A bracelet of gleaming jewels adorned his foreleg. Caligula’s crazy fancies did not stop at these extravagances. He set aside a splendidly appointed house for the horse and detailed a retinue of slaves to care for him. In the name of Incitatus he invited prominent Romans to the house, where they supped with the horse as their host. Mercifully, the Emperor did not require them to eat oats or hay. Caligula’s madness mounted. He made Incitatus & member of the College of Priests. He was more solicitous of the animal than if he had been human. On the nights before the days when the ruler showed his imperial figure at the | circus, he took great pains that the horse should be fully rested and fresh. Soldiers paced through the streets adjoining the domicile of Incitatus, en- Joining silence upon every one. To what extent Caligula might have carried his folly no one can imagine. His final great absurdity was to pro- pose that the steed be elevated to the consulship. But he was never able to carry out the project: On January 24, of n:lem 3;:;1' 41, a tribune of mtshe praetorian col put an end to crazy deeds by_strangling him. It would be interesting to know how Incitatus regarded the honors accorded him. Very likely, he would have preferred an ordinary stable to his marble palace.

WARD President of Russell Burdsall & Ward Bolt and Nut Company Director of the First National Bank of Portchester “Patient research—that factor has charac- terized nearly every great scientific achievement, and the more public spirited the enterprise the more careful it is to insure successful results. Anyone whoreads about your modern use of the Ultra Violet Ray in the ‘Toasting’ of the LUCKY STRIKE tobaccos cannot fail to recognize the long patient research and experiment that must have preceded it. I regard your development as an accomplishment wrought in the finest traditions.” Consistent with its policy of laying the facts before the public; The American Tobacco Company has invited Mr. William L. Ward to review the reports of the distinguished men who have witnessed LUCKY STRIKE’S famous Toasting Process. The statement of Mr. Ward appears on this page. LUCKY STRIKE —the finest cigarette you ever smoked, made of the finest tobaccos —the Cream of the Crop -I!IE—”L’S_ TOASTED.” Everyone knows that heat purifies and so TOASTING removes harmful irritants that cause throat irritation and coughing. No wonder 20,679 physicians have stated LUCKIES to be less irritating! Everyone knows that sunshine mellows — that's why TOASTING includes the use of the Ultra Violet Ray. send your name and address for free sample to: Postum Company, Inc., Battle Creek, Mich. © 1930, The American Tobacco Co., Manufacturers “It's toasted” Your Throat Proteefion—cgcinst irrltcflon—cgclnst cough TUNE IN—The Lucky Strike Dance Orchestra, every Saturday and Thursday evening over N.B.C. networks, | N
