Born August 16, 1865

Archbishop Dougherty was born at
Ashland, Pa. August 16, 1865, and q
lew years later was taken by his
parents to their new home at Girards-
VlIie, In the same state. After careful
instruction in the local parcchial
school he was sent to the St. Charles
seminary, at Overlook, whore he con-
tinued ms studies for the priesthood.
50 greatly did he distinguish himself
by his scholarship that he was selected
from among his colleagues for the
honor of being sent to Rome to COM
plete his studies in the American col
lege there. In that institution he
again showed himself master student,
carrying off the highest honors of his
class ard being graduated a Doctor of
Divinity in 1890.
After graduation and ordination into
the priesthood he returrpd to the
United States and was appointed by
the late Archbishop Ryan. of Phila-
delphia, to be member Of the faculty
of the same st. Charles Geminary in
which he had been student There
he served for time as Professor of
Philosophy and then as Professor of
Dogmatic Theology. While thus en-
gagged he won the reputation of being
one of the most scholarly priests of
the Catholic church in this country
and was looked upon as certainly des-
tined for ecclesiastical distinction.
His career at Overlook ended in
1908, when he was chosen to be the first
American Bishop of the Catholic Church
in the Philippine Islands. On June Il
of that year he was consecrated Bishop
of the Diocese of Nueva Segovia. and
immediately started for that distant
field OF labor Five years later he was
transferred to the more important do
cese of Jaro. In the Philippines he
was confronted with q multiplicity of
problems and tasks, not only ecclesias-
ucal but also political, social, educa-
tlonal and economic, to all of which he
addressed himself with energy. He was
especially charged with the task of re-
building the seminaries of the Church
in those islands, which had fallen into
decay and disuse, and also of building
greatly successful. In much of his
work in the islands he was in more or
less cooperation with William H. Taft,
then Governor-G General.
Returns to States
After twelve years Of ard"ous labor,
which severely taxed his physical
strength in an unfamiliar climate, he
retained to the United States in 1915,
and on Decent + 6 of that year was
made Bishop Of Buffalo, N. Y, to sue
ceed the Right Rev. Charles Henry
Cotton, who had died in the preceding
year. The change from the Philip
pines to New York State was most
grateful ar he entered upon his new
duties with renewed zeal. But he was
not to remain long at Euffalo.
In February, 1918, the Most Rev.

OF Philadelphia, died, and in May fol

pointed to succeed him as the head Of

WEST ORANGE, N. j., Feb. IL
Thomas A. Edison walked to his Office
to-day with bouquet in his lapel that
Mrs. Edison had pinned there to re-
mind him that it was his birthday and
that he was seventy-four years old.
He punched the tins clock at $3.50,
wrote out his answers to newspaper
mems questions and hustled off to his
chemical laboratory.
He was in hurry, he said, because
he had TO get home for luncheon Of
the Edison Pioneers. He would be
back on the job in the afternoon, he
said, if Mrs. Edison would let him. It
would be ample time for retirement,
he said, when the doctor had to resort
to the use of oxygen to keep breath in
his body.
The interview given by Mr.. Edison
emphasized, as it always does, the doc
trine of work as cure-all. Mr.. Edi-
son believes that nothing much can go

Slack Tide in Food Prices.

In the important matter of the re-
tail prices of food the United States
appears to have reached the slack
between ebb and flow. The statisti-
cal bulletin Just issued by the labor
department shows that in the month
from July Is, 1921, to Aug. Is, 1921,
of the - articles on which monthly
prices are recorded q increased IN
price, ten articles decreased in price,
and for six articles, the prices re-
manned unchanged. All the changes
were small, and the preponderance Of
rising prices over falling prices was
only enough to make an increase OF
43 per cent in the cost of food to
the average family in August as com
pared with July. The continuance OF
this slightly upward tendency is prob
lematical, though not improbable. For
the year period Aug Is, 1920, to Aug.
Is, 1921, a cheerier tale is told, there
having been in that time decrease of
rs per cent in the cost of all articles
of food combined. But the figures
for the eight year period, Aug. ID,
1913, to Aug. Is, 1921, are less agree
able, showing as they do that we are
paying SO per cent more for our food
than we paid eight years ago.

Let us be thankful We have lower
prices and lighter taxes than the peo-
pie of any other country that took
