The national policy OF creating
f,rcst reserves has been opposed 10
some quarters because the plan
and purpose Of the government
has not been fully understood.
The government has no de
sire to hold the fores, reserves
from the people other than to pre-
serve them against reckless waste.
The whole idea OF government
policy with reference to the forest
reserves is admirably summed up
10 the words Of Superintendent
Fem recently published where he
says "1he policy Of the govern.
ment Is TO preserve the forests In
the state Of highest continued pro-
duction for the benefit Of the PEG.
pie Of the state In which the re-
serve 10 situated

erintendent Feuu made Z special
trip for the organization Of the new
reserve and among other things
had conferences with the sheep
men and cattle men. He deter-
mined FIRST what number Of animals
the ranges would properly sustain
and then parcelled the sheep men
and cattle men 10 certain districts
Of the reservation and peace nov
reigns in the confines Of the Madi.

years there has been open warfare.
II creating and maintaining the
forest reserves the government has

Emerson Hough, Who Wrote "The Mississippi Bubble" Meets De-
 scendant of Hero of His Book.

Emerson Hough, who, by his strik ing characterization of John Law in "The Mississippi Bubble" has made that picturesque gentleman alive for all time, was surprised out of his usual calm by the appearance at his office door of a dignifed and impressive stranger who announced himself as John Law. As soon as MT. Hough real ized that the vision before him was ccrporeal and not the cheating fancy of his brain, he set out the easy chair and bade the welcome guest tell him the story of his life.
 John H. Law lives in Chicago and is the resident manager of a big insur- ance company He had read The Mississippi Bubble" and had called to pay his respects to the man who had given the world an honest picture of his great ancestor. MT. Hough learned that the family on coming to this country settled first in Georgia that one of it's members was a brigadier general in the confederate army, and that after the war the Laws moved to Cincinnati WuSAO OAA0 VI IHO DiOtHVAS Stlll 4iNCS III 8 country place which he calls Lauris- ton after the ancestral home in Scot land.

THE MYSTERY OF MEMORY.
Postal Clerks Wonderful Feat No Adequate Scientific Explana-
 ton of the WOnder-

The newspapers are telling of the re- narkable feat of a postal clerk who, in a civil service examination, did not make a single error in properly sorting 42.OO0 test postal cards, each represent ing a post ofdce in a certain territory as- signed. This was done at the rate Of B 1-2 cards a minute. Far more note worthy is the memory of an expert pi- ano player, who will play an entire sea sons concerts without note of printed music before him. His memory is su perfect. that hundreds of thousands of notes must be at the orderly and instant disposal of the will And this is com bined with a multiplicity of synehronouS recouections of timbre, tempo, expres- sion, etc.
 The mystery is at present past the limiting of any explanation, and this fact is as beautiful as it is appalling It shows us, declares American Medicine, how far we are from any real science oi > psychology. Physicians note the strange thrusting of disease among the mechanisms of memory, the morbid eff fects of some neoplasm or injury to parts of the convolutions of the brain where by some memories are lost temporarily or permanently, in part or completely while others are unaffected Even thi' I leaves us in amazement at the inscruta bIe complexity and methods of the celIu lar machine.
 But through these morbid injuries we catch tantalizing giimpses whicl some day, properly studied and followed up, may bring some psychologist physi
 elan to an unraveling of the mystery.

 MARRIAGE REFORMS.
Advocated by University Professor
 in Book Recently Issued.
PIans Include state Supervision of All Contracts and Liberal Divorce Lnyys-Evus in the Social
 Structure.

State supervision of all marriage contracts, uniform and liberal divorce laws, the abolition of the common law marriage and the education of the young in sex problems are a few of the reforms advocated in new book about to be issued at the University of Chicago,
 The work, in three large volumes, represents 12 years research work on the part of pr. George Elliot Howard, former head of the department of his- tory at the University of Nebraska, and until recently occupying a similar post at Leland Stanford, Jr., univer- sity. Prof Howard is the most recent addition to the staff of the lecture division of the University of Chicago.
 Our present dual system by which marriages may be solemnized by eith- CT civil officers or clergymen, is not the ideal plan" says Prof Howard Tt is too complex and is an obstacle in the way of the development of an effective system of matrimonial legis- lation. It is awkward and thoroughly Illogical to intrust the execution of the laws to two classes of persons; one civil officers created by the state, the other completely beyond such control. The license system is also uncertain and complex in many of its features.
 Radical reform in the administra- ton of matrimonial legislation is task for future legislators Every county should be divided into districts, for each of which registrar should be appointed to license, solemnize and register ali marriages civilly contract ed therein and to license, register and attend all religious celebrations of marriage.
 "The lawmaker cannot reach the root of the divorce evil. It is planted deeply in the social structure and is in a great measure due to false senti- ment regarding marriage and the fam fly, a sentiment which can only be removed by more rational education. Carefully drawn and uniform statutes can, however, render conditions favor able for the operation of this needed social reform. We need new education in the problems of sex and this in- struetion should be given to the young, not prudishly but frankly and perhaps while the child is still in high school
 "The fact that four of our states New York, Utah, California and Mis- sissippi-have liberated themselves by statutory enactments from the common law marriage within the, past ten years is of vast social import and from it reformers may take courage. Tn such legislation lies cur hope of be- ing able to free America from the evils of the common law marriage
 "The trouble in nutshell is that there is less care exercised in the mat ing of human beings than there is in the breeding of fat stock. By exercis- ing care in contracting unions we shall solve the so-called divorce problem. :"

MYSTERIOUS CALL.

The Little Rock police are working on a mysterious case that has so far bafled their att tempts. A stranger recently presented himself at the home of Mrs. Ruth Lane with a letter purporting to introduce him as a representative of the Asso- ciated Press.
 He desired to hear Mrs. Lane s story of the recent trouble with Dr. White, but she refused to give an account of the shooting, except in the presence of her at torney. What the mission of the stranger could have been is as puzzling as his identity.

DEATH THAT IS PAINLESS.
Many Tramps Who Take Their L"s' sleep on Burning Culm Hanks
 in PennsylVRnia-

Death comes in many forms in the anthracite mines of Pennsylvania, but onlv one form is painless and pleasant, and to only one the victims go uncon- eo,ouslv. It is the death of the burning c,lrn hank. says the New York Sun.
 Many times during the year is such . daath recorded when one of these araat culm banks is burning, The fire ,s not seen in the daytime, and at night + shines only with a faint glow through the layers of ashes which sep crate the live coals from the outer air.
 TO these burning banks tramps and o+har unfortunates. forced to spend U,eht in the open air, go whent the nights rrow chilly. The warm breath of the erIro lures them on with promise Of uarm bed for the night, and they lif down to sleep in the comfortable atmos' Mare of the bank and never open theil eyes again.
 The noxious gases emanating from thu honk wait over them so softly that the! are soon asleep, and in many cases the. naver awaken, being suffocated durini the night

Neglected Ten-Year-0IJ Lad Could Not Remember Ever Having Ne
 ceived the Tender Carfks.

I once made tour Of the almshouses of the state of New York describing them exactly as they were. Every emo- ton that can be awakened by sorrow was felt during the trip, writes Julius Chambers in the Reader Magazine The most pathetic incident occurred at the poorhouse of Essex county, located i'll the hills beyond Whallonsburg, near Lake Champlain I should say that the trip was made at the request of state commissioner of charities, who desired that the truth should be told.
 After inspecting the wards for the aged women and insane, walked across an open court, deep with mud to visit the children's quarters. While there, a small, red-faced, red-headed lad attract ed my notice. I patted him on the shoulder and asked his name He gave it promptly told me he was ten years old and that his father and mother were dead. l felt deeply touched by the child's words. Soon after I left the mis- erable shed in which these children were herded together and started to recross the yard. felt tug at my coat and found my little friend behind me. His eyes looked up into mine so pitifully that I asked
 What can do for you, my boy?"
 'I want you to kiss me"
 Certainly; but why?"
 q never was kissed in my life!"
 When I came to write that story for publication I developed it's full pathos. giving the name of the fatherless and motherless lad As a result he was adopted by wealthy family near Sara toga; he has been we'll raised, given a college education and is to-day heir to a fortune.

fOne or .ne sights of Atlantic City is -4he peculiarly shaped structure at the foot of Pennsylvania avenue, on the ocean side of the Boardwalk, says the i Minneapolis Tribune. It is the new weather station erected by the govern ment, and it's plan Is so odd that it is regarded as a most attractive curiosity by the countless number of visitors who flock to the seaside during the warm months.
 It is said to be the most queerly con- structed building ever erected by Uncle Sam. It has been popularly named the shell, on account of its likeness to the growth of the sea so commonly found on the sands
 This oval structure, formed of steel and galvanized iron, has been com Dleted at a cost of $3,000 It shows the colors so dear to the heart of an Amer ican having been painted in red, white and blue. The exterior and the fancy corrice are of blue. the interior is of white and the ribs are of red.
 The structure Is so conspicuous that 1t can be seen for many miles up and down the coast, and Is visible from a great distance at sea.
 A huge weather map. with glass front on which is traced daily the changes of the weather, the direction and velocity of the wind, the temperature. etc. as reported to the central weather bureau at Washington. and now telegraphed daily to the state observatory now To- cated at Atlantic City, has been in stalled
 Visitors will have the opportunity to observe the weather at all times when ever they are in the neighborhood of the ''shell" station,
