It is certain that the first VanderV Mlt, the old commodore, who began as a skipper between New York and Staten island putting dollar upondol- lar and thought upon thought, plan upon plan, became financial king ac cording to conditions in his time. He built railroads, developed industries lived a fuller, happier life, with more variety and enjoyment in it than the third Vanderbilt. He was not born in to wealth, but acquired it; to him wealth and millions were new things. It is certain that a man who starts from the bottom, without the aid of any one except his own hands and brains, and acquires well being and health and happiness by self-denial for himself and for a wife and children, will enjoy much more pleasure and variety in life than a man born to riches, who was not inspired by any particular ambition.

' No True Century Ptent. There are no true century plants in the sense tnat it takes them a hun dred years to bloom. A number of plants, however, do not bloom until? they have lived for a long term of years. The classic example of such plants is the talipot palm of India which lives for 50 years or more and becomes a tall tree before it blooms. After it has sent up - its immense flower-stalk the whole plant dies. Our American "century plants" cf ten fruit at the end of eight or ten years under natural conditions, but in the house they may refuse to bloom at all. Many of the bamboos act like the cen tury piants, and bloom but once after a long period of vegetation. Such species are .known as monocarpic plants. Woman Apegei Her Companion Stole $3,440 From Her in Brooklyn, New York. Mrs. Mary Lukosewicz, a widow of Brooklyn, appeared in the Flatbush court against Alexander Bukantis, 39, whom she accused of stealing her &.440, her savings of tec years. She alleged she accepted Bukan tis' invitation to go bathing with him at Mill island, Jamaica bay. She placed the money in a hand bag and, arriving at the bathing beach, Bukan tis said he did not care to take a dip, but prevailed upon her to do so. She left the' hand bag in his custody, she alleges, and when it was vagain handed back to her the money was missing Bukantis pleaded not. guilty and Magistrate O'Neil held him , in $1,000 bail for further hearing later. ; Twins Smallest Folk Alive. Bogaltisa, La. Billie , and Jack .Adams, twins of Mr. and Mrs. William Adams, are believed by local doctors to be the smallest folk extant. Billie weighed 11' ounces a J birth and Jack 17. Mrs. Adams' six other children are of normal size. The midgets ap pear t( be in perfect health.

The second in rank, Illinois, falls to around 4,000,000, while the 3,000,000 class includes only Mis souri, Indiana, Nebraska and Ohio. Kansas, which used to boast of its great droves, now has fewer than 2, 000,000, a drop since 1910 from. 3,000, 000.
