It is from our remotest ancestors that we get many of our habits. Mankind's 1 1-11 ke of dark ness is as old as he is himself. All children fenr the dark and few grown ups are quite at their ease In it. Scientist trace stage fright back to the days when to be conspicuous meant to invite attack from more powerful animals. And the shyness Home people have about crossing a large room when other people are present i another inheritance from our primitive ancestors. In the for ests ,it was only the biggest and strongest animals, such as the bear, the elephant and the mastodon, who dared to walk straight across the wide open space. The others preferred, for safety's sake, to sidle or slink around the edges. Sclent 'st declare that the paraly sis that a sudden fright Is apt to cause la a trick we learned In our wilder dnys, nnd exactly corresponds to the death-shamming that some an imals are so adept In. The weaker anlma's learned ages ago that a mov ing object is much less likely to es cape the notice of a prowling enemy than the one that stays motionless. Do you like shaking hands? Many old people do not, and avoid the ceremony as much as possible. It is the old, animal dislike of being touch ed. The ordinary house dog is so civ ilized that it likes being petted, but take any wild or half-wild animal, such as an Eskimo dog, a touch will make It spring yards away, or bury its fangs into the intruding hand. All of us overcome this dislike in the case of our Intimate friends, but there are many people who, if their hands are touched accidentally In a crowd by a stranger, stealthily wipe them. The dream that everybody has had that of falling and being brought up w-lth a Jerk is a dream that always brings the dreamer awake with a start. Psychological science declares It Is probably the very oldest memory of the human race going back, In deed, to the days when our apelike an cestors lived and slept In trees Leader. 1 f?8vi No More Cold Hands Perfection m FORTl'NE COMES WITH HABY. An Infant Tliat Kronen Wraith and Yet MIxetl Th ngs fp Iladly. Scranton, Pa. When the stork dropped Into town on his usual rounds it called at the home of Charles R. Connell, nephew of former Congress man William Connell, and now Scran ton is boasting of a "half-milllon-dol-lar baby," while the boy's mother is proudly displaying Its charms to her fr'ends and at the same time showing a $10,000 diamond sunburst, the gift of the proud father. Under the will of the baby's grand father It was provided that if Its fath er died without Issue the estate was to go to the children of the former congressman, and Inasmuch as Mr. and Mrs. Connell had been married eight years without their un'on bless ed by chMdren, it began to look very much as If the behest of the will would stand. The arrival of the baby, how ever, set aside thi provision of the will and the J500.000 will now remain 'n the other branch of the family, no provision having been made by the decedent for its conversion In the event of the child's not living. lOltlMEll MI ST GO SAYS SEN ATM POLL A woman often does not notice what a cold day it is so long as she 6 i is bustling around the house, cut I when she sits down to her sewing and mending, she soon feels chilly.

Constituting what is said to be the largest matri monial offer in history, members of the Oatman Bachelors' Association of Oatmnn, Ariz, have proposed to 250 widows of Santa Monica. The offer is official, coming in the form of a letter to Chief of Police Barre'.to and being signed by sixteen directors of the bachelors' organiza tion. As the widows hold the balance of power in the city election of De cember 6 however, all steps toward a reply to the gigantic proposal e'th er Jointly or severally, will bp post poned until after that date, as the widows are needed to vote here then. The letter to Barretto, after stat ing that a newspaper account of the political power held by the widows of Santa Monica had reached Oatman, cont'nued: "We have an equal number of bachelors here, ranging in age from 20 to 41 years We also have a bachelors' association. If you could find It convenient to communicate with some of those fair widows and notify them of our Intentions, should they Intend to get married, we are convinced they would have no trou ble In getting husbands." Then follows a long list of the bachelors' names and descriptions, such as. "Andy Porter, 29 years old, six feet one Inch tall and 220 pounds heavy.'' The letter concludes: "These names are only a small margin compared with the great number of bachelors employed at the Tom Reed mining camp. We would suggest that you try to find us life partners."
