Conserving National Mentality.
From the Chicago Inter Ocean.


The necessity for proper supervision
over marriages and the prevention of the
physically or mentally infirm from mar
rying, and thus propagating a race of de-
fectives. We're emphasized at Z conference
of ai;enists and neuroloyists held under
the auspices of the Chicago Medical So
ciety. 1t is becoming daily more appar-
ent that the indiscrimnate marrying OF
the unit must be stopped. Every time
there Is a gathering Of scientific men
who discuss this subject the necessity %
proper restrictions upon the propa alton
OF humankind is more mistakenly urged.
What the alienists and neuro.ogists de-
sire is that there be proper. state laws
enacted. which will require medical
certificate as to the mental and physical
fitness of both parties to a marriage as
a prerequisite for the entering into the
marriage relation. The efforts OF Dean
Sumner toward proper regulation Of mar
rtage were applauded by the conference
and hailed as long step toward reduc-
ing the trend toward insanity. now arm
ingly great in this country. Much OF the
insanity which prevails is agreed b. The
scientists to be due TO heredity. and this

conference went on to record as favor

This experiment is now being tried I'm

for the belief that il will aid largely in

local market today, at the first meeting
Of the Washington Stock Exchange since
the adjournment last Thursday for the
Fourth of July holiday. Gas last week

new high record was established today

near future.
Trading through the remainder of the
list was fairly active, though no large

Much discussion obtained in local i1nan-
cial circles today over the news OF the
closing of the important First-Second Ma

allied First National Bank oI Mckees-
port, Pa. together with the reported i'm
pairment Of the great financial interests
OF ". s. Kuhn. president of the First

one of regret, because OF the possible ef-
feet on general confidence in business and

is little, If any. local capital invested in
any OF the Kuhn enterprises.

Autobiography in Novels.

Arnold Bennett. in the Metropolitan.
An inquiry into the career OF any first
class novelist invariably reveals that. his
novels are full Of autobiography. But as
a fact, every good novel contains far
more autobiography than any inquiry
could reveal. Episodes, moods, charac-
tiers Of autobiography can be detected
and traced to their origin by critical acu-
men. but the intimate autobiography that
runs through each page, vitalizing it, may
not be detected. In dealing with eacil
character in each episode the novelist
must for thousand convincing details
interrogate that part Of his own irdivid-
uality which corresponds to the particu-
lar character. The foundation of his
equipment lis universal sympathy. And
the result Of this Tor the cause-I don
know which) Is that in his own individ-
uaiity there is something Of everybody.
If he is a born novelist he is safe in ask
ing himself, when in doubt as to the be-
havior of a. given parsonage at given
point: Now what should l have done?'
And Incorporating the answer:+ And this
in practice is what he does. Good fiction is
autobiography dressed in the colors Of all
mankind:

Saving an Ancient Industry.

From the New York World.
Justice Scudder's decision that it is not
Islander to call a horse dealer IA skin"
establishes another bulwark for free
speech. AS the justice remarked in dis
missing the suit, Things like that are
nearly always said In the course of a
horse deal" They are. in fact. an es-
sential part OF the transaction. There
probably never was horse deal one
party to which did not think he had been
cheated, and to prevent by law the free
expression of his grievance in the trades
timc-honored terms Of invectiye would
amount to an interference with an ancient
American industry.
The decision In effect authorizes the
continuance Of horse dealing under its
traditional methods, whereas an adverse
ruling would have tended to hamper II
not destroy II. In thus dgnifying the Ian
guage OF horse trading the learned judge
does not, 1t is true, raise 1t to the level
of the language OF politics. it may still
be hazardous to call a dealer a crook
or liar. Apart from, l.. new legal status.
Skin" is defined in the dictionaries as
"a cheat fraud, or sharper" On
horse dealers lips Ike scamp" and
'loafer' on the lips of a mayor. it has
lost Its original force from frequent and
prOmiscuOus use and become a technical
trade term.

Reincarnation Of the Goat.

The reappearance of the Harcm goat

physical collision with a gentleman bear
ing the mirth provoking name of F.nne-
gan-"off again, on again." as the Tyr

humorists of the Danbury News. Detroit
