Must Slow Down.

It is gratifying to know thai The
fight against consumption is win
ming Ultimately this dread diss
ease, like others that once were pre-
yalent, will almost cease to be. But,
unfortunately, what society gains
from science is often neutralized by
its own follies. Nervous and mental
diseases are on the increase simply
because society lives too high and
goes at too rapid a pace. Hurry
sensationalism, the craving for
excitement, the mad eagcrness for
wealth. and pleasures that violate
all rules for health are responsible
for the alarming increase in sudden
deaths, heart failure, nervous break
down and insanity. If society would
but cooperate with science it would
gain immensely in health and every
ether way. What we need to do is
TO put on the breaks and slow down
in our mad rush for wealth and sen,
sationalism and excitement. Let rs
return to the rational and sober ways
of our fathers, and we will live
longer and be happier. Some folks
think they must keep up with the
procession at any cost, and it is no,
much use to try to stop them, bu1
there are others who may heed ou'
admonition to slow down.

Wonder. of a J.psnes. Hamlet.

Perhaps the most astonishing presen- tation of Hamlet" ever seen on any stage was Japanese version given by native actors at Kobe. The Kobe Her aid describes 1t as ga wonderful mix ture of the beautiful and the gro tesque. With an Ophelia sometimes in graceful kimono and sometimes in western evening costume and a king who at one time appears fin the pic turesque costume of a Japanese noble man and at others dons a silk hat and a swallowtail coat, the effect is so kaleidoscopic that a spectator has the sensation of being perpetually trans ferred from one phase of civilization to another. The climax is reached in Hamlet himself. who in the earlier scenes wears the uniform of a student of the Imperial university. in the third act makes his appearance on q bicycle, clad in a bright blue cycling suit and striped stockings. and at the finish is seen fin conventional evening dress with a flower in his buttonhole-"
