: S————
Doctors have found by experiemee
that no medicine for colds and influ
enza can be depended upon for full ef
fectiveness until the liver is made thor
oughly active. That is why the first
step in the treatment is the new, nausea
less colomel tablets ecalled Calotabs,
which are free from the sickening and
weakening effects of the old style calo
mel. Doctors also point out the fact
that an active liver may go a long way
towards preventing influenza and is one
of the most important factors in en
abling the patient to successfully with
stand an attack and ward off pneu
monia. :
One Calotab on the tongue at bed
time with a swallow of water—that’s
all. No salts, no nausea nor the slight

has vanished, your liver is active, your

To Search for
“Missing Link”
Great Expedition Will Explore Re
mote Sections of Asia for Most
. Primitive Human Remains.
GREATEST EVER ORGANIZED.
oy .
China and Mongolia Expected to
Yield Up Treasures in Anthropol
ogy and Archaeology—Chinese
Superstition Big Drawback.
New York—To search for the most
primitive human remains, the “miss
ing link” between man and the apes,
will be the object of a great expedi
tion to be sent out by the American
Museum of Natural History in co-op
eration with the American Asiatic as
sociation and Asia Magazine. The ex
pedition will be the greatest of its
kind which has ever been organized
by any institution in the world and
will work for five years with a large
party of scientists in various remote
regions of central Asia. It will be un
der the direction and leadership of
Mr. Roy Chapman Andrews, Associdte
Curator of Mammals in the American
Museum of Natural History, who for
the last ten years has been carrying
on zoological explorations in wvarious
parts of the Far East. The expedition
will be financed by a fund of $250,000,
which is being provided by the Amer
ican Museum of Natural History, the
American Asiatic association and Asla
Magazine, and the private subscrip
tions of Mrs. Willard Straight, Messrs.
J. P. Morgan, George F. Baker, Childs
Frick, W. A. Harriman and Mr. and
Mrs. Charles L. Bernheimer.
When in the year 1891, a Dutch
army surgeon, Eugene Dubois, while
excavating for fossils in central Java,
discovered near Trinil part of a skull,
two molar teeth and a thigh bone, he
had unearthed one of the most per
plexing conundrums in the study of
human ancestry. Were the remains
those of an extremely early .type of
prehuman manlike animal? Jf so,
this apeman must have lived approx
imately five hundred thousand years
ago. This momenfous discovery has
been supplemented by that of other in
disputably human remains of which
the most ancient, found in southern
Germany, is the jaw of the so-called
Heidelberg man who may be two hun
dred and fifty thousand years old.
With the exception of the Java spec
imen, all fossil human fragments have
been discovered in Europe or England.
Nevertheless,. the leading scientists of
the day believe that Asia was thesearly
home of the human race and that
whatever light may be thrown upon
the origin of man will come from the
great central Asian platean.
Appeals to Imagination.
The subject is one that makes a
universal appeal to the imagination.
The causes that led to man’s evolu
tion from the apes, how that evolu
tion was first accomplished, what
primitive man looked like a."d how he
lived—these are all subjects upon
which there is much theory, but as yet
very little fact.
Leaving about the first of next Feb
ruary, headquarters for the expedition
will be established in Peking. 'The
first year will be devoted to studies
in paleontology and zoology in China;
the second year the work will be car
ried into Mongolia and a geologist will
be added to the fleld staff; the third,
fourth and fifth years archeologists
and anthropologists will be sent out
which with the zoologists and pale
ontologists will carry on work in vari
ous part of Asia.
The importance of this region long
has been recognized, but no system
atic study on a large scale ever has
been attempted, and there is no sim
flar area of the inhabited surface of
the earth about which so little is
known. Whether or not human re
mains are found It will yield rich col
lections in all branches of science.
The material will be exhibited in the
proposed Hall of Aslatic Life In the
American Museum of Natural History,
which it 18 hoped the city will add to
the Museum buiidings in the near fu
ture. At the present time if one
wishes seriously to study Asiatic zo
ology one must go to the British Mu
seum of London, It is hoped that this
expedition will bring to New York the
greatest natural history collections
which the world has ever seen and
will make New York the center of
Asiatic scientific activity.
One of the reasons why so little is
known of the fossils of China and
interior Asia Is that material of this
sort is of considerable value to the
Chinese. Fossils are supposed to have
wonderful medlcinal qualities. They
are known as “dragon’s bones” and
whenever a fossil yielding locality has
been found, it is carefully concealed.
Nevertheless during the last three
years Dr. J. G. Andersson, Mining Ad
viser to the Chinese Republic, has
been carrying on investigations on be
half of Swedish institutions. and has
made some remarkable discoveries. Dr.
Andersson is practically the first scl
entist who has ever collected fossils
personally in China.
We know almost as little about some
of the living natives of Asia as about
the fossil history of the country. Long
before the Chinese arrived, China was
inhabited by aboriginal tribes, which
were pushed south and west just
as the Indians were driven westward
by the white men when they ad
vanced across the American continent,
The remnants of nearly thirty of
these ancient tribes, such as the Lolos,
Mosos, Lisos and others, are rapidly
disappearing and yet almost nothing
is known of their origin, life or cus
toms. /
Keep Chinese Out.
Although many of the aborigines
were scattered among the mountains
of Yunnan and Kweichow and along
the Tibetan frontier, the Lolos still
maintain an independent territory in
Szechuan, one of the richest and most
populous provinces of China. No Chi
nese is permitted to cross the invisible
lines of their “kingdom” without the
probability / of incurring a violent
death. Continual raids are caxfled on
back and forth along the border, Per
haps the Chinese will capture a score
or more of Lolos who hava2 ventured
to glimpse the world beyond their wild
hills and valleys. In retaliation, a few
nights later, the Lolos will burn a
whole Chinese village, kill all the men
and carry the wémen linto slavery.
Thus the Lolos have earned a reputa
tion as barbaric savages. And yet a
French explorer who crossed their
territory, properly “chaperoned,” re
ports them to be a charming people, of
hospitable temper and high mentality.
He is one of the few sclentists who
have penetrated the land of the Lolos.
and live to tell the tale. Mr. Andrews,
who has hunted with Lolos in Yunnan,
found them independent, to be sure,
but delightful in their native courtesy
and simplieity.
He says: “It is impossible not to be
interested in this strange people. They
are totally unlike 'the Chinese, for
they are tall and slender, with long
faces and patriclan noses, and they
show every indication of Caucasian
blood. If they have it, where did it
come from? This is one of the ques
tions that should be answered before
the Lolos disappear, as the other tribes
as rapidly doing.”
There are many reasons why Cen
tral Asia has remained sclentifically
unexplored for so long a time. It is
so remote and difficult of access that
the cost of conducting work on a
large scale is enormous. Moreover,
the country and its Inhabitants pre
sent unusual obstacles to scientific re
search. Not only are there vast in
tersecting mountain chains, waterless
deserts and treeless plains, but In
many parts the climate 18 too cold for
effective work in winter. In some
places the natives are exceedingly
suspicious of foreigners; religious su
perstitions greatly' handicap research
and make it decidedly dangerous.
Chinese Superstitious.
The Chinese have many supersti
tions regarding the grotnd., The feng
shui, the spirits ¢f the earth, wind
and water, must always be favorable
before a burial takes place, and it is
exceedingly unlucky to disturb the
ground In the region of a cemetery.
Though our_ paleontologists are cer

ably overcome them by tact and a

tion. Those in charge of railroads and
other commercial projects that have
Involved digging in China have always
been able to compromise with pro
testing villagers and they have found
even within the past ten years a very
great change In attitude. In Tibet
conditions are even more difficult. All
the gold in the country belongs to the
Lama church and the natives can con
celve of only two reasons why for
elgners should come to thelr country—
either as gold-seekers or as mission
aries,
Obtaining the animals for the groups
in the Hall of Aslatic Life will fur
nish excitement enough for the most
blase sportsmen. In a corner of the
Gobl desert are a few herds of the
only living wild horses, Moreover,
there are, in the Gobl, wild camels and
wild asses, as well as antelopes that
can run sixty miles an hour. The
horses, asses and antelopes can be
rup down in motor cars, lassoed by
the Mongol cowboys, and some of the
specimens brought back alive to the
New York Zoological Park. Not far
from this particular part of the desert,
mountains tower to a height 8¢ fifteen
thousand feet, where there are big
horn sheep and ibex that have never
heard the crack of a high-power rifle,
On the 'Tibetan steppes are enormous
yak, snow leopards, glant pandas and
beautiful golden monkeys with blue,
upturned noses; some of these species
are among the rarest and least known
animals of the world. In China is
the takin, a creature with a veritable
“golden fleece,” a strange oxlike ani
mal that roams the highest mountain
valleys and that actually represents
an interniediate stage between the an
telope and the goat. In the forests of
Manchuria is the long-haired tiger of
the Amur River; a tiger larger and
finer than the royal Bengal of Indian
fame, which has furnished sport for
kings and emperors; a tiger living in
caves amid forests drifted deep with
SDOW.,
The scientific results of the third
Aslatic expedition will be embodied
In a series of volumes that should be,
for many years to come, the stand
ard work on ‘the natural history of
Central and Eastern Asia, and also in
popular books written in non-technical
language,
Would Heip China,
There 18 a very real desire on the
part of the sponsors for the expedi
tion to make it a factor in the devef
opment of the educational life of the
Chinese Republie.’ China hes no insti
tutions wherein ratural history objects
can be studied and exhibited by mod
ern methods and where the*scientific
work of her own people can be en
couraged and directed. It was there
fore decided to Invite the Chinese
government to co-operate with the ex
pedition in ecarrying on its work In
the Orient. China will be invited to
delegate to the expedition certain
men who have had already prelimi
nary instruction in various branches
of science; under the best specialists
in the world, these men, while In the
field, will receive training in modern
methods of scientific exploration and
study.
When the expedition has been com
pleted, its sponsors will agree to de
posit in Peking a duplicate set of the
collections, which will form the basis
of the Chln‘a Museum of Natural
History., The proposed Institution wiil
then have a valuable nucleus of spec
imens for exhibitlon and study and
a staff of expert Chinese to carry on
the work. It will remain for the gov
ernment to set aside a suitable build
ing where the collections can be
housed.
The third Asjatic expedition, with
its rich possibilities for making fm
portant discoveries in the departments
of paleontology, archeology, zoology,
anthropology and geography, Is des
tined to Increasc the prestige of the
United States in the world of science.
The American scientists who will pro
mote the advancement of Chinese sci
ence will co-operate with the Chinese
in an entirely new fleld. Americans,
with far-seeing Idealism will welcome
an alllance of this kind, tending to
cement the friendly relations that al
ready exist between the two great re
publice of the East and the West.
They will wish to Insure the possi
bility of making the thirfl Asiatic ex
pedition the greatest expedition ever

MUNICIPAL CARE OF TREES
S
As Much a Function of Civic Con.
trol as Any Modern Necessity,
A Says a Writer,
Simple and practical information
with which the ideal of “the city beau
tiful” may be brought nearer realize
tion is contained in a bulletin, “Street
Trees,” prepared by a horticulturist
of the United States Department of
Agriculture, With very few excep
tions, the bulletin points out, the tree
growth of the streets of the average
American town or city Is ragged and
unkempt,
That of a suburb or small village is
not much better unless it has been un
der adequate municipal control and
the plantings of a given street have
been confined to a single 'kind of
tree, Those modern necessities, the
telephone, telegraph, electric light and
trolley car, each have shared in the
mutilation and destruction of good
trees, 'Too few municipalities realize,
however, that these modern facilities
can be provided without impairing the
beanty of shade trees, says the writer,
One means of preventing injury is
more general use of alleys for publie
utility wires. Faulty pruning has also
caused much deformity.
Providing shade on city streets is as
much a municipal function as provid
ing lights on sidewalks, says the pub
lication, and therefore should be un
dertaken by public officials, Negative
control by requiring permits for plent
ing, pruning and removal Is a little
better than no control., Probably the
most satisfactory supervision is
through an unpald commission of three
or five members—men who should be
appointed to long terms, since it takes
two or three years for a commissioner
to realize the needs and scope of the
work, according to the bulletin,
Even a good board charged with the
cere of street trees can accomplish
little without liberal funds. These
may be provided by appropriation from
the general tax fund or direct assess
ment against property owners, collect
ible with their taxes. In any event,
the minimum appropriation provided
should be sufficient to carry on prop
erly the work already begun.

study the question, in approved fash
fon, but she is planning to build 500
houses for sale or rent, and to give
loans up to 50 per cent to those who
wish to build. Her schieme Is re
gtricted to prospective purchasers who
have been bona fide residents of the
city for the last two years.
It is apparent that Toronto is not
satisfied with the handling of the prob
lem by private interests, and her dis
satisfaction 18 echoed practically all
over the world, Profiteering landlords
have waxed rich, during the housing
shortage, at the expense of the rent
payer. To allow them to continue to |
do so would be to encourage injustice,
Toronto has taken note of this condi
tion and intends to put a check upon
it. In her efforts she will be watched
by other municipalities, who may now
look to her for a way ont of one of
their most perplexing tangles, |

Plant Trees in Fall. \ 1
Fall planting of trees and shrubs
is usuaily moie successful than spring
planting. The question is debatable
in some localities, but in many fall is
the best time,
In the fall we have a longer period
of favorable weather, the sap or life
of the plant has stopped flowing and
has become dormant for the season,
while in the spring the sap is just be
ginning to flow and the plant is start
ing its growth for tHe geason, and |
transplanting will at this time disturb
the roots and growth, and materially |
retard the successful development of
the plant. |
gall planting permits the tree or
shrub to firmly establish itself, so that
the April showers and early spring
sun can begin to draw the sap up from
the roots, and the minute fibrous root
hairs having close contact with the
sofl can immediately take in moisture
from the soil. It is this circulation
of moisture thet means the successful
development of the plant.
Towr\t Hospitality,
Hospitality has a broader meaning
than that which the individual home
delights to show the friend or visitor.
A community can practice it in like
manner and be known as a town where
real kindness and consideration are
shown visitors, strangers and newcom
ers, It takes such little trouble to
make those who come to us feel that
they are welcome, -- Morgantown
