AN OLD MAID’S
ESSAY ON MEN
Men are what women marry. They
have two feet, two hands and some
times two shirts; but never more
than one collar or one idea at a time.
Like Turkish cigarettes, men are
all made of the same material—hus
bands, bachelors, and widowers—the
only difference being that some are
little better disguised than others.
An eligible bachelor is a mass of
obstinacy entirely surrounded by sus
picion.
Husbands are of three varieties—
prizes, surprises and consolation priz
es.
Making a husband ont of a man is
one of the highest plastic arts known
to civilization. It requires science,
sculpture, common sense, faith, hope
and charity—especially charity.
It is a psychological marvel that a
soft, fluffy, tender, violet-scented,
sw-eet little thing like a woman should
enjoy kissing a big, awkward, stubby
chinned, tobacco-and-bay-rum scented
thing like a man.
If you flatter them, it frightens
them to death ,and if you don’t you
bore them to death. If you .permit a
man to make love to you, he gets tired
of you in the end; if you don't, he
gets tired of you in the beginning. If
you join in his gaities and approve of
his smoking, he swears you are driv
ing him to the devil, and if you don’t
approve of his smoking and urge him
to give up his gaities, he likeswise
vows you aie driving him to the devil.
If you wear gay colors, and rouge,
and a startling hat, he hesitates to
take you out; and if you wear a lit
" tie brown toque and a tailor-made, he
takes you out and stares all evening
at a woman in gay colors, rouge and
a startling hat.
If you are a clinging vine type, he
[ doubts whether you have a brain, and
if you are modern, advanced and inde
1 pendent woman, he doubts whether
you have a heart.
If you are silly he longs for a
_ bright mate. If you are popular with
I other men, he is jealous; and if you
(are not, he hesitates to marry a wall
flower.

STONE AXE FOUND
NEAR DAWSON CITY
DAWSON,—A find of unusual in
terest was made a week ago by Rod- ;
evick O’Connor and sons, Ted and
Harry, while prospecting on the Gla-1
cier trail, about thirty-two miles from ;
town. They were uncovering the ledge !
when Harry, the elder son, picked up j
a peculiarly shaped stone, which on I
examination proved to be a flint axe.
The blade is about five and a quarter
inches wide and measures four inches
from the head to the cutting edge. It
is nearly a semi-circle in shape, a
little more than half an inch in thick
ness at the top and narrowed down to I
a fairly sharp cutting edge on the j
blade.
The specimen is a fine example of
the handiwork of the craftsmen of the
early stone age, and the artisan who
shaped it must have been a master;
hand at his art. A portion of the tool
has been broken from the top, but j
still enough remains to indicate that ■
the blade was inserted in a cleft stick j
and bound in place by thongs.
The finding of this relic of past!
ages opens up a field for conjecture.!
It may be than an ancient race of j
men inhabited the Yukon during the
proglacial age, when the mammoth 1
and other now' extinct animals roam- !
ed the forests before the irresistible
flow of the glaciers swept from the 1
north, carrying all before them, de- '
stroying man and beast alike, divert- :
ing the course of great rivers and ‘
changing the contour of the country, j
Remains of the mammoth, giant buf- !
falo and other extinct animals are of- 1
ten found by miners in the placer
fields, but so far no human remains
have been unearthed.
So far as can be ascertained no
flint has been found in the Yukon, ex
cept at a point on the Porcupine river
and the flint axe foud by Mr. O’Con
nors and sons is the first flint axe
to be unearthed in the territory. Itj
is possible that the ancient tool found
its way to the Yukon through barter
with nomadic tribes to the south
among whom the use of stone arrows,
axes and hammers were common in
ages long gone by.
Traces of an ancient race have been
found recently on the Alaskan coast,
and are the subject of scientific ex
amination, but so far nothing of the
kind has been discovered in Yukon,
with the exception of that made by
Mr. O’Connor.
HERE’S A MENU FIT FOR
KING, SINCE HE ATE IT j
LONDON, June 25—“A luncheon
fit for a king,” is an often used
phrase, but few people are able to
state just what it is that kings feast
upon.
When King George and Queen Mary
visited the British Empire Exhibition
at Wembley, a reporter determined to
learn just what they had to eat. He
discovered that the luncheon “fit for
a king” was as follows:
Soles Colbert
Caneton a la Gelee d’Orange
Salade Russe
Asparagus
Fraise Romanoff
And when they brought the truly
stupendous wine list to the king he
ordered Scotch ale, the reporter dis
covered. Queen Mary drank mineral
water.
