cial. Scientific research shows Kid
ney Trouble to be the father OF so
many diseases that news of dlscov-
cry of a sure cure for it cannot fail

sarv to destroy some sixteen tons OF
powerful dynamite, and the explosives
sufficient to blow up town-were
taken to sea and placed below the wa

earthquake followed the explosion,
which was heard for miles around. A
waterspout shot into the air to a
height of 1000 feet, and fell back in
drizzling spray. simultaneously the
sea became a whirlpool of seething
water. as if agitated by hurricane.

His Washinqton Career.


Washington, Oct. 24.-"The Sage Of
Medicine Lodge" as Jerry Simpson
was called, was in many respects one
of the most unique characters adOrn-
ing the history of congress. He was
swept into the Fifty-second congress
by a wave of Kansas Populism, charg-
ed with the task of reforming the
whole government and living down
the only information his colleagues
bad of his personality-that he wore
no socks. The latter task he succeed
ed in accomplishing, in fact, although
he never quite lost the title, ''Sockless
Terry" His legislative accomplish
ment consisted in turning popular
Eastern sentiment regarding Popullsm
| from scorning ridicule to respectful
consideration during his six years Ill
congress. when he was swept out by
another Kansas wave. There was not
a question of congressional action
during that time of which Jerry Slmp-
son did not think and of which his
convictions were not strikingly and
entirely different from those of any
one else. His language and manner
of speech were quaint in the highest
degree. Jerry Simpson always tired
to make his adversaries look rldlcu
Ions always threw new light on every
subject, made personal fight On
every member of the house, and his
personal opponents declared never
changed a vote on any question O.
legislation. AS an entertainer and as
a personality the house came to nave
the warmest regard for him.

to read it was an excellent one To be
told on the authority of this popular
vote that Marie Corelli and Archibald
Gunter are among the leading fiction
makers of the day because they give us
the highest examples of that class of
literature is absurd, but a popular vote
which ranked these writers and others
like them high in the list only confirms
what the trade returns of the bookshelf
ers have already told us. The real
merit of such a selection depends en-
tirely on the special qualifications Of
the maker of the list. When that pub
lic-spirited citizen of the Empire and
pleasant writer best known to his read
ers as Sir John Lubbock compiled his
hundred best books his name was
sufficient guarantee, but it is obvious
that the enthusiastic admirers of Corel-
Ii literature would have to seek the ser
vices of another counsellor if their
tastes and preferences were to be salts
fed. The usual stamp of popular list,
we are told, reflects the reading habit
of women rather than of men, because
women do more idle reading than men,
and are more likely to engage in these
voting competitions. But even when
every allowance is made for all this
there is a good measure of encourage
ment to be found in the fact that most
of the lists so collected contain the
names of one or more of the admitted
best works of fiction and books that
represent the strongest and most
wholesome of the men and women who
have helped to build up our literature
of that order The inference to be
drawn is that when preference is given
to rubbish the range of choice is exer-
cised over a wide field, while in the
choice of sounder literature the prefer
ence is concentrated.
