His biog- rapher, Samuel Crowther tells about it. Patterson's health broke down from over-work and strain when he was 60. He had always been a determined fighter, always gone after things hammer-and-tongs. That’s how he went after new health. Patterson was an admirer of Cornaro, the Italian, who believed that most people dig their graves with their teeth, and who fasted scientifically, living to well over 100 years. So Patterson started by fasting 37 days, taking only a few sips of water a day. The fast made him feel so much better that he went on a scientific vegetarian diet, chiefly baked potatoes and toasted crusts Full of enthusiasm, Patterson went to London and hired the strong man, Sandow, to train him. For months Sandow worked with Patterson as if training a prizefighter. He made him ride 25, miles a day on horse- back. Most of his other time was strenuously used in the| gymnasium. A special trainer rubbed him down numerous times each day. At the end of a year Patterson returned to his Dayton| business “a new man.’’ He employed a staff of doctors to watch him. They hovered nearby constantly — weighing , fulfill THE BOY SCOUTS Announcement was made in The Forum this week that the Fargo ibe ‘out Council is trying to find and means for secuging addi- al funds ito cover the deficit in operating expenses for 1923 and to insure the expenses for 1924. Everyone recognizes the con- structive work of the Boy Scout organization. There is no longer any argument concerning its fectiveness in being of real service to the boys of a community and to the community itself. It is ful- filling a feal mission with the younger generation in developing them into the men of tomorrow. Such work should sgt be hamp- ered by the lack, of necessary funds to carry on. hile it is di- rectly building the boy, it is also directly building citizenship. The man who believes in good citizen- ship desires that the boys of today have greater opportunities than he had, to be properly equipped to the obligations of citizen- ship. The Boy Scout movement is one of the agencies in our American life which is thus equipping the future manhood of the Nation. It is deserving of both moral and financial support.—Fargo Forum. him, testing his blood pressure, listening to his heart, chart-| ing’ his temperature. Food for his meals was weighed on delicate scales. Patterson took five baths and rubdowns a day, a special doctor watching the temperature of his bath. Every 30 min- : ae valet brought him a glass of hot distilled water. le rose at 4 every morning, took a horseback ride, had and breakfast. Then to work for an hour, next a bath, | and rubdown and into bed for an hour in a special room at his factory. This program was repeated through the day. The result? Well, Patterson lived 18 years after his breakdown at 60, and was vigorous and happy to the end. | terson’s experience demonstrates that man can reach ost anv goal if he is willing to work hard enough and devote sufficient time to the quest. Many will wonder if his 18 years of good health was, worth the price he paid for it, financially and in time ex- pended. Was the game worth the candle? It certainly was, for he enjoyed the whole process. He was a happy slave. All of us are slaves to some one or some system, job or hobby. As long as we enjoy it, why not? WHEN $1 LOOKED BIG AS A HOUSE Unskilled labor worked for the equivalent of 14 cents 2 day in Europe in the year 1520. Times were considered very prospefous when this wage rose to 22 cents a day in 1600. | Improvement came very slowly. About 35 years ago Carroll Wright, chief of the United States Bureau of Statistics, conducted an extensive investi- gation of the past and found that between 1770 and 1800 the average American blacksmith worked for 71 cents a day, laborers 28 cents and carpenters 61 cents. Even as late as 1875 the blacksmith got only $2.31 a day, unskilled labor $1.50 and carpenters $2.46 a day. Many lines of work now pay as much an hour as was paid for a full day’s work a half century ago. The cost of living was not as low as most of us imagine, back yonder in “the good old days” when a dollar looked as big as a house. Take wheat, which is a fairly accurate measure or gauge of general prices. Wheat in 1816 sold for $1.75 a bushel here in Ameri The price dropped to 99 cents in 1845, bounded to $2.85 in 1867, slumped to 58 cents in 1894. Cost of Ifving in the old days, fluctuated decidedly, for prices have always traveled in 50-year cycles, reaching about the same high peaks every half century. One generation has low prices. The next generation has high prices, and the old-timers lean on their canes and discuss the low cost of living of long ago. Their parents, still another generation back, knew only high prices. = —— | Wages in the old days were not very elastic. They were adjusted for a period of low prices, and failed to keep pace with the cost of living when it climbed high. So the man born in an old-time period of high prices was decidedly out of luck. Our generation appears to be the first in history in which wages have become elastic enough to keep in sight of sky- rocketing cost of living. Cost of living still tends to climb faster than average incomes, but the solution is much im- proved compared with former generations. SINGERS Sing, brothers, sing. The Associated Glee Clubs afar a “systematic attempt to revive the interest of men in choral singing.” More power to them. Nothing buries axes and welds people together like a singing match. Patriotism, too, is: at ‘its best when the mob can burst ‘into song. Trouble is; so few songs are worth-while. Singing usually is an emotional debauch. On the other hand, that’s pleasan- | ter than setting to words and music such worthwhile subjects , as the Einstein Theory, Reparations and Fourth Dimension. | If this were 1840, the whole country would be singing parodies about ‘Teapot Dome.

ADVENTURE OF THE TWINS BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON “Do climb up and see what is the matter with the town clock,” begged \ Mister Fuzz Wuzz of Doofunny Land. “What's wrong with it?” asked Nancy, ‘I don’t the know, but cuckoo ‘hasn’t been out for four hours and nobody knowsgthe time. Mrs. Cut- Out said she didn’t have the bre.k- fast dishes done when her husband! came home for lunch.” “Come on, Nancy, we'll borrow the ladder from the Humpty Dumpty Cir- cus clown,” said Nick. So they got the ladder and up they went and peeped inside the cuckoo + | clock. “Where are you, Aren't you at home?” “Yes,” answered the cuckoo from “But I'm mad.” “What are you mad about?” asked Nancy. ' “Well, I'll tell you,” said the cuckoo. “For. years and year's I've had it all my own way and I've work- ed faithfully. But what happens? Instead of getting my reward, they put an imposter in my place to mock me. Every time I go out and cail the hour, he jumps. out of a little door, too, and I know he's making fun of me.” “You must be crazy,” said Nick. “There isn’t another bird anywhere near. There isn't another, bird in Doofunny Land except the cut-out parrot.” “Is it the parrot?” asked Nancy. “Parrots aren’t any too polite “and do mock people sometimes.” “No, it isn't the parrot!” declared the cuckoo. ten me mixed up a lot of times by her cackling, but she is a goodhearted soul. No, I'll tell you who it is, It’s the dog that lives in that dog-house over there across the street.” “Why, that’s Radio Rex,” laughed Nancy. “He wouldn't hurt a flea—I mean he wouldn't hurt anything else but a flea, and I’m sure he wouldn't make fun of you.” “Wouldn't he though!” exclaimed the cuckoo, “I'll just show you,’ With that she came out of her dark corner and as it was exactly 5 o'clock, she called out loudly: “Cuckoo! Cuckoo! Cuckoo! Cuckoo! Cuckoo.” Scarcely had’ her voice died away than out of his house sprang Radio Rex so suddenly that he nearly fell over. “There! Didn’t I tell you?” de- manded the cuckoo. “He's had a house built almost exactly the shape of my clock and had the door made the same and everything: You can't tell me he isn’t mocking me!” “But he can’t help it,” said Nick. “He is made that way. He can't go back into his house alone, He has to wait until someone puts, him there, “And when anybody calls him he has td pop out whether he wants to or not.

He tore the message into strips and sat down to read his newspa- pers; he had merely glanced at the headlines and his column.
