Finds Child After Three Years
SAVES MONEY
BY MARRYING
MAYOR GIVES
SOUND ADVICE
CHICAGO (AI) Marriage is
tin' best financial Investment u
niun can inako, concludes Patrick
J. Carr, treasurer of Cook county
(Chicago), from a statistical sur
vey In which averages wen; taken
from 700.001) returns. "In fact, a
man can hardly afford not to get
married, if statistics mean any
thing," Mr. Carr added.
The survey of this tax sltuatton
here, made willi a view of reach
ills' any scientific conclusions on
economy and money saving, shows
tliat t 24 years of ugo the aver
age husband has about five per
unt less property, money in bank
and taxabkt wealth than tho aver
age bachelor of the same age.
"But when both reach the u'
ot 28. tho husband will be three
per cent ahead and will continue
to distance the bachelor more each
year," said Mr. Carr. "The cost
of marriage puts him back In tin
first comparison.
"At 38, tho married man will
average, in proportion to numbers.
17 per cent more la.xahk) wealth j
ahead, oespno mo expenses ol
and at 4S he will be 20 per cent
larger homes,- children und hea
vier wardrobe and living costs.
The married, man seems to work
harder, save more and is more in
tensive in developing his business
ability. There is a greater per
centage of .shrinkage one year to
the next in (lie , taxable property
of a bachelor than a husband."

HKWAKD, Alaska (Al). A ca
ble of the army -signal corps,
renewal of which was completed
here recently by the transport
Tellwood, Unking Seattle and
Seward, Is 1,1! 12 miles long and
k weighs 17.028 tons.
The cost of renewing the cable,
which was established in 1 4
with a line from Seattle to Wit k i,
Alaska, was put at $ J iifi.no. Col
onel (Icorgo Clibb in charge of
re-laying tho cable, reported that
the deepest place found was 2.
413 fat bonis, southeast of Middle
ton Islnnd. 75 miles soith of the
northernmost point' of the Guif
of Alaska. Tho floor of the gulf,
he added, was a smooth as the
plains in the states. The line, was
laid at an average depth of 1,718
fathoms. The re-laying was be

HOW NATI'HK WOIIKS
The lady's slippers are really
wild orchids, a class of plants so
highly specialized to secure cross
fertilisation that over-speciullza-tion
has almost been their undoing.
The mechanism to secure cross
Iiollinat ion Is so complicated and
elaborate that self-pollination is
ulmost an Impossibility, says Na
ture Magazine, of Washing ou. Pol
' filiation is usually done ijy hungry
bees that gain entrance In their
iu:st for food through the gateway
way afforded by un opening in
the upper part of (he large in
flated lip. In the pink species tho
gateway closes behind the guest
who eats his flit from glands found
Inside. After the , feast, exit, Is
secured only t h rough a narrow
passage in which pollen tliat may
have been deposited on his back
by another flower is combed off
ly a sticky, brush-like stigma. On
the way out a new mass of pollen
is dusted on the bee's back, to be
carried to another blossom and
thus is cross pollination secured.

A ir Officials Predict
A Commercial Increase
WASHINGTON (Ity nu. Asso
ciated l'ress). Commercial avia
tion in the Cnited States will
forge ahead during the coming
year if plans of 'tho National Aer
onautic association can effect.lt.
Godfrey Lowell Cabot, president
or the organization, who has tak
en up the task of directing lis
activities from Its headquarters
here, is advocating more landing
fields with gas, oil and mechan
ics throughout the country, as an
aid i,o the greater development of
commercial aviation.
With tho projected plan of
making Die ZIU3 a pioneer in
the field of commercial aviation
in this country, by demonstrating
the practicability of air routes.
Interest in plating aviation on a
business basis is believed by Mr.
Cubot to be growing rapidly. At
present there are not more than
half a dozen commercial air
routes In the United States.
Promotion of .an uir service

about land travel skirting the
Florida coast, and to insure a

isaid that It is practicable to build
an airship of five million cubic
feet more than twice the cubic

Cabot. 'They also feel that the

chief development in .the near
future is going to be trans-oceti'i-ic
service for mail, high-class
freight, and passengers.
"The chief danger to Zeppelins
Is from storms. 1'sually It is
possible to avoid a storm by keep
ing In constant touch with the
meteorological stations over a
wide area on either side of the
route to be traversed, and eitlur
avoiding tho center of the dm

Kricdrichshafen to Lakehurst, N.
J., the ZH-3 avohled two su h
disturbances by shaping i.s
course in accordance with meteor
ological observations inudo over
a wide area.
"There has been from year to
year an Increase In commerclil
uir transportation, ' both hero and
in Kurope. The larger percent
age increase is in freight, and
tiie smaller percentage increase
in passengers. The relative ex
pense of uir transportation Is
extraordinarily low In Kurope. In
central Kurope It Is but little
more than railroad t rnnsportatioii.
" I hey have regular air service
between such centers iw London,
