A human skull was lately found in China’s ancient storied ground, and scientists looked on and said, “The owner of that skull’s been dead at least a million years, by jings; he’s classed with prehistoric things.” No one can now identify that poor_ old lost and nameless guy; no one cail say what was his trade; or whether he had made the grade; when one’s been dead a million years no sort of evidence appears by which to reconstruct his life, or place him in the mundane strife. The skull's declared the greatest find in all the story of mankind. It differs from the moedern head in divers ways, so it is said. It seems to show the owner was a man with heavy muscled jaws with which he might have bitten through a good sized marrowbone or two. His brow is low, to indicate a brain of no impressive weight. He must have had a bestial air—I'd hate to meet him any- where, But there is naught, in size or shape, that is suggestive of an ape. The skull is human, every way, and shows that on that distant day man still was man, as he is now. which is suggestive, we'll allow. Always hoped to prove our claim that upward from the apes we came for that would show we had the pep to struggle upward, step by step. ‘There’s inspiration in the thought we once were monkeys, rude, untaught, who ‘branches by our tails and filled the forest with our walls, that with a higher goal in mind we left the monkey tribes behind, and took our place at last as men, and went to Con- the pen.

Your Baby and Mine BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED, Some of the most pathetic letters we read are from young mothers who are being torn this way and that, in an at- tempt to rear their childre; doctors and child psychologists of to- day are advising, yet still keep peace with the usually disapproving older generation. From experience we have one word of advice for the young mother. Don’t make the first mistake of turning the baby over to grandmother just because you want to run out and be free of baby's care, and then demur when grandmother spoils the child, feeds him wrongly, and, as will inevitably happen sooner or later, turns this domineering, spoiled child over to the mother say- 1iny T can’t do & thing with him, now it's your turn.” The first step is so easy to take. Young mothers are so unsure of their own opinions. They are so ready and willing to listen to their elders, and when they find that things don't work out, they alone must take all the cor- rective steps. The adults are willing enough to spoil the child, but are never willing to do the subsequent disagree- able work that will undo what they have done. It is absolutely natural for grand- parents to spoil their grandchildren. Even if grandmother disciplined her own children and showed them what was what, she is weak as water with | her grandchild. She is also sure to feel that her daughter, who may be no sterner than she was, is too harsh daughter would not give him. The two generations are inevitably at cross purposes. The grandmother has as her ally all the female adult relatives whether they have ever had children or not. The sternest disciplinarians who haven’t an ounce of sympathy for the growing child are those who have never had a child to deal with, but are ready to tell the world what they would do if that child were theirs. - - A mother cannot shed her responsi- | bilities onto any one’s shoulders. She can’t ask help of grandmother and then expect that grandmother will stick to all the details of regular hours and feeding that the young mother knows are so important. Only the two young parents concerned have one word to say in the matter of discipline. No one else has the least right to inter- fere or even criticize. n in the way | pa FEATURES. C—7 be in the matter of feeding or disci- or sleeping hours or what not, t as soon as results are unsatisfac- tory the relatives wash their hands of the child, “It's your baby, you have to take care of him.” It is a wise mother who foresees that in advance and uses her own head, makes her own mistakes and knows what to do to correct them. It is an even wiser grandparent who has strength enough to say when the by is born, “You alone are responsi- ble for what this child is to be. You must learn how to take care of him. Don’t depend upon me.” o The development of synthetic fra- grances is becoming an important in- dustry in this country and many un- savory substances are transformed into the most delicate odors. Synthetic lilac, for example, is terpinol, which is pro- duced from oily, smelly turpentine. @elatin of Chicken. One ounce gelatin, one-half cupful cold water, 2 cupfuls bolling water or chicken stock, three-fourths teaspoon- ful vinegar, one broiler, salt to taste, , one-fourth teaspoonful cayenne pepper, capers, Let the gelatin soak in the cold water for about half an hour. Then add the | boiling water or chicken stock (chicken bouillon cubes may be added to the boiling water) and stir until the gelatin is dissolved. Have a broiled fowl cut in small pieces after it is taken off the bones. Salt the gelatin mixture to taste and add the cayenne. When the gelatin is slightly thickened put the chicken into small molds if for salad or in a large mold if to be served whole, add a few Ts to each mold and pour the gelatinl over. Set in the re- frigerator untif firm and turn out on lettuce leaves. ‘There is no doubt that if the young mother follows every one’s advice against her own judgment, whether it lit Cofted Blended with care from quality Coffees, according to a formula which we have been 30 years in perfecting.
