He dropped thousands of dollars in the Venture, but he'met a wealthy old duchess and-recouped-through her.

PROPOSE 360 DAYS TO CONSTITUTE YEAR Odd Five days to be Switch- ed in Conveniently and Used for Holidays. Berlin, Oct. 3 German scientists are planning to systematize and nor- malize the world. They want things all made equal, simple and smooth. The leaders of tho movement are 1 Prof. Witheim Ostwald, the Nobel prizewinner of 1909; Prof. Schmoller of Berlin, and Dr. Klaus Wagner, traveller; and others, They have plans for publishing all Easter to fall always on the same day of the same month, reforming the calendar, revolutionizing chronology, and turning arithmetic Inside out. Work By Hundreds. The day of the reform future will have a hundred hours, each divided fnto a hundred minutes, and each minute Into a hundred seconds. Tho exigencies of lif have already Introduced in practice this system of chronology; t remains only to recog- nize the fact, says Prof, Wagner. We do not count time by hours, but by quarter hours, of which there are nearly 100 in a day. When a man wants to state time roughly he states it by the quarter; appointments are made by the quar- ter and for practical purposes fifteen minutes Is the real time. Less than fifteen minutes does not count much, while half-an hour 5 too long a unit. The new hours, being a hundredth part of the day, will each contain fourteen and two-fifths minutes, which is practically a quarter of an hour. Instead of saying a quarter to one; people will simply say at forty-nine. New Dials. Needed. Prof. Wagner says people will get ttsed to that in a few days... The Practical obstacles are small. Every new clock will have adial dividwky new Clock will have a dial divided into 100 parts. The hour hand will go Tound the new clock only once a day. Old clocks can be easily adapted. They will need new dials, with double rows of figures and from fifty'to one hundred and the hour-hand will com- plete its circuit twice a day. Weeks that refuse to fit into the year -and meaningless, irregular months must also be radically recon- structed. The week of the future will have six days. It will begin on Monday, drop Saturday altogether and end with Sunday. There will be sixty Sundays in the year. Six Weeks in Month, The month must contain. six-weeks that is thirty-six days and there will be ten months in the year. In that case any date of the month will always fall on the same week day. This, will save tremendous trouble. This arrangement provides for only 360 days, The remining five will not count as days of the month or as days of the week. That would upset the symmetrical months and weeks. The odd five will be switched in wherever convenient and used for holidays, such as Christmas, Easter and the national holidays of the dif- ferent countries. Leap Year would not spoil the harmony, because Leap Year Day would not be February 29, but a dateless, intercalated day. With such a division of time the year would not any longer fall into quarters. Things that are now done quarterly would be done every two months, that is, every seventy-two days. Quarterly reports, quarterly meetings and so on would all be regulated on the twomonth basis, would be an advantage in itself, once the people got used to it. Professor Wagner, backed by all the systematizers, holds that the day would. be forced to begin at a natu- ral hour at 8 am, SPIRITUALISTS GATHER IN Dallas, Texas, Oct. 3. It Is doubt- ful if any city of the United States or of any other country has ever been the meeting place of such a large and representative gathering of spir- itualists as will be entertained in Dal- Jas during the next ten days. The occasion of the gathering Is the a: nual Convention of the National As- dooks in. standard sizes, compelting ALABAMA STATE FAIR OPENS.

In order that the masses in English centres of population may learn the art and ap- Ply the scheme to its full benefit an educational campaign is being ongan- ized by the medical: officers of health throughout the country.
