THE RACES OF MANKIND. There -Are 72 of Them Existing Now- All Came From Asia. M. de Quantrefiiges, the leading French ethnologist, in presenting the second part ot his “Introduction to the Study of the Human Races” to the Academy of Sciences, has given an interesting summary of his gener al conclusions with regard to the ori gin and distribution of mankind. Neglecting the minor differences, he estimates that there are no fewer than 72 distinct races in the human species. All these descend or branch off from three tundamental types— the black, the yellow and the white —which had their origin at the great central mass of Northern Asia, which is thus the cradle of mankind. Rep resentatives of these different types and the races which sprang from them are still to be found there. The whites, according to M. dc Quartrefages, appear to have original cd on the west of tiie central mass, the yellows on the north, and the blacks on the south. The whites ex tend westward and northward, giv ing birth to three secondary types, the Finnish, the Semitic and the Ary an, if we except the Allophylcs which form a separate group. Their area of distribution is continuous, ns is thn® of the yellows, because of the ex tensive land surface of the Eurasian continent. The yellows spread east ward and crossed into America. The whites and yellows checked or blend ed with each other, producing many varieties of man. The black or negro type, which originated on the south of the central mass, was forced by the nature of the continent, and proba bly by the attacks of the whites and yellows, to go south into Africa and east into the Indian Archipelago, or Melanesia. The proto-Semites arrest ed their distribution in the north of Africa, and the mixture of the two races gave rise to the negroid populations, .In the centre and south of Africa the blacks continued in their ethnic purity until the infiltra tion of other races from Europe and the north of Africa in modern times. Those which remained in their origi nal home became blended with the whites and the yellows, giving rise to the dravidian populations which pass by shades in to the three fundament al types. As for the Allophylcs, represented by the race of Cro-Magnon, they pc cupied parts of Europe and North Africa, from which they extend to the Canaries. The three fundamental types also found themselves in Ocean ia; the Allophylian whites occupying Polynesia. The latter were, accord ing to M. de Quatrefages, the latest to come into the maritime world. The peopling of America dates from the quaternary period, and is due to migrations of different types Allophylic white and yellow, blending with the local quatcrnaiy races, which also belonged to the yellow type. Europe, since the tertiary ages, 1ms received only Alloplian whites, Finns and Aryans. The number of '•aces now existing in a pure state is exceed ingly restricted if, indeed, there is a single one that can he accepted as such. Perhaps some little groups, protected by their isolation, such as the Mincopies, may show an identity of characters attesting the ethnic hom- ogenity. Why Leaves Change Color. An eminent hoianist thus explains in Forest and Stream why leaves change color ; “The green matter in the tis sue of a leaf is composed of two colors —red and blue. When the sap ceases to flow in the tail, and the natural growth of the tree ceases, oxidation of the tissue takes place. Under certain conditions the green changes to red; under different conditions it takes on a yellow or brown tint. The differ ence in color is due to the difference in combination ot the original constit uents of the tissue, and to the varying conditions of the climate, soil and ex posure. A dry, cold climate produces a more brilliant foliage than one that is damp and warm. This is the rea son why our American autumns are so much more gorgeous than those of England. There are seieral things about leaves that science cannot ex plain. For instance, why one ot two trees growing side by side, of the same age and having the same exposure, should take on a brilliant red in the tall, and the other should turn yellow, or why one branch of a tree should be highly colored and the rest of the tree have only a yejlow tint, are questions that are as impossible to answer as why one member of a family should be perfectly healthy and another one sick- qr. Maples and oaks have the bright est colors.” WHICH WILL IT M2 1 Which is the fairest, a rose or a lily ? Which is the sweetest, a poach or a rear?
