Kdlson, the Wlsard of Went Orange,
has moved up another notch In the esti
mation of tho jmbllo following tho dls
covery by Louis, Knage. of ISM South th
street, that a particularly bright and
mystic star has been shining o' nights In
tho Kast.
Mr. Kasge heard that Mr. Edison was
responsllle for tho star-that he had In
vented It, in short, Und ho became curious
to know how. So ho wrote tho follow
ing letter to the Kvemno Lbdier:
"Will you klndlv tlllhllllh whMhrr nr
not Edison has Invented an artificial
star, which Is seen In the East at
nights? Will you also explain how It
has been qonttlvcd?"
Now that bright particular star bad
been labeled Jupiter by the scientist,
properly mapped and classified as a 16
star powor planet, which Is "some," In
the vernacular, power, and It was thought
thero was nothing more to find out about
It.
nut Mr. Kaege'a letter started an In
quiry, and In course of this it became
known that lovers whose thoughts can
not be said to be straying as their own
er sit upon tho benches of the park
had noticed an apparent expansion of
Jupiter. Pending tho result of the In
quiry at the laboratory of the "Wlrartl of

the nclentlsts.

It entered the sky about six weeks ago.
and will be there every evening until
midwinter. Four moons and the bands
arc easily discernible through even a
email glass. The scientists shrugged
their shoulders when asked about Edi
son's connection with the star,
"It is Jupiter," they said.
And, by Jupiter, It Is Jupiter. Thomas
A. Kdlson doesn't need to claim credit
for things ho had not done. Any one
will admit ho has accomplished several
Important things but read the letter from
his laboratory about the supposed arti
ficial star:
Wa would say that for many years
there has been a popular Impression
that Mr. Kdlson font up Into tho air
a light which has been known as the
"Kdlson Star." There Is not a word
of truth In It Some 25 or 26 years ago
a young newspaperman In a Joking
mood got this Idea Into the news
papers. It was only Intended In Jest,
but people took It seriously, and the
rumor dies hard

Don't Go About the Question of
Selecting a Private School the
Way this Mother Did
Mrs. L wanted to send a son and daughter to boarding school. She
began by selecting at random the names of a large number of ichools that we're
advertised in a certain magazine. Laboriously she wrote each one a letter
requesting literature. The catalogue arrived in due time, but to many of
them only confused her the more. v
To use her own word: "I didn't know where I waa at." In desperation
she came to Ledger Central. We asked her a few brief questions relative to
the ages of the boy and girl, the location she dir4 and the amount t mty
she wanted to pay; then we suggested TWO schools,
She investigated them, waa delighted, anJ registered the Vy and, girl
immediately. MORAL; Why do yeu worry over such a qut4ft wketi we
are willing and can do it so much better for you.
Ask Ledger Central to Find .
the Right School for You
