' The remains of the Dryopltheous or fossil man discovered on the l:cngawan river, In Java, mixed aa they were with foRsIl bonea of rep- .. p. nrp Bl)! jyina; t:.e r.n.oc-ous s-'rata, clearly prove that man was contemporary with the Inter of the giant Saurlana. Moreover, the discovery of the Nam " l-ir.ee. n piece of handiwork found In the cretaceous strata la Ada county. Ii'aho, would Imply that he hod attained some slight degree of art. Assuming then that man was living In the Calnozolc age, the question Is. how did he survive his acquaintanceship with the gigantic Panrlans, anyone of which could plow hla way through a suburban street today or trample a herd of elephants to death? How did he 03cape the shining horns of the Trlc ertops and Ceratosaurus or Pleslos- "avrus? The answer to these ques tions Is that even then man possess ed Intelligence far In excess of that of the other animals. He could sup-u-ly his lack of natural weapons by means of sharpened rocks and flints and could, by reason of his greater courage, take refuge on the aides of volcanoes and other dangerous places where his gigantic foes dare no follow him. At any rate he not only survived the huge creaturea of the later reptilian era, but passed Into the Tertiary era or Mammalian s'nge as the firBt and greatest of tha Mammals. Ireland To Have Forests. Ireland has awaka-ed to the value of her forests. A' Commission ap pointed by the Crown has just made public Ita report. The commission urges the adop tion of a scheme for the state to plant about 700.000 acres. This, with the 300.000 acres existing, c.O'.ild plve Ireland 1,000,000 acres of fnrent land, an area which the commission considers as essential. ALoit 20,000 acres would be pur chased by the state In mountainous rrt tons and managed as state forest, while 500,000 acres would be plant ed by the state, but managed by pri vate owners or by county councils. Denmark, an agricultural country hflf the size of Ireland, haa since 1S81 Increased her forests by 175, 000 acres. Belgium, In spite of her dense population, has added 70,000 acres to her forests In the last twenty-five years. Ireland Is particularly suited In soli and climate for the growth of forests, but only 1 Vg per cent, of her total area Is forested. The Gulf Stream. This great "River of the Sea" flows from the Gulf of Mexico (hence Jts name) through the Flor ida Strait along the eastern coast of the United States, and la then de flected near the banks of Newfound land diagonally across the Atlantic, It la estimated to be 150 miles wide off Charleston, and 300 miles wide off Sandy Hook, where It spreads, fanlike, over the surrace of the North Atlantic. Off Cape Hatteras Its velocity Is reckoned at about 3 miles an hour, off the banks of New foundland 1 Vi miles an bour, then the rate slowly merges into that of the northeasterly drift of the Atlan tic 4 or 5 milea a day. Its tem perature Is from 4 5 to 81 degrees, according to depth and latitude. Grant's Peaceful End. The peace that he had so often wished for others came to him at lest In the truer and more enduring sense. It was the calm death he had hoped for, a gentle and gradual 'filling to sleep. The weary, anx ious night had passed, the rays of the morning sun stole quietly into the death-chamber; but at last there was another morning for him, an other light, glorious, Infinite, Im mortal.

J. C. CARLTON, Mercantile Appraiser. Dated Milford, Pa., May 1, The Cui-e of the Sewing Machine. S'-wing machines, like persons, nccl to be given personal attention c.oiy now and then. When a ua chine scents to "work hard" take the tj'e-Jle and shuttle out. and give Kry joint and bearing a generous l.hth of gasolene. Do this dur'ng the daytime lu order not to have a lac.p or hre anywhere near at the time of the using of this very tu Carnmable fluid. Turn the wheels bri.kly to enable the gasolene to penetrate every part of the machin ery and to loosen the old oil and the grime. Then wipe all parta perfect ly clean and apply pure "sewing ma chine oil," running the machine for several minutes before reinserting the needle and Bbuttle. Be careful to wipe away all superfluous oil anc you will find your machine In per fect temper and ready for any work you may bring to It. It will be au absolute pleasure to use It for some time thereafter, and the process ''ill also save tha dollar which tha "r -w-lng machine nan" would certainly ctarxo to repair H- OXE TEST FOrt PEARLS. nerlln Hotel Porter's Experiment That Was Not a Sucre. The porter of one of the leading Berlin hotels has Just had a curious adventure. Some time ago a dealer in pearls who was stopping at the ti'-i toll him en Infallible way to cl.ninguibh real pearls from false, which was to put them on the ground and stamp on them. If real they would resist the test. If false they would be crushed. The porter, however, never had a chance of putting this theory to tbe test until a few days ago. The di rector of a well known company In Berlin, while dining at the hotel, lost a valuable pearl pin. This was found by the waiter, who gave It to the porter to return to Ita owner. The porter saw hla opportunity had come at last to test the quality of a pearl. He put the pin on the ground, placed his heel on It and ground It to a powder. Wben the owner arrived to claim It there was a somewhat stormy scene, but he was good natured enough to consent to say no more about the affair on the porter refunding half the value of the pin, 600 marks. In future the porter will submit any Jewelry be may And for expert opinion. A Mere Petall. "The common practice of lawyers in addressing the Jury to single out one member who seems to them the most Intelligent, and therefore the one most likely to be Influenced by their appeals," observed a Chicago attorney, "does not always work out advantageously. "All the testimony In a case re rently tried In Ohio had been taken the lawyers for both sldea had sum med up and the Judge had charger' the Jury, when up rose the intelll gent Juror against whom both coun sel had thundered their Impasslone appeals. He wanted the court t give him some Information. "I have been bothered a good des' by two words the lawyers use her' ail the time," said the lntelligen Juror. "What are they?" asked the court expecting, no doubt, to be calle' upon to expound "reB Inter alios ar ta" or "a fortiori," or some other ab truse term. " 'Plaintiff' and "defendant." sal the Juror. "I don't know Just wha they mean' " Flying Fish. Interesting are the habits of th flying fish, that queer denizen of tl' sea. found principally In the reglo of the trade-winds. Does It rls from the sea like a bird? you as! No; It shoots out of the waves Ilk an arrow, and with out spreadln wings sails on the wind in gracefn curves, rising sometimes, one mlgh say, to the height of fifteen feet, bu not often so high, and then lowerln It again touches the crest of a wav and renews tts flight. This open1 tion may be repeated till It eover a distance, say, of Ave hundre yards, In the case of the stoutest o the wing, though very often not ha! that distance Is covered. A shl sailing through the trade-winds wl! often be visited, on dark nights, b flying fish which bit tbe sails or r1 glng and fall on deck, where, o course, they soon give up life. Women Not as Strong as Men. "Women are not on the averagi but half as strong as men," said Dr Sargent, the director of athletica a Harvard, in a lecture recently "Their lung capacity averages bu' 160 cubic Inches, while that of ma ts 140 cubic Inches. In nearly ever: Instance," he ssld, "where womei excel In sports of tbe rougher o, more masculine sort they have elthei Inherited or acquired mascullm characteristics." For the Music Room. No piano can possibly be heard t advantage In a room which ia elthei heavily curtained or Is overcrowdei with furniture. A good plan to In sure the correct temperature of th room In which the piano atands la tr keep a growing plant there. So lonr aa the plant thrivea you can tell thai any cbangea of heat and cold there may be are not sufficient to affect tne Instrument. 8ome Odd Facta ir. Geography. New York Is usually thought of as being directly west from London. It Is. however, despite Its far more rig orous climate, nine hundred mile nearer the equator than is the British capital. The bleak coast of Labradot Is directly west of London. Tbe samt line pass -a the southern part of Hud aon Bay and Lake Winnipeg; on th other side of the continent it touches through the centre of the Isthmus o Kamchatka, and Siberia and Russia to Honibuig. it Is astonishing, like wise, to reflect on the fact that Mon treat, with its v 'nters of great sever ity.. is -hree bund'ed and fifty nillet nearer the equator than ia London Montreal, inderd. ia on the same de gree of latitude as Venice. Anothei illustration of the unexpected In con trasts Is found in a comparison of St John's, Newfoundland, with Pari' Pnris bas a winter of comparative mildness, while St. John's Is a reglot. of bitter cold and fogs, witb driftlns Icebergs along its coast. Vet St loan's Is one hundred miles nearei the equator. Duon.e Advertiser. England Adopts French System.

It should not take the women till noon to get their morning house work done. If they would systema tise the work they wculd get an bour or two's rest before time to begin their dlnuer. first, after breakfast, the dishes should be wail ed by stacking them In pan at.d pout tug hot Kates over tbem; Ihtn take out and put In an other pan to dry. The diahos, being hot, will be eu. y to dry. Second, the beds should be made up, so if any straw or ftathcrs are left they can be removed when sweeping. Third comes sweeping. Fourth, while the dust Is settling, cleaning lamp chimneys, stacking books or any other little chores could be done. Fifth, or last of all, would be dust ing. If there are two or three girls in the family each one should be given a task and by so doing the work would be dune before you hardly know It. Try the systematic way and see bow much better you like It than the old way of forgetting what there Is to do before you get anything done. Harm Hone by Wrong Food.
