NOTEWORTHY SUGGESTi&N.
There has been a disposition .of late
on the part of several social autocrats
and dictators in the American metrop
olis to let down the bars and increase
the famous "400" to 1100 by way ot
meeting broader viewpoints and de
mands. Still the tendency to build
family trees and study the history of
the aristocracy is no less conspicuous
in exclusive circles, and the age ot the
houses of blue-blood cuts just as much
figure as ever.
A Dr. Edward Anthony Spitzka
makes some noteworthy suggestions to
the American Philosophical society on
this line. He has been going into the
matter from a scientific point of view,
and no doubt what he has to say may
be of value to certain circles who at
tach great importance to the matter of
tracing their ancestry from away bask.
Dr. Spitzka wants an expedition sent
' to Andeman and Nicobar Islands to
study the oldest families which he de
clares are the only survivors of the
pure ape stock froni which the human
race sprang.
This is an excellent idea. Being the
oldest these families should be entitled
to thehighestconsiderationasthe"real j
stuff' in the aristocracy. They are
the most blue-blooded of the entire
"bunch," and it is eminently proper
that they should continue to be select
and exclusive by pesisting;in occupy
ing remote islands where half-strainers,
and other spurious aspirants to dis
tinction in social prestige cannot easily
butt in or sneak in the back doorwhen
nobody is looking.
In these old original families the
rcial purity has been rigidly preserv
ed "There have been no international
matrimonial alliances, and they have
blue-blood and pedigrees to burn.
This being the case, no doubt some of
the Newport set who have made a rep
utation for congeniality with promi
nent members of the monkey family at
l
elaborate and fabulously expensive
dinner parties will heartily approve of
Dr. Spitzka's proposition to inquire
into the origin and family trees of the
Andamans and Nicobars. There ought
