FREAKS ENTITLED TO FAME
European Families That Had More
Than Ordinary Claims TO

There is living at Bilbao, Spain,
family of seven who between them
nossess no fewer than 1874 fingers. One
of them has % fingers, another a.
while of the remaining five each can
boast a couple of hands with IL Nh
gers apiece.
At Koshilivo, Russia, very similar
phenomenon exists in the fifty or more
descendants of peasant with extra
fingers on his hands, who married al
the beginning of the last century, all
of whom are lowered with from one
to five fingers in excess Of the norman
number. as. Es--sz -.
The last surviving member of what
was perhaps the record family with
regard to weight was. in the person
of Charles Atkins, few years back
inferred at Harrow. England. He
weighed 476 pounds. his brothers, who
predeceased him, being no less than
5O4 and $50 pounds. .....-.- .r
The family record for longevity has
NOT been beaten since Robert Parr, the
preat-grandson of the celebrated
Thomas Parr, died in 1857 at the age
of one hundred and twenty-four. His
father lived to celebrate his one hum
dred and ninth birthday, his grand
father reached one hundred and thir-
teen, while his greatgrandfather was
152 at the time of his death.
There is mentioned in the Harleian
Miscellany a Scotch weaver and his
wife who were the proud parents OF
60 children, so of whom reached their
majority.
Large as this family was, its fame
pales before that of Russian, one
Ivan Wassilig, who was the proud ia
Their of 81. BY his first wife he had
60 children in the following order:
Four times quadruplets at birth,
seven times triplets and 16 times
twins. BY his second spouse he had
twice triplets and six times twins.
Undoubtedly the record for misfor-
tune belongs to a Belgian family
| named Adnet. The father, Jean Adj
net. was drowned; his wife committed
! suicide, while of his two sisters one
| was killed by the kick of horse and
I the other by blow received from a
falling scaffold.
Jean Adnet had six children, four
sons and two daughters. OF these the
I latter persisted through the overturn-
ing of a pleasure boat. One OF the
sons was stabbed in drunken brawl,
another was crushed to death by q
heavy wagon, while the remaining
two, who emigrated to America. were
slain In 1891 while fighting for Bal

EucaIyptus-oil Industry.

The pioneer Of the Australian eu-
calyptus-oil industry was John White.
Sturgeon General to the Settlement"
who came to Sydney with the first
fleet, says the Sydney Bulletin. The
following passage occurs in his Jour
nal of Voyage to New South Wales"
published In London In 1870:
The name of peppermint tree has
been given to this plant by Mr.. White
on account Of the very great resem-
blance between the essential oil drawn
from its leaves and that obtained from
the peppermint (Mentha piperita)
which grows in England. This oil
was found by Mr.. White to be much
more eficacious in removing all
cholicky complaints than that OF the
English peppermint, which he attriD-
utes to its being less pungent ana
more aromatic.
White not only used the oil In N. .
Wales, but sent some to England. he
got It from tree which he called
Eucalyptus piperita. but which was
afterwards renamed q. capitellata.

CRADLES OF GREAT EDITORS
MANY Editorial Giants Got Their Early
Training on Village Newspapers
of New England.

The old New England village news
papers nourished race of Journalistic
giants. It was from a little Connecti-
cut office, that of the Connecticut
Mirror. that a keen Yankee. named
George d. Prentice, went forth to pre-
pare the way for that great light OF
Southern journalism, Henry Watter-
son.
The dingy little printing shops OF
Vermont trained in the service OF the
types many men who afterward be-
came eminent in metropolitan ana

uncouth and miserable little wretcn

then, as ever after, his very own, and
not mere imitation Addisonianisms.
From the shop in East Poultney ne
went forth to an illustrious career
and, whether it liked him or not, the
country had to listen to him. his

intellectual and moral achievement
but none in his honesty or his good
will toward his fellow countrymen.

Walks Upside Down.

Because he walks upside down as
well as right side up, the black-and-
white warbler is also frequently called
the black-and-white creeper, says the
American Forestry association of
Washington, which is conducting the
national birdhouse building contest.
This bird has been called a symphony
In black and white because of the
beautiful manner In which these Two
colors are used over his body. His
head is barred black and white with
a white stripe over each eye; he has
wing bars on each wing and the inner
webs of his outer tail feathers are
white patched. This bird gets most
Of his food by gathering insects and
erubs from the crevices in the bark Of
trees, thus destroying pests which
might work injury to fine trees.

FOLLOW THE TRACKS"
Regular Old Fashioned April First
Mystery Is With Us Today.

Tracks always have the atmosphere
of mystery about them. Doesn't make
any difference whether they be rail
road tracks, which lead into the land
of far away, or little or big foot prints
Tracks key up your imagination
particularly odd looking tracks, Per-
haps you can't figure out the sort of
animal that has passed on its journey.
That adds to the zest of the question.
Just because today is April LIST,
with its pranks and mysteries, it is a
right good time to try to puzzle out
the odd looking tracks which appear
in this issue.
Many animals have big, husky feet,
and it's worth while brushing up on
this track business to discover what
kind of an animal makes this sort O.
foot print.
After all, little fun adds to the joy
Of living. And you'll undoubtedly get
some fun out of this real April first
mystery.
Follow the Tracks" is the cry all
over the nation today. Study this mys-
terry picture and those that follow to-
morrow, Thursday and Friday. It'll
be lot of enjoyment. Just "Follow

WATSON WANTS
JAPAN TO LOSE
TREATY GRANT

WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. g
Senator James E. Watson, Repuo-
lican, of Indiana, believes that
Japan should be prevented from ac-
curing Shan-tung, Notwithstanding
the action of the Paris peace con-
ference. In an address delivered
before the senate yesterday after
noon, Senator Watson appealed to
his colleagues to reject that portion
of the Versailles treaty which gives
Japan control of the Chinese terri
tory.
The senator declared, in support
of his request, that the history OF
German and japanese acquisitions
on the Shan-tung peninsula had
been one wrong upon another. He
also called attention to the fact that
President Wilson had said that
Japan intends to return Shan-tung
to China, and asked why such a
clause had not been written into the
treaty.
The claims of good faith on the
part of Japan, he said, were unbe-
! lievable.

LABOR PLEASED;
TO STAND FIRM
FOR SIMS BILL

WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. g.
The members of the interstate com
merce committee of the house were
informed today by Frank Morrison,
secretary of the American Fedora
ton of Labor, that the big labor Or
ganization can be depended upon to
stand firmly behind the Sims bill,
which embodies labor's plan for the
reorganization of the railroads Of
the country The bill, he pointed
out, re-establishes the theory that
the railroads should be operated for
the benefit of the public instead of
for private profit.
The bill will squeeze all fictitious
profits from the operating compa-
MES and at the same time will re-
duce rates.
The bill provides for public own
ership of the roads and for private
operation.

ALL ARE TAKING
BIG PROFITS IN
SALE Of SHOES

WASHINGTON, q. c., Aug. e.
No one factor Is responsible for
the prevailing high price of shoes
in the United States, according to
a statement made today by members
of the federal trade commission.
Every factor concerned with the
manufacture and sale Of shoes Is
guilty of taking excessive profits,
with the result that the consumer
is compelled TO pay sum greatly
in excess of the value Of shoes pur-
chased. The list Of profiteers IN
cludes packers, tanners, manufacture
ers, and retailers.
The only remedy, says the state
ment. is to find some means Of regu-
lating profits, which investigation
has shown to be out Of all reason
under existing conditions.
