DR.. Simon Flexner pointed out. at
the recent meeting of the American
Association for the Advancement of
Science in Chicago. the fundamental
difference between the old and the
new methods of combating disease.
Sufficient progress has now been
made to show that there exists in the
human body, in consequence of the
reactions of foreign substances. par
ticularly parasitic heterogeneous, a
wide range of phenomena. some bene-
fetal and some injurious, which to-
gether constitute the effect of natural
disease. or of the efforts to overcome
1t. The business of the medical
science of the future is to unrayel
these complicated conditions, taking
advantage Of those which are desir-
able and removing those which are

All winter It has been hard times
for literary lights. There has been
absolutely nothing doing" with the
magazines for most writer's; the
monthlies were living on -refriger-
ated stun" and buying nothing. Last
week, however, brought out the fact
that the magazine with the reputation
for paying the highest rates in this
country has not only been relying on
fits accumulated store Of literature for
its weekly issues, but has even been
trying to sell OF scme Of its accumu-
lated verse at bargain rates. This
letter was received by the editor of
one Of the few magazines which has
been buying throughout the winter;
my dear -: As your probably
know from your own experience, We
editors accumulate a great deal OF
material, which after a while we find
to be unsuitable for our use. In look
ing over our accumulated material /
fnd a good deal of verse. Some years
ago we used much. but latterly have
found It impossible to give up much
space TO rhyme. For this reason l
am sending you proofs of some of the
things we now have on hand. thinking
that you may be interested, and that
perhaps you might care to buy some

saved up and had no intention OF taxi
ing such big chances with the money
he had set aside for a comfortable
and unworried old age. With that the
owner embarked himself and his fam
fly for Egypt, TO stay abroad until the
trouble was over, lest he be tempted
to reconsider his declination.
One Of the cheaper monthlies has
taken advantage Of this distress to
get hold Of some excellent stories.
Whenever the editors receive a manu-
script from a well known author they
realize that he had probably sent IL
to all the larger houses first, but It
had not been accepted for lack Of
funds. On receiving such story the
editor Of the cheap paper Immediately
writes to the author accepting the
story, but Offering about one-fOurth
OF what would be the regular market
price. and only half as much as even
the cheap magazine was used to pay
ing, but stating that "a check will be
sent Immediately on receipt OF your
letter of acceptance. In almost every
case the author has been taken by the
chance for real money on the spot
and has let his work go at far below
his regulation rates. AS result, the
cheap monthly has been getting ex
cellent fiction this winter at very rea
sonable rates.
Still, the clouds are clearing from
the literary sky. A magazine which
has actually not bought single storl

its pre-panic advertising, with the ex

this is not told abroad, there is no

she Unexpectedly received a letter

had not. and the young author finally

submitted her first novel to the edi-
