I worc ibis ring, silven and rather onnate, for a peniod, but aI- ways consciously and wiib misgiv- ings: it was ioo sbowy, I ihougbt. Sa I quit.wearing it. and have neyer worn anoiher.

I beard recenîly of a f arily in the IUnited States wbo bad buili a 17. room bouse in the vicinity of New York. Tbe man ai the bead of the '~family had been induced by real estate promoters ta build a bouse, on îi wo an mare acres of ground, in a district declared ta ha very choice fnom the invesiment point of view. But someîbing bhappened. and ibis bouse 15 today the only bouse in the particulon district wbicb the real estote sellers said would become a well-settled communuîy. Today the sales value of ibis property is but a fraction of ils original cosi. For vears ibis family - faiber, moiben and two sons - lived in ibis buge bouse. The family bad less thon $100000. and a good deol of ibis monev bod been sunk in tbe Pur- cbased properîy and in tbe bouse buili on it. The faiben had no oc- cupation. for be bad retired. Bath he and bis wif c for years and yeana did the bousekeeping tbemselves, without bired belp. Imagine _two ageing people living in a 17-room bouse without servants, and witb rarcly any visitons - living in a ne- mate and neighborless region I Not long aga the faiber died. I cannot say wbat is the intention of bis widow. but anc can guesa ibat the bouse wiIl be lefi, perbapa ta go empty for Years and years, and if and wben sold. il will be sold at a give-away price. JC K Ricb men incline ta build big bouses - fan langer thon the fam- ily's own requirements. Building and living in a big bouse - bigger thon is required - is of the same sort of folly as owning a mammotb diamond wbîcb con seldomn be worn or exposed ta the view of guesta and f iends. and -wbose Possession mxust always ha a cause of fean.

But they were the progenitor of ail the great mammals we sec ir the reconstructions andý paintings witlîin our best museums. After eonw of agçs. certain of those animal groups evolved to grfeat size anc grew armor on their backs to pro- tect them from attack by other pre- td.atory monsters that lurkcd about the torrid swamps and shallow iyer. miouths of the time. "Some of these great wbale-like creatures stalked bulkily about or tremnendous. splay-footed legs. Grad- uallv, however, some of the whale- like creatures transformed into coiniete water-dwellers. As sucli creatures took more and more to the aditatic life, the acquisition of in- creased speed became of prime im- Portance. So, by dimiànishing their over-cumbersome weight-the armor on their stiffened backs and bv the lessenied use of their protruding legs -thev were enabled to survive many of thie dangers which thrcatened to ov'rwhelm them. In the few thousand years that mnl has seen. worshipped or hunted whales. there seems to be no record of their ever havingz legs that could be called such. Howcver, science inforins us that ail animal life is apt to revcrt to the primitive form whicli, more or less once typified its ancestral development.
