THE SIMPLE LIFE
DODGING TAXATION AND WORK. MR RHODES DISHER’S SCHEME. Preen Association—By Telegraph—Copyright. LONDON, February 12. In July last Mr Rhodes Disher, a Fellow of the RByal Geographical Society, appealed for 1000 Britishers who were willing to work two hours daily, dress lightly, and eat plainly, to live the simple life, and to escape the heavy taxation, to accompany him to Samoa and the Marquesas Islands. The first instalment of Sir Disher’s party landed at Honolulu en route to the Marquesas Islands, where they will start the simple, taxless life, trading with neighbouring islands. Sir Disher, in an interview, dedared that all manner of people were coming to join the settlement. —A. and N.Z. Cable.
