GOOD THINGS IN THE
NOVEMBER LIPPINCOTT'S

THE Lady of the Spur" David
Potter's brilliant new novel, has met
with so many encomtums that it is
safe to say that "An Accidental Hon
eymoon," a complete novelette, by
this author, in the November Lippin-
colts, will find host of eager read
ers. Mr.. Potter's latest story is of
modern times, and the scenes are
laid in Maryland. His plot is re-
freshingly novel and delightfully."-
handled. The heroine is one of the
"fetchingest" little persons in the
realm of fiction. \The other charac-
tiers are also excellently drawn, each
standing out clear and distinct, even
the minor ones. The dialogue of the
story is remarkably good, and
through it all runs vein of delight
full humor-though the author can
be serious enough when he tries.

JUDGE AND CRIMINAL
A CRU EL SENTENCE

A Chicago Judge who recently pro-
nounced a sentence of life imprison-
ment on a confessed murderer dis
charged his duty in this fashion:
You are to receive a sterner
punishment than death. Your vic
tim died but once. You will die a
hundred times. You will be wiped
cat Of human knowledge. You win
not be permitted to lift a hand or
whisper a word; you will have no
right except the right to mere ex-
istence. In four of five years the
eternal solitude will begin to crush
in upon you like an iron weight. You
hear that street-car bell ringing in
the street as it passes now; you will
remember it in after years as the
most exquisite music; you can only
dream of it by day and by night, and
your dream will be torture unspeak-
able. In the summer you will guess
that there are cool rivers running
somewhere under green trees, and
you will long for the sight of even
a green leaf with an aching you new
er thought you could experience. In
a few weeks the holidays. with their
lights and festivities and happiness,
will he here, and many a Christmas
will roll over you in your iron cage
and high stone wall, but you will
never hear a child laugh again. The
law has taken its full and ample re-
venge upon you"
Not impossibly, the protection Of
society calls for the mans incarcera-
tion for the rest of his natural life,
and the sentence is in itself just.
But the gloating cruelty of the man
who delivered it causes one to ques-
ton whether the Judge, in his vio-
lation of the laws spirit, is so far
removed from the poor brute who
broke its letter.
The Judge who cannot distinguish
between revenge and justice is as
much out of place on the bench as
the man sentenced in this case might
be out of prison.-[Louisville Times.

NATIONS ARE
PROUD OF SKILL
In Prevention of Matern-
ity, Says Brady.
THE MEDICAL SOCIETY Chief
Scores Them for the Appall-
ing Present Growth of
Race Suicide.
THE TRUTH IN BURNING WORDS

Norfolk, Va, Oct. 2S.-Scoring
the professional schools for sending
out ignorant practitioners, assert
ing that the criminal code fosters
crime and declaring that Christian
women promote race suicide through
their selfishness, DR.. E. T. Brady, of
Arlington, President of the Medical
Society of Virginia, made a stirring
opening address, before the annual
convention of that body tonight.
More than 100 prominent physi-
clans who filled the convention audi
forum at the Monticello sat thrill
ed and astonished while DR.. Brady
assailed current social evils with a
burning flow of words.
The address came on the program
after Robert B. Tunstall had well
coined the doctors to Norfolk and DR..
George Tucker Harrison, of New
York, had made an eloquent reply.
"Squeamishness is never sincere
and sincerity is my only excuse"
said DR.. Brady. 81 am aware that l
am touching upon subjects unusual
in a public address. If the dose
seems drastic, remember that drastic
measures are needed to put us in
W orking condition.
81 am compelled to make but the
briefest mention of the evidences of
mans inhumanity to man. We must
give the situation frank recognition.
We are blindly following the fetch
of business at the expense of frater-
nifty.
Even the apathetic public is rec
ognizing the possibility of race sui
eide. There are exactly $50 cold
blooded, premeditated murders of
defenseless innocents for every 500
children brought into the world.
Think of It! And the large majority
of these horrible crimes are perpe-
trated by so-called Christian and in
telligent wives, who thus, from their
Wanted social height, give an exam
pie for a doctrine of convenience and
selfshness.
1.-The unwilling offspring of to-
day lives not because but in spite of
the guardian gantlet OF civilized
Christianity. Vanity, social aspira-
lions, fashions, ignorance, venereal
diseases and fads, all conspire against
the unborn. Not one young woman
in ten thousand enters matrimony
with any real understanding of its
duties and responsibilities.
Maternity, the highest human
possibility, is considered nowadays
an inconvenience. The up-to-date
matron prides herself upon her
knowledge of criminal prevention
rather than upon the proper culmi-
nation of the function that enables
and emphasizes the dignity Christ
was permitted to incarnate."

times when he is more than that.

from under his aged wife, and the
fall resulted in her death next day.
The following story comes from
