A few days ago we met Mr.. W. NJ Phil

voluntarily made the following statement
which we publish at his request: about
ten years ago my wife became afflicted with
trouble, and prevented her from looking
after her household duties, nevertheless she
was under the care of several physicians
Her health gradually grew worse, aud for
the past six months, until quite recently
she has been entirely unable to do her
household work Five weeks ago DR.. Ahl-

meneed getting better from the beginning
of his treatment, and al the present time
her health Is better than il has been fit any

not regard her as being completely cured
she IS SO far recovered as to he able to look
after her household duties without undue
fatigue. Her appetite is good and deem
her well on the road to complete recovery.

which will be the highest Office building on
Broadway At the recent laying OF the
corner stone there was large concourse Of
distinguished citizens, and the ceremonial
LAYING was done by Master Elliott T. Shep-
ar the son of the colonel.
There were songs, short speeches and
regular Grafton by Mr.. Frederick Taylor
on the newspaper power. The ornamental
front of the new structure is on Broadway,
but the ell, if such it may be called, as it is
much the wider, fronts on Fulton street.
The Broadway lot is but twenty-five feet
wide, and from the street level TO the foot
os the flagstaff the distance will be oil
feet; yet the great difficulty thus presented
has been largely overcome by the skill of
the architect. There will be twelve full
stories above the Broadway sidewalk and
below it two stories, making fourteen full
stories. But above the cornice the tower
viii contain four stories, thus making
eighteen full stories, including the base
ment.
The frontage on Fulton street is 81 feet,
and the distance is 50 feet back to the
Broadway lot, which is 1853 feet deep and
but IS feet wide, making the general out
line rather peculiar. The building viii be

Professor Bryce in his great work, 1.-THE
Americsn Commonwealth" said that this
was particularly so Of the United States
So, therefore, think it will be wise to con-
tiuue these anniversary celebrations in all
parts of the cehntry In Gloucester, Mass,
one of the Oldest towns in New England,
preparations are already IN progress for
celebration of the two hundred and flftieth
anniversary of the incorporation OF that
town. This place, which originally in
cluded the whole Of Cape Ann, was really
settled in 1924, but it was sixteen years
later that it was incorporated, and took its
name from the old English cathedral city,
whence many Of the first settlers had come.
The old Gloucester of Massachusetts, may
seem young to the mother town which is
of British origin, having been built pre-
vfsus to the Roman occupation. But not
withstandiRg this, high civilities will be
exchanged between the new town and the
old, and messages of cengratulstion will
be flashed under the sea. while formal adj
dresses will be carried across the waters.
There are several older towns than this,
however, In New England, and the most
notable are plymouth, where the Pilgrims
landed in 1920; Salem, which John Endi-
cott sepbIeo III lOSc, Anu DosUoh, "HeIo
John Winthrop's party settled in 1880.
Of Boston need not speak. Every school
boy knows her history by heart, and if he
does not, he should waste no time in learn
ing much more of it than could ever be
limited at in newspaper article. Plym-
outh, with the rock which is the shrine of
every true New Highlander, needs nothing
that could say which is not more fittingly
said at the New England gatherings which
take place every year in every considerable
settlement in America. Salem went in
for religion at the beginning, as the first
church organization in New England was
effected there in 1929. The zeal of the peo-
pie of this old town in this particular direc-
ton eliminated some sixty years later
when they hanged the Quakers and burned
the witches

Another artist in this line of business
now temporarily embarrassed, is Mr..
Patrick O'Brien, better known as Paddy
the Pig. Patrick looks like a substantial
merchant, but he isn't. He is better known
at New York police headquarters than in
Wall street, and is the reputed head of a
gang that combines in true proportions the
green goods and express business. Re-
Gently George Williams, a Missouri lead
miner and the representative of a Zincite
syndicate of would be counterfeit ''shov-
ers," called On Mr.. O'Brien, who kindly
agreed to give him s., 600 in bad money for
$500 in good. Williams was shy, and
wouldn't trade until sure that everything
was all right. So package was made NJ
which one Of the rascals, accompanied by
Williams, carried to an express" Office.
There the Missourian got a receipt and
gave up his cash. Then he was rushed off
to the Pennsylvania railway station and
put on a homeward bound train. By the
time he reached Philadelphia he thought
he had been swindled and returned.
Officers arrested Paddy the Pig, but
when he was brought TO court he glared so
fiercely at Williams and kicked him 50
sharply in the shins that the representative
of the Zincite syndicate didn't dare identi-
fy him. So the case went over for few
days, the authorities hoping that the
countryman will get back his nerve and
push the case If be doesn't, they intend

them, Senator q. n. Burton. of Fort Bend
county. is proprietor of his former masters

In Connecticut and in Rhode Island
there are also old towns which are in q
general sense of contemporary origin with
those OF Massachusetts,. New Haven. for
instance, was settled in 1858, and for
twenty-tour years continued to be dis
tinct colony; then is was united to Con-
necticut. And New London was settled
in 1919 by the same John Winthrop who.
nineteen years before, had planted a col
eEy upon the peninsula which now is Bos-
ton. In the same year in which New
Haven was settled, Roger Williams and
the other gentlemen of the Company Of
Providence Plantations" settled Provi-
dence and Newport, in Rhode Island. II

The latest strike" is said to have been
made in the foothills of the Pine Nut
mountains, some twenty miles south OF
Carson City, New. The discoverer, and 50
far the only man 30 take out any of the
precious metal, Is William Zirn, a Ger

America for score of years. During the
last decade he has devoted his attention to
the Pine Nut region, which was searched

St. Augustine, in Florida, is the oldest
town in the United States of purely Eu-
ropean origin, as it was settled by the
Spaniards under Menendez in 1855. How
they who built the old fort would open
their eyes if they could see what has been
done there in the last few years, during
which there has been waved over the
place the magic wand which financial
kings possess, bidding palaces to arise
which are almost marvels Of the world.
From this hurried sketch it will be seen
that there are many places in the land not
exactly young-thet is, places which have,
so to speak, cut their first teeth. But while
bordering on such things it is well to re-
member that youth, after all, is the best
possession of either man or state. After
youth comes maturity; after maturity old
age and then inevitable decay.
