An expedition is to search Asia for the “Missing Link"——the animal be- tween man and the ape. The scientists who will compose the party will be gone from this country five years, and It Is expected there will be brought back more facts concerning man's physical origin than have ever before been found. The expedition is backed by well known people. It appeals to the imagination of the layman, and to the brain of the scientist. Leaving aside all humorously in- tended remarks sych as “One doesn't have to go to Asia to find the missing link; there are plenty here especially about election time,” the expedition’s return will be awaited with keen in- terest. There has been a discovery of the skeleton of an animal probably dating back 500,000 years, with many of man's characteristics, and this is one of the facts leading those in- terested to belleve that some “missing lnk" did or does exist. Proof of this is sought. Few of us as children have not visited the'circus side show where a “missing link” was supposed to be upon display. The Interest we felt then, when we believed, was no keen- er than the interest we know mow when we have the authority of sclence that there is a probability that such an animal existed. The fact that the missing link of boyhood was some gentleman of color, decorated with a huge wig and in- structed to roll his eyes and look “missing,” did not take from our awe as we gazed into his cage and heard the smooth-spoken announcer de- scribe the danger of his capture, and habits. May we not feel that our interest in this expedition has a little firmer foundation, and may we not walt for its return that will about our comes back. his present in the hope know something more physical selves when it we THU COMETH OUT.

He returns to repudiate the League as a League be- cause he is a republican, we imagine. He must know that his ebjections will not hold water.

Rus- sell of Burnside was held up and the occupants relieved of $60 in cash, a gold watch, a fob and a Red Men's button near the fork of the roads at North Broad street and the Berlin road at about 10:40 o'clock last night. The party was returning to Burnside and when reaching the fork of the road a man with a gun held up the car and asked the persons to turn over all they had while another man stood out in the road. The Meriden police were notified of the hold-up and patrolmen were detailed to the scene. The surrounding territory was searched by the local of- ficers but there was no trace of the hold-np men. Root | “JEST RUMINATIN'» (Rcbert Russell.) \ “I haven't got the time to spare,” we're allus apt to say when someone calls to talk to us upen oup busy day. We are not interested, that's the truth ‘most every time; an’ tellin’ o" the truth ain’t what you'd call an awiul crime. An’ apropos o this remark, it allus seems the case that those who have the east te do affect that ‘“busy” face. Jest tuke a look back through the day; you'll see that time was there to talk o' golf or gossip—yet you “had no time to spare.” You start a let- ter: “I have been so busy,” it begins, an’ then you give ex- | cuses for procrastinatin’ sins. “O" course,” says that ol' pipe ©0' mine, “there s jobs that take too long to do 'em in the time ‘twould take a chap to sing a song. But little courtesies o’ life—a word, a card, a deed ain't properly included in that “awful busy” creed. It ain't a bad idea this—to get your duties done an’ then you'll find |] vyour pleasures bring a heap sigh: lot more fun.” CITY ITEMS Exclusive agents Stetson Shoes. Besse-Leland Co.—advt.
