The theory that he had sprung from

that his twenty-times-g rea t-grandfather

of Abyssinia and other near-Darwinian
monstrOsities, were all regarded by
Sergeant John Burrows Of the marine

mind was never at rest.

How Many Presldents7

Percentages intrigue our fancy. SO
when we read that 90 per cent of
our presidents have been college men
we wonder how many that was. Twen-
;y-scven men have held the Office, and
on that basis 1856 were college men.
But Mr.. Harding may be included and
that would indicate that 1914 were col
lege men. The fractions grow worse !;
il looks as though someone were be-
inc insuted. There is Il further pos
Sibility; some folks reckon Grover
Cleveland as the twcnty-second and
the twenty-fourth president. This
duality of Mr.. Cleveland would make
Mr.. Harding the twenty-ninth Presi-
dent. It's Il strange thing that in so
important a matter, men cannot agree
on how many presidents the country
has had And when one comes to frac-
tional Presidents, the task of the per-
centage gatlerer proves hopeless.-Mil-
waukee Journal.

Wealth and Happi,1e ss,

Much of the anxiety and care of
these days is needless and springs
from an Oyeremphasis Of the amount
Of property needed for happiness. Ev-
erything in our country tends to slim
ulate men toward excessive ambition.
Our climate is rich in oxygen, and is
an irritant to work. The undevcloped
resources of our land appeal to Gu
pidty--even at a time when wo. begin
to realize that these treasures should
he. conserved for our descendants. Tie
stories of successful men are exploited
With endless variations in magazines
that teach the art of getting on in
stead of getting up. Little by little
young men feel that it is disgrace
10 live modestly. Avarice is 4 virus
in the blood. Undue ambition Is p0is-
onins the springs of cOntentment.
Youth has forgotten Cervantcs' warn
ings not ito fly too high toward the
