IHe was born a hunchback in a poor section of Charlestown, Mass. His father was a freight handler on the docks: his mother took in. washing. He was the ninth child. Slow to de velop and weak of physique, his onlv schoolinar was three terms in a nubile school. When he was thir teen he was earning $1.00 a day as a dishwasher in an all-night lunch wagon in Boston. ' He walked to and from his job a distance of over four miles daily. In the nf 1901. when he was 17 years old, he conceived the idea of ' offering tempting and wholesome luncheons to Harvard students in Cambridge.

By means of the Sticky mesa, the sundew attracts and entangles its prey. Then the edge of the leaf curve Inward, forming a sort of stomach Into which an add secretion is poured to digest the meal. The portions which cannot be dlgeeted are later thrown out and the trap Is set tor the next victim. The sundew taems to know wheu food Is near, for If meat la placed dose to It the plant slowly reaches out for It If a portion la placed within a few Inches of the plant the leaf will bend toward It until the tiny hairs enfold the delicacy and tne sticky substance completes the grip. Hl Honor Decorates Beauty " Miss Aileen ' Riggin, American swimming star, was one of the Olympic athletes to rweive the New York City Decoration at the fcands of Mayor Hylan. Both seemed to enjoy the occasion. NOT courses. He had saved $115 from his meagre pay and with this he rented a "hole in the wall" which faced Harvard ;- University on Massachusetts avenue, Cambridge. An attractive sign over his tiny door read, "Eat Well Think Bet ter." His specialties consisted of home-cooked meats, pies, iced cof fees, teas and lemonade. A widow living across the street did the cooking. He bought the food and paid her ten per cent gross of his earnings. Before winter of that year he had salted away $1,100 'in cash and all his bills were paid. Before the winter was over'he had enlarged his place to accommodate 150 persona, employed nine waiters gHg and a French chef did the cookjng.

' It was writ ten 82 centuries ago by Emma, a scribe of Thebe, who was librarian In the palace of King Manepta. ideutlfled by some as the pharaoh who held the Israelites In bondage. The tale, which Is written on 19 sheet of papyrus, appears to hove been Invented to entertain the oldest of the princes who subsequently Hi oemlcd the Egyptian throne. This xtriuiKe old manuscript now reposes In the Hi It luti niuaeuin, where It Is known us the "D'Orblney papyrus." Another old book, written more than g thousHiid years ago, mentions two breeds of poultry which are. still being mlsed In China tod&jri s HAD LEY balance amounted to $16,500. Dur ing the four years student frienda who patronized his place took enough interest 1ft him to tutor him and at the end of the four years his education was equivalent .. to that of a high school graduate. Incidentally he learned shorthand and became a law reporter. He sold out, moved to Chicago and opened a large lav reporting offite . . a J .

' No Population Scare. Charles Fox ofTers to the United States Government an engine that "consumes no gas or other fuel and runs forever." The inventor says, "You Just start ner up ana iv ner and he thinks It will bring mil lions. It won't brinu a cent. A' Power wiser than Charles rox, wker even than Calvin Coolldge, . won't allow us to get "something for nothing." That wouia he oaa for us. Therefore there Is no per petual motion, nothing worth hav ing. for which we don't give effort and value in return. It pays to. develop a perfect tiling, from cows to radio. Mrs. 11. McK. Twombly, of New Jer sey. owns a Guernsey named Langwater Fairy, No. 97979. She looks like any othtr cow, but gives three times as much milk, four and a half times as much butter fat as the average cow. Her aris ing record lust announced is 1 3,606 puunds of butter fat in one year. In that kind of prosperity there Is no speculation, no manipulating. Just plain, simple production of wealth through intelligent attention to breeding. Dally the radio offers something new. This time it Is "broadcast ing church munic for rural wed dings." The bride, trembling, will give the last poke at hr-r hair, the last tug at her veil. The sexton will "tune in," and up she will march, In Farmlngdale, N. J., to the tune of "Faithful and Trus," played in Chicago, III. Florida says. "Come." The rich will answer. "I'm hurrying." Have you an Income T Florida offers you attractions over and above the flne e.Iinate. Florida Intends to put Into ber constitution a provlMon that will exempt Incomes and in Wltanres from ail toxntirl. This is Intended as "a court xy l-i pros perous people front the mrth.

W chop off nothing and your heirs all you leave them when you oie. We won't tax dead, men." . ' . x ' A Ion time ago Ellsha' "took hold of Tii own clothes and rent them in two pieces," when he saw Elijah go up in "a chariot of fire and horses of fire." What are Elisha and Elijah, now in heaven, saying to each other as they see the Eight Reverend Harold Robert Carson, Bishop of tho Epis copal Diocese of Haiti, calmly rid ing from one parish to another in a By ing machine t The navy lends him the flying machine and he visits places otherwise Inaccessible. All that men can IMAGINE they can DO. Dr. Pearl, professor of biometry and vital statistics at Johns Hop kins, says our population will be 197.000,000 in the year 2100. That will be our maximum and then will come a decline. With all due respect to the learned professor, any child could make as good a guess. Dr. William Allen Putey recent ly told the American Medical As sociation that population would reach 176.000,000. And "with that density of population, the pressure of existence will become so strong . that the death ,rete, particularly infant mortality, will overtake the birth rata," That Is another poor guess. Under intensive cultivation, as it is now understood, the State of Texas alone could feed the earth's entire population, and that is at least sixteen hundred millions. There will be a thousand million human beings in THIS country, infinitely happier, richer, better off in every way, than any poptt . lation that aver has lived. In 194 Tears, alnce 1800. our 7 population has risen from 8,000,000 to 112,000,000. What la the use of guessing what will happen tn the next 120 years t It would have been impossible to guess how many people thla country could feed be- lore harvTstrng machinery WM In vented. Impossible before the Vf rival of the tractor. , Lack of food won't limit popula tion. Men's . brains will always provide for thuir atnmacha.
