THE ANCESTRY OF THE CAT..
The present state of knowledge on the vered question of the origin of the dọ mestic cat is the summarized in an article untitled Concerning the Cat, in her Animal Friends, fam
It is impassible to trace the origin oi the domestic cat with certainty to any exbine specias or variety of the wiki caf Indeed, the tine at which the est wits forms domasticated and intrexiuced to hunan society is purely a matter of conjecture. Professor Shuler expresses the opinion that this domusicution of the ent out have horn me tater. Chris that of the des while other naturalists give reasons for be eving to the contries. We.arolvos in eline to agree with Professor Shader, and for this reason: that dogs were probably | first, domesticated in order to assist in hunting, and therefore, poulably, in what is called the huming age of human society i where the mat has is where been enor billy used as a hunting animal. The dog is casuntinlly gregarious; he loves to haut in packs, and when introduced to as family he regards the fatty as
his and hunts accordingly, so that he is asily made survicville by the lumina hunter. The cat, on the contrary, is unę noin; it lives alone, hunts alone, and fesie alone, so that it could not be expinetel the easily Lined to hunt vither with men or for Uxin. In Eroty they men ber of the cat family al is known to have. been tained to hunt is the choctal, the an azeiont Hyphic painting, which may Ix seen in the British Museum, represents a cat which is ngrently assisting . humber to catch birds. This, however, even if the picture is to be taken sa evidenco gi a fuct, represents a very rare exception to universal rule, and therefore would not justify the inference that men the hand- ing age adopted eats to aid there in the

chare.
There is another reason for thinking that the cat must have been adopted by after the hunting age; anely, the eat's wonderful attachment to locality. Animale lio the wolf, with which the arg x most closely allied, follow their proy over vast tracts of country and seem to lic ektirely destitate of local attachment. The wild-cat, on the contrary, settles down in a particular spot and waits for its prey to When removed from its nesustoDY; come. ed habitat it seems to lose its skill, anul therefore would bo useless to men in a hunting age, because in that age men sel dom had fixed habitations, but rosed Intensd wherever game, was to be found. Of course, mach of this is conjecture. Whether the cat or lie dog was first adopted
by men can not now be curtainly known,

"Disfigured For Life"
Is the despairing cry of thousands
afflicted, with
Unsightly skin diseases.
Tho you realize what this disfiguration
means to sensitive souls
It means isolation, seclusion,
It is a day to social and business success. Do you wonder that despair seizes upon
these sufferers when Doctors fail,
Standard remedies fail,
And nostrums prove worse than useless? Skin diseases are most obstinate to cure
or even relieve.
It is easy to claim to cure them, but quite another thing to do so. CUTICURA REMEDIES:
