The "Taikinq Paper"

The Talking Paper"
DR.. Robert Wayne, herculean Of
stature, appeared in the doorway Of
his bungalow and stood toying mood.
ly with his Bible. In the outdoor
kitchen the Kahr cook and mess boys
were preparing breakfast-of fried
yams and coffee. Across the clearing,
at the Kafir village, not a black was
stirring, though it was now a half
hour since sun-up-a fact which
seemed to trouble Doctor Wayne.
The doctor was Joined now by his
man Friday-the man-of-allwork in
the missionary camp. This man, Hart,
had come all the way from California
with the Waynes, and for three years
had acted as their guide, philosopher,
friend and campmaster
There's something troubling you,
doctor" Hart now said. Whats ailin'
you, sir2"
Come aside-away from the house
Hart. I don't want Mrs. Wayne to
hear what I've got to say. Hart" he
continued, when they were we'll away
from the house, "Wambo is expecting
an attack from his old enemy, Amazu.
I'm sure of 1t. He has been expecting
the attack for several mornings past
at sunrise. At sun-up each morning
he and his men keep within their
huts. all armed. Their object is thus
to mislead Amazu's spies into believ-
ing that he, Wambo, can be taken by
surprise at sunrise. But, careful!
Here comes Mrs. Wayne. We must
not let her know"
Mrs. Wayne came from the bunga-
low, looking searchingly about. And
now when she joined the two men, she
asked:
Where is Edith"
"Here she comes!" cried Wayne, as
Edith and Bantu bounded into view,
coming from the jungle.
"They bring news" said Hart. See!
Bantu calls excitedly into the hut
OF Wambo, his father"
At the same time Chief Wambo ap-
preached. And as if his coming forth
conveyed the signal, the whole village
all the Kaf1rs Of both sexes
emerged from their huts in hordes and
set about the work of the day.
Little Edith ran to her parents.
"Oh, papa-mamma! Did you hear
what Bantu told his papa? He said:
'One horse-and many men-coming
this way!'"
Hart looked his alarm. He whis
pered to Doctor Wayne: "It is Amazu
coming to the attack"

veritable giant of Kafr, was not
sleeping, but wide awake, sitting with
his assegai in his hand and his shield
lying at his feet. The little black son
of Wambo did not understand why his
father had remained in his hut thus
for several mornings past, long after
sun-up. Very likely it troubled his
boyish mind not at all. Anyway, he
now darted into the jungle and pres

Kaflr warrior who even now was
watching the two children as they ran

crush them in the powerful coils of it's

as steel-had impaled the mighty
snake. and it did not squirm itself to
renewed freedom till long after the
children had passed.

Truths Eugenics Will Teach the World

| ed that right BUSINESS exalteth ma
ton not only in the spiritual, but also
in the most concrete sense.
To prove the reason why proper
mating and real marriage constitute
something more than love and in1tla-
tive: Granted that love be the nobliest
and greatest factor in true mar
riage, it must be supported by a
sound mind in a sound body to be eu-
genical in its conception of betterins
the human race.
Real love is never a question of the
senses, since the soul is its chief ad-
ministrator The spirituality of mar
riage is in seeking to make the issues
of the marriage as perfect as possible.
The fidelity of pure love is the Keystone
in the arch of it's making.
woman is Natures supreme in
strument of the future" When men
recognize this generally there Will be
a different attitude shown toward the
responsibilities of parenthood.
The foundation of domestic happl-
ness is faith in the virtue OF woman.
The foundation of political happiness
is in the integrity of man. The found
alton of all happiness, temporal and
eternal, is faith in the goodness, the
righteousness, the mercy and the love
of God.
When it is fully understood by
young men that licentious acts before
marriage result in awful physical and
mental blights upon children, when
they know, as eugenics will compel
them to know, that idiots. cripples and
demented offspring, are in the ratio Of
ninety-nine per cent, directly traceable
to such license. And when both men
and women know that by the full
understanding and use of prenatal
laws, children may be made what
ever the parents desire, new earth
will be given to us. And new race
of people to occupy it.
1t is to be questioned If one young
man lives who would willingly bring
into the world a deformed, diseased or
insane child if he knew he could pre-
vent it.
And these are the Truths Eugenics
will teach the world.
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1914-11-04
BY ELLA WHEELER WILCOX.

1t will be a great day for the world
when every clergyman or other man
empowered to perform the marriage
service requires a physicians certi-
ficate that both parties are physically
and mentally competent to undertake
the responsibilities of bringing child
rem into the world.
Such a day will eventually come.
For the Science of Eugenics, now
in its infancy, will dominate the in
tellectual world by and by, and an
entirely new order of things will exist.
The unworthy and unfit will be
sterilized; and only the fit will be per-
mitted to populate the world. Mothers
will be taught the great law of par
entail influence; and as Mary Dale has
said
Children will be taught the ele-
ments of heredity first through the
forms of the plant world; they Will
learn, in this manner, its principals" -"
< The products of the plant world, with
their grace and beauty, malforma-
tions or weaknesses, will be fit subjects
TO demonstrate the forms of heredity.
They will prove splendid ways and
! means to each children something of
parenthood, the right or wrong choice,
and the effect of either upon the de-
scendantS.
This system of teaching will be in
wise bands, Every effort viii be made
to render no blunt personal illusions;
step by step will the eugenic educa-
ton continue, until the mind of the
child has been made sufficiently
strong and intelligent to understand
what heredity means to the human
family The work of eugenic teachers
will certainly be of an interesting
character.
These teachings will lead to the pro-
founder education to be taught that
the position for every boy to strive
for, no matter whether he accepts it or
not, is for worthy and honorable
fatherland; for girls, splendid and
motherly motherhood. All other lines
of eduction will keep step with this
end in view. Thus will be demonstrat-

Railway Company Buys
Ten New Street Cars

The Harrisburg Railways Company
have purchased ten new trolley cars
of the pay-as-you-enter type, from the
J. c. Brill Company of Philadelphia.
Six of the cars are of the 1000" style
and four of the 400" type. The
former will be. placed in use on the
city lines and the latter on the subur-
ban ones.
Three of the cars have been de-
livered and the remainder are eX-
pected soon. No definite time has
been announced when the new cars
are to be placed in service as they
must be mounted on motors in this
city. Several of the other large cars
of the Railways company are being
remodeled and are now being built
similar to the pay-as-you-enter type.

that the Supreme Court of the United
States had dismissed the suit re-

General DUPONT said that he was
unable to say what his plans would
be in reference to building the road
until he had consulted his counsel
and found how far the dicision went.
He was told that the suit had been
dismissed because those interested
had failed to substitute another name
for that of Jehu Clendaniel, who had
died since the suit was brought. He

Tonight Amazu will eat meati"
Thus this warrior sealed the fate of
the two children. II Amazu ate meat
that night, 1t would mean that on the
morrow. he would take the warpath.
For the Kafir rarely eats meat except
when about to go forth to kill the
blacks OF another clan.
In their race through the Jungle, the
two children now reached a place of
great trees arching high overhead.
To this place Edith's father had given
the name "The Forest Cathedral"
Here DR.. Robert Wayne, at once an
M. D. and D. D., had erected g rude
cross. And here in this forest cathe-
dral the KaflrB of Wambo's village
came daily to listen to the teaching Of
the missionary and to practice trades
and useful arts and crafts that the
white man taught them,
As the children reached the Cross,
that stood on kind of terrace form
ing natural altar. Bantu cried:
"Listen!"
His trained ear detected certain
sounds far down the caravan trail to
the Sabaki river-sounds that alarmed
him. Bantu listened intently. clutch

"One horse!-and many menl-

nounced. Come, Missy Edith! We

Away they sped. retracing their
steps toward the Kafir settlement.

sons who were lined up waiting for
the late show.
AS the early returns began to indi-
cate a Republican landslide enthusi-
asm began to wax warm, and for one
night at least the popularity of the
tango, which is being exemplified in
several acts on the Orpheum's bill
this week, had to take back seat to
politics. The enthusiasm heightened
as later returns confirmed the early
predictions. The Kolonial Kids band,
which was enmassed in the theater,
was called out about midnight to
head Republican parade. Two COM
plete performances were given, the
performers and house employees hav-
ing luncheon amid shows in the
dressing room section of the theater.

the stealth of a panther, suddenly
paused in his tracks. He beheld
the child. yet he gave her little
heed. He noted with particular
ity. however, that all the cattle were
grazing unguarded in the clearing
just beyond the Kafir village, and
that now, at sunrise, all the Kaflrs
who owned the cattle still slept within
their huts. For this warrior belonged
to a tribe hostile to Wambo, who
ruled the sleeping kraal. Moreover.
this warrior was engaged in a recon-
noissance for his own chief, Amazu,
to whom he would presently return
and report that Wambo and his men
had become slothful and permitted
their cattle to remain unsentineled
after sun-up. For Chief Amazu COW
eted the cattle of the rich Wambo, and
wished to annex them as his own
property at an hour when there was
small chance Of having to fight as well
as to steal.
The little, golden-haired girl glanced
back into the bungalow of her father,
assuring herself that all within still
slept. Her eyes then wandered to the
Kafir huts of Chief Wambo and his
people. Not sign of life among the
blacks. Seemingly the only human
being ''up with the sun" in all that
settlement was Edith Wayne, the mis-.
sionary's daughter. She glided across

an unfair and unjust aspersion upon
the people of Oroville. 1t is true that
Oroville advertised an aeroplane fligh.

ut Spokane, the machine fell to the
ground and was wrecked. 1t was toe

Those having the celebration in hand
took every means to spread broadcast
the disappointing information that the
flight would not take place as adver-
tised, and no individual could have
been more disappointed than were the
citizens of Oroville. OrovIlc has
never attempted to attract a crowd
under false pretenses, and there was
absolutely no excuse for the News To
perpetrate this ungenerous and un-
neighborly slur.
