First and Largest i Antal Cemetery - By Francis Dickie In Western Home Monthly On Wrecker's Island, in the middle of the Seine River, and not far from Paris, there is the world's largest pub- , tic burial ground for animals. Here urn the graves -of over 25,000 animals.I Opposite the imposing stone gateway, a great slab of carved stone tells the. story of Barry, the famous St. Ber- nard, wito saved so many lives. The noble dog la depicted with a little girt whom he had saved in the bitter cold, upon his back, Barry had `to his credit the saving of forty lives. With remarkable In- telligence he would go out and tied travellers who had lapsed into the first drowse of death which. causes with intense cold. Ile would shake them violently until their attention was aroused; ellen, with clever pan- tomime, make them follow hen, Often he carried or dragged cold victims to safety; if he could not do this ha wont for help. Barry lost hie life at the • hands of a traveller crazed with the cold, who, seeing the enormous dog coning towards him through the blind- ing snow, mistook him for a bear, and tie frantic horror drove his ice -pick through the back of the St, Bernard, Even then, tlhe dog saved him, because the trail of his blood in the scow as 110 made his wdy back to the tnouastery of St. Bernard led the monks to the man. This first public cometety for ani- mals is dedicated to Barry. But it is snot confined to dogs. Here animal !lovers have paid last tribute to cats, horses, monkeys, parrots, canaries and carrier pigeons. Even two pet Bone, ,the favorites of Pezon, • the Minas animal trainer, are 'buried here beside their foster mother, a huntltig dog who raised them from birth. The early Egyptians were very par - Mauler about giving their animals spe- cial burial; the cat and the bull played important parts in the life of tete ea - ton, and were buried in separate' graves over whielt a monument was raised. Men during all ages have been kind to animals, During the Mid• t ,die Ages people treated their dumb jbeasts with particular kindness to , Con.pensate them for the immortality ,which was cleated them. In recent and -present times there have been minter- ling private cemeteries for animals,. he most famous of these, perhaps be• ,ing; the ono which Queen Victoria had at Windsor for her departed pets, and (that of rredertclr the Great at Sans Soul: On this island in the Seine one .finds the finest expression 01 man's resume •branee of hes dumb comrades who shave shared his lot.

Yet the island is rapid, ly being covered with permanoht tombs. Some are very elaborate in: finest marble, At the island's lower end stands a. crematorium.

"simple • and cheap" remedy for the :mourn of infant anaemia is announced by the Medical Research Council, It la the result of five years' re- search work in the east end of Lon- don by a woman doctor, Dr. Helen Mackay, anti her colleagues. They have discovered that the ad- dition. of Iron, together with am- monium oktritte to a normal milk diet for infants prevents and cures anae- mia; raises the resistance to infection, considerably improves the rate of growth. The chief experiment was conducted at the Queen's Hospital for Children, where two evenly matched sets of Children were kept under observation, one group being given iron and iron salt, and the other used as controls. Iron treatment !halved the morbidity rate for di!:oases of tate respiratory and gastrointestinal traet. The infants in the iron group, after three months' treatment, averaged a pound ntore,it weight .ban the ordin- ary diet group. pontmenting on Dr. Mackay's work the Medical Research Council Ma: "Her report shows that anaemia Persists widespread among infants in Loudon, and that there is still a group, of illnesses in Infancy directly associ- ated with anaemia, and readily cur- able by the simple method of adding tion (perhaps also with infinitestmat quantlties of copper and manganese) II to the milk diet.

Wo know/thee man !las developed, in all probability, gradually, from the nearest subhuman forms,' under the exciting influence of environment luring his progress he,differentiated into numerous types and races, the less successful :de -which have become extinct. He is still substantially at- tuned ti Nature, though the relation is weakened through his artificialities. Mart multiplied very slowly up until the end of the last main glaciation; from that time he began to spread all over the habitable eartl, the various types and races all developing from one human species. • The main phenomena of human dif- ferentiation or "evolution" through- out the past, are on one hand a pro- gressive mentality, or. the other hand a progressive physical adaptation and eventual refinement. It is a wonier- ful and, in general. sustained proga'ess from the more or Tess ape -like precur- sor to the highest type of man and woman of today. The present is mere- ly a developing continuation of the past. Man stilt appears to be as plas- tic in body and mind as ever he as, probably even more so; he is still struggling with environment, though controlling it more and more every day; and he still changes. He lives longer and better. He suf- fers less physically. Elimination of the leas fit has largely changed to elimination of the unfit only. Less mother's and child's hard labor, more and better food, with exercise, sport and personal hygiene,- are bringing about an increase in stature of civil- ized man, while less use of the jaws and muscles of mastication is reduc; ing the jaws. the breadth, protrusion and massiveness of the face. The head in general among the cultured is becoming slighly broader and larger, the skull and'facial bones thinner, the physiognomy more lively and expres- sive. The features, the hands, the feet are becoming more refined, and gen eral'beauty is on the increase, in both men and women. The sensory organs and centees, particularly those of sight, hearing and taste, are evidently growing mere effective as well as more resistant. And there is an un- questionable advance In civilized man of mental effectiveness and mental endowments. Records in endurance and in accomplishments ate ever being surpassed, and in modern commerce, industry, finance, science, applied arts, bring to light mental giantafter men- tal giant, Those and other progressive changes1 in the cultured man of the present are resulting, it is true, in various wealtenings and consequent disorders. The hair, especially in men, is being lost . prematurely; the teeth are weakened in resistance, there are troubles in eruption, and some of the dental units tend to disappear. The facial changes, while favoring a greater variety and higher range of the voice, lend often to disturbing ir- regularities of the nasal structures and palate. The weakenings through less use of the feet and other organs (appendix, muscles, etc.) result in difficulties. even dangers. Great mental application favors digestive and other disorders. But all these ad- vantages are being checked by adap- tations and have but moderate effect of retardation on the general evolu- tionary progress of civilized man. In the light of man'S past and his present it is very likely that he will continue to progress in adaptation, refinement and differentiation. But this applies only to the main stream of humhnity, the civilized man. The rest will be mere or less brought along, or left behind. Now without sorrow and without ela- tion I Can lay down my body, nor deplore How little, with her insufficient ra- tion, Ltfe+ltas to feed us—but these hands, must they; ' Go in the same blank, ignominious way And fold upon themselves, at tast,,no more? -!-Sara Teasdale, in The Saturday Re- vieve, of Literature. The progress of the advancing parts of the race may be foreseen to be es- sentially towards even greater men- tal efficiency and potentiality. The further mental developments may the expected to be attended by an addi, tfonal increase in brain size; although the gross increase willbe of but mod- erate proportiohe. The main changes will be in the internal organization of the brains, in greater blood -supply, greater general effectiveness,; The skull will in alt probability be still thinner than it is today, and will likely grow fuller laterally and antero- posteriorly, due to developments in the directions of least resistance. The in- dications are that the hair on the head will be further weakened. The eta- tare .promises generally to be even somewhat higher than today among the best nourished and least repressed groups. The face is likely to become more refined, handsome, and with snore character, partly on account of intensifying intelligent sexual selec- tion, partly through further reduction of the bony parts consequent upkn diminished mastication. and Putter through the further development of the frontal portion of the skull. The eyes tett be deeper set, the nose prom- inent and rather narrow, the mouth still smaller, the chin more prominent, the' jaws even more moderate and less regular, ,the teeth tending to smaller, diminished mostly in number, even less regular than now in eruption and. position, and even less resistant. The future of the beard is uncertain, but no such weakening as with the hair of the head is yet observable.`..

But substantial changes will probably require millenniums; the functions are Joo firefly established for any quick change. So much for normal conditions. There is,'regrettahly also the debit side to be considered. Man has ever paid for his advance, is paying now, and .will pay int'fufllre, Functional disorders, digestive, secretive, elimin- ative, disorders of sleep and sexual, can not but multiply with the increas- ing' stresses, eruptions and absorp- tions, Mental derangements will prob- ably be more frequent. Destructive diseases such as diabetes, and various skin troubles, will probably increase until • thorqughly understood ane hin- 'dered. The teeth, the mouth, the nosethe eyes and ears, will ever call increased ncreased attention: The feet will trouble. Childbirth will not be easier nor less painful; though. assistance will equally rise in effectiveness. Due to prolonged life, heart troubles, apoplexies, cancer and senile weak- nesses of all sorts, will tend to be more common, until mastered by'medi- cine. All this, 'with many social ab- normalities, will retard man's pro- gress but wilt not stop it, for the indi- cations are that he will ripe equal to all his growing needs as they develop and begin 'to hurt. If there is a dan- ger to human future, it is in the low- ered birthrate. As man advances in knowledge he will grow to understand what is best for him. so that it will be easier for him to follow the right road. He will advance in the control of nature;`he will better understand disease and its antidotes and immunization. Badger Is Miner of Animal Kingdom Tonopah, Nev.—Two men were mo - tering leisurely along the road skirt- ing the Monte Chrlsto Hills west of Tonopah, Nex. One was a young geologist fresh from college, the other a grizzled pros; actor. A badger dodged out from a clump of sage upon the hillside and scurried acmes the road. The prospector made no move to lift the gun he was holding across his knees. "Why didn't you shoot him?" asked the geologist. ' The prospector shook his head. "A badger is a miner and some of our biggest mines were dia- covered -by some prospectoe picking up a chunk of rich rock some badger had kicked out fu digging in the side of some hill:' PROFESSION It Is of great importance to observe that the characterof every man is in some degree formed by hie profes- sion. A elan of sense may only have a cast of countenance that wears off, as you trace his individuality; while the weak, common man has scarcely ever any Oharacter, but what belongs to the body; at least, all his opinions have been so steeped in the vat COM- soorated by authority, that the faint spirit which the grape of his own vine Yields, cannot be distinguished. Society, therefore, as it becomes more enlightened, should be very careful not to establish bodies of hien, who must necessarily be made foolish or vicious by tate very constitution of tltetr profession. — Mary Wooistoue- craft, The Lake In sprltt of youth it Was my lot To haunt of the wide world a, spat The witted I could not loco the less, So lovely was the loneliness 01a wild lake, with black rock bound, And the tall pines that towered around, Owl 'Laffs The County Fair This lathe tiine Whoa overywhero Men drag The filvver'front its Her And hustle' "to the county fair, I love the life upon the grenade, The shoot the ahoote and whirl grounds.

You get all these six salts in Hruscitcn Salts, and each one of them Ihas an action of its own, Together, ' they stimulate and tune up the bodily functions front a number of differen5 angles. The first effect of these mite is to promote tate flow o£ the saliva and so awaken the appetite.
