The Stone Implements Once Made by a Tribe in New Guinea. Thirty-five years ago one of the great- est factories for making implements of the stone age such as adzes, chisels and spear points was near the east end of New Guinea. One of the small tribes there had made a reputation for chop- ping stones and grinding them to per- fection by great effort. The natives carried on a barter trade in these objects, which were sold all along the coast clear to the northern shores -of the island. The tribes, far'and wide, were certain that no other makers of stone implements rivalled the crafts- men of Suloga. About five years later an epidemic swept the villages occupied' by these stone workers nearly clean and with them died their special art of fashioning these articles. The few survivors fled to Suloga Beach, where they built two houses, in which they and their descen- dants have lived. A British anthropological expedition led by Dr. Seligman recently visited the. remnant of the tribe, where they found an old man who said to them : "My grandfather was a famous worker of stone and he taught his son, my fa- ther, ather, whom as a child I often saw at work. Undoubtedly he would have taught me as I grew up, but for the big sickness. He died, and I was never - taught, nor were any of my genera - lion." The explorers visited. the quarry from which the vc leant stone that was fashioned into implements was obtain- ed. They saw that a vast amount of work had been done there. The stone flakes that had -been chipped from pieces of rock covered acres and were several inches in depth. Among these stone chips were many implements in the earlier stages of manufacture, but no finished tools were found. The natives say their fathers used to break the rocks into workable fragments by dropping one upon ano ther from as high as a man could lift. The ultimate shape of the implement depended greatly on the workman's skill in cleaving; and after he had secured his piece of nearly ;suitable shape the work was little more than begun. The tool had then to be carefully roughed out, and finally came the grinding, which was hard and long work. • The explorers found about a dozen of these old grindstones. The depressions worn into them by the grinding process were circular, showing that the grind - ting motion was round and round -rather than back and forth. Sand and water were used to help the grinding process. Many unground stones were sent to other markets to be polished by their new owners, but the natives all say that no other stone workers were able to obtain the beautiful, even polish of the stones that were ground at Suloga. These objects are now in great de- pend for museums and private collet - tions. The leader of the British expedi- tion writes that traders find that they can afford to pay from $25 to 550 in trade goods for a superior specimen and are sure to sell it again at, a handsome profit. . . Only a vague idea of the detailed methods used to produce these stone objects can be obtained. This is un- fortunate, as all the light that can be so thrown upon the modem stone age is ea needed to explain thoroughly the pro- wa eesses of manufacture in piehistoric tra Mimes. 4 ra.

Here, for instance, is the story of'a remarkable oeourrenee which compassed the death of a little three-year-old boy named Morris Murkowit while he yas playing on the banks of a canal. The father, mother, and child were seated on the pier near a string of canal boats, when the child began doing gymnastics on one of the hawsers which stretched' from the boats to the piles. He was bal- ancing his body on the rope when he slipped and, fell just,as the 1onkg swell which had been flooding e. slip receded with a rush. The bots, of course, dropped down with the lowering water, bringing. the hawser, on which the .boy had ?`)en swinging, over his body and pinning him to the ground. He screamed once and his father and mother franti= °ally endeavored to drag him away, but he was caught in an unyielding vice, and before the could be cut the little. fellow was dead.

"Mob," now perfectly English, was at first merely slang for the ,Latin mobile, the . fickle . crowd; as. "cab" was slang for "cabriolet," and "furlong" for "furrow long," the length of a furrow, and as "nob" is slang for "nobility," We have words from men's names in the salve way. "Boycotting" is good English now. "Martinet," now indis- pensable, was the name of a historic general over -strict in discipline. "Der- rick" was a famous hangman of the seventeenth century, in Honor of whom the roughs nicknamed the gallows -like apparatus, and these are a few only out of scores of cases. "Kidnap" was thieves' slang for child -stealing; that is, to "nab a kid." "Tie," for cravat, was as much the slang of low life as 'choker" is now. "Conundrum," and "donkey," and "1"un," were all slang words, though perhaps not so low "Bore" was slang, and so was "bother.' "My heart is broken !" "What's the matter ?" "I was making love to my sweetheart last night, and her father came suddenly into the room." "Well, that was awkward, but hardly heart- breaking." "Wasn't it? The old man merely remarked that it was a pity she couldn't stick to the same fellow two evenings in succession.

Wien the baby is teething, the digess, tive organs ere being prepared to take. the different kinds of food and unless the child be very healthy, the nervous sys- tem is liable to be more or less irritated. Owing to the conditions at this time, says Good Health, the food should be changeaogradualiy, and the child kept in as good physical condition as possible, Tho drooling so commonly seen at this time is a provision of nature, and is pooling to the gurus. One may expect to find the gums in an inflamed condi- tion, Frequent swabbing of the parts with cool water arM the application of a weak solution of menthol, locally, usually reduces the fever, and leavesa cooling sensation. When the gums become dry and white and the baby seems to be irritable, the child should be taken to a dentist or a physician and the gums lanced thor- oughly, which will give relief. There is not much pain connected with the "'oper- ation. The baby teeth should be kept in re- pair and allowed to remain the full length of time in order to give the right path. for the permanent teeth whish are to take their place.
