Oldc$t Work of Fiction
"The Tule of Two Brothers," so far
s anyone now knows, Is the oldest
existing piece of fiction. ' 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

Never "Something fdr Nothing
Nearer Perfect Bigger RelOnta
A Surprise for Elyah. '
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.

U on l.intritanco, no State tax on

Here your income la all yours ts ,

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. Hut
a higher, tbco will i;.nlually pro
dure fewer chHilrim. t
