cleverly remarked that for the aver
age popular success nowadays pos

generation or two. perhaps. but re-
mains by no means negligible item

land" the maker of the National
Cook Book" was more familiar in
many thousand homes of the grand
mothers and mothers of the present
generation than that of most states
men of International importance.
The cook book used to rank next to
the Family Bible in most home Ii
braries-and it does to-day in those
parts of the country where the old
home life has not been swept away
by the two room and bath apart

But Marion Hariand" was only a
pseudonym. and many thousand de-
voted readers have been also familiar
for much more than half a century
with her real name-Mary Virginia
Terhune. prolific writer of pleasant
fiction, of "reminiscences. of historical
essays, literary criticism and contri-
buttons to questions of the day. Be-
sides all that, she was an efficient
editor on st. Nicholas, the Chicago
Tribune and the old Wide AsUdke, a
magazine which those of us who are
old enough to remember 1t as a
brightener of our youth will always
feel was the best children's magazine
ever printed. Finally she was the
mother of two daughters and son,
each of whom has attained distinc-

Terhune Vandewater and Albert
Payson Terhune. Few, indeed,
among American women could point
to SO extensive and varied a con-
tribution to the literature and
thought of the day as Mrs. Terhune.
She had the further unusual dis
tinction that, although she was born
more than twenty years before the
civil war and was thoroughly of the
South. she had also the trick of per-
ennial youth and knew how to grow
up with the times. Her last novel,
published but few years ago. had a
genuinely youthful quality.

all its own. For though it lacks the
fragrance and the freshness of the
springtime. yet it has the color and
majesty OF the fall. the splendor of
autumnal hillsides and of great
woods from which the last crimson
leaves are slowly fluttering.
To the presentation OF this view
DIR. Hall devotes a voluminous work,
rich in illustration, fascinating in
method, comprehensive in scope. 1t
would be difficult to find another
book that deals with the subject SO
exhaustively and yet so interest
ingly; from beginning to end it is
infused with life. and the style is
such as to hold the attention of the
youthful as well as OF the gray
haired. There are instructive and
entertaining chapters on the history
Of old age. on literature Of the aged,
on the statistics of old age. on medi-
cal views and treatment, and on
biology and physiology: but perhaps
the most Interesting chapters are

Problems of Old Age

SENESCENCE. BY G. Stanley Hall.
ID. Appleton & Co.
FACING OLD AGE. BY Abraham Ep-
stein. Alfred A Knopf.
DERHAPS one of the least un-
derstood periods of life is old
age. The child is instinctively
repelled by the sight OF age. the
youth tolerates it because he has to,
the mature man, if not yet senescent,
dismises it from his thoughts as a
necessary evil mitigated only by its
remoteness. Among savage tribes
the aged are sometimes venerated as
seers or wizards. and sometimes
slain as having outlived their useful
ness; ard while. among civilized peo-
pies, they are ordinarily accorded
some measure of respect. yet there
are those who agree with Osler's IA
NOUS contention that the real work
of the world is done by men between
rs and 40 years of age. and that per-
sons over 60. in common with su-
perannuated dogs. horses and cats,
should be painless,y put to death.
A diametrically opposite view Of
the matter is taken by G.. Stanley
Hall. whose treatise on "Senescence"
is q companion Volume to his study
OF adolescence" issued some years
ago. 1t is Dr. Hall $ contention that
old age Should be an active. vivid,
beautiful phase Of life, instead OF the
physical and intellectual shipwreck
that 1t is so often painted to be; he
maintains that the lengthening Of
the shadows should only serve to
bring out the outlines of life In
more mellow tones. and to make on

nomena of death and It's
Mystery" M. Flammarion is moro
occupied with the accumulation and
sitting of data than in drawing any
too definite conclusions from them.
The book. therefore. is Of no small
importance to scientific investiga-
tors. since N. Flammarion is prf-
mariiy after facts. and he adherus
pretty closely to exact scientific
methods in gathering and presenting
them. He is much closer to such in
| vestigators as Crawford and James
in this work than to enthusiasts iks
Sir Oliver Lodge and Sir Conan
Doyle. He does not make the very
curious slip of following scientific
methods carefully up to a certain
point only to jump clear over an
abyss of noa sequiturs into fairy
land of pure guesswork. There re-
mains. nevertheless. large possi-
bility of serious percentage Of error
| in his research. since he is inevita-
bly, obliged to take most of his ma
terial at second hand and must trust
somewhat to the accuracy OF state
ment of his informants. To this he
has a ready answer, saying:
1t was on the comparison Of
observations that astronomy was
founded. 1t will be the same with
psychic science. and this is the
only method by which to attain to
knowledge of truth.
There is weight in that contention,
provided the mass Of observations
is sufficiently great. and provided
extreme care Is taken in admitting
each individual report. AS to that
M. F1ammarion is always entitled to
respectful consideration, however
close he may sometimes so to imag-
NATIVE science. for he rarely slips
over the edge of danger.

The problems of old age are dis
