"UNCLE JOE" IN ROLE
OF MATRIMONIAL AGENT

Washington.-People all over the
country write to Uncle Joe Cannon
about everything.
Some of them criticise him and
some of them praise him. but all of
them always want something for
mebody-usually themselves. But
the prize package in the way of a re-
quest dropped in on "Uncle Joe" in
the form of a perfectly respectable
looking letter the other day. Here
ii is:
Our beaux cannot marry we girls
because all foods and clothing is toe
high. What good is us girls if we dc
not have husbands? Why don't you
make congress provide husbands for
us? You will do the country more
good by seeing that all the young peo-
pie are married. If all the young
people were married we would not
need any congress or president. This
would then be a paradise. We must
have husbands. Get some for us"
For reasons of delicacy the ladys
name is omitted, but the letter is
postmarked Cleveland, Ohio.

HENRIK IBSEN HOUSE
is NORWEGIAN PLAN

Copenhagen The plan to make the
house in which Henrik Ibsen lived at
Grimstad, Norway fry m 1914 to 1850,
when the great Norwegian writer
wrote his first tragedy, Catilna, a ma
tional shrine at which the thousands
of followers of the great scandinavian
genius in all parts of the world may
worship is being pushed rapidly and
wifi certainly be successful.
Ibsen was born at Skien, but the
house in which he first saw the light
has been destroyed and the Grimstad
apothecarie's house where the poet,
as a boy, learned to make liniments,
| tinctures and pills,Nis all that remains
to recall his youth.
A national movement was started
| in Norway to purchase it and to fill
it with memorials and biographical
! objects--to make an Ibsen house in
fact, which shall be to Norwegians- all
that the Goethe house in Frankfurt
| is to Germans.
| The committee, on which is promi-
nent the sole surviving early friend OF
Ibsen, the venerable Mr.. Christian
| Due, is bringing the fact of its for
nation before the admirers Of the
| great poet all over the world. The
Norwegian committee will be CRATE

scriptions of any friend of Norway

monetary prize was held out to the
old man as a reward for his heart
breaking feat.
The transcontinental walk was made
by the aged philosopher and athlete
not fer money nor yet for fame, but
as an object lesson to the youth of
America of the beneficial results TO
be attained through walking. Weston
has crossed the continent as the apos-
tie of the gospel of walking.
This achievement would tax the
physical resources of young man
and is nothing short of wonderful
one who has exceeded the Biblical al
lotment of years. Weston is some
thing more than the mere performer
of a pedestrian stunt" He Is one of
the finest examples in the whole world
of what orderly living. sensible diet
and judicious exercise will do to pre-.
serve a good constitution to the enjoy
ment of a rugged old age.
The aged pedestrian. at seventy two,
tramping sixty and seventy miles a
day without serious fatigue. is worth
more as an example to the rising gen
Grafton than all the Marathon runners
