Tradition and Good Books.

Good books. like wcll-built houses,
must have tradition behind them,
writes Henry Seidel Candy in the Yale
Review. The Homers and Shake
speares and Goethes spring from rich
soil left by dead centuries; they are
like native trees that grow 50 well no
where else. The little writers-hacks.
who scntimentalizc 10 the latest order,
and display their plot novelties like
bargains on an advertising page-are
just as traditional The only differ
ence Is that their tradition goes back
to books Instead of life. Middle-sized
authors-the very good and the prob
ably enduring-nre successful largely
because they have gripped a tradition
and followed II through 20 contem-
pOrary life. That is what Thackeray
did In "Vanity Fair" HowcllS in "The
Rise OF Silas Lapham" and Mrs. Whar-
ton In 1.-THE House Of Mirth." But
back-to-nature books-both sound ones
and those shameless exposures Of the
private emotions Of ground-hogs and
turtles that call themselves nature
books-are the most traditional Of ALL
For they plunge directly into what
might be called the adventures of the
American INCONSISTENCIES.

tuberculosis Increasing.

Tuberculosis is rapidly increasing
among hogs IN the United States, and
every owner Of swine should be On his
guard against the Introduction OF this
serious malady upon his premises.
Unlike hog cholera this disease is In

velopment, so that II may be present
for months In a herd without exciting
the least suspicion Of the owner. and

A careful study of the prices being
charged for substitutes for wheat
-four convinces US that Congress
might well investigate the profits be-
ing made by those who are manu-
featuring the aforesaid substitutes.
We believe that the manufacturers
of rice -four. barley -four. and corn
meal can we'll afford to subscribe for
one-half the next Liberty loan. A
barrel of the best wheat flour now
costs at wholesale $12.6O. A barrel
of rice -four costs $40, a barrel of
cornmeal $3.50. The prices being
charged for substitutes is nothing

AMAZING DRILL FOR POMUS.
New Exercise System Brings Marvel
Gus Results in Conditioning French.

Popular Mechanics Magazine: Through
the application OF a new system of
exercise, amazing results have been
attained in conditioning French sol.
diers after their devitali2ing periods ut
the front.
1t has been found that trench fatigue
is more of mental than physical
exhaustion Heretofore attempts have
been made to couneract it by giving
the men the rest cure. Strained nerves,
however, prevent normal, restful slum.
Der. Therefore, only partial recovery
has been made.
To meet the condition, the army au.
thorities have tried out, with splendid
success, a plan of regeneration devised
by Lieutenant Hebert of the French
navy. Instead OF allowing wornout
French soldiers to fall into their cots
and sleep when they first emerge from
the shell craters and trenches, they
are taken into the country. There in
open fields and woodlands they are put
through training that affords mental
relaxation and physical exertion, after
which they have untroubled, energy.

Stripped to their waists, the fellows
are made to run across fields, leap
ditches hurdle fences race up hillsides
dart along forest paths, climb treea
like gorlllas, crawl through grass like
snakes, jump and laugh. and sing, and
in short. act the part of the fauns tha,
the startled peasants at first think them
10 be. Each period OF violent exercise
is followed by measured spell OF quiet
movements. all OF which is planned
and executed with the utmost care.
The same method is used for train.
ing new men for military service.
AS an example OF the benefits of sucn
training. troops drilled by this system
were pitted in sham bate against .
body of similar size developed by the
old method. Their losses were four
