The Root Of All Evil

Is not money, but disease, and the root OF all
disease is rundown condition.
DR.. Parker's Tonetic Tablets go to the
root of the trouble by building you up from
the inside nerves to the outside skin
A rundown condition, an emaciated body,
a WORKOUT digestion, shattered nerves,
sleepless nights, aching limbs and head and
back, loss of appetite-these are the symp-
toms of a debilitated constitution, and if
not corrected in time will surely result in
something very serious, for disease is health
disregarded. Dr. Parker's Tonetic Tablets
is a package containing two valuable
medicines, DR.. Parker's Liveroid Tablets
and DR.. Parker's Tonetic Tablets. The
Liveroid Tablets stimulate and purify the
liver and bowels, and cleanse them of any
stagnant accumulations. They prepare the
system for the Tonetic Tablets. The Tone
tic Tablets make the blood rich and pure,
and thus drive away anaemia, pale and sal
low skin, bOils, pimples and other humOrs.
They strengthen and nOurish the nerves,
and upon the nerves depend the vigor of all
food, and good digestion, SO that the food
nourishes. They make new blood, new
tissue, new force. Thus the whole body is
built up, renewed. The weight goes up, the
glow Of health returns, the vital organs be-
come vigorous, the brain becomes clear.
Health, perfect health, waits on you in this
product Of the Goth century.

The hair is one of the greatest promoters of
beauty, and very few people understand the
proper care and treatment of it. This lack of
knowledge and consequent carelessness is the
cause of the great amount of badness, prema-
ture greyness and diseases of the scalp. Many
entirely neglect the hair, others give it too much
misdirected attention. If the hair glands, mus
cles fat cells and hair shaft are in healthy con-
dition the hair will grow abundantly. But nature
alone cannot be depended upon to promote the
health of the head and the proper functions OF
the scalp, they need stimulating and nutrition as
the other organs of the body do. And III my

Among the good histories which have
appeared during the past year is the
STORY of Athens" by Prof Howard
Crosby Butler The book does not pre-
tend to be an exhaustive historical study,
but IL aims at succinctness and clearness
in details. AS it is, it commends itself
as much to the schoolboy with his first
enthusiasm for Horace as to the scholar
and the tried student of Greek art and lit
erature. The volume is carefully planned.
Its 532 pages are divided into sixteen chap
ters, each setting forth some period in the
history of the city-"The Dusk of the
Gods" ATHENS of Pisistratus," 1.-The Age
of Gold and Ivory" Christian Athens"
Professor Butler is very fortunate in his
introduction. He first describes the bare
mountain landscape of Attica with it's
delicate vapory haze" and its ''myriads of
minute blossoms then he clearly sets
forth, by means of excellent drawings and
charts, the early structure of the city of
Athens. Myths and legends, with all their
intricate details, help to give the fine set
ting which establishes us naturally in
valuable in it's study of Grecian art and
literature in all its phases. There are, in
all. 1S2 illustrations, comprising maps,
charts cuts, photographs and original
drawings The early structure of the city.

ver." In the athens of Pisistratus
our attention is turned to architecture by
drawings of archaic pedimental sculpture
and cornices. The golden age is illus
trated with reproductions of all the phases
of the sculptor's art, and, also, views of
the different facades of the Parthenon the
Temple of Athena Nike, the Propylaea,
the Erechtheum and the Porch of the
Maiders. Throughout the remaining chap
tiers the art of Athens and the growth
and decay of the city itself are we'll devel-
oped through satisfactory drawings and
photographs. The style, if not simple is
clear and dramatic. The author spares no
establishment to add to the briliance of his
descriptions. His sentences are ornate, full
and well rounded He shows himself a
master of all the intricate details of his
subject, and without touching upon many
technicalities he makes mention of recent
discoveries in researches among the ruins

whole the climate is. for the tropics, a
tolerable one, and the island will soon be
rendered more healthy by foreign irriga-
ton, drainage and an improved system of
sanitation. The northern employees of the
Cuban company have as rule been free
from illness of any kind, Notwithstanding
their employment on railway construction
under conditions not always favorable TO
health. Unlike many of the West India
islands, Cuba is entirely free from poison
Gus reptiles and has fewer mosquitoes and
similar pests than any other southern re-
gions.
There are no obtainabe government
lands in Cuba; practically all of the lands
are held by individuals, and in the east
ern half of the island they are usually held
in large areas. No systematic land survey
has yet been made, and the large tracts
boundaries are difficult to define and trace;
land titles in the unoccupied and the new
ly-settled parts of Cuba are in many cases
defective and need strict investigation,
though the government has recently taken
steps toward the perfection of titles.
Not the least important and remarkable
feature in connection with this modern
Cuban railway enterprise is the combina-
ton of American and British interests aud
influences. The international infusion is
in happy consonance with similar existing
vested interests on the island. and has al
ready produced unmistakable evidence of
very promising future for Cuba, COM
mercially. politically. socially and gener-
ally.

and most OF those who. do not own horse
love and admire them. So books about the
morse appeal to a very large number OF
people One of the two books by Mr.. Ware
is entitled "First-hand Bits of Stable Lore.
The information which il contains Is right
ly called first hand because il comes from
thirty years active personal experience in
handling all kinds of horses, and IL covers
about every phase of horse and stable lore.
Successive chapters tell how TO judge OF

&c manage him, how to train him, etc.
There are chapters on horses mouths and
manners, on the foot and its treatment, on
the saddle horse, on riding for women and
children, on showing horses, etc. The book
contains a great variety of practical in
trated by many pictures from photographs
taken from life. LII is published by Little,

The other book by Mr.. Ware is of a some

treating respectively of horse nature,

some of the chapters in this book are on
nearly parallel lines with some in the other

contains large number of fine illustrations

For a Maiden Brave.

Chauncey c. Hotchkiss is known as the
author of 1.-The Strength Of the Weak"
I'm Defiance of the King and other spir-
tied and attractive novels based on noted
facts in the early history of our country
His latest story, For a Maiden Brave" is
full of adventure and romance connected
with the revolutionary period, and in spite
of the many novels whose basis
is that period holds the attention
from first to last. The scene
opens in New Haven, and is thence
transferred to Nassau, now called Long
island. to oyster bay. Great South bay
Jamaica. Brooklyn and other well-known
localities. Mr.. Hotchkiss is to be congratu-
lated on the fine discrimination shown in
avoiding detailed accounts of bloody emil
sodes of war and for his brief mention of
the sufferings OF American prisoners on the
fever-poisoned British ships. To discuss
them might be realistic. but the art of fic-
ton does not demand horrors, as too many
writer's of historical novels assume In
spite of plots and counter plots, attempts
at poisoning, confiscation and treachery.

America shows the attempt OF the Uni
tartan Church to bring religion into har-
mony with philosophy and science and to
reconcile Christianity with the modern
spirit. He also shows that the church.
though small. has a history of great signif-
canoe with reference to the future develop
ment of Christianity. Cnitaranism was
brought to America with the Pilgrims and
the Puritans. Its origin was found in the
individualism and rationasm Of the early
New Englanders of these bodies. It's devel-
opment has been coextenSive with the
growth of Congregationalism and Protest
antism. Autocratic and artstocratic I'M
pulses did not hinder long the motives and
spirit or Unltarian1Sm which were at work
in the name Of liberation, liberty and free
inquiry. Religious democracy and liberal
ism advanced and became conscious beliefs
IN the minds OF many leading New Eng
landers until those of like opinion awak-
ened to sense of UNCONVENTIONAL distinct
iveness. The author shows the successive
steps Of growth, tells OF the periods of con-
troversy and radicalism and the relations
of Unftarianism to educational reform and
TO literature In an ntertaining and in
structive manner. To-day Unitarians pre-
fer to have ii said that they promote a
movement rather than denomination
or sect" Their lack of organic unity and
their consequent weakness in carrying on
the individualism OF the bodies that make
up the church. unfit them for the co-ordi-
mated work necessary to growth. Associa-
tive action is what they need The author
says: The future of Unitarianism will de-
pend on its ability further to reconcile in
dividualism with associative action, the
spirit of free inquiry with the larger human
tradition It's advantage cannot be found
in the abandonment of Christianity, which
has been the source and sustaining power
of its life. but in the development of Chris
tan tradition by the processes OF modern
thought. The real promise of Unitarianism
is in Identifying itself with the altruistic
spirit of the age and in becoming the spir-
itual interpreter of the social aspirations of
mankind"

The Next stem I'm Evolution.

When a member of the clergy writes on
Evolution" the scientist knowingly winks
The clergyman's treatise is commonly a
mixture of ignorance and prejudice Not
withstanding the title. THE Next Step in
Evolution" DR.. Isaac Funk has presented
neither formal nor informal scientific or
philosophical discussion of evolution, but
a human document of considerable interest
He has touched evolution as a science so
lightly that il is pretty hard to tell lust
how much he knows of the subject But
he speaks with SO much humanness and
common sense that the book may well be
recommended both to clergymen and to
scientists. The fault of the work is that
1T is not logical. 1t argues from no we'll
defined proposition to any definite conclu-
sion. 1t is vague. The next step in evo-
luton Is itself vague. Christ living i'm us
seems to be the step sought. The following
quotations give pretty good idea of the
theme of the book:
ITO be Christian is not to get some
where, but to be something, to be recreated
in the image of the Father, the living God
after the pattern Christ JESUS The value
of this creation can be measured only by
the ages of conflict that it has taken to pro-
duce such a free individuality
I'm the lower Kingdoms Ii is the survival
of the fighter. in the highest a survival of
the fittest, the struggle for life for our
selves merging into a struggle for life for
others. Even among men in the earlier
days, to discover the greatest man. the
measuring string was placed around the
muscle. That was the age of Hercules
Then the time came when the measuring
string was placed around the head. That
was the age OF Bacon and Shakespeare. But
the time comes in the rapidly advancing
future when the measuring string will be
placed around the heart, and he who meas
ures most there will be most conformed to
the Master, for he is greatest who most
fully gives himself for Others"

Vienna and the Viennese.

All travellers agree that Vienna is one of
the most beautiful cities in Europe. as it is
also one of the most interesting in its his
tory and it's development from medieval
to modern times. It's attractions in art

pal features, it's history and its people. 1t

Some Verses.

"A Voice in the Wind" is new music from
Madison Cawein's Arcadian reed. Fresh.
impassioned, varied in key and theme as
are his new verses. the Kentucky poet
makes the appreciative reader again feel
grateful for his offerings. 1t is with poetry
as with pictorial art-one likes to see rep
resented what he himself knows: one likes
to revive emotions that he himself has felt,
especially if the emotions are pleasant. Mr..
Cawein helps his readers to feel
again many of the most joyous
emotions they have experienced. He
Is an active lover Of nature, pursuing
her in her various moods till he has ex-
pressed her most characteristic phases,
making the reader feel impressionistically
through poetry what has been felt in the
presence of nature herself. 1t is his sense
or RANT, virile life, now active, LOW Ian
guorous, but always wholesome, his sense
of life buoyantly joyful or healthily react-
ing from sorrow that makes Mr.. Cawcin
welcome when more ponderous. more dra
matte poets lie unread. Evening on the
Farm, Summer Noontide" and THE
Dead Day" are some of the best poems in
this collection. These titles remind one of
the names of pictures by the ''Hoosier
group" and indeed there is similarity or
temperament in the work of this poet and
these artists. Bright, colorful, atmospheric
ally subjective, their works are among the
best of their class. John p. Morton & Co.,

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?


Los Angeles Times.
A proposal, recently made, to put mail
boxes on street cars Is meeting with a
storm of disapproval from the labor unions.
A prominent representative of union labor
is quoted to the effect that the unions will
never consent to any such measure, the eff
feet of which would be to give the protec-
ton OF the federal courts and federal troops
to the running of a private business. On
this subject Case and Comment a monthly
publication devoted to legal topics, has the
following forceful and pertinent remarks:
What does this mean? The leaders of
these bodies have been strong in their re-
peated denials of sympathy with violence
in time of strike. While their good faith
has not been free from question, they have
in the past for the most part had the dis
erection TO avoid any open advocacy of law
lessness and violence. But the sole ground
of objection to the placing or mail boxes on
street cars Is the consequent barrier of fed
eral protection against violent obstruction
TO the operation of the cars. If labor
unions dare To take the ground that such
federal protection is hostile to them they
deliberately identify themselves with the
riots that are usually incident to strikes
The clearer-headed and wiser leaders of Ia
Dor must know that such a course is sui
cidal They have too often given a sneak
ing support and sympathy to the mob that
fought for the strike, but they have had
the grace to pretend at least that they
deprecated violence and crime. LII they
now fight against mail boxes on street cars
the issue is squarely joined. They come
out into the open as avowed meters of
mobs. On such an issue there can be but
one verdict. The people of the United
states will not tolerate open instruction
by labor unions or any other organization
1t Is well that the question is raised IL
VIII tend to clear the somewhat turbid con-
dition OF the public mind with respect to
the relation of labor unions and riots The
right of labor to organize and to seek all
legitimate means for the betterment of Ia

American liberty. But free nation will

Many people who are members of some
other religious denomination are Unitarian
I'm belief without knowing IL. 1t is given as
a reason for the lack OF growth of Uni
tarianism as a sect that other churches are
becoming broader and are gradually an
preaching Unitarian views of the spiritual
life. The practical phases OF Unitarianism
must commend themselves to one having
knowledge OF that religious body. George
