STUDYING MUMMIES

Tr?Coolidge will spend his
vacation jr. the west. ;n response to
many invitations. He should drive a
big automobile from Kansas City to
Seattle down to San Diego, fishing
here and there. He wouid see millions
of Americans that like him.
The biggest wars are soon forgotten.
Over a direct cable from the
United States to Germany, opened
last week President Coolidge wired
President Hiridenburg his hope that
"this additional means of communication
w5H promote mutual understanding
and good will between the
. two countries." And President Tim
* denbiirjjf replied most politely. Germar.y.
mi of an exutyisice fleet. expel
nsive standing army and expensive
Kaiser, attends to businc & and goes
ahead more rapidly than, any other
country in Europe.
Mrs. Il-nry Fairfield Odborn en
iertained friends at. the Museum of
Natural History, in honor of the
fcyramiusaurus, in Dinosaur Hall.
That monster is 17 feet Jong from
bis beak to the end of his tail, IS
foot high at the hips. 21 foot around
tbo wai with bones that weigh snore
than two tons.
He was a powerful animal, hut
couldn't last because he didn't have
a brain big in proportion to the size
of his body.
Civilisation has developed a more
powerful creature, which is the twolegged
billionaire, able to control and
conunund the work of 200.000,000
Mien for one day.
That billionaires will soon be numerous
and the interesting question
f' concerning him will be, "What about
His orain?" Will it be big <*noiigb t>
keep hii? safe?
The learned Dr. Sack, of Ikidcb
berg I'nivorsitv, studying thousand?
of Egyptian mammies, finds that higb
living killed off rich Egyptians as I
IL'ills off rich Americans now.
Foolish eating, lack of ? noivisc, especially
lack of d ep breathing. have
Mirough the centuries been -kinmuhg
the scum off the boiling pbt of civilization.
Mummies' of the fifty dynasty show
signs of tuberculosis, affecting the
spine, ur.d gout, swelling the joints;
Where money is. men will dig. It
was proved in Italy before arrhilec-.s
had learned how to make great denu s
like* thai on Si. Peter's hold themselves
tip as they rose in the ni: One
dome was built and filled with earth
t-.i support it. as it rose, until the
sides met at the lop. Putting in the j
earth would he miich less ex pensive
than taking it out. So they mixed
the earth beneath the dome with
* small coins of a total value much less
than the cost of removing the earth.
When the dome was finished the";
population was told it could bear
blway the coin-bearing dirt. The'
dome stood empty.
This country ipst year imported
more than $80,000,000 worth of
piireious. stones, S5,000,000 more
i ban the year before. Ami those
pure huscs were made without thv a^i&fnncc
of the extinct race of bar
tenders to each of w hom a Jartre diamond
was its necessary as a white
apron.
M. Millet, Krench socialist, would
tear down the honey l-.ee's reputation

many others, back to Arist ' .
The bee is .1 dull, much;. i creature,
says Millet; it does nut know
that it poletiizes flowers and blossoms,
does not even know which flowers
have honey, thinks only of yrotiinjj
