MOET and CHANDON, two competitors of Mr. Mumm who did much to bring the
price of champagne to within the reach of millionaires.

MOHAMMED, inventor of the harem, and the man who introduced mormonism
into Arabia. (See B. Young.) Also manufactured crescents, religion, and
made Mecca the mecca for everything. Early life spent in business. This
did not pay. He then married a widow and retired. Took up religion as a
hobby. Became a professional. Found the sword was mightier than his
kin. His salvation army was successful. His prisoners were given the
alternative of a finely tempered, beauti-fully inlaid damascus blade or
Islam. They always became fervently religious. Later M. embarked on
a marrying campaign with equal success. Publications: The Koran,
a treatise on everything. Ambition: The crescent on every flag.

MOLIERE, Jean B. P., a French author who wrote a few plays we do not
have to see alone.

MONROE, James, the founder of a doctrine, the practicability of which
nations desire to learn, and yet do not wish to make the test.

MORSE, Samuel G., an inventor who might have used his talents in other
lines had Marconi lived before his time.

MOSES, whose whereabouts in the dark has puzzled all generations. Born
in the bullrushes of Egypt. Entered politics as the son of Pharaoh's
daughter and the leader of the Ghetto. When M. waxed astute, after the
manner of his people, he discovered there were not sufficient shekels
for himself and countrymen in the land of Egypt. He pleaded and plagued
the king for permission to close the pawn shops and clothing stores. Now
in those days the children of Egypt were wont to patronize the bazaars
of the children of the Chosen, and Pharaoh was wroth within himself and
refused the passports. The brave rabbi closed the kosher meat stores and
took ship's leave. Adopting an original compass, he made forced marches
to the Red Sea. Here the synagogue was overtaken by Pharaoh and his
army. M. spilled the sea on them and marched on. From this time the
journey to the Promised Land was slow. Whether this was due to good
business or sore feet history does not relate. M. later climbed a
mountain and received the ten commandments. After breaking them he
returned to camp. He died before the journey was complete. Publications:
