Many Tilings <
Louisville, Ky., April 26>?C? Lee

died last night after a short illjss.
Although an invalid .since he was
ie year old, Mr. Cook 'was known
iternationally for his achievements
i a scholar, an inventor and an artt.
He was an authority on law,
mguages, history and art.
Taken from school at seven beiuse
his parents believed he would
it live, Mr. Cook at eight had built
I
! a steam engine that worked. For
twelve yeard*he educated himself and
worked on the,ayer&ge of seventeen
hours a day at a lathe oFhis own design,
producing a product from which
he obtained money to continue his'
work and experiments., ?.r,,!
rfe invented a device tor locomotives
to prevent the escape of steam
from cylinders and the first engine
equipped with it' ran 175,000 miles
without repair. His metallic packing
was used on vessels of the emergency
fleet during the World War.
He built lathes for shells and for
heavy artillery under contracts for
France.
His oil paintings have been hung in

| pronjinent art center* of the country
and Europe.

I with muscular stagnation. When he
was fourteen he developed curvature
of the spine. Although beset by
theajft handicaps he . worked seventeen
hours a day continually, always in a
wheel chair. <
1 In a recent magazine interview he
declared his aim in life was to learn;
more to help others.

the civic bodies and luncheon clubs a
brand new sot of speakers.?Akron

Dog Formally Tried
for Stealing Chicken
loduy the satirists have plenty to
weur themselves out on, but one thltu
that does npt annoy them Is (lie trial
of dogs for committing the crimp ot
stealing chickens. Racine, the grea'
French poet and dramutlst, whom w *
loosely think of today us u. placid soui
living In a plucld uge. sutlrlzed such a
trial In his day.
He portrayed the cuse of a dog accused
of stealing and eating a capon
which hud been scheduled to adorn
somebody's dinner tublg. Racine paints
a ludicrous picture Ip his pluj, "Lea
I'laldeurs," which tneuns the attorneys,
literally* "pleaders," of the dog before
the Cdurt. The lawyers are us windy
as ever they should be In such a case,
-the Judge as doggedly intent on -Im*
partiality. The dog Is condemned to
the galleys, although what he would
do In the gulleys Is u subject of won
der. Perhaps he was sentenced to be
u mascot. P.ut the lawyer for the dog
hits upon the Idea of bringing before
the court the dog's sous and da ugh
feVs. a titter of puppies, "poor children
that would be rendered orphans.'
The Judge Is touched by this scene,
for he also has children. The out
come of the case Is not related. Proh
ably the dog was "simply knocked on
the head."?Kansas City Star.
RlngFinger*
For many centuries wedding ring"
were worn on the thumb, and even us
late as the reign of (Jeorge I It was
the rule for brides, although the wed
ding ring was placed on the tlnger
now customary, to remove It, after the
ceremony to the thumb. Ecclesiastical
admonitions, however, hud the effect
of bringing that somewhat queer cus
torn to an end.
It Is a pretty belief, but Incorrect,
that the fourth tlnger of the left hand
was chosen for the ring finger because
from that a vein ran directly to the
heart. The choice was for practical
reasons?fn save the ring from tin"?
necessary usage. Thnt also Is the cea
son' for the ring being worn on the
left hand.
, . Harvettin? Almond
? ?.- Rut few people realize the trouble
taken In the cultlvntloft of almonds.
They are the most Important crop of
the island of Majorca, where many
varieties are cultivated, and the In
Uustry Is so prosperous that old
olive trees die they are replaced by
almonds.
t When the almonds are almost ripe
they ?ra knocked off the branches by
long bamboo pole* and then picked up'
by women and children. The nuts are
separated from tiff, bucks after dr*
Ing. and the shells are then broken
by hund or muchtnery and the kernels
extracted.
