TO BE NEW WORLDS WONDER
Japanese at Work on Statue Of St.
Nichlren, Cutting II From
the Solid Rock.

On the Isle of Cows Head, in that
beautiful inland sea, which has been
called the Mediterranean of Japan, a
ledge of rock -overlooks the water, and
here a small army Of japanese work
men are busy at the first cuttings that
will eventually carve out the largest
statue in the world The Colossus Of
Rhodes, at one time one Of the seven
wonders Of the world, Is said to have
been 120 feet high-a small thing COM
pared with the figure Of Liberty that
stands ISL feet above Its pedestal In
New York harbor-but the japanese
statue will be Of even greater magni-
tude. Following the line Of the natu-
raj rock 1t will be a reclining figure
240 feet long, and therefore that much
more impressive than the Buddha at
Pegu, Burma, which from head to foot
measures 1872 feet. The Isle Of the
Cows head is private property, and
thls Brobdingnagian adornment is
~0Sk OF private enterprise. The re
ciiBing figure will be that Of st. Nlchi
rem, who founded the sect Of Buddhism
that bears his name. In the wooden
model the saint lies asleep, facing who
ever sees him, his head pillowed on a
block, and his left arm extended
along his side; somewhat archaic fig
ure, yet with considerable realism.
For the enormous statue that is to be
cut out Of the solid rock from the
model the trees and greenery of the
isle Of the Cows head will provide an
excellent setting.

FEW SEE SECOND CENTURY
Not Many Claiming to Be over One
Hundred Years Of Age Can
Prove It

Sea serpents being out Of date, and
wild men" somewhat exhausted of
interest, there comes the recent story
Of Kentucky man who celebrated the
131st anniversary Of his birth by taking
his first motor car ride.
When a report of this sort is In
vestigated 1t usually is found to lack
proof.
Some years ago, at q meeting Of the
Actuarial Society of America, its
president, John X. Gore, said: 1.-THE
well-known cases of individuals com
monty believed to have lived a century
and a quarter and even much longer
have not in any instance been verl-
fed"
There is usually temptation to exag.
gerate the age Of extremely old per-
sons; often they do 1t themselves. Not
very long ago man In England, inter-
ested in the study of human longevity.
offered $1,000 to any man or woman
living at the time who could prove
that he or she was 100 years old or
more. There were hundreds of claim
ants, but In no case was irrefragable
proof submitted.
In point of longevity. women are far
ahead of men, generally speaking.
They are more resistant to diseases
and they live longer. And yet women
are called the weaker SEX" So they
are, muscularly, but 1t is manifest thai
they are the stronger sex constitution
ally. They possess what biologists
term greater "vIabillty"-a superior
ability to survive.

MORGAN NOT ALWAYS HARD
Great Financier Proved He Had Kindly
Heart as Well as Keen
Business Mind.

There is no better test of mans
bigness than his way of handling sub
Ordinates who make mistakes.
J. Pierpont Morgan, the elder, had
clerk who, living beyond his means,
sought to make up the balance through
speculation; and, having failed, helped
himself to the firms money.
The culprit was called into Mr.. Nor
gan's private office.
He expected arrest. Instead he was
told to go home and tell his wife all
about 1t. "And tomorrow morning"
said Mr.. Morgan, "see me again"
The clerk obeyed, and Mr.. Morgan,
to the young fellows amazement,
handed him in bills the full amount Of
his peculatiOn - SIS, 400 - with: Put
that back where you took the other
from. 1t is loan from me, and OK
pect you to return 1t as soon as you
can. None Of the other clerks know
anything about 1t. Let me see If you
can't be man."
After many months the youngster
restored to Mr.. Morgan the last dollar
of the debt.
After counting the pile of bills on
his desk, to which he had added those
Just given him, Mr. Morgan observed !:
swell, my boy, it was bit harder
saving 1t than losing It. I'll warrant.
Now take 1t home and give 1t to your
wife. It's safe bet that she saved

NEW IDEA IN TRANSPORTATION
Trains to Slide on Runners, Separated
From Track Merely by Thin
Film Of Water.

Looking toward the transportation
facilities Of the future. an American
electrical experimenter believes that
the chief means Of travel will be trains
without wheels. running on single
tracks, and moving almost without
friction because they will slide on run
ners separated from the track by
thin film Of water. In Short the fact
that one plate Of glass Will glide prac-
tically without friction over another
II there is thin layer Of water be-
tween them will be applied and work.
ed out In running train. The
idea of a train without wheels Is suf1i-
GENTLY surprising, but, according to
the writer, Frenchman had invented
such a train just before the Franco
Prusslan war and the project was not
resumed afterward, although a later
French inventor made some important
improvements. The advantage over
modern transportation. If such trains
become practicable. is prophesied as
noiselessness of operation, equal carry
ing capacity, and about twice as much
speed. The idea looks visionary; but
after all It Is not wise to dlstrust pos
sibilities for that reason.

Lost Arma Without Pain

Our story of a man being blown
away, unhurt, by the explosion of a
bomb which he did not hear must seem
Incredible to many people. Here is
something like an analogy.
King Edward once brought together
at his dinner table Rustem Pasha, who
had had half his right hand and part
Of his arm torn off by a bear, and Sir
Edward Bradford, who had had his
left arm up to the elbow munched
away by tiger.
The two men compared notes.
Neither had felt the least twlnge Of
pain at the time. They imagined that
their intense desire to save their lives
dulled all other senses. - London

One Car to "a Persons.

There is motor vehicle In the
United States for every "a persons;
in Canada the proportion is probably
one to each so; In England, one to
200; in Denmark, one to 300, and
In France, Belgium, Holland, Swltzer-
land and Germany about one to every
400, says the Compressed Air Maya
zine, New York. In 1917 1t was esti-
mated that Italy had one car to each
1000 Of population; Portugal to each
1890, Spain to each 1900, Austria
Hungary, to each 1850, and Russia
to each 5000 In Australia there was
one for each 140 of population, and
in South America, as whole, one for
each 1870.
Many a minor city In the United
States has more cars than the whole
of China or Japan.

Rock Dust to Save Miners, Lives.

Perhaps the oldest, yet one of the
most effective, means for preventing
or, at all events, neutrality-suspicious.
ters In coal mines is the use of rock
dust.
A lot of 1t is placed on boards hung
by chains from the roofs of mine tun-
nels. Obviously in case Of an explos-
ion the boards will swing and the dust
will be thrown of.
Following an explosion q roaring
flame, let us say, is coming through
The tunnel. The air is filled with coal
dust Tor possibly with infammable
gas) to feed it. But 1t meets a cur
tain Of nOn-infammable rock dust (dis-
charged from the board shelves) and
is thereby stopped. Rock dust will
not burn under any provocation. Sus-
pended thickly in the air, 1t acts like
IN asbestos curtain. The flame can
not get through 1t.

Famous Art Collection.

The unique collection of Chinese
works of art made by the late Ii Hung
Chang, one-time viceroy of China,
which for years collectors tried vainly
to acquire, has finally been bought by
a Swedish syndicate. The purchase
price is understood to have been more
than million krone (nominally about
S2S0,000), but the intrinsic value Of
the collection is incalculable.
Ii Hung Chang died In 1901. He
had collection of works of art larg-
err than anything of Its kind In the
empire. 1t included numerous old
paintings, bronzes of great worth and
ancient ceramics. The bronzes date
from a time before Christ, and the
paintings were done from the tenth
to the twelfth centuries.

Rlsmarck'a Wine Thirst.

In his choice of drinks Bismarck
displayed a somewhat unpatriOtic
spirit. Talking to Mr.. John Booth in
1879, Bismarck confessed that when
stationed at st. Petersburg, he used to
drink two bottles of champagne a day.
He estimated that altogether he had
drunk 5000 bottles of champagne and
smoked 100000 cigars.
On another occasion Bismarck de-
clared that beer makes men stupid,
azy and useless. 1t is responsible for
the democratic nonsense spouted over
the tavern tables. A good rye whisky
Is very much better"
