pie of any other state. Every HANSEN

about siXty-5973 for men and 6O.SJ
for women, to be exact. Wisconsin Is
not far behind Kansas as n health re
sort, and Minnesota holds out an invIt'
ing hand.
Census experts say that If a record
as standard of comparison be de-
sired, 1t may be found In the figures
for females in the County Of West
Sussex, England, whose expectation of
life, the highest ever published official
ly by any country, was 63.05 years in
1011-12.
Among the cities named in the com
putation Pittsburgh comes at the foot,
of the list with 47.16 years as the ex-,
pectation of life for white males andi
5O.42 for white females.
As 51.55 Is the number of years givenA
as the average expectation of life for
white males in the large cities, 1t is
apparent that the census figures indi-
cate that the span of life in New York
city among white males is only 0O3
below the average for the large cities.
How the States Stand.
The expectation of life in years for
white residents of various states is
shown by the following table, accord

krnq soIomon's Magic Carpet.

Prince Ahmed's story of the magic
carpet of Tangu, which would trans
port any one who sat on it to the
place he wished to reach, has its
counterpart in the Koran. King Solo

same magic quality. 1t was made of
green silk, and on it was placed his
throne when he wished to travel.
Spirits stood on the left hand of the
king, and on his right stood men and
women. Then Solomon told the wind

The word cookie is said TO have been

from the resemblance between the

washington memorial started.
Ground has been broken for the
George Washington Masonic National
memorial, which is to be erected
on a hill overlooking the old town
of Alexandria, seven miles below
the national capital. The corner
stone of the memorial building is to
be laid in October. Members of the
Masonic order from all parts of the
United States and even from abroad
will participate in the exercises. This
new memorial to Washington will in
volve an outlay of more than S2000,-
600. The money is not all in hand, but
the George Washington Masonic Ma
tional Memorial association at Alex
andria believes that the entire amount
is within sight.
The movement which eliminated in
awarding the contracts for the me-
mortal was started some twelve years
ago by the Alexandria lodge No. %,
f. and A. NJ, which was lodge No. 80
in Washingtons time. The Masonic
order throughout the United States
took a keen interest in the enterprise
from the outset and within a short
time the national association under
whose auspices the memorial is to be
built was formed Contributions to the
fund have literally poured in during
the last two or three years.
To Stand on Arlington Heights.
The memorial will stand on a hill
on the northwestern outskirts o. Alex
andria and will command view of
large section of territory which
George Washington frequently trav-
ersed in passing back and forth be-
tween his home at Mt. Vernon and the
old city of Georgetown and the City
of Washington, which he founded. The
hill on which the memorial will stand
Is known as Arlington Ridge. 1t Is
continuation of ridge on which Ar
lington cemetery rests.
The national association has pur-
chased about fifteen acres of ground
surrounding the crest of the hill and
only few days ago a contract for the
laying out and Identification of the
grounds was awarded. The memorial
building itself will be approached by
broad walks and stone steps ascending
through seNel SuIttSSlNt
The building Will be 160 feet in width
by 23O feet In depth. These dimen-
sions do not include the steps, ter
races and approaches which 1t will
surmount. The memorial will be 200
feet high. In the center Of the build
ing there will be an atrium, 10 by 100
feet. In this memorial hall will be set
an imposing statue of Washington. 1t
will thus be seen that this Washington
memorial In a general way Is pat
termed after the Lincoln memorial
here, which was dedicated last spring.
The memorial hall will be fianked by
Ionic columns 40 feet wide and sur
rounding the hall will be number of
rooms for the use of the national
memorial association.
The entrance to the building will
not he unlike the entrance to the Lin
coin memorial. 1t will take the form
of n siX-column portico.
