Since Yucatan, where the Mayas built their strange cities, Is n coral limestone formation, It would, says a writer In Itccords of tho Post, hav been a barren desert but for Its sub tdrrnnenn rivers, nnd the cenotes, or water caverns, which give access them.

Just above tho pointed end tho diameter of tho tube, for a short dls innce, is n little euiargcd. ine conse quence Is that for tho greater part of its length the tube does not press tight against the ground, and thus the operation or witnurawing it la more easily performed.

Very young bass will attack minute water life which flourishes on water plants and get nwav with every ono In sight, adopting the same methods ns their elders. To Illus trnto the extent of the cannibalism of tho black bass, hero is the experience of a superintendent of one of the fish hatcheries in Pennsylvania : Tho superintendent made an actual count of 20,000 young bass about an Inch long and placed them in n fry pond by themselves. He gave them food six times a dny. nnd, according to bis statement, each fish nto on an nvcrago three times Its own weight of tho pre pared food every twenty-four hours. They were placed In a pond on July 1 and on Oct. 1, when they were taken out, there were only 11,000 and the record showed thnt less than 200 died from sickness. It Is reasonable to sup pose, therefore, thnt in addition to tho food given them by tho superintendent, there were nbout 0,000 bass devoured their stronger nnd more fortunate companions," Almoftt I.Ike IIiinhIh, Among the wilder tribes of tho Cau casus every child is taught to use tho dagger nlmost ns soon ns bo can walk.

How to Exercise the Bowels Your Intestines are lined inside with millions of little suckers, that draw tho Nutrition out of food as It passes them. But, If the food passes too slowly, it decays before It gets through. Then tho little suckers draw'Polson from it instead of Nutrition. This Poison makes a Gas that injures your system more than the food should have nourished it. You see, the food Is Nourishment or Poison, just according to how long It stays in transit. They do not waste any precious fluid of the Bowels, as Cathartics do. They do not relax the Intestines by greasing them inside like Castor Oil or Glycerine. . - They simply stimulate the Bowel Muscles to do their work naturally, com fortably, and nutritiously. And, the Exercise these Bowel Muscles are thus forced to take, makes them stronger for the future, Just as Exercba makes your arm stronger. .urrftm ri f. i r it inan ra it . m m a 1 1 u i j ivjut lor T woyr!
