By THOMAS T. HOYNE

Those If US who read nickel novels in our
boyhood cannot contemplate the wane in their
popularity without feeling of sadness.
sentimental depression sweeps over us similar
to that which engufed all good FOUNDERS when
they saw the oldtme sea-going hack grad
ualy driven out of business by The taxicab.
There are only two publishing houses that
continue to issue nickel novels to-day; and of
these one need not be reckoned with, as it turns
out only one week. All the rest come from
the house of Frank Tousey.
Frank Touseyl What name for a pub
Usher of nickel novels!
By the very irony of fate such good names
as Beadles, which reeks with the atmosphere
of gloomy crags, precipices SLOUGH hats, spurs,
many-caped coats, holsters and wild horses,
have passed out of existence and there remains
only Frank Tousey!
AS boy | never knew how to pronounce
this deadly fiat name. Was it Toosie? | feared
it was! A name that sounded of pantomime
that might belong to the clown in a circus
that suggested anything but the stern, un-
yielding, vengeful stuff Of which nickel novel
heroes are made.
When | used to read the Frank Reade stor-
les | would turn the cover hurriedly that
| might dodge seeing that vapid name of the
publisher. The uncertainty about its proun-

been IN California in his life. He had run
away from his home in Boston. He had en-
graved the strange design on the bone with
his jackknife.
Could there be any more dreadful evidence
of the decline of the nickel novel than this?
Bangl Bangl By Heavens there IS more
dreadful evidence still!
Frank Merrvae, Diamond Dick and host
of other heroes have been wiped out by the
relentless movies. Scores of Boy Avengers,
Boy Terrors of the Plains and Boy Detectives
have dropped in their tracks!
The weekly output of nickel novels which
used to be measured in tons, has dwinded I'M
til to-day there are only eight publications in
the field. Count theml Eight
Audit them, and it comes to light that even
one of these eight is not nickel novel of the
old school. 1t is different. 1t does not tell the
adventures of one inspiring hero 1t tells in
story form moving picture plays.
Erred Fearnot" "King Brady" "The
Liberty Boysl" "The Boy Fireman." "Buf-
falo Bill" young Wild Westw These are
the only heroes that remain. They account for
six Of the eight publications. The other two
are Moving Picture Stories" and Happy
Days" This last is the sole survivor of the
many weeklies that used to print continued
stories of wild adventure for boy readers.

MAGIC.

MAGIC.
by Edra,d J. O'Brt,r. IN "Th> Trimmed Lam,
I ran into the sunset light
As hard az could run;
The treetops bowed in sheer deligh,
As II they loved the sun:
And all the songs Of little birds
Who laughed and cried in silver word,
Were Joined as they we're one.
And down the streaming golden SKY
A lark came circlng with a cry
or wonder-weaving joy:
And all the arch OF heaven rang
Where mesdowands Of dreaming hang
As when | was a boy.
And through the ringing solitude
In pulsing lovely amplitude
A mist hung in shroud
As though the light Of loneliness
Turned pure delight 10 holiness,
And bathed 1t in a cloud.
/ stripped my laughing body bare
And plunged into that holy air
That washed me like a sea.
And raced against its silver tide
That stroked my eager glancing sid.
And made my spirit free.
Across the limits Of the land
The wind and swept land In hard
Beyond the golden glow.
We danced across the ocean plain
Like thrushes singing in the ram
song Of long ago.
And on into the silver night
We strove TO win the race with light
And bring the vision home,
And bring the wonder home again
Unto the sleeping eyes Of men
Across the singing foam.
And down the river Of the world
Our glowing limbs in glory swirled
AS spring within flower,
And stars in music of delight
Streamed gayly down our shoulders VII
Like petals in shower.
And tears of awful wonder ran
Adown my cheeks to hear the clan
OF beauty chanting white
The prayer too deep for living word.
Or sight of man, or winging bird,
Or music over forest heard
At falling of the night.
And dropping slowly as the dew
On grasses that the winds renew
In urge of flooding fire,
And softly as the hushng boughs
The gentle airs OF dawn arouse
To cradle mornings quire,
The murmur Of the singing leaves
Around the secret Flame,
Like mating swallows meath the caves
In rustling silence came,
And flowing through the silent air
Creation luttered in a prayer
Descending on a spiral stair
And calling me BY name.
II nestled in my dreaming eyes
Like heaven in a lake,
And softened hope into surprise
For very beauty's sake,
And silence blossomed into morn,
Whose fragrant rosy-breasted dawn
Could scarcely bear to break.
| sang into the morning light
As loud as | could sing,
The treetops bowed in sheer delight
Before a slsnting wing,
And all the songs Of little birds
Who laughed and cried in silver words
Adored the Risen Spring.

TUBERCULOSIS CAN BE CURED
 AT HOME.

IL is not necessary to seek a change of climate. The climate of Arkansas is good; and after all it is the oxygen that fights tuberculosis and this oxygen can be secured from the fresh air of this state as well as from the fresh air of Colorado It is true that the air of certain states is dryer and the climate more agreeable. but if you live according to rule here you can get the best out of fresh air and work toward a cure.
 If you want to know more about this. or if you want to save others from becoming tubercular, write the Arkansas Society for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis, City Hall, Little Rock.

NOMAN'S PARTY LEADERS
 ARE HOLDING CONFERENCE

Colorado Springs, Aug. 1O.-Wom- ans party leaders at the opening ses- sion of a three day national confer ence here today considered informally the election policy of the party during the forthcoming campaign and out lined a program of activity to be pur- sued in the twelve equal suffrage |states.
 Leaders tonight were uncertain as to the form in which the woman's party announcement of policy would be officially made. Certain prominent Tn the councils of the organization favored resolutions indefinitely with drawing support of the party from the Democratic administration with out formal indorsement of other can dldates or parties. Another element urged the indorsement of Chas. E. Hughes as the bset means of obtain
 ing the enactment of the federal suf- frage amendment.
