A prominent physician in Berlin, Germany, three y. ago, Dr. Karl Ritter, tired of the convene fions and artificiality of civilization, sought voluntary exile on Charles Island, a lonely little E*cn in the Galapagos group in the Pacific. With his only companion, Frau Dore Koerwin, a former patient, Dr, | Ritter set out to preve that man could live comfortably and happily without any of the adjuncts of medern civilization. Today, according to Vincent Astor, millionaire sportsman who wws the last to see the entifi | experiment is a success. Astor, cruising in Pacific ers in his nd found the modern Adam and Eve happy and o when Astor called at the island he broyzht packages of seeds for the German exiles. These seeds have come along splendidly and have added to the menu of the experimenters. Their diet is chiefly composed of bananas and vegetables and their only source of water is a tiny spring. True to their resolution to turn their backs upon civilization and all its works, Dr. Ritter and his compani have but one piece of machinery on the island—a wheelbarrow which doctor fashioned out of, als at hand.
