by polygamy. The logic is obvious.
If in these days of light families one
wife bears but one or two children.
five wives say. will bear five TO ten
children, and there you are.
But this mathematical reasoning
has its defects. For II the present toll
erably even division of tn" sexes at
fords ONE wife 70 one man all around,
where. are we to get the two to five
wives for each male? Or. since W.
are told that the Mitgar school pro-
poses to confine their multiple mating
to persons of established mental and
physical strength and beauty, where
are they Ia get an outfit of two or
moro eusenic wives for every cugenic
husband"
There is another puzzling practical
question. Since one of the noted
causes of the declining birth ratio is
that the husband has to keep huStlins
TO provide his single wife and her linn

other necessities, where is the self

were SEPARATED
SEVENTEEN YEARS
Brothers Met at Vallev
City After Many Years
of Waiting.

Valley City, n. D., Aug. 23.-After
being separated for more than seven
teen years. during which time they
had not heard from each other, E. B.
Stull. secretary of the Herradura
Plantation company, and his brother,
George Stull, a business man Of Mi
not, were reunited. The last time
they met was at their mothers funer-
al in Rochester. n. Y. more than sew
enteen years ago. Shortly after the
funeral rites there was q dispersion of
the family. f. B. Stull, who has been
a resident of North Dakota for TWEEN
ty-two years. returned to Valley City,
David Stull returned to his home in
Chicago. and George Stull started out
in the world and was lost sight Of, but
not forgotten.
Neglect Of correspondence is the
only reason for the long separation,
and George Stull pleads guilty to be-
ing responsible. knowing, however,
that his brother had interests in VAL
ley City. he did not worry about los
ing track of him, and postponed writ
ing from day to day. until the days
stretched into weeks. the weeks into
months. and months into years. A
ear ago last June George Stull pass
ed through Valley City and asked the
police about his brother, E. B. Stull.
He was informed that Z. B. Stull was
still here. and continued his Journey,
with mind fully made up to write as
DOR as ne reached Minot. But the
old habit of %postponing letter writing
asserted itself and none was written.
a few days ago George Stull gave
up the idea of writing and made UP
his min to board the train and ac-
count for himself to his elder brother
in person. His arrival was a pleasant
surprise to E. B.. Stull and his family,
and the two brothers have since been
cumming around together like they
did when they wore knee trousers.
After the reunion George Stull learned
that his brother David died In Chicago
about nine years ago.
ut is all my fault" said George
Stull this morning. II simply neglect
ed writing. I don't know why, but
it seems when n fellow gets q Ions
way from home and travels a greai
deal. he falls into negligent habits In
connection with his correspondence,
time fairly flies and he wakes ur
eventually to realize that It has been
years since he heard from his family
and longer since he has seer any OF
the members. Then he want to Ee1

the water poured in just as if the boat

FLY TO TUE MOON.

(New York Mail.)
ON the deck of LA Provence at the
beginning of an old fashioned ocean
Journey for n summer in France, Gar
rctt p. Scrviss. the Well known as
tronomer, today talked seriously of
an airship service to the moon. which
be thinks the future has in store for
man.
81 begin to think seriously, but not
too seriously. now that we have
achieved the navigation of the air by
mechanical means. that there only
remains the necessity of providing air
to exist upon n things to eat for
man to go to the MOON" he said.
But we have got to have a new

to overcome gravity, and there are
only two forces which overcome grav-
lty under certain conditions-pressure

say that the first flying ma
chino to the moon will be based on
the principle Of the pith ball that flies
away from the conductor of an cleo
trical machine. When this has been
accomplished there only remains to
he done what modern chemistry can
a~chieve--that is. to fill a strong YES
sci, n spherical vessel, with enough
food and air to sustain mel during
the flight. This Is not so ridiculous
as it may seem. and the modern
achievement OF ryinG is a step in that
diroction.'
Incidentally. Professor Scrviss does
not believe there are any inhabitants
on Mars. My friend Lowell" he
said, doesn't ALLOW for that fact that
Mars is too small to retain an atmos-
pherc. Human beings could not re-
main on Mars because there probably
is not enough oxygen and nitrogen
on that planet. The gravitative force
is too small to retain an atmosphere.
The atmosphere flies away. Those
lines called canals are no doubt IL
natural phenomenon. Notwithstanding
the fact that They look artificial.
Their existence is due to the fact that
Mars is a very fiat planet. There are
no mountains there. and waters
spread out in every direction and form
connecting lines. The drainage sys-
tenn runs in every direction and gives
that c~heckered appearance of crisis
