The Gurdjiefr system aims at an

most remarkable career or achieve—

Years ago Mr. Depew was inter-

, atgthe National Press Club in Wash-

' “Resolved, that a bald head may

‘ The baldheaded side or the de-
I'bnte was maintained by “Fiddling
»Bob" Taylor of Tennessee, and by
.F‘Nick” Longworth. of Ohio- the
«new speaker of the House. The
bearded side or the momentous dis-
passion was handled by the late
Senator Carter, of Montana. and
'P'chle Joe" Cannon.
The point oi! the story is that the

“Thus the too intensely thinkmg

The stablized costs at this type or

been less than four per cent-Abe
feeling is that the cost will advance
shortly. which urges millimeter-ere
to take advantage at the present
