"AlI that glisters is not gold"
That is how Shakespeare has IL.
Not "all is not gold that glitters.
Whichever way you put it, the late
Nixon-Nierdlinge would now agree
with you. An amusement promoter
he was violently interested in
lovely little lady whose admirable
exterior won the title of Miss ST.
Louis in beauty contest. lie
married her, promising to make
her famous all over the world.
The little lady has just shot and
killed him at Nice, in France, tell
ing the police he accused her OF
Having an Italian lover and
showing cruel finger marks on her
throat.
French justice will attend to all
that. We remind young gentlemen,
.'aIl the beauty of the world, it's
but skin deep" and you never can
tell what you will find a little
deeper. A plain, old-fashioned
girl, with a white dress, a blue
sash and ribbon or hair comb
in her hair, is perhaps the safest
prospect, even though she may not
be Miss Anybody"
The president of the Pullman
company, d. A. Crawford, has ar
ranged for pullman car conductors
to earn extra money" They Will
get commissions on sales of upper
berths, sales of a whole section to
one traveller on favorable terms,
also an allowance for convincing
passengers that they want better
accommodations than those re-
served.
This will start craftsmanship
among pullman conductors, in
crease the incomes of many, and
perhaps promote similar profit
sharing elsewhere. 1t pays to give
men a cash interest i'll their work.
Encouraging news for those
studying the world problem Of can
Ger. Investigators at the Rookie
Teller Institute of Medical Re-
search discover that certain type
of cancer in hens contains its own
healing agent. Scientists hope for
a similar discovery in the human
form of the disease.
When this writer visited the
Rockefeller institute with John ID.
Rockefeller, Jr., some time ago to
see the famous Doctor Carrel per-
form an operation for removal of
tubercular tissue in the lung, scien-
lists had transplanted cancer in a
hen to make it grow. At that time
transplanting and growth had been
successful only once. On the 9TH
er hand, scores of white mice and
rats had transplanted cancer that
had grown bigger than the rest OF
the animals bodies.
The fight against cancer is Slow,
but sure, and will be victorious in
time.
A young Mexican genius, Au-
gusto Novaro, musician and mathe-
matician, has discovered new
harmony, based on mathematics.
His method is complicated, but
simpler than Einstein.
More important, to the world
and to Mexico, is the Mexican gov
ernment's welcome to large col
ony of Slavs, presumably Russians,
dissatisfied with the Soviet sys-
TEN of government. Lands will be
provided and Mexico will make
them prosperous, while they con-
tribute to Mexican prosperity.
Washington officials say the SOL
tiers' bonus money will soon be
spent for new goods, little of it
spent to pay old debts"
We believe that buying new goods
to the extent of billion dollars or
Whereabouts will do more than any
thing else could to stimulate pros
perity.
Paying off old debts would also
help.
However, the money belongs to
the soldiers, and is theirs to do
with as they please. What they do
Is their business.
Good news from Europe tells of
an increasing demand for automo-
biles, which will mean more EN-
ployment for workers in the United
States.
Makers and buyers of automo-
biles are interested in other news,
only rumor as yet, which says that
one of the big manufacturers will
deliver cars hereafter with no
charge for freight anywhere.
This will make a difference to
buyers and to manufacturers. The
latter make a considerable profit on
freight charges, running into mil
lions a year, because automobiles
are shipped knocked down, and
freight charges are approximately
what it would cost to ship car sit
ting up on all four wheels.
The War department announced
the allotment of $75,000,00 for river
and harbor work. The Missouri
river gets the largest ALLEGATION,
more than S6,000,0O0. This will put
a good many men to work.
In the last ten years, midas pop
ulation has increased thirty mil
lions, another serious responsibility
at the door of Great Britain. Since
