Tha Tarlad Selaucta Wlilah Aid tha Sto daot Who Kiamlnas Tliara T)ir At Oloslaa That Unit Ila Btndlad and Thalr Vrlnclplas Appllad taTttlnga DUeoTarad. Man leaves behind him when ho dies his bones, his tools and bis monuments, end theto aro tho things from which have boon derived all the itonis of our knowletlgo ot him and his progress up to tbe tlmo when ho learned to writo. And oven In tbe htstorlo ago tbo story would bo much less completo but for his Inscriptions, bis art and his relics. Bones aro ot tho greatest importatioo, for oftentimes man has loft no other tokens ot his oxlstenca behind him. Tbo first study, therefore, to tho archmolo gist is that of tbo compnrntlvo anatomy ot tbo human race. It is ncocstary to distinguish human bones from thoso of animals, to study racial characters and to dotormlna tbo sax. Skulls must be studied with the greatest mlnntenoss, for in them Ho somo of tho most Impor tant evidences of origin and progress. It is deslrablo nlso to study tha animals, for tbe bones ot men aro often found intermingled with those of tbo animals that ho had slain or that have conquered blm, and In tbe casts whoro tbo animal is one now extinct n guess at the an tlauity of man's relics may bo mode. Tbe toots which served in tho rude arts ot early man were first of stone, roughly fashioned to tbo needs ot the work, and later ot metal, Mineralogy is tbereforo an important study to tbo orchtccloglst. Tbe stone relics furnish n rough indos to tho amount of clvlllsa tlont they ludicato in a crude way tbo extent of intercommunication they show how new ideas oamo to tho races j they serve In a manner to distinguish between different grades .of antiquity, and In many ways they aro important. The mineralogist who finds copper nog. gets in the graves ot North Carolina prehistoric- Indiana knows that these men had somo manner of eommunlcA. tlon with tbo great lakes. A knowledge ot toology Is requisite too. Tbo pre en co ot tho horseshoe crab In legends and traditions of tbe tribes ol our arid west conld have been guessed at only by ono with nouto perception. and tho finding ot ono of tho sholls na a fetich of ono of tho tribes was a bright exploit It wns ovldcnt that tblsrollo hml maitnltn Hnnrttnv f rnm tin ml to band over 8,000 or 0,000 miles of country at A time when It Was exceedingly wild.
