torianS, the ancientS didn't
lay so great stress on the per-
sonal appearance of their
great and popular ones as we latter
day mortals do.
We are told Marc ANTONY was
hideously ugly; nothing we have now
proves Caesar to be good looking:
Pompey is hideous judging from the
statues we see Of him, and so on.
Feminine charm consisted largely
of exquisite personal cleanliness: the
adornment of the body with Jewels
and dress was carried to extreme in
some of the better known women of
history, but the average woman
seemed to strike a happy medium,
to look at contemporaneous draw
ings, paintings and sculptures with
much interest, and nothing of deri-
sion
Who could possibly say that of the
photographs and paintings of the
women of the past dozen centuries?
If one reads closely the daily pa
pers and the current magazines
which appeal largely to the feminine
reader for support, one is amused,
then made thoughtful by the enor-
nous amount of space given to the
single detail of adornment and care
of the female body.
From hair invigorators to beauty
lotions consisting of everything pos
sible for a chemist to class under
that head, there is an extravaganza
that is appalling.
The articles are, on the whole,
well written: they show careful and
pains-taking research, but-Will they
add any to the real charm of the
woman who uses them?
Miss Ida Tarbell is a lady who has
more power Of analysis and more
patience for research and compila-
ton than the average woman, and
she has become an authority on
many Of the subjects she has hand
led.
In a recent magazine article Miss
Tarbell writes Of 1.-The Tragedy of
Old Age at Forty
Like many articles of the sort we
are cited to cases where men and
women, past their first youth, find it
SO difficult to make good,'' in so far
as getting satisfactory places are
COitCCl uCI,
Why should there be any tragedy
at forty years Of age for normal,
healthy men and women?
Is it the years that have made the
trag8dy-Or the sort Of lives which
the men and women have lived?
Isn't it a greater tragedy for the
women at twenty-five aud thirty to
spend hours Of time and hundreds of
dollars i'll applying and paying for
the beauty aids" which take up so
much room in the average maya
zine?
Isn't it tragedy to note the care
less Indifference with which the
young men regard the future, the
ignoring of the fact that old age
or middle-age must come, and that
the body then will pay the toll of
youthful folly?
Isn't it tragedy to see every dollar
made to keep up appearances
when those appearances are often as
false as counterfeit money?
The tragedy begins long before
forty, with those who have old age
thrust on them when they should be
i'll the flush Of maturity.
The child is father TO the man, we
have been assured for many years,
and it is as true now as ever. AS
we SOW, SO shall we reap. If we have
squandered our health in youth, by
forty we begin to paw for it.

NOT THE PARTY OF LINCOLN
Present Republican Organization Cam
not Consistently Lay Claim to
That Distinction.

In many of Mr.. R~ooseyelt's utter
ances of late he expresses a wish
or a purpose ito restore the Republic
a party to what it was under Lin
coin" 1t is strange that a historian
should use language so loosely.
There was no Republican party In
der Lincoln. The party that elected
him in 1860 was known in different
parts of the country under different
names. The party that reelected him
in 1854 was called the National Union
party. Until the surrender 1t Apo
mattoX hundreds of thousands Of
Democrats co-operated with the Lin
coin party. Many Of its greatest and
best leaders were Democrats and
nothing else. The Lincoln party was
a war party.
The Republican party as we know
it, an organization for tariffs and priv
ilege and spoils, came into existence
under Grant in 1868 and has been 60
ing from bad to worse most of the
time ever since. From 1897 until the
present day 1t has maintained itself
by selling laws to the tariff-protected
trusts, from which 1t has drawn it's
campaign funds.
1t is no more possible to restore the
party Of Lincoln than it is to restore
the Boston tea party or the Continen-
tai congress.

Necessary Precautions.

Thirty officials of the National Cash
Register company have been indicted
for violation of the antitrust act. The
Adams Express company has been in
dicted for collecting more than estab-
lished rates. Seven Cincinnati con-
Germs are indicted on charges of try
ing to secure rebates.
Are these unwilling transgressors''
or ''malefactors of more or less
wealth." Under the ordinary and
every day standards, we should say
that would be a question to be settled
by the evidence after full hearing.
But enunciations by a public mentor
indicate that before proceeding any
further the question must be asked
at Oyster Bay, and the answer thence
must settle whether the prosecution
is to go N or be abandoned in
stanter.
BY adopting this necessary C
ton, as Messrs. Gary and Frick did,
the danger of decisions on this point
being recalled by the people win be
averted. That is on the p~ostulate
that infallibility took up Its abode at
Oyster Bay on the return Of the famed
naturalist from Africa, as seems to be
admitted by the chief resident Of that
locality.
