New York, Feb. 21.-Seven years

Now that we have given away her

The girl was Maureen circuit, the

Yet. strangely last year in the nation

Maureen could get started.

The jinx reasserted itself the other
day in Florida when Maureen defeated
Billie in the Miami Biltmore cham
pionship, winning thereby the run
ner-up title to National Champion
Virginia Van Vie.
It won't be long now until Miss
circuit brings her game back north,
stopping on the way to Pinehurst to
win the North-South again. For the
last three years in row she has

Races Dying Out

Primitive races of mankind in far
removed areas of the globe are tend
ing to die out, according to anthro-
biologists who reported a recent
meeting of the British association.
Among the diminishing peoples are
the pure-blood Esklmos of Labrador,
who for $50 years have been under a
conscientious and peaceful admins
tration, the Alaskan Eskimos, and
the Australian aborigines.
Their reduction in numbers Is at
trlbuted to five causes: Internecine
warfare, sudden changes Of milieu,
extinction by imported diseases. ex-
tinction by removal of the natural
resources necessary for life, and ex-
tinction by mixing.

DOGS FIRST IN
NORTH AMERICA
Animal Is Native of
This Continent.
From the Literary Digest.

FROM tnt 1ANtAdAJ OlkEBLs
The dog has frequently been
called mans best friend. At least
since the Azilian phase Of the Old
Stone age he has been devoted to
humanity. This famous partnership
was probably cemented in Europe,
but the partners came from widely
divergent regions of the earth. Man
possibly originated in Africa. The
dog is a native American.
The oldest fossil members Of the
dog family r found in the Lower
Oligocene of western North Ameri-
ca; they lived here about thirty
eight million years ago. In that time,
says Prof. william X. Gregory, in
the Bulletin of the New York Zoo
LOGICAL society, the dog family was
already represented by two genera,
Cynodictis, the common ancestor Of
all the modern dogs, wolves, foxes,
dholes, ETC., as well as of the rae
coon family. and Daphoenus, ances-
tor Of the giant dogs and the bears.
Cynodictis was not yet either a
dog, a wolf OF a fox. 1t had some
what of the long-bodied, Sinking
habit of the civet. Its feet were less
compressed than In later dogs, the
claws were slightly retractile. It's
predecessors, fossils of which are
found In Wyoming, were still less
dog-like. They were tree-living ami
mails, somewhat like r%accoons, with
spreading hands and feet. The fast
running dogs of later times were
evolved as the plains replaced the
forests In both western North Amer
lea and Europe.
Daphoenus had a more massive
skull than Cynodictis, with upper
molars of the crushing type. Bears,
In fact, are only gigantic short-tailed
dogs that have learned to walk on
the whole soles of their feet and In
which the crushing molars have be-
come greatly Increased In size, says
Professor Gregory. In the rocks

laid down In late Tertiary time. be-
fore the onset of the great Ice age,
are found fossil skeletons Of a crea-
ture, Hyaenarctos. regarded by many
authorities as the connecting link
between dogs and bears.
From North America, dogs spread
rapidly all over the world, probably
reaching Asia over a land bridge at
Behring strait and thence to Europe
and Africa, and South America over
the present land connection when it
was established about twenty million
years ago. At that time there were
already many species-swift-running
forms with narrow, compressed feet.
These ancestral dogs in successive
ages gave rise to the numerous types
of modern wolves, dogs, foxes, and
fox-like animals.
Among the most curious of mod
ern dogs are those of South America,
which resemble true dogs on one
hand, and foxes on the other. Their
lines of descent have been hard to
trace, says Doctor Gregory, but 1t is
now evident that they are really
"living fossils"-surviving relics OF
the old dogs of the Miocene and
Pliocene ages of western North
America which crossed the land
bridge to the southern continent.
Probably the strangest of these
South American dogs Is the bush
dog, distinguished by his short muz-
zle and the loss of his second upper
and lower molars, his short legs and
other features which give him a most
undogliKe annearance-

Blanktown, March %, 1884.

My dear Editor Doakes:
have just finished reading what
you wrote in your paper about "a
certain motion picture actress" and
feel called upon to take my pen In
hand.
My Timothy and | have been mar.
ried for twenty years and we're
both f%orty-one now. Well, q WON.
an, you know, hasn't all of her girl.
lsh charms at that age, and a man
just about then seems to get some
kind of funny romantic notions like
he had at twenty. At least, that's
how 1t was with Tim and me. !
guess he began to look at me a lit
tie critically, or something, and saw
that l wasn't quite the slender dam
sci he longed for.
Anyhow, pretty soon | heard ru-
mors that he was running around
with some red-headed woman who
wore a size IA and looked the same
from all angles. | never saw her,
but that was the description I got
from the people who are always
glad to let you know about such
things.
| didn't do anything because |
didn't know anything to do. He
kept right on, going out oftener
and staying away longer all the
time. Finally | began to think 1t
would have to end In a divorce or
separation, which would also have
been the end of life for me.
Then n night he said, Let's
go to a movie" We always did that
when he wasn't stepping out. He
didn't seem to like being alone with
me for an evening any more. So
we went down to the Superba with
out bothering to find out first what
was there. Well, 1t turned out to
be a picture with this actress You
wrote about. I'd never ever heard
of her before. and / don't think
Tim had.
When 1t was over he said, Lets
stay for the second show" We did,
and then half the night Tim kept
me awake raving about her. That,
he said, was the way a woman
should look and be.
Next day / thought a lot about
1t and suddenly got an idea. I
hunted around, found my old corset,
and put 1t on under the slinkiest
dress / had. The effect was pretty
good, and even better after I'd cut
four inches off the gowns neck In
front. The curves were really sur
prising, but / won't go into details
that wouldn't interest you.
When Tim came In that night, !
was standing by the fireplace In the
corset and the dress and about a
dolalr's worth of dime store jewel
ry and with my hair piled up curly
like. He just stopped dead and
stared for about half a minute.
Then he almost jumped across the
room and said, Good cash, honey,
you sure look like a millioni Don't
think / was slow seeing 1t, but you
ioored me so / couldn't think what
to say"
"0h, that's all right" / told him,
trying to wiggle around a little, Il
like a guy what takes his time"
Well, that's about all. Tins
stopped going out, and he wants to
take a second honeymoon this sum-
mer. I guess I've written an awful
lot about things that don't concern
you, but / wanted you to know that
the lady you called a wrecker of
homes actually saved me-.
Yours very truly,

THERE has lately been a disgust.
L Ing amount of TODD throughout
the land over the personality and
exploits of a certain motion pie
ture actress. To those concerned
chiefly, as we should be with the
higher and finer things of life, this
woman's undulatIng hips, indecent
exposure, and vulgar expressions
can only be revolving.
Her popularity and her possible
influence upon feminine manners,
moreover, constitute a menace to
home life In this country. Ameri-
can women during the past few
years have learned to maintain a
slender and modest appearance. If
this trend is reversed, we gravely
fear the effect upon standards of
decency and right living.
