PREVENTION AND CURE.

DR.. E. Bouckman, one of the most
prominent psychologists in this coun-
try, has an interview in the New York
Tribune. He says that people are con-
tinually grasping after straws and
seeking for cures for diseases when
there is no cure for any of them
All that medicines car DO is TO help
nature rid itself of the germs that in
fest the system. when you attempt
to kill bacteria by swallowing drugs
you are dealing with an impossibility," "
says the doctor. who likewise main
tains that too much time is given to
the mad hunt for panaceas in proper
ton to the time given to the work of
prevention. This is true in yellow fever,
in typhoid and in a dozen .maladies
which are preventable, but difficult to
conquer. In relation to tuberculosis,
he recommends the precautions which
this city and a few others have adopt
ed. He says the streets of New York
City and almost every other city in the
union are perfect hotbeds of tubercu-
losis. Splitting ordinances should be
made and enforced.
We have such an ordinance in this
city, and its enforcement should be the
duty of every citizen and official.

ONLY ONE WAY TO FIGHT.

Senator Fred Dubois made a forecast
the other day of the coming national
campaign and defined the issues in sub
stance as follows: He holds that the
Republicans viii be for the extreme
gold standard, expansion and free
trade, depending upon an internal
revenue act for revenue, and using the
Dingley schedule for the benefit of
trusts and monopolies; that the Demo-
Gratis will be for bimetalism, a tariff
for revenue with incidental protection,
anti-expansion and against the war
revenue tax, but favoring an income
tax and the election Of senators by di-
rect vote of the people.
The Tintic Miner, one of those Re-
publican newspapers of the west that
renowned the Hanna organization in
1896 and evinces no disposition to crawl
back, calls attention TO this forecast
and also to the comments of an ex-
champion of silver thereon, and says:
while admitting the hostility of the
Republican party TO bimetallism, the
Tribune insists upon sounding its old
battle cry anything to beat the Demo-
ELdlSs dIn QtNldIES intl II II uStlESS
20 make another stand for silver in
this country until conditions change"
And the Tintic paper which has al
ways been an avowed admirer of the
Salt Lake paper to which it refers, is
surprised at the lightning change of
the latter. 1t asks: Does the Tribune
believe that if every loyal friend of
bimetallism would follow its example,
and go over TO the party which it ad-
mits is for the extreme gold standard,
as the Tribune has, that these condi-
tons would ever changer"
Speaking Of the money power and its
futile attempts to control the Chicago
convention il 1896 and it's less hopeful
anxiety to try again, the Miner asks:
Can that power best be decreased by
following the Tribune's course, and
fighting under its banner, or by joining
the allied forces of bimetallism, and
fighting to the last ditch against it?
Die anyone ever hear of an enemy be-
ing defeated by the Tribune's course?"
Hardly ever.

other theatre in any age has ever
echoed to such words, uttered before
such en- audience,
The pillared temples are less i'm
mortal than the men whose memory
makes the soil of Athens sacred ground.
1t was the age of PericleS, so called
from the gifted statesman who for a
time swayed Athenian affairs and de-
voted the resources of the state to the
adornment of the city. AS contempor-
aries, Lysias the orator; Herodotus,
the father of history; Hippocrates the
father of medicine; Melton, the astrono-
mer; Apollodorus, ZeuXis and Parrhas-
ius, the painters; Anaxagorus and So
crates, the philosophers. walked the
streets side by side. Close upon them
pressed Thucydides and XenOphon. In
the gardens of the academy Plato
wrought out the teachings of his
master. A little later on Apelles, the
painter, and PraXiteles, the sculptor,
divinified the human form. At the fec
of these sages mankind still sits in
reverent pupilage. What was then
achieved by man repaid all the thou
sand years of national training and re-
manned the permanent, priceless posses
sion of the race.

THE GOSPEL OF HOPE.

One OF the most notable contributions
to recent literature is the series of Rob-
ert LOUIS Stevenson's personal letters,
now being published in Scribner's Mag
azine. The July installment is espec-
tally valuable for evidence of courage
under adverse circumstances.
The letters show how brave spirit
can rise above sickness. WEAKNESS. pain
OF the most dispiriting sort. Confined to
his bed, harassed by comparative pow
erty, broken in body as he was, the
great author writes as cheerily as
though he possessed everything
men desire. With more or less
mild girding at fate he still breaches
the great gospel of hope. Looking death
in the eye, he laughs at the Grim Mon
ster and defies him.
During this period he did some of his
best work. When he found he had
given a publisher a story that was be-
low his highest standard, he refused to
take the full price agreed upon, though
he was in sore need of money. He had
fixed figure for his best and would
take nothing more than he thought he
had earned.
Such a life as is shown forth in these
letters is of itself a beacon for the
guidance OF every downcast soul. In
these days of pessimism and disbelief
in the better side of humanity, it shines
like a bright light in a dark place. If
Stevenson had never written anything
but his letters, he would still be en-
titled to a place with all the great lead
ers of men.

He Swore he would have revenge
Those three invasions of Greece, COM
monty called the Persian wars, were
! the result.
In many books on Greece an early
chapter is devoted to what is called the
/ heroic age. Therein are recounted the
! deeds of Hercules and other half-fabu-
| lous chiefs. together with legends like
the tale of the Argonautic expedition
| and of the Trojan war. But the real
| heroic age had not yet begun. 1t was
ushered in when Athens and Sparta,
almost single-handed, withstood Per-
| STA, then the mightieSt empire in ex-
| istence. Though Athens had outgrown
the confines of the Acropolis and COW
cred an area of four or five square
miles around that central rock, yet it
was surpassed in population and wealth
| by many a Persian town.. The battles
then fought at desperate odds have
become watchwords for freedom in
every land. The Athenians and Spar
tans preferred death to slavery. The
world has since beheld no sublimer
spectacle than the unequal conflict in
which they engaged.
In gratitude for their unexampled
victory, the Greeks consecrated one
tenth of the spoil to the gods They
fused a quantity of metals and formed
from them a colossal triple serpent
with three gaping heads. which they
SCI up in the oracle of Delphi. On the
coils they inscribed the names of the
cities which had fought at Plataea-
This serpent was placed by Constan-
tine in $50 a. D. in the center of his
hippodrome at Constantinople. Though
sadly broken and disfigured by time.
the trophy is still erect on the pedestal
where he placed it. In the Ottoman
capital on that memorable monument
i have traced. the letters, some half
effaced and some distinct as if traced
today, which form the names of those
immortal cities to whose heroism the
victory was due.
When the Athenians returned home
ward only ashes and ruins marked the
site of their former capital. Yet,
through their energy and affection, it
speedily arose statelier than before.
Themistocles surrounded it with walls,
and with other walls inclosed and de-
Tended the long passage which con-
nected it with it's harbors, Piraeus and
Munychia. But the pinnacle of great
ness which he had attained made him
dizzy, and excited enemies against
him on every hand. 1t is sad to mar
rate that this greatest hero of the Per-
sian wars was justly or unjustly ac-
cused of treason, and could save his
life only by taking refuge at the court
of the Persian king. He died in exile,
but his remains were brought back for
fit interment near Athens Cut in the
rocks beneath the waves, and opposite
Salamis, the scene of his exploits is an
excavation in shape like a tomb, which
to this day the Greeks point out as the
grave OF Themistocles.
In no fewer words can be told the
story of those Persian wars which
placed upon the brow of Athens the
garland of military renown. Memoir
