BRONsON-HOWARD, YOUNG
NOVELIST SEES NEW YORK
AS MODERN GOMORRAH

In New York, as in most other
great centers of population, one may.
find almost anything one looks for.
Albert Payson Terhune novelist and
journalist. who probably knows his
Gotham as well as any other man you
could find, declares that 1.-The real New
York; possesses more quiet, steady,
hometown people than any other
city in America. Another novelist,
George Bronson-Howard in his lat
est work, = Goods Man. overlooked
that phase of the great eitys life, and
has produced a strong and powerful
tale in which extremes meet and
wastefuI wealth and terrible poverty
are made to seem the prevailing char
acteristics of the New World metro
polls. To him Broadway is Mad
mans Lane, and he seemingly judges
that glittering thoroughfare by it's few
ha bitues, rather than by the vast null
titude of people from all over Amerf-
ca to whom its theatres and cabarets
and lobster palaces afford occasional
opportunity for mild dissipation. New
York has its social climbers and drug
dends and thieves and srevoIutionists
and women of the half-World and UNI
derworld and merciless capitalists and
all the other unwho1esome types
Bronson Howard puts into his now
Ell, but they are not New York, any
more than Broadway and Fifth ave-
nue. and the asst Side are New York.
George Bronson-Howard, who now
seemingly entertains, an ambition to
rank as the American lola, was born
in Maryland. thirty-two years ago to-
day, and was privately educated in
Baltimore and London. In his early
manhood he was in the government
employ in the Philippines and China,
and was correspondent of the London
Chronicle in the Russo-Japanese war.
He has had journalistic experience in
Baltimore. New York. San Francisco
and other cities, and published his
first novel, +'Norroy, Diplomatic
Agent about a decade ago. He has
written scores of short stories for the
leading magazines of America and
England, but Goods Man" is by far
his most ambitious work, and un-'
doubleday ranks among the few great
novels of the last year. Probably no
other novelist has ever succeeded in
presenting SO true a pRture of the
darker side of New York life, and the
thirty-fve speaking characters in the
book are accurate representa- ives of
their respective types. Yet there is

FOOD SQUIRTING IN
STOMACH CAUSES
INDIGESTION, GAS
'Pape's Diapepsin" ends all
stomach distress in five
minutes

Wonder what upset your stomach
which portion of the food did the dam
age-do you? Wen, don't bother. IF
your stomach is in revolt; if sour,
gassy and upset, and what you just
ate has fermented into stubborn
Jumps; head dizzy and aches; beIch
gases and acids and eructate undi-
gested food; breath foul, tongue coat
ed-just take a little Pape's Diapep-
sin and in five minutes you wonder
what became of the indigestion and
distress.
Millions of men and women today
know that it is needless to have a bad
stomach. A little Diapepsin occasion
ally keeps this delicate organ regu-
lated and they eat their favorite foods
without fear.
If your stomach doesn't take care
of your liberal limit without rebellion;
If your food is damage instead of a
help, remember the quickest, surest,
most harmless relief is Pape's Diapep-
sin which costs only fifty cents for a
large case at drug stores. It's truly
wonderful--tt digests food and sets
hings straight, so gently and easily
hat it is really astonishing. Please,
or your sake, don't gon on and on
18th a weak, disordered stomach; it's
, necessary.-Adv.

NOT A CANDIDATE.

DR.. Osborne whose name has been
mentioned as prospective Health
officer, says that he was surprised to
know that he was candidate, and
the chances are very strong that he
will not accept the position. if tender
ed him. One reason that he gives
for not wanting to accept the job is
that a man in the position is often

tenacity ever since. During Saturday
night there was a fall in tempera-
ture to an extent of II degrees which
brought the mercury down to 8.5 yes
terday. But during the day it rose
again to 17.2 and the people are in
c1ined to believe that the cold wave
has spent its force for a little while
at least.
The fresh water ponds and streams
are now in excellent shape for ice
smooth as glass at all points. Yes
terday crowds of skaters enjoyed
themselves at Moody's Pond, Penn

to-day and they hope for a continu-
ance of the cold wave.
IT IS SPINAL MENINGITIS.
The epidemic of spinal meningitis
among the horses of +. s. Cooks
boarding stables, as told exclusively
in The Farmer yesterday, is on the
increase rather than otherwise. Three
more horses have since died of the
distemper, making nine in all and
the disease has spread to the other
horses.
The trouble was first noted Sunday
night. when three horses showed signs
of the illness and died a few hours
later. The distemper spread and
Monday forenoon three more horses
died. Three more victims of the same
disease died this morning.
Mr.. Cook. in speaking about the
condition of the barn, said that the
casualties Of Sunday were the first in
10 years since he has started the sta
b1es other than by accident. There
were 40 horses in the barn when the
epidemic broke out. They are being
removed to other quarters until the
plague has left the stable.
