Noteworthy Forthcoming Discus
SionS.

In the forthcoming (AugusD number
of The Forum, there will be three strik-
ing articles treating of the three recent
startling manifestations of crime: the
Great Railroad Strike and its Causes;
the Assassination of CarnOt; and the
Police Revelations in New York. Dis.
cussions of these subjects are grouped
under the general title, "The Sentiment
tai Dealing with Crime and it's In
crease;' and following these is fairly
startling review of the recent worldwide
increase of crime, by Mr.. Henry Charles
Lee, of Philadelphia. These make one
of the most noteworthy groups Of strong
and timely articles that have ever ap-
peared in our periodical literature.
Another subject that will be treated in
the August Forum by two writer's is
Laboratory Mind-Study; the Beginning
of New Science" President G. Stanley
Hall explains why the new psychology,
or mind-study, is the necessary and en-
tirely revolutionary basis of the educa-
ton of the future; and Professor E. W.
Scripture, of Yale, sets forth in detail
the methods of experiment and training
followed in his own laboratory for mind
study.
In the August number OF The Forum
Bill appear an article showing How the
wills of Socialism will be Paid" by Mr..
Sylvester Baxter, in reply to the article
in recent number of The Forum on
"Who will Pay the Bills of Socialism,"
"The Pay of Preachers" of all the diff
ferent sects, and in every section of the
country is the subject of an article in
the forthcoming august, number of The
Forum, by H. X. Carroll, the superin-
tendenJ of the collection of church statis-
tics for the last census-an article that
shows the income of different grades of
preachers as compared with men of other
callings.

words: II started on my wheel at eight
o'clock a. M, riding about fifty miles

kept me back considerably. After pass

miles, the longest run ever made;

followed by his own illness from over

ment The prince is so well known in
New England that it should be unneces-
sary to repeat that he comes with certi-
fed credentials from the family of the
pastor, the Rev. L. r. Roberts of Cape
Mt. church, Africa, and from the Liber-
ian officials and his contemporary
princes. Also with letters of introduce
ton from pastors of churches in Boston,
Hartford, Springfield, Worcester, AL
bany, Concord IN. H. etc. He s the
author of two successful books, and the
financial agent of British and Ameri-
can School of Missions" West Central
Africa. This young prince is an Ethiopian
of Egyptian descent, and the unlnform-
ed would do we'll to distinguish between
him and the negro, which is the only
type of color that the average New Eng
lander seems to be familiar with. He
belongs to the Vel race, which possesses
language and literature of its own, and
is thoroughly versed in Arabic lore. He
returns to found schools, build mission
stations and place the government of his
kingdom on a good basis. The proceeds
of his lectures, above actual travelling
expenses, will be devoted to the eleva-
ton of his people in mission work. He
is consecrated to his life work, and is a
superior young man from every point OF
view.

A storv of senator cuIIom,

The following is to take the place of
the George Washington Ratchet story.
1t is sent in with the assurance that it
can be authenticated if Senator Cullom
denies it,:
When he was young man, before he
dreamed of listening Senates or looked
like Lincoln, he was farmer boy. One
day in August, when the blistering heat
was parching the crops and even dog
fennel hung its head, young Cullom was
on the porch of the farmhouse trying to
keep cool and kill flies. The boss of the
farm sat on the far end of the porch
doing. He was aroused by passing
neighbor, who called out to him that a
drove of hogs had broken into the water
mellon patch back of the barn. The
watermelon crop was about all that was
left. The old farmer had had some
trouble with his hogs before, and this
information aroused his religious nature
and shattered it.
'Shelby!" he roared at the young
man.
eyes, SIR" was the respectful reply.
"Take the shotgun and go down to
that melon patch and shoot every d
hog you find. I'm getting tired of this.
They have ruined everything on the
farm, and now they are into the melon
patch. Hurry up
The young man moved away and the
old man resumed his seat and again fell
asleep. The city reader probably needs
to be informed that in the country,
where there is no such thing as cold
storage, the killing of hog in August,
or at any other time in hot weather, is
like throwing away money. In those
days, particularly, there was no way of
curing pork in summer.
An hour later young Shelby returned
to the house, put up his gun and re-
sumed his place on the porch. The old
man, half asleep, opened one eye on him
and asked i'll lazy manner:
swell; kill 'em?"
"Killed seven md two got away" was
the equally quiet response.
"What" shrieked the old man, jump
ing from his chair and standing before
young Shelby in rage. you don't
mean to tell me that you killed seven of
them hogs-my Poland Chinas = this
time of year when they are useless? You
young sapheadp'
Eyes, SIR" responded young Shelby
with meek obedience that reminds one
of the Washington Ratchet story, II did
as you told me, sir; only l let two get
away"
The old man looked at him as he
would a curiosity. His rage quieted and
he sat down on the floor of the porch
and nursed his head for some time.
After awhile he called out, quietly:
"Shelby Mp
"Yes.sir," was the response.
"Come here. You say you killed seven
of them shoats in the melon patch-sev-
en-shot 'em-killed 'em dead9"
"Killed 'em dead" responded Shelby.
The old man looked at him, took off
his big straw hat, famed himself for a
moment, and then said, with some sol
emn elaboration:
"Well, Shelby NJ, 1 wish l may be
id if you amt the d-dest, most
obedientest, id obliging farm hand
that ever had around. If you keep on
mindin' this way you'll be President
some day."
THANK you, sir" replied Shelby. who
went in the house to hide his bushes.
The old man looked after him and said
| to himself:

mers safely passed. She speaks of her
infant as a child of so many summers.
Thousands of infants are every season
safely carried through the trying sum-
mer, kept well, and steadily gain in
weight and size by the use of lactated
food.
Mrs. L. L. Bartlett, 55S W. Sanborn
street, Winona, Mimi, writes: 81 nursed
our baby until he was four months old,
and my health was in such terrible
state that it threw him into iuflamma-
ton of the bowels of severe type. His
life was dispaired of. 1 had heard
about lactated food, and by the advice of
the attending physician, we purchased
some. The baby liked it from the first
and it agreed with him. He got well
and began to grow fat at once. At six
months of age he weighed % pounds.
He never had the slightest trouble with
teething, his teeth coming without our
knowledge until we could see them. On
the whole he is one of the happiest,
sweetest babies one would care to see"
No family should be without lactated
food from this time on.

What Is Beauty "Question Of a
Blind Mani"

Replied Aristotle. But Mrs. Sherwood
saws that it is dynamite" in her article
which opens the interesting pages of the
July Cosmopolitan. Beauty is always a
fascinating subject, and Mrs. Sherwood's
discussion is an especially interesting
one. That the July Cosmopolitan is a
midsummer number is shown in many
directions. Three short stories, includ-
ing 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 a
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 Sc
we're critics admit that with each sue
ceeding number there has been better
ment in the quality of articles and illus
trations, and the size has remained un-
changed, except the always growing adj
vertising pages. The magazine printed,
for the six months embraced in Volume
XVI, one million four hundred and
nineteen thousand copies, an entirely un-
approached record, and has doubled its
already large plant of presses and bind
ing machinery. The walls of the maya
Zines new home are rapidly rising at
Irvington-o n-the-Hudson. Artistically
designed by McKim, Mead & White, the
new building, with its eight great porti-
cos, will be 279 feet long by 70 feet wide,
and one of the most perfectly lighted
buildings in the world, having $50 large
windows, each nearly double the size of
the ordinary window opening.
