when Miss Foster was
connected with the Board Of Children's
Guardians. the same woman came into
her office wanting the guardianship OF
her sons children. She was surprised
to see Miss Foster there. and her re-
quest was refused when it was found
that there was no reason why the sons
should not care for their own children.
4 year ago. when Miss Foster was
in the probation Office. the same wom-
an came to Police Court for the pur-
pose of having her husband, who had
