The Future of Man.
Some Scientific Prophecies as to the New Conditions
That Will Govern Our Brains, Our Bodies and our
Environments.
Here are some of the most remarkable
prophecies ever ventured by men of
science. To learned savants in our various
scientific institutions I have lately ad-
dressed this question: “Looking as far
into the future as your mind’s eye can
see, what changes are likely to occur to
our brains, bodies and environments?”’
“Man of the distant future,” says Pro-
fessor Otis Mason, “will occupy a belt
near the equator. The earth is cooling,
and as a result the Eskimo must leave
the polar regions. Later, the Yankee
must quit New England. All savage peo-
ples will be eliminated from the earth.
The entire human race will ‘be brunette.
The blond people were once brunettes
and became as they are through some
process of interbreeding. The convolu-
tions of the brain will be larger and will
admit a much greater blood flow to carry
on the commerce of the mind. Man will
be stronger physically. His hands and
feet will be much smaller. Labor saving
machinery will reduce physical labor, but
an increase of athletics will make the
race stronger. Disappearance of small
printing type will leave the eyes much
stronger. The ear can never take the
place of the eye until some other heav-
only body can be substituted for the sun.
The hat will vanish and the hair will im-
prove.
“The home of this age will be a great
communal dwelling, where all people of
the same kinship will live under the
same roof—children, parents, grandpar-
ents, uncles, aunts and cousins. Rapid
transit will eliminate skyscrapers, and in-
creased artificialization of life will ren-
der co-operation more necessary. Sepa-
rate establishments, such as the corner
grocery, will be considered absurdities of
bygone days, as will also the keeping of
servants. Chemically pure drinking wa-
ter will free the cells of the body from
mineral matter and permit man to live
to the age of Methuselah. Compressed
foods will never come into use. If they
should, the stomach would atrophy. The
death of an infant will be an exception,
whereas today one-half of the human
race never mature. The deadly microbe
will suffer the fate of such dangerous an-
imal pests as have already been made ex-
tinct. People who spread disease will
be considered as enemies to mankind,
punishable by severe penalties. Dress
will be more perfectly adapted to com-
fort, health, longevity and beauty.”
Dr. Theodore N. Gill, the eminent bi-
ologist of the Smithsonian, said that the
wisdom teeth would disappear, as would
possibly the vermiform appendix and the
little toe. ‘Man himself,” said he, “is
a striking evidence of the fact that he
was not specially created. He is not
only like the ape, but-bears the impress
of many inferior stocks. The appendix.
for instance, was inherited from ances-
tors to whom it was important and came
to us through the apes from primitive
forms, somewhat like marsupials. It
may disappear to a slight extent. The
gray matter of the brain may increase
somewhat in bulk, but cerebration is not
dependent upon size of brain. Some of
the most intellectual have small brains.
It is possible that the little toe will dis-
appear, but doubtful. It has its use in
giving greater basis to the foot. I doubt
whether there will be an increase in stat-
ure, especially since in the future intel-
lectuality will become more and more
predominant over brute force. Hygienic
and sanitary progress will have an appre-
ciable effect upon the average length of
human life, but longevity dependent upon
improved physical conditions cannot be
anticipated. I doubt if the hair will de-
crease. The more civilized have a thick-
er growth upon their faces than lower
orders of men. Undoubtedly there will
be many changes which cannot be fore-
told.”
“In the first place, every man will be
white,” said Professor W. J. McGee, the
noted ethnologist, in reply to the ques-
tion. ‘His average height and weight
will be decidedly greater. His head will
be larger, absolutely and relatively. His
hands and brain will be better co-ordi-
nated, and therefore he will be a better
mechanician. His vision will be stron-
ger, his sense of smell more acute and
his hearing and sense of taste more deli-
cate. On the whole, the man of the fu-
ture will be stronger in relation to stat-
ure and weight. He will live under a
universal, republican government, but it
is doubtful whether any one administra-
tive head will be required. Disputes be-
tween individuals, corporations or states
will be settled by courts of various mag-
nitude. There will be a universal lan-
guage — a composite of all present
tongues. but, like the English, a lan-
guage of vocables and syntax. Written
and spoken language will be more sim-
ilar.
“Fish will be relatively more impor-
tant as food. Oceans and lakes will be the
main sources of food supply. Land will be
almost entirely occupied for dwelling and
for horticulture and intensive agricul-
ture. Need of clothing will diminish.
Control of temperature will be met by
other than our present retail methods.
There will be no serious exposure to cold.
In winter men will travel in well heated
vehicles, carrying them from one warm
building to another. Ozone will be sold
.at drug stores and will be applied to kill
bacilli as soon as they appear. The
earth will be an endless succession of
Cities will meanwhile grow less
and less dense. The street block or row
will be no more. The home will be more
individual, each family occupying a sep-
arate house to suit its peculiar taste.
Transportation will be chiefly electric and
will be much more rapid as a result of
straightening and multiplication of
tracks. Aerial navigation will be valu-
able only for sports and amusement. It
will not be a factor in warfare, because
there will be no warfare. Submarine
navigation will be valuable only as a
means of escape from storms. Vessels
will be equipped with means of diving
and remaining below the surface until
storms blow over. Perfection of telegra-
phy will decrease mail business. All
children will receive the foundations of
their education in public schools. Uni-
versities and private institutions of learn-
ing will give only special training. Chil-
dren will have to study less, will learn
spontaneously and will be encouraged to
do what their minds naturally lead them
to prefer. Sex of children will be prede-
terminable.””—Providence Journal.

HOROSCOPES.
Before the sibyl with her haunted eyes
Two sisters sat with delicate arms enlaced;
Watched as she dealt the cards and, without
haste,
Spelt out the rune of their two destinies.
Brown haired and gold haired, fresher than the
dawn,
Poppy and white anemone were they;
A flower of autumn and a flower of May,
They watched to see their fates from darkness
drawn.
“Life will be sad for you and yours, heigho!”’
The sibyl told the autumn colored maid.
“But will my lover love me?’ ‘‘Aye,” she said.
“Why, then, I shall be all too happy so.”
‘With earthly love you never shall be fed,”
The siby} told the lady white as snow.
“But shall I love at all?’ ‘‘Aye, even so.”
“Then happy I shall live and die,” she said.

Platonic Flirtation.
Since the emancipation of women, es-
pecially in the United States, the rela-
tions of the sexes have gained new in-
tellectual aspects. The better educated
youth of both sexes now use the word
“friendship” to cover investigations in
love. It allows ampler experiments,
What was once compromising is now buf
introductory. In some lands, to invite a
girl to a solitary walk is equivalent to a
proposal. With us, a hundred strolls,
full of discussion, may end in a negative
conclusion that will be without Dbitter-
ness. In other days marriage was an
estate that had to be purchased on a dis-
tant view. Now many of its pleasantest
groves and avenues may be visited at
leisure. ‘He who sees a woman’s heart
may take it,” said one of the older school.
Not only that, he was morally bound to
take it. Today she may read specimen
pages to a score of men before she
chooses the final listener.
The advantages of the new system are
mainly for the intelligent. Many girls
will fail to comprehend the higher flirta-
tion and proceed in the same old way,
and men will ignorantly marry the
piquant face and vivacious manner. But
to the marriage of true minds impedi-
ments have been removed. The freedom
of our education develops platonic flirta-
tion to its noblest uses. If American
men make the best husbands, the reason
is related to the training they have in
meeting, on terms of equality, with many
women. It is stupid in men or women
to lack the instinet for flirtation, but this
instinct, like so many others. can be
turned to the deepest or the emptiest
uses. To make yourself attractive, com-
prehending and sympathetic is the way to
draw out another nature and obtain full
knowledge, and to condemn all coquetry
is like recommending swimming and for-
bidding water. Sentimental people fear
intimacies which do not end seriously,
but the increase of knowledge and se-
curity is worth some hearts broken be-
fore marriage instead of after. Few ob-
jects are more readily mended, and few
improve so much through injury and re-
pair.
Platonic flirtation is one of the safe-
guards of the human race. As one after
another my friends have passed through
this gate to the altar I have been tempt-
ed to declare that most platonic friend-
ships end in matrimony, but a calmer
memory recalls numberless escapes,
through this probation, from impending
wedlock.—Norman Hapgood in Atlantic
Monthly.
Thackeray Hawking “Vanity Fair."
What a history might be written upon
“Books Refused by Publishers!” Those
necessary but much abused members of
the book trade have made mistakes from
the time when “Robinson Crusoe” went
the round of publishers, only to be re-
turned with thanks, to that of Mme.
Grand’s ‘The Heavenly Twins,” which,
after several journeys, at last found a
publisher and success.
It has often been stated that Thack-
eray’s ‘‘Vanity Fait” was refused by
several publishers before it was accepted
by Bradbury & Evans, but that point
has been satisfactorily settled by the
publication of Mr. Lewis Melville's “Life
of Thackeray.” The statement is made
in this work, upon the authority of Mr.
Vizetelly, that one afternoon Thackeray
called at his office with a small brown
paper parcel containing two drawings for
the first number of “Vanity Fair.” With
them was the manuscript for the early
part of this book.
Thackeray said he was going to Brad-
bury & Evans to offer them the work.
Mr. Vizetelly continued, “In little more
than half an hour Thackeray again
made his appearance and. with a beam-
ing face, gleefully informed me that they
had settled the business. Thackeray ex-
plained that he had named 50 guineas
per part, including the illustrations, but
he thought he could have got much
more."
Such were the arrangements which ob-
tained for us one of our greatest works
in fiction.—Sketch.
The Effort of His Life a Failure.
W. 8. Gilbert had a novel experience
before he wrote for the stage, when he
was a barrister waiting for his first brief.
It was long in coming. and when it did
come Mr. Gilbert determined, of course,
to make the effort of his life.
He was intrusted with the prosecution
of an old Irish woman for stealing a
coat, and when he began the speech that
he had prepared and rehearsed so care-
fully the old dame at once began to inter-
ject: “Oh, ye divil, sit down!” ‘Sure.
now, he’s a loier, yer honor!” ‘Sit down,
ye spalpeen!”
perlice. yer honor!” After some minutes
of this abuse Gilbert asked the record-
er's intervention, but that official was too
busy laughing. So the effort of his life
was not a success.
The Westminster Tobacco Box.
The Westminster tobacco box has an
interesting history. In 1713 a horn to-
bacco box. worth about fourpence, was
presented to the Past Overseers’ society.
Every: year for close upon two centuries
silver inscription plates have been added
to the box, which has grown from a size
of 3 by 5 inches to a width of 2 feet
and a height of 30 inches. In weight it
has increased from a few ounces to over
100 pounds. Each year the outgoing
overseer hands to his successor the box.
the burgesses’ loving cup and other treas-
ures of the ancient city of Westminster.

Passion Flower Fruit,
Few people probably are aware that
there is a variety of the passion flower
which bears a luscious fruit about the
size and color of a purple plum. The bo-
tanical name of the variety is Passiflora
edulis, and as it does well in Wales and
Scotland it ghould do so elsewhere.

An Awful Nuisance.
A Habit Which Brings the Impecunious Individual
Who Cultivates It Dangerously Near the Dishon-
est Line—Don’t Be a Beat.
It is old Polonius, in Shakespeare’s
tragedy of “Hamlet, who says:
Neither a borrower nor a lender be,
For loan oft loses both itself and friend,
And borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry.
This advice he gives to his son, young
Laertes, on his departure for France.
And it contains a world of wisdom in a
little space.
The chronic borrower exists in every
community, and he is a nuisance. How
well we all know him ‘under various
forms! There is the man who invites
you out to drink and then asks you for a
$5 note, to be repaid the next Monday.
That day never comes, ang the lender is
obliged to charge the sum to profit and
loss.
Then there is the fellow who comes and
borrows a small sum, which he repays
very promptly, and you think you have
seen the last of him. But you are mis-
taken. He reappears and asks for the
loan of a larger amount, and if you are
verdant enough to comply with his re-
quest you will never see your money
again. Following these comes the chap
who is a mere beggar. He wants a half
dollar until tomorrow. But he never
intends to return it, and you never ex-
pect him to do this. You give him the
coin to get rid of him for the time being,
and he shuffles off to spend it at the
nearest taproom.
Now, all these impecunious men were,
no doubt, likely lads growing up until
they fell into the habit of borrowing.
They were probably honest enough in
paying their debts at the start, but then
came a time when, owing to some ex-
travagant expenditure which they could
not afford, they found themselves unable
to meet their just debts.
They brazened it out then, and they
have continued to brazen it out ever
since. They have lost all sense of honor
and all self respect and have joined the
ranks of the Jeremy Diddlers, from
which there is little hope of escape.
They have no character or standing in
the community in which they live, and
they that know them best will dodge
around the corner when they see them
coming.
There is, of course, in trade a legiti-
mate system of borrowing on good se-
curity. Business could not be conducted
long under ordinary conditions unless
some such practice prevailed, but this
does not furnish any excuse for the
shortcomings of those who obtain loans
without any idea of how they are to be
repaid.
“Borrowing dulls the edge of husband-
ry,” as the old courtier in the play truly
says. A borrower is necessarily a spend-
thrift. He never has a bank account
because he never saves anything. He
has nothing to draw upon but the sav-
ings of his acquaintances, on which he
has no claim. He may not call himself
a dishonest man, but he is not far from
it. For instance, he strikes a good na-
tured slob who does not know him very
well and by fictitious statements squeezes
a dollar or two out of a poor innocent
who can ill afford to lose it and who, per-
haps, needs it for the proper support of
his household or for the payment of his
weekly bills. That money is never re-
turned, as the borrower well knew it
would not be when he promised to make
it good in a short time. The law may
not be able to reach him, but some peo-
ple would call him a thief. And the
chronic borrower is far from happy.
He has his moments of elation, no
doubt, like Wilkins Micawber when the
punch was brewed, but he has terrible
hours of depression when he does not
know where the next meal is coming
from and when he has exhausted the pa-
tience of all his relatives and acquaint-
ances. But he need not be in this pickle
if he would resolve to live within his
means and not indulge in luxuries which
he well knows he cannot afford.
If a man’s expenditures do not come
within his income, there is bound to be
disaster in the end. He will be bank-
rupt in both fortune and character if he
does not wisely regulate his expenses
so they may not exceed his salary or the
receipts of any business in which he may
be engaged.
It is a wise rule for a young man never
to buy anything for which he has not the
ready money to pay. There is too much
temptation in getting things on credit. It
leads a man to obtain more than he real-
ly needs and thus run up large bills
which he finds it difficult to meet.
Young fellows are too apt to jest about
standing up the tailor or some other
tradesman, as if it were a smart thing to
keep an honest, hardworking man out of
his money. Why is it not a better way
to save up your earnings until you have
the cash to settle a bill at once? In this
way you will obtain the respect of your
neighbors and gain a reputation that will
be of inestimable value to you in any
reputable pursuit you may follow. It is
just as easy to be a white sheep as a
black one and a deal more pleasant in
the end.
If you live to be old, you do not want
to look back over a wasted life and re-
gret that you did not avoid these extrav-
agances, which, after all, have brought
you little or no enjoyment. Do without
things rather than borrow.
If you do not practice self denial in
youth, you will never attain any position
or distinction worth having. Perhaps
you do not know what a deadbeat is.
Well, he’s a liar and a cheat, and that is
what the chronic borrower always is.
Don’t be a beat.—Boston Herald.
Why the Cook Gave Notice.
“I see you printed something the other
day about the disadvantages of myopia—
nearsightedness, you know.” said the
man with glasses yesterday. ‘Now, I'm
afflicted that way myself. A few nights
ago when I went home it was raining
hard. My umbrella was wet, and I car-
ried it immediately to. the kitchen to
drain. Casting about for something to
stand it in, my eye caught some sort of
receptacle on the floor near the stove,
which I took to be the coal hod, so I stood
the umbrella in it and went to bed. The
next morning the cook gave notice. She
had found my umbrella standing in her
shoe.”—Syracuse Post Standard.
Much Better.
Mrs. Snooper—1 wonder if it is true, as
Dr. Jacobi says, that the baby of today
has a better chance of living than the ba-
by of 50 years ago?
Snooper—Certainly it is. The baby of
50 years ago is half a century old now.

City Rats.
Some of the big up town stores are
greatly bothered by rats. This is not pe-
culiar to stores where food supplies are
stored, but applies even to places where
fabrics and clothes are carried. Some of
the older buildings along Washington
street are infested to such an extent that
much damage results. The rodents ap-
pear to find access to basements through
drains. At least it is supposed they do,
though it seems scarcely possible where
plumbing is pretty carefully icoked after.
Places where furs are carried have to
be very carefully watched, for it has hap-
pened that a few energetic rats with good
teeth have gnawed their way through a |
great many dollars’ worth of merchandise
in a single night.
In some places they are so numerous
that a cat is overawed and simply will
not attempt to attack them. In one store
basement a few nights ago a wire com-
partment trap, familiarly called a French
trap, corralled 16 big rats, which made
lots of fun next morning for a terrier that
lives in Avery street. This trap is sup-
posed to be invincible, and, in fact, it is
seldom a rat beats it, but recently a
young dog that found several rats in one
of them, when there happened to be no
one about to look after him, turned the
trap over in his anxiety to get at the prey.
This dropped the shutter, which is the
secret of the trap, and allowed all the
rats to pass out. Since that not a rat has
been caught in that trap, although it has
been repeatedly relieved of its bait. The
dog had given the rats the tip, and they
have ever since succeeded in holding the
shutter down while they hauled the bait
over it, thereby escaping imprisonment
themselves. Some legs of roasted chick-
en were strapped with wire to the inside
of the inner cage, and yet the rats got all
but the bare bones and didn’t get caught
at all. To any one who knows the effi-
ciency of the French trap this story may
seem almost incredible, but it is neverthe-
less true.
It has been found in several stores that
the trap is most attractive to the rats
when it is baited with lobster. For a night
or two it is well baited and left open at
both ends, so that the rats may pass
through it freely. Then one end is closed
and locked. That night the number of
rats captured will be limited only by the
capacity of the wire cell.—Boston Herald.
The Chinese New Year.
“The New Year’s festival of the Chi-
nese, said to be the most complete holi-
day season kept by any nation of the
earth, is celebrated wherever a single
Chinaman is found, whether in Peking
or New York,” writes Belle M. Brain in
Woman’s Home Companion. “It is a
movable festival, falling on any date
between Jan. 21 and Feb. 19. Prepara-
tions for the great holiday begin weeks
beforehand. The accumulated dirt of
many months disappears as if by magic.
Even the Chinaman himself passes
through the cleaning process, washing
his clothes and bathing his person, the
latter being a great event in the lives of
a few, since it occurs but once a year!
“Buildings of every description are
elaborately decorated. Flowers are in
great demand, the favorite being the
Chinese narcissus. The prospect of hap-
piness for the year is believed to be in
proportion to the number of flower stalks
produced from a single bulb.
“During the closing days of the old
year Chinese streets present a busy and
animated scene. Shops are thronged
with customers eagerly laying in large
quantities of food, clothing and New
Year's gifts. Debtors and creditors are
seen hurrying to and fro endeavoring to
settle their accounts, for, according to a
most commendable custom, all debts must
be paid or settled in some satisfactory
manner before the New Year dawns. To
meet these liabilities shopkeepers offer
their goods at unheard of prices, and
families frequently part with odd bits of
bric-a-brac, curious relics and valuable
ornaments for a sum pitifully small. No
disgrace is equal to being found on New
Year’s morning with an unpaid debt. On
the other hand, the creditor who fails to
collect his debts at this time may not
press them again for many months. He
therefore pursues his debtor far into the
night, continuing his search into the New
Year’s day if necessary. This he may do
if he carries a lighted lantern to indicate
that he is still engaged in last night’s
business and has not discovered that the
day has dawned!”
How Strauss Played the Chant,
The teacher who influenced Strauss
most was one Joseph Dreshler. the choir-
master of St. Stephen’s church, in Vien-
na, who tried to get the walizes out of
the boy’s head and put in their place an-
thems and chorals. In this undertaking
he met with indifferent success. for the
worshipers in one of the Vienna churches
were startled on a Sunday morning when
there poured forth from the organ. filling
the gloomy building by its enchanting
notes, a waltz instead of the solemn
Gregorian chant to which they were ac-
customed. It was Johann Strauss, Jr,
who had taken the organist’s place and
substituted his own favorite selection for
the usual sacred music, much to the dis-
may of the pious folk and the «-.ause-
ment of the younger people in the con-
gregation.—Edward A. Steiner in Wo-
man’s Home Companion.
