In 1967 an English publishing company was offered the chance to buy the diary of Italian dictator Mussolini for half a milllion dollars. The diary was sent to a forensic scientist. He found the diary had been written on paper containing 40% straw pulp. The diary had supposedly been written in 1925, but he knew that straw pulp was not made or used in Italy before 1937, twelve years later. The diary determined to be a forgery.

• The first cardboard was made in 1824. When people began shipping items in cardboard boxes, the manufacturers of wooden crates and barrels pressured railroads and insurance companies to refuse to handle or insure them, claiming an increased likelihood of damage. It wasn’t until 1914 that a law was passed prohibiting railroads from charging extra for handling goods packaged in cardboard. Today, 99% of all products are packaged in paper products, and about 50% of all paper used in GENERAL CONTRACTOR the U.S. is used for cardboard packaging.

Kids and Money: Make Saving Fun

● It was American industrialist Jean Paul Getty who made the following sage observation: “If you can count your money, you don’t have a billion dollars.” ● You’ve doubtless heard the term “bigwig” to refer to a person of importance, but you’ve probably never learned where the word originated. In the 18th century, King Louis XIV of France began wearing large wigs, and the fashion became a trend among the upper classes. At the time, wigs were made from human hair, which was very expensive to obtain; therefore, the larger the wig, the more hair was required and the more money the wearer had to spend to purchase it.

● Medieval times, it seems, were suspicious times. When nobles gathered for social events, each person would pour a little bit of wine from his or her own cup into the cups of others -- this was a way to ensure that no one was poisoning the drinks. The tradition continues today (with less suspicion, one would hope) when people clink glasses after toast.

• Marcel was a Frenchman who was employed as a production manager at an ink factory. An enterprising young man, he later started his own fountain pen company. But fountain pens were difficult to fill and they often leaked. So in 1950 he obtained the patent rights for the ballpoint pen from Laszlo Biro. He then improved it by inventing a disposable model, making it more reliable, and lowering the price to 29 cents.

• In 1970 a researcher at the 3M factory was trying to invent a super-strong adhesive. But, try as he did to correct it, his adhesive would stick to things but would pull right off again. He put the formula away for later and went back to working on finding a stronger glue. Four years later, a fellow scientist who sang in his church choir got annoyed because the pieces of paper he used to keep his place in the hymnal kept falling out.

SENIOR NEWS LINE by Matilda Charles © King Features Synd., Inc.

Gifts for Seniors Who Have Everything Seniors have acquired so much “stuff” over the years that we have nearly everything we need ... and more. If you’ve held off buying a gift for a senior in your life because you don’t know what to get someone who already has everything, here are a few gift ideas that would be most welcome. Coupons for cab rides, or gift certificates for restaurant meals, laundry services, auto detailing, spa day or hair salon services. Gift basket created especially for your seniors, such as gourmet food, cheese, jams or chocolate. Or consider a subscription to a quarterly or monthly gift club. Options range from fruit baskets or flowers to bacon, coffee and cigars. Pay for a year of cable TV, the daily newspaper, magazine subscription or Netflix. Two tickets to a play or other event where you’ll accompany your senior, or a pair of movie passes so your senior can take a friend. Pay for a senior’s lifelong learning class, either at the senior center or nearby university, and arrange for transportation. Put together a box of useful things, like stamps, note cards, address labels, batteries, razor blades and calendar with large print. Include a list of important phone numbers printed out in a large font that can be taped to the inside of a cupboard door. (Keep the file and make changes whenever your senior needs to update it.) Make single serving meals for the freezer. Don’t leave out your own participation and that of your children. A small coupon book full of services you can do year round, such as cleaning, painting a room, weeding the garden, raking leaves and checking expiration dates on food in the cupboard all will be appreciated. But really, what do seniors want most? The priceless gift of your time. Matilda Charles regrets that she cannot personally answer reader questions, but will incorporate them into her column whenever possible. Send email to columnreply2@ gmail.com.

in shelters come January. This being the case, the description of the best candidate to receive a puppy for Christmas looks something like: -- has very few friends -- has no travel plans -- received minimal party invitations -- loves freezing walks in the dead of night -- hates holiday decorations, doesn’t open the door to carolers, and refuses to buy or bake sweets of any kind, but especially those containing chocolate. Lucky pooch. All that considered, a puppy is still a personal choice. Not everyone wants one. Not everyone can take care of one. And those who want and are able to care for one will also want to be involved in the process of finding their perfect pup. This year, instead of giving an actual puppy,

why not give a puppy starter kit to someone you suspect might really love to have a dog? The kit could include a few books or videos on dog training, a soft chew toy, a blanket, a crate with good visibility, and a gift certificate for a trip to a shelter or rescue on you -- or any combination of the above! In the end, if it turns out that puppy person is actually a cat person, no harm done. Everything in the box wrapped with the big red bow is as it should be -- merchandise that can be returned. Woof!

YOUR

SOCIAL SECURITY by Tom Margenau

People Who Feel Cheated by Social Security There are two kinds of people in the world: those who jump out of bed each morning all brighteyed and bushy-tailed ready to take on the world, and those who get up all sullen and despondent waiting for the world to do them in. And with respect to the latter group and the subject matter of this column, I’m talking about folks who think the government in general, and Social Security in particular, is out to cheat them. Today’s sampling of emails comes from these people.

Q: The government is cheating me out of money ever y month, and I want to know how they are able to get away with it. I get my Social Security check usually around the 20th of each month. But I know many people who get their checks at the beginning of the month. That means ever y month I get cheated out of about two weeks worth of interest I could have earned had I received my Social Security on time like ever yone else. I’ve written my congressman and he says there is nothing he can do about it. If you ask me, it’s just another example of a corrupt and unresponsive government!

I am retired from the Navy and had to be hospitalized twice during my time in service due to my skin. Why it disappeared at age 40, I don’t know. Is it possible that I could have psoriatic arthritis?
