Took Man Centuries
to See Value of Fork
' In the "good old timet," whvn hu
man beinga were always within 24
boura of narration, man ate only
wltb bla fingera. lie hunted for bis
food u the woods or by the eea
abore, and be picked the bone
clean.
Two tehle art Idea are found
among uncivilized peoples the
anue ana the spoon.
The knife waa originally a weap
on of attack or defense; it was
uawa ror cutting and curving flesh,
but its convenience in eating soon
became apparent.
The origin of the spoon la uncer
tain. It must have been Invented
at a very ancient date, for it la
round among people that have never
come into contact with civilization.
The necessity toi having some
implement ror dipping water seems
to have led flrat to the Invention of
the calabash, or the use of the co
conut shell, and later on to the
spoon.
It waa many thousand years
later before there were forks. As
a French writer on table etiquette
has said, "from the creation of the
world until the beginning of the
Seventeenth century man ate only
with bis Angers." This Is, how
ever, a mistake of 400 years, for wa
And forka as early as the Thir
teenth century, when they are men
tioned as being kept for special pur
poses.
British Guiana Jungle
Still Aw Jits Explorer
British Oulana bush Is a danger
ous maze. Savages find their way
by means of secret marks, but a
tenderfoot enters at great risk. The
country la five times the size of
Knglund, and there are not more
than ten white men who bave gone
Into the wilds of the Interior, ac
cording to D. Bannerman Clarke,
M. A., gvnerul tnanHger of the
Aranka Gold, Limited, of George
town, British Oulana, says the Lon
don Mall.
The natives, he says, bave the
most marvelous sense of direction,
and find their way through the Jun
gle with unerring precision. They
bave a sort of sign language. They
make marks on trwa which only
they understand, and If some one
has followed the natives he can al
ways tell how large the party was,
whither they went, and Just when
they passed the given spot by these
curious marks on the trees made
with cutlasaes.
They also leave marks for their
own guidance when they turn about
and start homeward.
Youth and Middle Age
Touth la the time for action
middle age for thought. In youth,
red-handed, red-ankled, with songs
and shoutings, we gather In the
grapes; In middle nge, under our
own flg tree or in quiet gossip with
a friend, we drink the wine free of
all turbid lees. Youth Is a lyrical
poet middle age Is a fiilet essayist,
fond of recounting experiences, and
of appending a moral to every in
cident. In youth the world la
strange and unfiimlllur, novel and
exciting; everything wears the face
and garb of a stranger; In middle
age the world Is covered over with
reminiscences as with a garment, It
Is made homely wltb usage. It Is
made sacred with graves.
City May Have Been Myth
The ancient city of Troy Is sup
posed to have occupied a slight ele
vation near the foot of Mount Ida,
In Uysla, and nearly surrounded" By
the Klver Sramander, but its loca
tion la In dlapu'e and some even
doubt that I; over existed. Ttw
foundlLg of the kingdom Is ascribed
to Teucer, wboae grandson waa
Troaa, who waa the father of II ua,
wbo called the eity Dlum after him
self and also Troja after Troaa, bis
rathe The classic poeU say that
the walls of the city were built by
the magic sound of Apollo's lyre.

Youthful Mountains
As old as the bills means little In
Haiti, for the mountains there) are
very young and the earth's crust
very mobile.
Dr. Wendell P. Woodrlng of the
United States geological survey
says that the rising of tbese hills
probably -causes the earthquakes
wblch at intervals shake the north
ern part of the country. Some of
the coral reef caps cover marine
terraces that rise like gigantic
stairs from sea level to a height
of about 1,500 feet. These terrace,
begun in Miocene times, are pre
served because of the aridity of the
climate and underground drainage.
Fight Decided Name
In 1803 the community now known
as Barre, Vt., was undecided at to
tiie new name for the town, the
original name of which was Wllbet
burgb. A change was decided on in
1783. Eventually the prospective
names narrowed down to two. Hol
der, sponsored by Capt. Joseph
Thompson, and Barre, offered by
Jonathan- Sherman, both names be
ing after Massachusetts towns.
The controversy developed Into a
fist fight, Sherman winning. The
city fathers and the legislature hon
ored the victor by naming the town
Barre.
DUpoial of "Dead Letters"
Letters and other mall matter
which cannot for any reason be de
livered are sent to the dead letter
office. Where possible the dead
letter office returns this mall to the
senders. Otherwise the letters are
destroyed. Valuable articles are
kept for a certain length of time
In the office. Some time ago the
Post-Office department sold at pub
lic auction a large number of such
objectc Inquiries respecting lost
mail should give tne date when it
was mailed and should be ad
dressed to Division of Dead Let
ters, Post-Office department. Wash

Easy to Discover the
, Moral in This Story
It was indeed a lucky day when
Barry Raymond of Los Angeles em
barked for San Francisco. The
steamer was crowded with passen
gers and there were not enough
staterooms to go round. Harry no
ticed an old gentleman who had
no place to sleep, and taking pity
on his age, offered to share his
stateroom with him.
The old man gladly accepted and
tne two occupied the room to
gether. Samuel Harrison, Ray
mond's guest proved to be a broth
er of Raymond's mother. Then Ray
mond learned that another uncle,
Henry Harrison, had died, leaving
a fortune of about SVXXOOO to Ray
mond's mother. But Raymond's
mother was dead and Raymond was
entitled to the inheritance.
So Is kindness rewarded not
only in romances but also very
often In everyday life. Pathfinder

Ancient Plate Prized
by Historical Society
The Verendrye plate, a square bit
f leaden plate, la said to be the
most celebrated bit of matter In
South Dakota's hiatory. It repotet
in the capital building at Pierre, in
poHealon of the South Dakota His
torical society. It was found burled
In the earth near Pierre In 1917.
This remarkable plate was pre
pared either In prance or in Mon
treal at the request of the older
Verendrye, and in anticipation of
the expedition of 1741, which bad
been planned by his eldest son
Pierre, Into the Mandan country In
the far wilderness of America. It
la thought that the explorers plant
ed the plate on the banks of the
Missouri, opposite what Is now
Pierre, on the hill where It waa
found. It bears, translated from
French, this Inscription:
"In the twent.v-tilxth year of the
reign of Louis XV, the most Illus
trious Lord, the Lord Marquis of
Beauharnols being Viceroy, 1751,
Pierre Gaultler de Luverendrye
placed this." Detroit News.
"For the Merry Heart
Is a Gladsome Thing"
Fortunately for the world Its sup
ply of Bottled Sunablne far exceeds
that of its Wet Blankets. If this
were not so what an unbearable
place the world would he I Some
lands, people and centuries are
rlfher In It than others. Children
and puppies and kittens and lambs
and all young things (unless they
be III) are Bottled Sunshine. Pre
cious atones and coal, flower buds
and aeeds and the kernels of fruit
are Bottled Sunshine. Flashes of
kindly wit and peals of laughter
from out of a merry heart are its
very essence.
Beautiful, bewitching, attractive
In an unatahle, uncertain sort of
way, are the dispositions of some
people, of whom it may be said.
"They have a mercurial tempera
ment." Better to be merry, to be known
as Bottled Sunshine, with a heart
as full of the Joy and gladness of
living as are the woods of singing
birds In the springtime. Montreal
