King Jn’ne*. however, was Influenced to give the apothecaries a separate charter, and . In reply to the protest of the tiro eers' guild he said' “Grocers are blit merchiuits; the business of the apothecary is a mystery”—which at that period meant art or profession. — o I Danger in Leg Craning The habit of throwing one let i over another should lie discouraged, according to a well known medical authority, who says that it is con tincive to palsy.

About 70 persons vanish daily I in New York City. Hut in the 25,000 persons who drop from sight yearly, only two per cent, or about 500. actually stay lost. The others are found or find themselves. About twice as many men disappear as women. These are interesting statistics, because the popular conception has been that more women disappear than men. The furore ' created in the press whenever a | pretty girl disappears has much to Ido with this impression. Such a i disappearance at once brings to the fore a romantic angle. There 'is the white slavery supposition. But as a matter of fact the majority of persons who do a disappearing act, lose themselvee on, purpose and for very good reasons. At present there is Justice Crater, of the New York Supreme Court? The latest news says he Is alive and has been a visitor in New ( York City since his disappearance. It is said that Judge Crater destroyed and cleared up his desk before he set out for the port of missing men. It is suggested there is some connection between the missing man and the now famous Ewald case. The City of New York has offered $5,000 reward to anyone, except police, sheriffs and deputy sheriffs in Manhattan, for information concerning the missing Justice. No one seems too anxious to seek the reward. In New York financial worries take front rank as a motivating cause why men leave home. Domestic troubles are back of inanv male disappearances. Commission Retort With a Kick Vacillating In I.is selection of a vocation, between one involving ' brain and the other brawn, a De i troit graduate asks the Press: j “Which 'ias the bett“i chance for | a long, healthy life —a blacksmith I or a college professor?" “A proses- j sor." informs the editor "He doesn't have to shoe mules—he only tf.o-hes them ’’ o Trick of the Tongue Tongue tied is defined as impeded j motion of the tongue due to short I ness of file fraenum, or its ndbe- i sion to the gums. When a child is ! said to be tongue-tied, recourse , must be then had to division of the fraenum. The expression is often | used In a fl rurative sense. A petson is said to be tongue-tied when lie is speechless from embarrass ment or fright. o How Town» Were Named Two towns In Missouri, lade | pendence and Liberty came by their names in an interesting wit) The sites on opposite sides of the Missouri river were settled by rival political groups from Kentucky, and It was at a time when the slogans were: “Clay anil Liberty,’’ ! and “Jackson and Independence.'' I Each band named Its settlement after its favorite candidates win cry. Up to Each Man Every man lias it in him to rise ■ above the stragglers and the drift | ere. to fight against the current In stead ot iicr'lng with the stream. True.

[of crime, usually theft or embezzle ! ment. is another major cause of flight. Walter S. Ward, son of the mil- , lionaire taker, had a good reason for vanishing. He had been acqu'ted in the slaying of Clarence Peters, a penniless sailor, whom he said was a member of a blackmail gang. Abram Cornelius, cashier of the bank in Englewood, N. J. disappeared in July 1915, with SIO,OOO of the depositors’ money in a black bag. At the same time his stenographer vanished. Under an assumed name, he went into business in Cheyenne. Wyo. He was eventually brought back East. After being listed among missing men for 15 years, he was recently , sentenced to prison in the State of New Jersey. There seems to have been no rea on for the disappearance of Dr. Charles B. Brancati, promini ent New Yok physician, who built ra home at a cost of $400,000. A few days after his disappearance his brothers recieved a letter signed by him asking them to turn ! over to the holder of the letter stocks worth $225,000. There was i a story of a love affair in which the noted physician was involved, and rumors of a mix-up in the famous Rothstein case. What really happened to Dr. Brancatti? Did he disappear or was he kidnaped? These questions may never be ' answered. The Brancati case may I become as celebrated a mystery as the case of Charley Ross, who vanished 56 years ago and furnished perhaps the most sensational mvstery in the history of Philadelphia. That Third Eye j New Zealand has a lizard, the tu 1 atara, which still possesses a third i eye, though this has no longer powier of vision. Millions of years ago man Is also said to have had three ' eyes, the third being in the buck jof his neck. It was perhaps useful to warn him of the approach of pterodactyls or other Hying drag ons. o Welcome Dieappearance A writer in a business magazine j says the "go-getter" type of sales- ; man nnd business man Is falling ! Into disrepute. And rightly. It ! was too hard on the type to which I the majority of us belong—the ( weak, defenseless, victimized Comei Takers.—Detroit Nows —o Ancient Belli There are tbJ bells in Lancashire, j England, that can, with certainly, | be assigned to a date earlier than | 1.V.1).
