the human life of today, which after all is the only form of life that we really know sex is impossible to ignore.
 The prejudice against the sex prob lem novel comes largely from a nlis- taken idea that it's scope is limited to stories of illicit attachments, unsavory divorce suits and kin6red subjects of morbid and abnormal interest. The sex problem novel, on the other hand. is as wide as humanity itself To the author who looks Upon life with the frank discernment of a realist, every story containing a man and a woman is a new and original sex problem. At all hours of the day, fin every path of life, the eternal question of sex will rise up, to ehange and compl5cate. to tempt Or to repeal. And the author who fails to recognize this fact and to make us feel the force of 1t Is false to the realities of life. The plain truth is that the naa- Jority of novels, instead of too much sex, fall to have enough.-Frederick Taber Cooper, in The Bookman.

Simpson had been a patron of his stock farm he made a social call, without an idea of talking trade, but before he finally left Mir. Simpson had offered him s4O.- O0o for Mckinney. MT. Gentry said he only had one price, and that was $50, ,Ob0-no less. So the matter ended at the time, only that MT. Simpson said that when he went to the worlds fair he would stop and see the horse upon his return and they would go to the Lexington races together. Mir. Simpson was here last week, spent some time with MT. Gentry, renewed his S4O,OOO offer for Mckinney, but without avail Tuesday the two men went to. Lexington, and there the ex- citement was on over Sweet Marie, a Mckinney colt. It was a great race, and a worlds record breaker, for $1O,- 900. Sweet Marie won, and then MT. Simpson offered S5O,o0O for the animal and it was accepted. The trade was closed.

SPANISH PRAISE OF FRENCH WIT.

Tn reply to the question, What is wit2' a chronicler of recent times an- swered: Tt is the genius of the French, At first sight the definition seems to be correct; but a little re- fection brings one to the conclusion that it is defective. In genius there IS ingenuity-that is to say, a certain amount of preparation and effort but wit sparks without labor. without preparation, wtthoUt art.
 In truth, wit is a malicious smile. It is thing which gushes out suddenly from a shock. From a contrast, from a fortuitous meeting. from an. image. it Is spark. a fiutter of wings, a rapid reflection, very light, very frivolous and very vapOrous- Wit is next to mo- thing, but now important it is, and what high place it~oosupies.
 It is more feared than satire and more dreaded than criticism. To criti- cism a man gives answers-he can put in a. defense; but he stands disarmed before wit. Its stings can be compared only to those of wasps. It comes in a sunbeam. in a breeze charged with the perfume of flowers. Propelled by it's lridescent wings. it stings and darts away. leaving no time for defense.

Story of His Sale by hr. Gentry to hr.
 Simpson.

E. T. Collins, who is well known among the horsemen of the valley, and came here from Indiana, was for nu- merous reasons interested in the re- cent sale of Mckinney, the famous trotting sire, and which incident has been widely published. In the first place, MT. Collins is a horseman, and. secondly. the Mckinney stock is well known here, several representatives of the family and the mother of Sweet Marie being in the Adams stables. Furthermore, the man who sold the horse, Henry B. Gentry, was a for mer neighbor and personal friend of MT. Collins when he lived in Indiana A little more local color is added by the fact that MT. Gentry is a brother of the Gentry whose trained animal show will exhibit here soon. The story of the Mckinney sale is told as fol- lows in the columns of the Telephone. published in Bloomington, Ind, the clipping being furnished by MT. Col lins:
 Today at 10 o'clock a check for fifty thousand dollars was handed Henry B. Gentry by William Simpson, of Cuba, New York, the purchase price for Mckinney, the world famous trot- ting sire. It was a. cash transaction. anu OIS OL AtAc 4dI6tSN III lIlS history Of horsefesh.

SEX PROBLEM NOVELS.

To the average Anglo Saxon reader the phrase sex problem novel is not merely a generic name for certain type of subtle and intimate studies of human life, but a term of active dis approval as we'll a convenient euphe- mism implying that book is at least of questionable morality, if not actually unspeakable. It gives expression 10 that sqmc spirit of prudish intolerance which objects to the nude in scripture and painting, and fosters the polite fiction that humanity is born, like Min erva, fully clad. Tn point of fact. how- ever, the problems of sex, which often form tragic depths beneath the sur face of apparently uneventful lives, can no more be 6isregarded by the sincere novelist than the true artist can ignore the pose of rounded limbs beneath the folds of the drapery that he paints.

rAE AeNosTIcIsM oF Jgsus.


 Rev. R. J. Campbell last month preached a sermon in the City Temple London. which suggests how great a change has come in the theology of some Christian teachers. He is listened to with greater eagerness, probably, than any other preacher in the metrop- oils. He told his hearers that Jesus was a child of his time, with a limited consciousness Of his mission and des- tiny; that he had no dual conscious ness, could not be at once finite ani infinite. "He never seems to have locked much further than his own gen eration.' Tn political history the know ledge Os Jesus appears to have been confined To his own people and to the influence of Rome upon them. :" He had not only anticipated the speedy end of the world, but that it would be Of a cataclysnlaI character" The application of the sermon to the young men present was that Jesus syunpath- iezd with them in their want of lmowl- edge Of ufe's mysteries. He was az nostis, just as you have to be. about some of the most obstrusive things of life" To face the mystery and meaning of life as Jesus faced them means that the things we know by being true and faithful enable us to wait the revelation of the rest without darkness or dread % The appeal to men to trust God with out knowing all Hds plans was sym pathetic and tender. But the point that especially impresses us is that a gen. eraticn ago H would have been inpos- sible for a Congregational minister to have chosen such theme for a sermon and to have Hved-speaAGng- -eeclesias- t1-ally.
