Quality of brain matter, not quantity, is what Hongkong, Fr. s.s., 800, A. Suzzoni, 16th Sept., Silesia Singapore.S., W. & Co Sept. 17
is needed, and I am certain the modern woman
is developing the former. The average man's hand measures from 22 10 zrž inches, the aver age woman's from 21 10 314, but the average of 22 inches is increasing among women."
The opinion of mere man, upon the asser tion that the modern woman takes more thought and deliberation on the subject of marriage and is less likely to be carried away. by sentimentality than in past years, is very characteristic of the egotism of the sex in gen- oral in regard to matters matrimonial and the potency of their own power of fascination.
The modern girl is just the same as was her mother or her grandmother. When the right man comes she will love him and marry him, whether he be rich or poor, waithy or unworthy, and no amount of frontal development will ever change woman's nature or make her otherthan she came from the hands of her Creator. Her
head may be larger; she is larger every way: mentally, morally and physically, and God bless her.
In art as in everything else there is a variety of opinions, says another writer even in the
glorious period of Greek art when sculpture had reached a position greater than ever since there were differences of opinion.. Polykleitas, of Argos, found it to his liking to establish canons of measurement in the human figure that differed somewhat from Phidias. The Argos, sculptor gave twice the length of the face, from the chin to the roots of the hair on the forehead, as one-half the distance from the bottom of the foot to the knee cap. Phidias undoubtedly held to the canon of eight heads as the most beautiful and imposing of all in human structure.
All well-trained artists seem to prefer the eight head standard of measurement, although some very beautiful modern statues have been.
made where this rule has been disregarded. In modern realistic work this may be noticed' where there is a desire and intention to portray the life of to-day.
It must be remembered that it is not at all certain that the Greek men and women were 'all built on the eight head ideal. In the Greek and Roman portrait statues one does not find the heads out of the ordinary as to size, there
fore we must conclude that the small head was a cannun of beauty invented by the artist and held to because of the fancied loveliness of the ideal.
It may be true that the Latin races have smaller heads than the Anglo-Saxon or North.
ern races, and that their brains are consequent
ly foer and more irritable. The slower men- tality of the Northerners may necessitate a coarser fibre and a larger skull, or brain cavity. We must not forget that the simple way of dressing the hair at the time the great Greek statues were made would of itself make a differ- ence in the appearance of the head, making it appear smaller. We to-day fuss up the femi- nine hair until it becomes a horrid spectacle, immodest and absurd. No one may judge the actual size of a woman's head under these try. ing conditions.
It is not a question whether there is anything in the head of a marble statue; it is rather whether that head fits in exact proportion the beauty of the rest of the figure.
ANCIENT RUIN IN NEW MEXICO.
J
Santa Fe (N. M ), August 9.-The rain of a communal building, containing 1500 Tous and never before visited by white men or map. ped, has been discovered thirty miles west of Santa Fe and a half mile south of the famous. Stone Lions of Cocchita. By
The discovery was made by A. R. Chaycraft of Santa Fe, who was out with Edgar L. Hewitt of the ethnological bureau taking photographs. of the thousands of cliff and cave dwellings to be found west of this city on the proposed Pa. parito cliff-dwellers' reserve.
The ruins are perched on a high mesa, which is the ancient burial ground. Is an abandon ed reservoir near the building a cedar over five feet in diameter was found growing. Proles sor Hewitt will begin the work of excavation next week. The ruins are the largest of the 20,000 communal and dwellings in the reserve.

The grave of General Sir Hector Macdonald in the Dean Cemetery, Edinburgh, has hitherto been unmarked. A monument, however, has now been erected by public, subscriptions. It takes the form of an obelisk, supported by can- non balls at each corner, In front of the base stands a pedestal with a bronze bust, which shows Sir lector in the uniform of an aid-de- camp to the King, with a greatcoat thrown open displaying his many orders and medals, British and Egyptian,

MILLIONAIRE'S WILL
Mrs. William Zeigler has commenced an action in New York with the object of upsetting the will of her, husband, who accumulated a vast fortune as the inventor of baking powder, and spent large sums recently in Arctic explo- ration. The widow is not contented at receiving only £10,000 per annum and two palatial re sidences, and seeks a share of the £6,000,000 left by the baking powder king to a fifteen- years-old boy, whom he adopted as his son. She says that her husband was insane at the time of making his will, or he would have left bar a widow's share of his millions instead of a mere pittance of £10,000 per annum. ̈ ̧
