D ECENT discussions concerning the

curious paragraph reprinted in the
Journal des Debats from its issue Of
August 30, 1906, when Napoleon I was
at the height of his power. 1t states
that there were two dials on the
principal building OF the Tuileries,
one counting the hours by twelve and
the other by ten. Taking advantage
of the need for repairs, the dial
divided into ten hours was destroyed,

N ORE than thirty-five years
N ago Frank G. Carpenter. a
frail little wisp of a sandy
haired man, below average
height and weighing less than 10
pounds. was given UP to die. He faced
the situation phdlosophically. 1t occurred
to him that he might feel foolish in
the next world if he didn't know
something about this one.
In the bank he had $4,000, the re-
suits Of slow saving out of a small
newspaper salary, but there was no
use keeping this IL he were going to
die. So he took his $4,000 and set
out for a trip to Europe, intending
to keep on going until his money or
vitality or both gave out. This trip
proved so interesting that he forgot
all about his health. but saw the pos
sibllit.es of writing travel letters
and sending them for simultaneous
publication to various newspapers
throughout the United States.
Since then the Frank G. Carpenter
travel letters have become famous
read wherever newspapers are cir
culated For thirty years certain
newspapers printed Carpenter
letter every Sunday.
Recently, after iay.off of two
or three years following the war.
Carpenter went abroad to resume
writing his weekly letters. This
made his twenty-seventh trip across
the Atlantic Yet he is less robust
than many persons who feel that
their health will not permit them
ever to leave home.
He has been six times to the orient,
twice around the world, and has in
terviewed nearly every king, prest-
dent or premier of the countries
visited. including . king in darkest
Africa, Material from his newspaper
letters has been incorporated into a
series of ten Carpenter geographical
readers for school use, and these have
reached a sale of more than four
million copies.
