One of the very earliest human set tlements In Europe Is Ileche Corbon. ou the banks of the Loire, seven miles above Tours. Here limestone cliffs stretch for miles and are pigeonholed with caves, which are on different lev els and open on to terraces. When the re?t of the country was nothing but forest land Roche Corbon was a thriv ing settlement Inhabited by wild skin clad predecessors of the present cave dwellers. ? These terraces and caves were formed by the action of mighty rivers, and during the glacial period, 1 when the climate of that portion of France was very severe, man drove out the bears and hyenas and took ref uge in these natural shelters, which faced south, and so became human set tlements of a primitive sort. Near at hand were the rivers and great forests full of fish and game. ? I The river is still inclined to act in a dog in the manger manner, despite the heavy rains along the headwaters last Saturday and Sunday and later. The local stage at five o'clock Monday afternoon was eight feet two inches, at sev en o'clock this morning it was eight fe^t one inch, and at noon yesterday eight feet three inches. The river was rising slowly at Pittsburg aud Parker this morn ing, but stationary elsewhere. The postoffiee authorities have called the attention of posmasters throughout the country to a regu lation forbidding carriers to sell tickets for picnics on their routes, or to have any negotiations which are in effect, asking for sums of money, which it would not be pleasant for the recipient of the mail to refuse. The regulation is sweeping and comprehensive. Re ports have come in of late regard ing various enterprises of this i sort, which, it is assumed, had | been started because he law had been so little invoked of late. Lest this old world should lie come jaded and weary of itself, says the Philadelphia Press, we have each year 1he army of grad uates, eager, hopeful, enthusias tic, and with a zest for life which arouses even the pessimist to a fresh irfjterest in humanity and things. The cocksurencss of the average graduate and his tem erity in attacking problems so great that the wisest have lain | down under them often provoke a smile: yet we love him none the I less. We cannot do without him. ITe is an infusion of fresh blood into t lie world's veins. He quick ens our hope and our self-confi dence. and helps us look upon the whole vast scheme of things with a kindlier eye. We believe in him, even while we sigh over the rude disillusionments that await him and because of him we be lieve more heartily in ourselves. ii Locally j ji Penned I <r * Subscribe for the Daily Review, j ' 5'.''.' t7 ? v " " ' ' ' ? aammmmmmnanammmmmmmwwwmmwwmBMU MIIIIWIHIIIHIMIIIMIIIIIIIHIHIMMIWMIIIHMMIHIIIIIIII ????W j?S !?
