The October "Smart Set"

The October number of "The Smart
les and poems. "Moored," by Anna A
Rogers, is the title of the novelette, which
opens the issue. 1t is story full of pow
er and quiet humor, dealing with the
temptation which comes to the young
wife of naval officer while he is abroad
and she is "moored' at home. The tale
leaves remarkably vivid impression and
will attract wide attention.
Gouverneur Morris, in his short story
"The Lady of Moods has written as
striking piece of work as has recently
appeared in any magazine. It's wonder
full art stamps this young arthur as gen.
Jus. In wholly different vein is the
late Guy Wetmore Carryl's humorous
tale, "A Tide in the affairs of Stephen
Girdler" 1t is brimful of delightful
character drawing. In "The Two Ghosts
Richard LIE Gallienne is at his best as a
good. natured satirist and brilliant cpl
grammatist when Delos Drifted," a
story by Beatrix Demarest Lloyd, new
writer of great promise, is one of the
most notable in the number, though one
must remember the poetic beauty of iona
Gales "a Land Great Way Off," the
intense realism of Theodore Waters "The
Passing of Con Out" the keen analytical
power of Willard French's ''The Mastiff, -
a story of political life in Washin gton,
and the cleverness of Barry Pains "The
Rewards of Perseverance" the last and
perhaps the best in the series of detec-
tive stories which the distinguished Eng
lsh author has written exclusively for
The Smart Set"
Two essays, one by Agnes Repplier,
the other by F. J. Knight Adkin, add
charm to this knight; and there are ex-
cellent poems by such favorite verse
writer's as Joaquin Miller, Ernest Nc
Gaffey, Theodosia Garrison. Madeline
Bridges, P. Macarthur, Frank Lille Pol
lock, Thomas Walsh and Arthur Macy.
Variety is the distinguishing note of tn e
October 'Smart Set," and no two of it's
stories are in any way alike.

PARTIALLY AGREE
ON THE ARMY BILL
Conference Committee Tries Hard to
Bring the Houses Together.

WASHINGTON, d. c., March %
A partial agreement on the army APP
preparation bill will be reported to-
morrow. An agreement was reached
to retain the provisions for a military
secretary's department with an amend
ment that hereafter no officer at
the head of the department shall hold
a rank higher than brigadier general
Under the present plan the first mil
itary secretary will be Gen. F. G. Aims
worth. with the rank of major general.
The conferees disagreed on the in
crease in the signal corps, but agreed
with slight amendments on the IN
crease Of the engineer corps.
Another important matter on which
the conferees failed to get together
was the senate provision for the re-
tirement at the next higher rank or
field, line and staff officers, below the
grade of brigadier general, who served
during the Civil war and who have
been or hereafter may be retired.
The senate amendment giving to en-
listed men who have served in China,
Cuba, the Philippines, Guam, Alaska
and Panama credit for double time in
computing the length of service for
retirement was retained. All of the
senate amendments for the construc-
ton Of military wagon roads in Alaska
were disagreed to-
The principal amendment disagreed
to and on which the senate will prob
ably insist was the provision provid-
ing for the retirement at the next
highest rank of officers who served
during the Civil war.

monopoly has been established, as all
other complete nionopolies are, byscon-
trolling 4the supply of raw material.
If there were plenty of wood pulp, in

There is plenty of it across the line in

That tariff benefits no living human

another of the duties which the Repub-

Let the people look this issue square
ly in the face. We are not attacking
now the protective principle, because
that is not necessary. We are not say
ing whether measure of protection
should or should not be maintained.
We are declaring on the plainest evil
dence that In scores of specific cases,
as well as those we have mentioned.
which can be listed and where the
proof is plain and complete, the only
purpose served by the Dingley tariff
is to rob the people and enrich the

ton in this state and through it's po-
sition in the congressional districts.

terfered with, and that reciprocity
with Canada shall not be granted. Let
the people of Minnesota declare where
they stand on these two issues. and

The assertion made by a st. Paul
public school teacher that truancy is a
form of insanity would seem to in
dictate that Nordau has made at least
one convert in the Middle West. 1t is
to be regretted that the convert is a
member Of the city's teaching force.
To. discover the abnormal in what Is
merely normal is not difficult task,
provided one has firmly made up his
mind that 1t exists there. And it is
doubtless comforting to some people to
think that every Maynard tendency ex-
hibited by child or an adult is a
symptom of disease which demands
the attention Of the medical specialist,
since it lightens the burden of re-
sponsibility. We think, however, that
in declaring that truancy Is form
of insanity the public school teacher
has carried the disease theory to a
ridiculous extreme.
There was time-it was before
the publication of Degeneration =.
when the boy who did not play. truant
was considered abnormal. His desire
to escape from the hot schoolroom,
to fish and swim in the river, to live
in a cave and to go without his hat
was then considered an indication Of
healthy, normal life. But today we
look through yellow spectacles yellow
ishly and we see frightful disease
germs in the most innocent diversions.
The time will surely come when Whit.
tiers barefoot boy" will be held up
to the frightened youth Of the land, as
an example Of youthful degeneration
and as a warning to all small boys to
pick out in the future ancestors who
will provide them with normal minds
in normal bodies.
The result of this diseased view of
humanity Git is nothing less) is the
arousing of a morbid self conscious
ness in all who are persuaded to pay
any attention to it. And the credulous,
alas, people the land. Let us call every
wicked impulse a disease, If we prefer
the term. but let us continue to be-
lieve that the cure for it does not rest
with the medical specialist but with
ourselves. The average boy loves to
play truant, but the average boy can
correct his truant disposition without
having recourse to the specialist 1t
is tommyrot to assert the contrary.
