TALE OF TWO POOR NEPHEWs
Each Tried to Please the Rich OLD
Uncle. Who Then Made a
New NIl.

There once was a rich old uncle
who had two poor nephews.
And when Christmas came the two
poor nephews were anxious TO show
the rich old uncle how much they
thought of him.
Now the first poor nephew reasoned
that he should impress his rich old
uncle with the great affection he bore
him by some tangible means. So he
drew out his savings and purchased
for his rich old uncle a magnificent
gold watch, and had # neatly en-
graved. To II he attached a gorgeous
chain. put the whole affair In a Law.
ishly decorated box and sent II TO his
rich old uncle with his best wishes.
The second poor nephew figured
that any extreme financial outlay
would convince his rich old uncle that
he was trying to jolly him a bit too
much, so he invested nickel in
neat but tasty Christmas card, which
he mailed to the rich old uncle.
So the rich old uncle received the
two remembrances and said OF the
lrSt nephew;
Humphl A man who will spend
all he has for a gold watch to give to
man who already has all the watches
he ever win need hasn't got enough
Judgment to be trusted with money
| will leave him my blessing and a few
words Of good advice"
When he looked at the card he nod
ded his head approvingly and said:
There's man after my own heart
He knew would not care for an ex.
pensive gift and he knew that would
value his good wishes, so he very
wisely sent them to me in this mex.

economical trait and | am sure he

any aid from me-"
So he made a new will and left all
his money to found an institution for

Ohio Physicist Gives Old Newton

falling body.
Doctor Brush established the con-
verse theory that the energy exhibited
in the gravitation is fully restored to
the ether when the body is raised
against the grayitation attraction
Doctor Brush assumes the ether to be
endowed with vast intrinsic kinetic
energy, which is in wave form and is
translated to the atoms or molecules.
In his paper on the "Kinetic Theory
of Gravitation," read before the
physics section of the scientists con-
vention, Doctor Brush, after discus
sing at length the origin of the en-
ergy acquired by falling body, con-
cludes that the gathered energy
comes from the ether through which
the body falls. Conversely" said
Doctor Brush, equivalent energy Is
restored to the ether when the body
is raised against grayitatlon attrac-
