1 An old gentleman celebrates bis 105th birthday, not unusual In these days of long living, a’nd news papers distribute his views. Never give any advice, says he, and “don’t worry.” “I have always done what I wanted to do, and have never worried.” Never worry and you will live long. Worry poisons the mind and kills in the end. But the gentleman aged 105 is aged 105, and that ’s all you can say about him. To do what you want to do, and to worry may mean shorter life. It also may mean doing something worth while. To be a Harriman or a Hill, open up great territories, conquer a Sal ton sea, make a short cut across Salt Lake, help create the great northwest and die too young, is better than never worrying and liv ing to 105. Tbe regularly established air plane service between London hnd Berlin makes the 600-mile trip in four hours. Those machines, head ed this way, would cross the Atlan tic in 20 hours. That is something to interest this nation, which talks and spends, but makes no airplane progress. At spending we are very efficient. On airplane service since the war this nation has spent more than $400,000,000. How much of that went in waste and graft, do you think? For our $400,000,000 since the war, and about one thousand millions spent during the war, we have, according to official testi mony, just 20 airplanes fit to be of service in war. That makes our good machines average us about $70,000,000 each, which is not cheap. They build them in Europe for $1,800. If the country spends $400,000,000 more you may be sure that Calvin Cool idge will get some flying machines for the money. Why not buy, for a start, 1,000 machines abroad where they know how to make the kind that fly? That predicted 1925 drop did not visit the stock market yesterday. Almost everything went up, rail roads leading, cotton and wheat fol lowing. Call money used in specu lation dropped to 3 per cent, and all was serene. The lambs have not gained full headway yet. They are thinking, dear little ' things. Once they get really started there will be busy moments for stray bears. Elmer Schlesinger, part of the inside works of Chadbourne, Stanchfield & Levy,-' lawyers, with clients of the big,kind, says: “This is going to be such a boom ydar as nobody Jiving has ever seen.” He is a cool, not excitable young man. And he is probably right. Whatever else you <io, be careful not to sell short. “That way mad ness lies.” But don’t gamble. When the lawyer writes “hereto I set my hand and seal,” he refers to the aheient custom, as old as Egypt, of sealing documents with the print of the thumb. Three thou sand years before Christ thumb printr, were used for identification. The Chinese use fingerprints to identify armies of laborers after they are paid off. Mr. Bogren, expert of the navy, -has been making fingerprints of mummies nnd says that in all the thousands of years no two human beings have had fingerprints alike. What’s more important, no two have had brains alike, and that ac counts for change and progress. Sugar companies, oil and railroad companies, are organizing great mergers, bigger and bigger indus trial units are coming. In the end, perhaps single units will include entire industries. The big steel company could probably control the nation’s steel business tomorrow, except that Judge Gary is conserva tive. * No need to worry about it. The bigger the better, if the public gets its share of the savings. If the public is not intelligent enough to watch and regulate one big con cern, it won't be aide to watch and j control the secret inside deals of a dozen little concerns. Very expensive is the overhead in wasteful competition and the public pays the entire bill always. If 10 companies sent five milk wagons and five baker wagons to your block, you and others on the block would pay for the eight un necessary wagons. Henry Ford loaded 6,000 auto mobiles on his ship Oneida, in New York harbor yesterday and sent the load down to Jacksonville, New Orleans and Houston. Ford is a business man, with factories, mines, forests, water power, ships and money enough to buy Morgan & Ooi, that once imagined it could buy him. When will the first all metal Ford airplane appear? {Copyright, 1) Indian School Fugitive Found With Feet Frozen Nebraska City, Jan. 7.—Aaron HU derb rand. 14. an Indian lad who lives In Oklahoma, was found at the ale vator at Paul late yesterday with both fee*, frozen.

BETTER THAN CALOMEL Thousands Have Discovered Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets Are a Harmless Substitute Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets—the substitute for calomel—are a ipthl but sure laxative, and their effect on the llver'ls almost instantaneous. These little olive-colored tablets are the re sult of ]>r. Edwards’ determination not to treat liver and bowel coin plaints with calomel. Tho pleasant lilt#! tablets do the good that calomel does, but have no bad after effects. They don't injure the teeth like strong liquids or calomel. -They take bold and quickly correct It. Why cure the liver at the expense of the teeth? Calomel some times plavs havoc with the gums. So do strong liquids. It Is best not to take calomel. Let Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets take Its place. Headaches, "dullness" and that lazy feeling come from constipation and a disordered liver. Take Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets when you feel "logy" and "heavy.” T3iey ‘‘clear" clouded brain and "perk up" the spirits. 15c and 30c.
