HIS LAST BOW

who had fingered in the kitchen, he
had the whole place to himself. There
was good deal of tidying up to do in
side his study and he set himself to
do 1t, until his keen, handsome face
was flushed with the heat of the burn
ing papers. A leather valise stood be-
side his table, and into this he began
to pack very neatly and systematical-
ly the precious contents of his safe.
He had hardly got started with the
work, however, when his quick ears
caught the sound of a distant car. In
stantly he gave an exclamation of sat
lsfaction, strapped up the valise, shut
the safe, locked it, and hurried out on
to the terrace. He was just in time to
see the lights of small car come to a
halt at the gate. A passenger sprang
out of it and advanced swiftly towards
him, while the chauffeur, a heavily
built, elderly man, with a grey nous
tache settled down, like one who re-
signs himself to a long vigil.

SAYS GLAND CAUSES
WHITE, BLACK SKINS
From the Detroit News. ]

Prof. L. Bolk, director of the de-
partment of anatomy in the University
of Amsterdam, says the white man is
indebted for his uncolored skin to a
gland, probably the suprarenal body,
small gland above the kidneys,
which interposed its influence 10 put
stop TO the fermentation of the skin
in man.
In cases Of Addison's disease, the
fermentation reappears as it probab
ly was in primitive man. This disease
is an affliction of the superarenal
gland, which is taken as proof that the
healthy gland exercises a repressiye
influence on the skin-coloring process.
1t is on this same hypothesis that a
Brazilian physician based his claim,
until now undemonstrated, that he
could turn a Negro white by gland
transportation.

ILLITERATE SPANISH
PUBLIC MAKES POOR
MARKET FOR BOOKS
(From La Prensa, Buenos Aires)

tFrom La Prensa, BuenoS A1reS)
Our masses lin SPAIN do not know
how to read, although they have begun
to spell. They clamor for pseudosci-
ence or pornographic literature. The
authors who cater to this public have
hardly evolved beyond the illiterate
story tellers of an earlier age. They
create nothing of their own. They re
cast only that which has reached their
ears.
But, while the iliiterate authors of
old listened 10 the voice of learned au-
thority, the ignorant and half educated
writers who appeal to the public ear
today flatter themselves in underrat-
ing true scholarship and art.
That is why | say that the real au-
thor, the author who labors to endow
a nations soul with a universal con-
science, to create pure science and
pure art, does not exist today in Spain,
except potentially. Like bishops in
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. without a diocese
they are authors without public.
No Market For Books.
You may argue that though these
authors exist in partibus they are still
real authors. l partially admit this.
/ We have as many and as excellent
authors in Spain as in the most fruit
! full period of Spanish literature, but
/ they are inhibited aUthors-inhibited
/ by two conditions.
The first of these conditions is an
economic servitude that robs them of
! leisure for creative work. This in
turn is due to the excessive and hasty
production of books, and to the flood
of cheap periodicals. A scribbler who
does not know how to write, but who
catches the ear of large public, may
earn enough by singh book or half
a dozen books to emancipate himself
economically. But the author with a
conscience-with a double conscience,
national and universal-has to ransom
his leisure for artistic creation by a
toll Of hasty and half-baked popular
writing.
According to Musset, three things
are absurd beyond all other things; a
battle without a charge, a journey
without a book, and a life without a
love. On a Spanish train, a traveller
who carries a book is stared at as an
unheard-of oddity, like d priest not
crossing himself and mumbling over
his breyiary.
