DIR. SYKES ON STEVENSON.
Critical Study OF the Author of DIR.
JekyIl and Mr.. Hyde"

DR.. Sykes lpctured Tuesday night il
Association Hall, Philadelphia. on
Stevenson as representative of the ro-
mantle school Of fiction. This was the
first of course of University Exten-
sion lectures on "'rhe Modern English
Novel;" designed to interpret the work
Of the Chief English noveliSts of the
Victorian era, from the point of view Of
their artistic methods. Stevcnsons own
life was full of romance. From his very
childhood up he had been romantic in
his tastes and pursuits.
".Ns student" the lecturer said, este
vcnsom consented to he called an idler,
INT aS Il StyliSt he confeSses his conStan,
zeal in pursuit of his trade. Il was al
ways intent upon my private end, which
was to learn to write. Stevenson could
have said Of himself aS Keats did, Il look
on fine phrases MS II lover Stevenson
has been in prose the master to all of
style graceful yet strenuous, supple and
alert. finished, musical and abiding"
| Continuing, the speaker said: AS n
novelist Stevenson belonged essentially TO
The school of romance, though in this de-
partment Of fiction his many ventures
prove his versatility. His work shows
increasing skill in the treatment Of chnr-
actcr, hut the setting, the spirit, even iii
his phycholical study, 'Dr. Jckyll and Mr.
| Hyde, is always romantic. Romance
WAS his forte-thc flower Of his whole
life childhood, readings, associations
ideals"
Dr. Sykes further said: ".\S a technic.
ian in the novel, Stevenson is more sue.
""ssfn with incident than with plot II
! is in the construction of the whole piot
that his weakness appears. He has io
story comparable in wealth Of incident
~ handling Of plot with Tvanhoe' or
'Wayrrlry.' Ills incidents are not eli
macteric."
The lantern illustrations were of espe-
cial interest in reproducing portraits of
Stevenson and views of his homes and
haumtS in Edinburgh. AT Colnton Mansr.

WHY AMERICAN WON EN-
BREAK DOWN Early

One of the chief factors i'm the early
breakdown of American wsmen is the
constant state of hurry they are always
in, says health Culture, The unneces-
sary expenditure Of nerve force and ten
sion in one day Is sufficient to do II
weeks work il rightly conserved. Ten
sion is putting force into muscle when
it has no need to be there Many women
in combing their hair screw their faces
into all sorts of contortions, lift the eye
brows, etc, causing deep lines to appear,
u waste Of nerve force. No wonder the
American woman becomes wrinkled,
cureworil, and old before her time. II
we only knew how to save our strength
and would adopt for our daily motto Il
frequent saying Of Augustus Caesar,
"Festina lente,' and learn to make
haste slowly" we would have indeed
learned great lesson and one lasting in
it's effect. We can do this by learning
To relax all tension and reserve our merry,
force, but TO how many women does thi.
seem necessary? Il have no time to tax,
M physical culture, | have SO much t.
do" Why. then, grow old before you
time and shorten the years in which I,

the busy woman who has the most nee,
of bodily training. Systematic and care
full exercise serves to preserve youth b.
removing all tension. Tension cause
waste and ohstructs the repair of tn
body. producing old age. FleXibility
m attribute Of youth. Can the workin
woman afford TO grow old? Is there
place in the busy, crowding life of todh
for one VINO is bent and worn by ag
and overwork? "1he back often age
under burdens not its own, and
thought may consume more nerve fore
than blow. Hurry and worry ar

II is as necessary. nay, far more nece'
snry to know how to sleep than 10 kno'
