"Napeleon's Sad Story of
Just Unearthed"
Life
The manuscript he dictated at St Helena
and repudiated, new identified as his,
with its secrets here first disclosed.
Who could possibly counterfeit Napeleon? Few can read the
manuscript without feeling the conviction settling upon them
that none ether than the great Corsican himself could be the
author.
The great warrior writes frankly of the strengths and weak
nesses of his character of his uneventful childhood, when, as he writes "I was only an obstinate and
inquisitive child." He sketches his early and unfortunate army experience, his days of despondency
and despair, his later and greater triumphs.

"The New Congress woman
Who Learned Frem Ledge"
An interview with Mrs. Winifred Masen Huck,
who, born and reared in a political atmosphere,
has just been elected by her Chicago neighbors
te occupy the seat made vacant by her father's
death. An acknowledged success as a wife and
mother, she is going te Washington te renew old
acquaintances and te "fight for peace."
Mayme Ober Peak
"The Metering Speed Fiend
As the Engineer Sees Him"
This is the "Reckless Age," according te the man
at the locomotive throttle. He tells you here
about the tee-prevalent type of auteist, who
seems te delight in flirting with death. That he
is but mild in his censure is frightfully borne out
by the terrible tell in human lives.

Philadelphia's Annual Tribute te Kins

Tribal Pemp and the North American
Indian Ceremonials Proving, Toe, That

en Vanity.
Your twentieth century mummer, pirouetting up
and down Bread street, in frigid weather, be
decked in the flimsiest of ballet skirts, is answer
ing te the same emotional law that prompted the
redskin of our plains te stick burning splinters
into his flesh and like it.
Same men, but new costumes, new pranks, new
jokes, the pageant of New Year's Day, viewed
by thousands along Bread street, will be an even
mere gorgeous expression of the love of display,
of the ornate, of the spectacular, which prompted
them last year te provide merriment for the
multitude.

"Hew Monaghan the Man-Maker
Salvages Seuls Frem the Underworld"
A character study of a Philadelphia Judge, who is convinced that punishing dupe
fiends is net the logical solution of the drug evil. What he has been doing in the
way of breaking up the dope ring is familiar news here is a story about the man.
"The Old Oaken Bucket
from which Philadelphia
Must Drink"
A cynic recently made the remark that if Phila
delphians didn't leek out they would drink up
the Delaware River before the bridge was com
pleted. Carlten E. Davis has given some stag
gering figures as te the extent of the present
Municipal water system, but still mere amazing
facts as te the necessities of the immediate
future.

panion who may well be proud of the success of his

melody in it.
