lessness. or indications of unrest that would
threaten the security of the people of the
island. For a time there was some fric-
ton in ~disbanding the patriot troops. but
this passed away long ago. Assured of the
good faith of the administration, there is
little feeling of i'll will against the United
States.
Ii is due the administration that ii should
have credit for the hopeful conditions that
exist in Cuba to-day-conditions entirely
unknown in the island before. and which
there was no reason to expect when the
United States took charge. The representa-
tives of the United States in Cuba have
won the confidence of the Cubans: they
have established courts of justice: they
have made life and property reasonably
secure; they have put into operation a sys-
tenn of public education. and they have
done much to make the larger cities other
than the abodes of pestilence. This persist
emit work to establish law and order in
Cuba has gone forward so quietly that
Americans nave failed to note its success
and its benefcence.

Food for the Sick.

In times gone by better attention was
paid TO foods and their action upon the hu-
man system, but in the last few years the
eyes of the medical world nave begun TO
open to the great possibilities of food as
an active agent in causing and curing dis
ease. The scientist began a series of in
~vestigations TO ascertain food value and as
these Investigations progressed and the re-
suits they achieved were practically APP
piled, a new era dawned in the treatment
of disease and food began to be admins
tered, not only as a sustaining element TO
the body and its functions, but as a cura-
tive agent and an adjunct to the materia
medica, until now there is not a medical
text book written without diet being men,
toned In the treatment, and in every medi-
cal college the study of food is made part
of its course. A little work entitled Food
for the Sick and How TO Prepare It." by
DR.. Il. G. French, treats in an intelligent
and practical way the subjects of specific
foods and cooking for the sick. 1t is an
arrangement of debts for use In treat
ment Of diseases in general. In nervous dis
eases and after surgical operations. There
are quite a number OF tested receipts OBJ
tanned from physicians and trained nurses.
II is a good book for nurses and for all
who would make a study of diet. Louis

When Mr.. Stevenson was nominated for
Vice President in 1892 the Sentinel mistook
him for General Stevenson, of st. Louis,
who was then alive, and expatiated upon
his military record. 1t learned shortly
after that the Democratic candidate was
a copperhead during the war. Wiser now,
the Sentinel %applauds its candidate for
opposing the Know-nothing party when
he was scarcely of age. A soldier who
lives in Nebraska now recalls the circum-
stance that Lieutenant Jenkins, who lived
near Springfield, ILL.,, was sent home
wounded, with a colored boy as attendant.
Soon after the WOUNDED man arrived home
he was prosecuted by Mr.. Stevenson under
an old law which made 1t a felony to bring
a negro into the State of Illinois. AS part
of the jury were Knights of the Golden
Circle. the jury disagreed, and the officer
was put under bonds to wait a new trial.

The Bookman.

The Bookman.
1.-The Gentleman from Indiana" was a
very admirable story, but must be ranked
far below the less pretentious and shorter
book. The authors strength and fire and
pathos show better in the setting of the
eighteenth-century tale. And yet as We
think of Mr.. Tarkington's future career we
realize that 1.-The Gentleman from Indiana
is by far the more significant of the two.
This young man seems to have the dra-
matte instinct and touch 10 a greater de-
gree than any other American writer now
before the reading public. For instance,
could anything be more simple and yet
more convincing than the last few lines
of the chapter in which the White Caps
get Harkless? And how admirably he
has painted for us the rawness and DESC
lation of the stagnant Indiana town in
which the story is played out. On the
other hand, the book is very uneven. The
plot is loosely constructed, and the part
played by the heroine is unnatural and
overdrawn. 1.-The Gentleman from Indi-
ana is a promise rather than an achieve
ment. But it is a very good promise. and
after careful consideration We record, with
out hesitation and with complete conf
dence, our conviction that "A few years
hence Mr.. Booth Harrington will hold one
of the most enviable positions ever held by
an American novelist. In a word. we look
to him as the probable coming man."
