Mr.. w. T. STEAD, the editor Of the Review
of Reviews. periodical which he claims
bodies forth the times. is a man Of unusual
ability and one distinguished for an enter
prising and aggressive spirit both as a philsn-
thropist--his efforts to purify the upper ranks
of England will be recalied-and as a Journal
ISL. the Pail Mall Gazette having ut one time
been under his control and having been in
creased in reputation by his management.
1t is as the originator Of the Review Of Re-
views and as It's present conductor that he
now holds prominent place in the consider
alton of the literary world. That Review is
run on a new principle and so far has won a
notable success.
Mr. Stead announces that lie will publish
in an early number a series Of ghost stories
related by persons f uudoubted yerecity and
respectfully who are prepared 70 swear that
they have associated with ghosts. II is re-
freshng t. ind in this age Of scepticism and
incredulty, man WHO has the spirit o. fifth
so strongly ceve oped IL him that he boldly
proclaims his confidence in the existence OF
spooks. and expresses q friendly interest in
their comfort and prosperity.
With some heat Mr.. Stead refers 10 those
who deride the possibility Of ghosts as the
amusement of fools. which the wise man Of
old compared to the craokiingo of thorns under
pot" If ghosts could subscribe 10 maya
zines we should say that the editor Of the
Review OF Reviews was making a strong bid
for the support Of the tenants of the other
world. As the case stands be must be nc
quilted of all interested motives. He has
simply a capGcious heart, being not only
lover Of men while they IRE alive. but also Of

PORTRAIT ROCK.

Sage's ravine, not without grandeur, has its
principal attractions in its beauty. Bash-Bish,
far from destitute of beauty, is yNt most re-
markable for grandeur. I would willingly
make the journey once month from New
York to see either of them. @tt a
Bsecher liked Lakeville so well he wanted
to buy site for a villa here for his summer
residence. The natives wouldn't sell him
a foot Of land. Have their pastures spoiled
to make summer resort? Not they. So
Mr.. Beecher moved up to Lenox, spot
without half the natural charm of Lake
vile, and twice as far from New York, and
made it famous and most Of it's landown-
ers rich. After Beecher have been many
others, individual and corporate, eager to
give Lakeville boom. Not foot of land
could they buy at any reasonable price. A
rich syndicate offered three times the valne
of the land Immediately about the lake.
agreed to construct handsome boulevard
along the shores, and to erect hotel to

several weeks trying to buy a few farms,
and finally departed in disgust without se-
curing an acre. ROBERT GRAVES.

the bells which strike most appealingly in
his ear. The valley is soft and velvety, the
hills rolling and strong, and north toward
the Berkshires are rugged, bald mount
aims. The utilitHrian finds farms and
dairies, as well as huge ore beds, from
which was taken the raw material for the
first iron manufactures in this country.
He who loves waterfalls and wild gorges
will find plenty of them, such as Indian
cave and Sage's ravine. Everywhere
through this region the music of the
mountain brook is to be heard, babbling
its sinuous way to the valley. In driving
along the roads-and for those who love
driving the roads are excellent and pict-
uresque-you ere no sooner out of earshot
of one singing stream than another trickles
you tune as you approach it.
There is history here, too, for those who
delight in backward perspectives. Indian
relics are plentiful. Not far from Lake
vile is an historic elm, scene of many
Indian council fires. On the south side of
the Little Gem lake, the residents will tell
you, General Montgomery, of Revolution
ary fame, had his country seat; and they
will tell you, moreover, of the magnifi-
cence Of the decaying mansion in which
Montgomery entertained his friends by the
score. But if you will investigate this
story, as did, you will learn that General
Montgomery never lived here at all. His
wife did visit at that house across the lake
while he was away to the wars.
The natives will also tell you that Ethan
Allen, of Ticonderoga fame, once lived in
Lakeville, and that here he made many
cannon for use by the Revolutionists, nota-
bly, those which formed the armament of
the good old ship Constitution. It is true
Allen once lived here. He was born few
miles distant, and after reaching manhood
Los Angeles herald., 1891-07-10

returned and built house and dug well
every we'll in New England has sort of
historic individuality, find-and received
from the state grant of land which the
local surveyor told me he had tried to locate,
but had failed, because the description ran
from "a pine tree at the edge of the lake
to a rock on the mountain side," ETC., but
it is certain that Ethan Allen did live here.
But what of the conservatism that
spoke of? Well, found the typical New
England conservative for whom l was
looking embalmed in rock near the top
of Toms Mount. Cut by nature on cor
ner of huge stone was human face as
characteristic of the representative freeman
of Lakeville as human chisel could have
made it-a conservative of the conserva-
tiveS, unchanging as eternity, as progress
i've as the mountain itself.
The Lakevillians of whom this rock
Observation-Disclosures t-as-the-sun citizen is a
type have lived here all their lives. Few
of them have been as far as New York,
three or four have visited Hartford and a
number have been to Litchfield, the county
seat. Their fathers and grandfathers and
great-grandfathers and great-great-great-
grandfathers were here before them. OF
the bulk of property around here there has
never been a transfer, it having been
handed down from one generation to
another ''all in the family"
But for the excessive conservatism of
these Lakevillians Lakeville might now be
famous and all its original proprietors
rich. Years ago Henry Ward Beecher
came here, looked up everything that was
lovely and loved it and wrote about it, as
was his wont, for he had whole range of
mountains in his head and many oceans in
his soul. Said Beecher of Lakeville and its
environs in his Star papers:
On either side, to the east and to the west
ever varying mountain forms frame the hor-
lion. There is constant; succession of hills
swelling into mountains, and of mountains
flowing down into hills. The hues of green in
trees in grasses, and in various harvests, are
endlessly contrasted. There are no forests so
beautiful as those made up of both evergreen
and deciduous trees

ravine with mad water at its bottom,

A Fragile Structure.

A system which chronic Indigestion has de-
pleted and rendered nervous and feeble, is In
topping into irretrievabie decay. Excessive Ss
irritability of temper, abnormal and causeless
anxiety, hypochrondria, hysteria and sleep
are some of the manifestations
OF nervousness. That grand invigorating ner-
vine, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, tranquilizes
by strengthening the nerves, accomplishing the
double result through the medium of renewed
digestion and assimilation. No tonic in exist
ence exhibits such thororghness, produces
such speedily appreciable effects as the Bitters.
1t is perfectly reliable sa eguard against ma
