his story "The Man Who Forgot" In this title
he suggests another satire on modern tendencies
to forget that the world is DID, that this govern
ment is not a mere STRIPPING, and that we still
measure the present and future by the experiences
of the past. We have been so busy with our own
affairs that we have accepted many Performers"
on their own self-glorifcation, just as we take
patent medicines that are advertised to cure all
the ills of the body There lot of people
whose memories are even less than FIVE years old
in all matters except their own private business.
and they fall victims to the fakir who assumes to
possess the wisdom of the ages, just as did the
good people in this story who initiated those who
participated in the Roman holidays at the Coliseum
where the tickets to the performances were fur
nished without cost to swell the multitude and
demonstrate by numbers that the public approved
the contests in the between the hated Chris
tans and the savage lions.
The author of this novel has, with the exag-
gcrated picture of church people performing like
Paris mob, but with expenses paid, and his sug
gestvc title pointed moral against hysteria and
short memories in government affairs. Many
readers may overlook the moral, but it is there.

Huerta in the United States.

Nictorano Huerta the Indian strongest ruler
of Mexico since Diaz, arrived in New York from
Europe on Monday, just when affairs in the re-
public, from which he was practically driven be-
cause of the aid extended to his enemies by the
government of the United States, are in the most
chaotic condition that has existed since Madero
was slain Fighting is incessant, human life and
property never have been less secure, and as a
result hundreds of Americans preparing to flee
the country. Worst of all, there is no indication
OF change: the situation presents no hope of a
solution of the problems that have confronted the
administration in Washington since the day it
assumed control of the government Conditions
are infinitely than when Huerta was in I'M
recognized control in Mexico City. 1t can easily
be imagined that President Wilson and his ad-
vsers have often wished that Huerta were back
in power. If they had permitted him to STAY
doubtless they would have accorded him rccogni-
tion with the accompanying responsibility.
Now he is here in New York, and his plans,
whatever they arc may bring him to Washington
Private business explains his presence in this
country, according to his own statement, but al
ready he is overwhelmed with visitors and CORE
spondence. and he makes concealment of the
fact that he is deeply interested in Mexico, con-
corning which troubled country he is to make a
public statement Friday Can it be that the
cXilcd Huerta returns with plan for the pacifca-
ton of Mexico; that the to punish and crush
whom fleet was sent, may after all help this
government to overcome the difficulties that have
so long bcSet it? Hucrta may summon
powerful influences in Mexico and in this coun-
try, and his services not 10 be despiscd.

THE FRIENDLY ROAD.

Whatever your place, and whatever your load
If heavy or light be the burden you bear,
We're all of us ploddng the scf-samc road
Thro' valleys of love and DER hocks of
The sheddcrs of tears and the singers OF song,
The rich and tho pauper with naught for his own
All travel the highway that runncth along
From Nothingncss on the to the vast unknown
So here's to the road and the life that is there
And here's TO our fellows VIC meet the way
Who holds fast to Friendlincss finds tho way fair
Whatever the goal Of the uttermost day.
