FRANKLIN LED AN EASY LIFE
(From William Feather Magazine)

(From William Feather Magazine)
Benjamin Franklin was one Of those
rare men who lived so happily and so
abundantly wishing he might that the
reader of his life finds himself wishing
he might have been contemporary.
He was regarded as one of the wis
est members Of the first congress, yet
he seldom spoke and he spent a great
part Of his time fast asleep in his
chair.
He drank too much, he ate too
much; instead of exercising, he played
chess. He suffered the piercing pains
of govt. He confessed all his faults
with delightful humor and frank
ness.
At IS he wrote an article for his
brothers newspaper, describing the
night life Of Boston, and at 70 he was
still indulging in pleasant romances
with young and beautiful French
women. He missed nothing.
As he added years to his age and
dollars to his income he violated many
of Poor Richards precepts.

paid by the railways in Montana were
only go per cent of what they had to
pay in other states. He also directed
attention to the need of legislation
which would make investors in the
trust and the mining companies here
pay their just share of taxes. Re-
ferring to Mr.. Dixon's administration,
Mr.. Edwards said that if Mr.. Dixon
believed he could give good account
ing of his stewardship why does he
refuse to come out in the open and
discuss it with persons who have
taken an interest in the states affairs.
He told of how Mr.. Dixon had sent a
challenge to a debate through the
Montana Record-Herald but failed to
show up when the meeting was held.

THREE MOONRISES
EACH DAY Is RULE
ON PLANET MARS

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz.-The first, second,
or third moonrise on a given date
would be a possible method of mark
ing the passage of the hours for a
Marian, if there are Martians. For
Mars, the worlds neighbOr-planet,
which came closer to the earth last
Saturday night than it has for 100
years or will again until 1000 A. D.,
has a moon that circles the planet
thrice a day. And that isn't all. Mars
has another moon, an outer orb, that
travels slowly, as Martians would say,
although with great rapidity as COM
pared with our own lunar orb.
What must make the Marian day
one of intense interest is the fact
that Phobos, the closer moon, re-
wolves around the planet in z hours
and 80 minutes, or less than the span
of the Marian day. A day on Mars
is "a hours and 81 minutes long. So,
Phobos, swinging in its orbit only
$500 miles away from the surface
of the planet, appears to rise in the
west, not the east, as our moon does,
and sets in the east. 1t makes
little more than three complete cir
cults of the planet in the course of a
day.
DEMOS, the outer planet, revolving
at a distance of $4,000 miles away
from the center of Mars, makes its
monthly" revolution in about 80
hours. This is. slightly longer than
a Martian day, hence this moon is a
lay one and moves leisurely across the
sky, during a Marian night, losing
ground a little each evening as the
ealth's moon does and tagging a lit
tie behind the station of a Marian
observer. These two moons are GER
tainly very tiny when compared with
the earth's glorious companion, the
scientist declared.
Phobos, the inner moon, is probab-
ly only 10 to Is miles in diameter
DEMOS, the outer, is around 25 miles
across.
