This stature powder same proportionate manner. The world nee human stature, not only physically, but mentally and morally It be, in view of the authoritative announcement of Mr. Twain and the asse verations of this Japanese scientist, that this new powder is the very combination to win such a delectable result. Let us hope so. And Japan, taking into consideration every angle of the situation, is just now quite the best place to give it a fair and consistent trial for an altitude record. tinguished scientist, Mark » whether a fish diet would seriou consideration and would, but application Some operate successfully in the may Reports say there are more flies this season than usual, which comes of leaving the swatting se largely to Babe Ruth. Times Change LAUNDRY wagon driver inherits $50,000 in Trenton, N. J. He announces he'll keep on working. Which excites amazement, but shouldn't. The $50,000 at 4 per cent interest would bring the driver $2,000 a year. He couldn't do much with that, prices so high: Time was when $50,000 was a whale of a fortune and the house of the owner was pointed out with the buggy whip to visitors being driven around town. Those days are gone forever. Even a millionaire doesn’t excite much interest now, they're so numerous. A sport authority says “prize-fighters are very careful of thelr hands.” Otherwise, no doubt, they would find difficulty in operating their type- writers, Pitiless Publicity HE wages of sin are publicity, says Dean Lee of New York university’s school of journalism. “Pitiless publicity” unquestionably punishes the guilty —especially those who are powerful enough to keep out of the clutches of the law. But a scolding isn't as effec- tive as strap-oil in the case of a bad boy. More jail sen- tences are needed. The Chinese alone get full value from “pitiless pub- licity They make convicted profiteers and other social crooks parade in front of their homes and places of busi- ness, ringing a bell and carrying a banner advertising their crimes. An anthropologist reports that the human face is becoming longer, which shows what the 67-eent dollar has done. Old-A ge Pensions | NCLE SAM is paying pensions to over 500,000 war veterans or their dependents. One pensioner is being supported by every 2 ericans, The Gay will come when the pension roll will run into the millions. Old age pensions are just a matter of time. Incapacitated veterans of peacetime service to the nation, both in public. gnd private life, will eventually be rewarded the same as battle-scarred veterans. The certainty of a pension in old age would, some claim, induce many people to work less hard in their active years. But it'd also end a lot of dishonesty, especially petty cheating—outgrowth of fear that old age will be penni- less. An Eastern song writer has been sent to jail, but it wasn't justice, for he was not the yes-banana fellow. How About It? | HHENOMENAL memory of Naum Litowsky, a Lithu- anian, amazes eastern professors. Told the date of your birth, he can immediately give the day of the week your birthday occurs in any year, past or present. Call off 15 long numbers and he echoes you by reciting them back- wards. These are typical of many remarkable feats. How does he do it? By associating numbers with col- ors, he says. Higher scientists call this “confusion of the senses.” There are people who see certain colors when various musical notes are played. The eccentricities of the human brain are the greatest mystery. in this life. Cal says nothing and Charlie has little to say. We can see where this campaign is going to be a silence and fun act. Search for Wealth | ae search for wealth continues never-endingly and takes strange forms. Now men seeking riches are going deeper into the earth than ever before. The supply of natural gas is swiftly dwindling. So a hole two miles deep, in hopes of gas at a new low level, is being drilled near Terra Allta, W. Va. ° A wildcatting scheme oil well at Carnarvon, South Africa, has reached a depth of nearly a mile. Far away, in the San Juan Del Ray mine in Brazil, miners work 6,726 feet underground, We would be a race of Socrateses if we were a hun- dredth as industrious for knowledge as for riches. “Insanity “is a rich get that way, says Lord Sumner, of England, True.
