What is Beauty. "Question Ofa Blind
Mani,

Man!,
Replied Aristotle. But Mrs. Sher-
wood says that it is dynamite in her
article which opens the interesting pages
Of the July CosMoPoLTAN. Beauty
is always a fascinating subject and
Mrs. Sherwood's Discussion is an espe-
cially interesting one. That the July
COSMOPOLITAN is midsummer num-
ber is shown in many direction. Three
short stories, including one of sport and
adventure, two travel articles, and other
light matter, make up 12S pages of
charming summer reading.
The July CosMoPoLITAN marks the
close Of the first year since the revolu-
tionary announcement was made that
the price Of that magazine, already low,
had been cut to one-half of three dollars
year. All sorts Of predictions have
come to be unfulflled during the year
it would be impossible to maintain
the rate-the quality would be lowered
the size would be decreased. But even
severe critics admit that with each sue
ceeding number there has been bet
terment in the quality of articles and
illustrations, and the size has remained
unchanged, except the always growing
advertising pages. The magazine print
ed, for the six months embraced in
Volume XVI, one million four hundred
and nineteen thousand copies, an EN-.
tirely unapproached record, and ha:
doubled its already large plant Of
presses and binding machinery. The
walls of the magazines new home are
rapidly rising at Irvington-on-the- Hud
son. Artistically designed by McKim
Mead & White, the new building, with
its eight great porticos, will be 279 #
long by 76 ft. wide, and one of the
most perfectly lighted buildings in the
world, having 100 large windows, eacf
nearly double the size of the ordinary
window opening.

.pillar of the Center of Population. !.

The limestone monument bearing the
title used as headline is located in De-
catur county, Ind. The center of the pop,
ulation in the United States, as located
by the census of 1890, Is in the above
named county, 20 miles east of Colum'
bus, one of the cities of Hoosierdom.
This is the second time in the history
of our country that the center Of popula-
ton has been indicated by marking 1t
with monument. The first was the
spot located by the census Of 1910. The
monument, which may still be seen,
is simply fiat stone imbedded in the
soil 40 miles northwest of Washington,
bearing these three words, Center Of

meant when he said in reference
to Bourke Cochran, in his state
ment printed on Tuesday. "If he
refuses to come before the COM
mittee the next time l meet him,
no matter where, will demand a
personal explanation"
This statement has generally
been accepted as a threat that Mr..
Cochran would be in personal dan
fer if he failed to make satisfacto-
ry explanation to Mr.. Croker.
81 don't mean anything Of the
Sort" declared Mr.. Croker. GAIL
that | intended to convey was that
when I do meet Mr.. Cochran !
shall ask him to explain why he
has attacked me, and to prove the
assertiC ms he has made. | shall in
this way give him a chance to set
himself right"
Mr.. Croker also said he should
not attend the meeting of the ex-
ecutive committe unless Mr.. Cock
ran was to be there. He'is not a
member. 81 do not confine my
charges to Cochran" confined Mr.
Croker. 81 invite all my enemies,

any charges they wish to make
against me, il they can. Let them
come out like men and say what
they have to say against me and
not attack me behind my back OF
