I sHsstatasi I slsl Man of Science Sees Mother Earth as Many Hundred Millions of Yc'arc O'd. The geologist supposes that It took from sixty to three htudrcd millions of years for tho earth's crust to as sume Its present appearance, and cal culates that from the time when the Qrst rudimentary form of life appeared thero havo been 12 important geologic periods of tho advancement of life, tho last of them being the Quarter nary or Post-Tertiary, when mankind appeared. Tho llrst part of this Post Tertiary age or period when man exist ed is called tho Pleistocene. At that time beds of drift gravel were deposited In which have been found Hint hatchets nnd other Implements, apparently made by men. Primitive man Is also known as Paleolithic, and the age In which lie lived Is often called tho Old Stone ngo. Somp authorities, however, be lieve that primitive man existed be fore Paleolithic man, but left no traces of his existence. He probably gained his food through hunting, wnnderlng along the river valleys and then later took to cave dwelling, ltude drawings havo been found In caves, tho work of tho "cavtf man."

King George recently applied to parliament for permission to sell cer tain portions of his entailed duchy of Lancnster estates. The total rent roll of these valuable properties Is only about $275,000. It ought to be a very great deal more, but for the fact that previous sovereigns were in the habit of granting what were In effect per petual leases at n nominal rent, plus a substantial cash payment by the original lessee. It is for this reason thnt the present king has to be con tent with a nosegay of roses as rental for that portion of the duchy estates on'Whlch stands St. Olavo's Grammar school, near Tower bridge; whereas what the luwyers term its "economic rent" has been calculated at about $25,000. Similarly, a tablecloth, a fur cont, a horse and halter, a currycomb, a nlghcap, a pair of scarlet ItoBe, a falcon, a cross-bow and n pair of tongs figure every year in the duchy nccounts. Each article represents the "rent" paid, or supposed to bo paid, for some mnnor, farm or plcco o land. Brooklyn Eagle. Why Briand Stammered.
