From the Worcester Telegram.
1t should be expected that back
farms would have the call from men
who propose to raise fruit in Massa-
chusetts Thousands of farmers re-
port that automobile riders take so
much of their fruits there is hardly
so per cent of it left to be sold. For
twenty five or thirty miles outside of
Boston In all directions the gathering
of fruit. and especially apples, has been
carried on so extensively that the state
new form of law for the protection of
easily moved property. 1t is claimed
that fruit stealing has more than
doubled in the past few years since the
many took to riding out of cities in
automobiles to whiZ through the coun-
try The observers claim that a large
percentage of the automobiles come
back to the cities carrying bags. boxes
and blankets full of apples and other
kinds of fruit that has ripened- That
method of relieving the orchards of
their surplus is practically new addi-
ton to the older process OF sending the
children of poor families out into the
country to forage for fruit and nuts.
And the automobiles carry much more
away from the farmers than the chill
folks who have gone out of the cities
to show the children how, sometimes
in teams, but more generally in the
cars or all the way on foot. There APP
nears to be no sense of the rights OF
farmers to what they produce, and laws
are not even mentioned as worth taik-
ing about.

Another thoroughfare where the buying
is directed is 18th street, while in the
upper section of Connecticut avenue
south of Dupont Circle a piece Of prop
erty changed hands at a figure that is
in keeping with the recent course of the
market.
The movement on 9th street appears to
be passing north of G street, as several
transfers have been recorded recently OF
property in the block between G and II
streets. In connection with the open
ing of the new Federal National Bank
at the southeast corner of 18th and G

erty for the use of the bank, it was said
that the value placed on the property by
the owners averaged about SIG per square

Pharaoh a Fat Man.

From the Philadelphia Inquirer
1t is with no little surprise that we
learn from the eminent Egyptologists who
have been studying the mummy of
Pharaoh that he was a fat and bald
headed man. We hasten to say that
Pharaoh is simply title, but the prom
inence of Menpthah has led most persons
to imagine that his real name was
Pharaoh. Our surprise Is due to the OBJ
servation of a psychological fact that
most fat and bald-headed men are jolly.
large In their emotions and generally
easy to get along with in any ordinary
crisis A reading Of the Book Of Exodus
would lead most of us to believe on Who'll
Iy priori grounds that Menpthah was
lean, saturnine sort OF individual with
dyspepsia and particularly bad liver.
We can only account for the facts as
shown by an examination of the corpse
Of the late lamented that he must prove
one Of those exceptions to the rule which
are constantly Haunted in our faces. Per-
haps the only lesson to be learned from
this new development Is that the Pharaoh
Of the Exodus was not negro. Most
persons imagine that the Egyptians be-
long to the negro race. The rulers OF
Egypt have always been Aryans or
Semites. and the fellahin show to this
day the same remarkable facial charac-
ments four THOUSAND years old. When
Rhadames and Aida were making love the
types in Egypt were the same as now.
We wonder II many who think them

Egypt in the year when the prophets
sent forth their denunciations and when
Nehemiah and Ezra wrote of the career
Of Jerusalem after the Exile. The point
to be made at this time is that the
worst Of the kings Of Egypt was a fat
man, and he belied psychology in his
stubbornness and prosecutions.

Undoubtedly the little Island Of Jersey

fruit culture have helped, but it is the
solid, continued profit of the cattle that
has made the island rich.
So carefully do they tend them there
and so frugal are they of waste In trod-

their animals. and the children or indoor
servants shift them at morn, noon and

Bourget in his physiology of Modern

There is supposed to be conflict be-

thought to be a peculiarly modern war.
This is mistake. The real battle is
between the idealists and the material
lists, and is as old as the oldest Greek
philosophy.
From the beginnings Of thought down
to the present day thinkers may be di-
vided into two classes; one tending to
believe that all things are derived from
matter. the other holding that all things
have their origin in spirit.

From the Pittsburgh Press
We hear from Philadelphia that some
thing is the matter with the Old liberty
bell: that the crack in ii is widening, and
that if appears to be without resonance
or voice. An expert has been put on the
case to diagnose the trouble.
Is it possible that the spirit or the bell
has become discouraged and taken its
departure. leaving nothing but mass of
junk?
Is 1t possible that the spirit finds no
message from the people-no inspiration
to proclaim the gospel of liberty?
Has the bells spirit seen the decadence
of our freedom: seen an economic tyranny
substituted for the feudalism which was
overthrown?
Is it's tongue paralyzed by the bitter cry
of children working in the factories?
Is the note of gladness drowned by the
means of widows whose husbands have
