OUR DEBT TO THE CAVE MAN
Tribute to Him by Willlam James
One of Most Eloquent Pas
> * sages in Literature, - %
One of the most eloquent passages
in American literature is William
James' tribute to the cave man, says
the Detroit News. He wrote: “Bone
of our bone and flesh of our flesh, are
these half-brutish prehistoric brothers.
Girdled about with the immense dark
ness of this mysterious universe even
as we are, they were born, and dled,
suffered and struggled. Given over to
fearful crime and passion, plunged In
the blackest ignorance, preyed upon by
hideous and grotesque delusions yet
steadfastly serving fhe profoundest
of ideals In their fixed falth that ex
istence in any form ,is better than
non-existence, they ever rescued tri
vmphantly from the jaws of ever
imminent destruction the torch of life
which, thanks to them, now lights the
world for us, ’
“How small Indeed seem Individual
distinctions when we look back on
these overwhe!lming numbers of hu
man beings panting and straining
under the pressure of that vital want.
And how inessential in the eyes of
God must be the small surplus of the
individual’'s merit, swamped as it is in
the vast ocean of the common merit
of mankind dumbly and undauntingly
doing the fundamental duty and liv
ing the heroic life. We grow hygble
and reverent as we contemplate the
prodigious spectacle.” )
‘OMENS OF ANCIENT ROMANS
How They Observed Birds and Cut
Up Animals to Find Out
“the Signs.”
The ancient Romans belleved in
slgns. When they wanted to know
whether to do this thing or that, they
tried to find out “the signs.” Some
persons looked at birds flying over
head. Others cut up animals, to see
what “signs” were inside.
Perhaps most interesting of all was
the custom of keening certain chick
ens. and calling them sacred, If some
one wanted to know if a plan would
succeed, he tried to feed the chickens,
If they ate heartily, it was a good
sign. 1f they refused to eat, the plan
was prohably given up.
When a Roman died, food and drink
were placed beside his body In the
tomb. Animals were sacrificed, and
milk or wine was thrown on the
ground, This was repeated every
vear. If the relatives forgot, the soul
was supposed to become evil and to
bring bad luck.
Animals were sacrificed in honor
of the gods, as well as for the spirits
of men., Pigs, oxen, and sheep were
the creatures most often killed. Flour
and galt were sprinkled over each ani
mal, its head was covered with cloths,
and then the priest raised a large
knife or an ax for the death-dealing
blow. Prayers were said by those
looking on. The bones and fat were
placed on the altar and burned.
Dictionary Long Time in Making.
For three centuries some of thé
fo(;emost lHterary men of France have
been working at a book that Is not
yvet completed, -ior, presumably, ever
will be. They are the forty *“lm
mortals” of the French academy, and
the book is their French dictlonary.
The French academy, says the Mentor
magazine, was founded early in the
Seventeenth century by a group of
young men who wished to purify and
embellish the language. They under
took to publish a dictiomary, a rhet
orle, and a grammar. In 1694 the
dictionary was published, but the first
part of it was then already out of
?flte, and needed revision. And, so it
