Evolution of Mankind
Nature was a long time before she
made up her mind exactly what the
lord of the earth was going to be.
Many races of primitive men have
come into being, covered large parts
of the earth and then died out because
they were failures. We are not even
descended from the thick-skulled,
crunching Java man or the hoav.v-
Jawed hairy man of Neanderthal,
though like us they can trace their,
descent hack to the same common an
••ester They were useless brandies of
the great tree that withered and died.
Nature evolved modern man hv dis
carding her failures ruthlessly and
concentrating on the stock ttiat
showed the greatest power of devel
oping and using its brains.—London
Tit-Bits.
Old Cloth Decoration
With the introduction of transfer
printed or penciled china from the
works at Battersea. Worcester and
Liverpool, copper plates were used in
decorating cotton cloth and advertise
ments came out with ‘ printed and pen
ciled furniture calico.” Benjamin
Franklin included some of the new
cotton with the china he sent to his
wife in 17r>8. saying. "There are also
fifty yards of cotton, printed entirely
from copper plate*, anew invention
to make bed and window curtains;
and seven yards of chair cottons print
ed in the same way, very neat.”
