Joe Alexander's Plans
In the Developments that have taken
place since the Almarolia woman'a
death. Joseph Alexander, the younger
foster-son, has been content tc keep In
the background and avoided getting his
name IN the newspapers. Unlike Lewis.
he remained IN Washington after he
grew up and went 10 work. first on a
farm near the city. and later In various
positions OF manual labor. He is now a
switchman on the Metropolitan Railway,
and may be seen at WORK ea-h day at

who wouldn't know a friII If he saw one

who know that Joe Alexanuer's father

Made Him Taller

Would you like 20 be taIler7 II so, you
can be stretched.
Sergt. George Z. Burr OF Abe National
Guard Of Massachusetts wes stretched.
He wished to become lieutenant OF hts
company in the city OF Worcester. but
was not tall enough. With soldierly
heroism he undertook to have himself
made taller. and succeeded. Then, IN
fortunately for him, his company failed
10 elect him TO the Office he coveted
Except for his lack Of inches. Ser
geant Burr is an admirable soldier. He
has training, strength and endurance
When an opportunity came for promo
ton from the nOn-cOmmissIoned ranks.
he felt that he would like to wear
shoulder straps. But there was his ag-
sravating height. or. rather. the lack
OF IT, IN the way. He was half an inch
shorter than the FIVE feet four inches Of
stature required by military regulations
How 70 get the additional half inch
was problem, for Mr.. Burr is thirty
nYe years old and has stopped growing
A good soldier Is necessarily resource
ful, and the dimlnutive soldier did not
lose hope. He read or was told OF
stretching machine. invented and man
ufactured by man somewhere in New
York. The suggestion set Burr 70 think
Ing, and carried his mind back 70 the
dreary physiology lesson in the school
days Of long ago.
He recalled from those misty recol-
lections OF anatomy that the spinal COL
urnn Is somewhat elastic. owing to the
cartilage connections Of the bones and
the fact that the cartilage will stretch.

is at night. provided he has spent the
niEht as he should. I'm bed. The spinal
column relaXes and he grows IN his
sleep. only TO lose IL again, however
during the next days work
In principle the stretching machine IS
simDle-it Just pulls the spinal column
little every day. allowing the cartilage
between the sections to grow and
strengthen. Burr needed only half an
inch, so he purchased a backbone
stTetCher
The apparatus IS best described as A
harness. The feet are fastened 10 the
harnessed in a cOntrivancc that con-
meets with pulleys. The patient can
pull his backbone out as much as he
likes. or 10 the limit OF his strength and
endurance. II reminds one of the old
torture machines Of the Inquisition op-
Grated BY the victim himself
He Was asked n the treatment hurt
No" he answered reluctantly He
called II severe exercise. but he was not
so enthusiastic as a golfer usually IA
over his chosen method Of amusement
But, after all this daily racl1ing. and
after he had added the desired half inch
Burr failed OF election as lieutenant
II seems that his secret got out, and
