tropical countries principally were in

became necessary to go to other lands
where a colder climate was found and
where greater needs developed man s
intellect. The progress in foresight
and thrift which began in those early
days has been halted at the arctic.
he, said, because there was no season
of growth there.
II believe, however,. he added.

so that the necessary demand for

100 tons Of half inch and fve-eighths

Forty thousand feet of lumber were
used to form the interior supports.

That there is no longer any neees-

with coal heretofore regarded as

that they have found similar condi-

HOW TO LIVE 1000 YEARS.
DR.. Fair Says White Clothing and
Fresh Air Will Do 1t.

"If every persen in the city of Bos-
ton when he arose tomorrow morning
would dress entirely in white from the
skin out and would go thus attired for
single day the wearing of this color
for even such a short period would in
crease the longevity of every person
in the city by whole year
This is the doctrine of Dr. John Fair,
head of Boston's newest cult, the
new life DR.. Fair asserts that he
| is now living in his third incarnation.
| the two former mortal eXistences, one
| In the time of the Prophet Isaiah and
| the other in the thirteenth and four
| teenth centuries, being well remem-
bered by him.
Il offer to every one who accepts my
years of life If it is desired" says DR..
Fair. sit is easily achieved by adopt
ing the teachings of the new life
creed. Dress always in white.
"White is the prime principle of life.
The two words white and life are
closely related. On the other hand
believe there should be universal
law making 1t crime for any person
to go attired in black or dark apparel
Dark is synonymous with death and
should be prohibited. just as all
thought OF death should be banished
from the mind. Do not think of death:
do not believe in death. Keep your
mind In condition where only the
most cheerful and brightest thoughts
will prevail.
Live principally upon vegetables
and nuts. Abiure meat. milk, oil and
flesh of all kinds as we'll rs all stimu-
lants. Sleep eight hours daily. exercise
eight hours and work eight hours.
"a mans most critical hour in the
day is the thirty minutes before and
after meals. He should absolutely
stop work a half hour before each
meal and must not resume work until
a half hour after each meal Sleep
with your bedroom window open every
night all your lifetime Always have
draft in your ROOM"

THE NEW "TAFT ROSE"
Philadelphia Society Woman lnvents
Novelty For Lovers of Dress.


Novelty For Lovers of Dress.
There IS novelty in the market for
all feminine lovers of dress, which,
aside from its beauty and charm of
adornment, possesses an unusual in;
terest in the fact that it has been com
mented upon. admired and In fact in
presidents wife, Mrs. Taft.
A prominent society woman of Phil
adelphia invented the Taft rose for
by this name it will be known, Mrs.
Taft graciously giving the permission
to have the rose named after her in a
personally written note to the inventor.
The rose itself is made of taffeta, the
petals being cut and shaped, wired,
stitched and turned Most of them
show two or three shades of silk,
blending in soft, beautiful tones. Their
instigator, who is an artist, displays
this fact In her selection Of colors and
blending, and each one is an object Of
beauty. The roses are about eight
inches in diameter.
The Taft rose made its initial ap-
pearance few days ago, and 1t is ex-
pected that it will be one of the most
popular hat adornments of the sum-
mer. OF course there will be attempts
to copy it. but the inventor has had it
patented, her license covering every
city in the United States and every
feature Of It's makeup. Every rose
shows the date of the patent on the
back Of the last petal
