AN EXTINCT ANIMAL
3Sf
Tho Saber Toothed Tiger Was a For
midable Creature
The most remarkable of all the ex
tinct feline animals are those known
to naturalists as the saber toothed
cats or timers n group comprising the
greater part of all the fossil forms
They date back to the earliest times of
which we know anything about the
family In North America and reach
down to the time of man himself A
large and powerful species described
from the Indian Territory by Cope
lived contemporaneously with the
hairy mammoth as evidenced by the
commingling of their skeletons There
can be little or no question but that
the hairy mammoth was contempora
neous with man in North America
as well as in Europe Its geological
range Is from the close of the eocene
to the latter part of the pleistocene
The chief peculiarity of the animal
Is the extraordinary elongated canine
teeth The tail is of unusual length
and the legs are short The animal
measures about seven feet In length
aside from the tail The lower jaws
have a downward projection In front
due to a ilangelike widening of the
jawbones which doubtless served as a
protection to the teeth preventing their
injury or loss In some of the larger
forms from South America this flange
was not present while the canine
teeth were even more elongated than
Is tho case with this species attaining
a length of over six inches and pro
truding far below the jaws when
closed
A FAMOUS ROAD
Indias Tree Bordered Highway 1200
Miles In Length
The road I have in my mind Is in
India and stretches 1200 miles from
Lahore to Calcutta It is the famous
Grand Trunk road Let me explain its
nature though one cannot do so by
comparison for there is no road of Ave
miles in England that Is anything like
it It is level Indeed there is not
above a mile the whole distance where
even a lady need dismount to walk
The material with which it Is made is
called kunker and If you care to turn
that word into concrete you have an
idea of what it is like It is exceeding
ly hard and as smooth as a prepared
pavement There is no dust When I
first got on this road and enjoyed the
luxury of easy traveling I said This
is magnificent but in a little time I
suppose it will become gritty and un
even I went fO 100 miles 200 miles
500 GOO 700 miles and it was always j
the same with not even a small stone
to give a jog Nearly the whole of the
way is lined with a double row of ma
jestic trees
With two friends I rode across India
during the hottest time of the year in
April and May and was never serious
ly inconvenienced by the heat for at a
pace of fifteen miles an hour one could
create a draft Chambers Journal
Roadside Wit
He who matched wits with the au
thor of The Ancient Mariner had in
deed a lively task before him for Cole
ridge was never caught napping The
poet was so awkward a horseman that
his riding often attracted comment of
anything but a complimentary nature
One day he was riding along the turn
pike road In the county of Durham
when a wag who met him fastened
upon him as an excellent subject for
sport Consequently he drew rein and
said in an impertinent drawl
My graceful friend did you happen
to meet a tailor on the road
Im inclined to think I did said
Coleridge meditatively I was not
sure at the moment but lie said some
thing about my meeting a goose far
ther along the road
The -wag put spurs to his horse and
the poet jogged calmly on his way
Past Salaries of Actors
A number of autograph letters of
Edmund Kean supply some interesting
information about the salaries of actors
early in the nineteenth century One
relates to an offer by Mr Ellison offer
ing Kean 3 a week as acting man
ager of the new theater in Wych
street Later this rose to 23 a month
In 1S20 Kean was offered 12000 a
year to go to America In the prime
of his popularity he received 200 for
a week in Edinburgh and apparently
reached the highest point when Mr
Bunn wrote from the Theater Royal
Dublin on Feb 8 1S29 and offered
him 30 a night to play in Dublin and
Cork Liverpool Mercury
Home Influences
Each one of us is bound to make the
little circle in which lie lives better
and happier each one of us is bound
to see that out of that small circle the
widest good may flow each of us may
have fixed in his mind the thought
that out of a single household may
flow influences which shall stimulate
the whole commonwealth and the
whole civilized world Dean Stanley
