pus of Princeton University, near
which l lived, l used to read install
ments of "The Sea Wolf" in the Sen
tury," and it is only few times in
life that we experience such thrills.
And David Graham Phillips. / lay
a wreath upon the tomb of this noble
hearted, old-style American from the
middle west. In those young days
snobbery was still force against
which a man could fight it had not
yet become the whole of civilization.
How Phillips loathed the beautiful
parasitic female, and how he dashed
her, and her male provider, in those
perfectly documented pictures of bust
ness and social graft! But alas, the
parasitic female now has all the
money to spend for novels, and she
has raised up a school of secondary
dairy parasites, the literary lounge
lizards. ! do not know how / can
better sum up the change which has
come over America in twenty years,
than to mention that these novels of
David Graham Phillips were pub
lished one after another in the "Sat-
urday Evening Post" If their author
were to come back to the gorgeous
show-place in which his publishers
now dwell, he would not get by the
detectives in the lobby.
He died at the height of his pow
ers, shot by man for what reason
the public has never been told; he
was buried, and his reputation was
put into the same grave. It is moth
ing less than a conspiracy of our kept
critics which deprives this magnifi-
cent talent of it's influence. 1t is true
that his work is unpolished-bu will
any kept critic assert that the work
of Rousseau is polished, or that of
Tolstoy? Phillips is one of the great
moral forces of our literature, and
he will come into his own, just as
surely as the American people awaken
from their dope-dream.
And then Edith Wharton. It is
only rarely that a member of fash
ionable society takes to writing; they
don't have to, and it seems hardly
quite good form. But now and then

HIKING LURES
MANY DURING
VACATION Time
Walking Proves Most
Healthful of All
RecreatiOns

Interest in hiking as an inexpen-
i've and healthful form of summer
recreation is shown by the increas-
ing number of vacationists who
prefer this kind Of outdoor activity
to any other. AS Edgar Forest
Wolfe says In Hiking to Health
and Happiness, in Physical Gull
ture Magazine for August, all 1t re-
quires is a pair of legs and a knowl-
edge of how to use them.
Walking, he says, Is hard work
only to those who do not use their
legs beyond the bare requirements
Of necessity. But to those who have
yielded to the Call of the Open
Road, it forms one of the greatest
pleasures that life can bring.
The organization of Hiking Clubs
in many cities and towns has at
tracted hundreds of intelligent men
and women who appreciate the re-
markable benefits TO be gained by
this delightful form of physical
activity.
In his article, Mr.. Wolfe gives
many helpful suggestions regarding
and safety first" meas
ures for both short and long hikes.

Gives Birth
To Quadruplets
All Four Babies
Survive

When Mrs. \Wiiliam Mahaney
brought four babies into the world
on Christmas Day, in 1928, the
chances were hardly one in a thou
sand that she would be able to keep
them together beyond six months of
their birth. The experts said it
simply wasn't being DONE"
But Mrs. Mahaney's previous rec
ord as a mother gave her courage
to try. OF six former children, only
one had died; and she decided to
make a desperate super-human at
tempt to rear the bankruptcies. But
how?
Edith May and Edna Louise,
weight four pounds ten ounces, and
five pounds seven ounces, respec-
lively, were the tiniest mites she
had ever seen. The experts looked
at them and said it would be utterly
impossible for these little mites to
live more than six months, regard
less of the care they received. The
other two, LYDIA Christine and John
Douglas, weighed respectively eight
pounds nine ounces and eight
pounds three ounces, and seemed
healthy enough.
That was over three years ago
and today lit is doubtful if four
sturdier children exist anywhere. :
How did Mrs. Mahaney do it?
She has written the story, entitled
"'You Can't Raise bankruptcies
They Say-But Did It." for Aug
ust Physical Culture Magazine.

Girls Tragic Mistake
Proves Lifelong Blight
Scorned Marriage for Financial
Rewards of a Business Career
Now Makes Pathetic Plea
For Right instruction
a of Young

Whether her mothers unhappy
married life had anything TO do with
it, there is no doubt that she had
managed to absorb a bitter, man
hating philosophy from her mothers
unfortunate experience.
Work hard, study faithfully. ana
learn to do something. Just. like a
man." her mother counseled.
So the girl finished college and
went into training for a legal career.
She proved good lawyer, and built
up good practice-of its kind. But
every hint of romance was relig-
iously excluded from her life. Sue
cess in her profession - and the
money that came with success
these fulfilled her every desire and
or so she hought-brought her
happiness.
Then came a day when she sud-
denly awakened to the fact that she
was a failure-that her life had been
q terrible waste. Marriage, a man
to love her, a home where she could
be queen-what wouldn't she give
If all the success and money she
had won could be exchanged for
these. Was it still too late?
The true story of this girls tragic
mistake and the desperate measures
she adopted to correct 1t appears
as one of the leading features in
August Physical Culture Magazine.
incidentally the very telling OF her
story is a pathetic plea for the
right instruction OF the young. Ac-
tually it is a startling human docu-
ment.

Writer Sounds Warning to
Nations Pleasure-Mad

Is the mad scramble for excite
ment, the indulgence in all manner
of excuses, which constitute the
worst feature of our modern civili-
cation, increasing the death-tol
from disease?
Is the nation counting physical
disaster by indulging in orgies OF
food drunkenness?
Do good times" mean so much
more to the people than good health
and long life that they will continue
the mad pace until they drop dead
standing up"-victims of that dread
scourge, apoplexy?
"Apoplexy," declares Edwin A.
Goewey, "is one of the most errible
menaces of our modern existence
perhaps the very worst except cam
Ger and influenza with pneumonia.
And apoplexy." he adds, SIS Che re-
suit Of over-eating, overworlz, ire
mendous nervous strain over a con-
siderable period, lack of necessary
sleep, lack of exercise and outdoor
life, habitual ill temper and fits of
passion, ct cetera."
A celebrated physician, world
famous because of his skill in the
treatment of brain, heart and nerve
diseases, is quoted by Mr.. Goewey
as authority for his assertions con-
corning the tendency of many pleas

DANGER FROM
MOSQUITO BITES
Noted Authority Offers Timely
Advice on How to Avoid Infec-
tons From These Deadly Pests

Since the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture began to con-
duct it's experiments with mosqui-
toes, flies and other insects as
carriers of disease among human
beings, much has been learned re-
garding the best ways to combat the
dangers created by these common
pests.
Among the foremost authorities
on this subject is Edmund c. Gray,
MD, whose findings, based on long
study of insects and their habits,
has brought to light many important
facts which everyone should know.
1.-THE evidence against the common
house fly as a disease carrier is well
known" says Gray. "He crawls over
what we eat and wipes his feet on
it, without regard to where those
feet have trod but few minutes
before" There are other varieties
Of flies whose bites are vicious and
painful. Some of them, he points
out, may walk over wounds and in
feet them by depositing infected or
decomposing material.
Mosquitoes are dangerous, or
mere -nuisances, says DR.. Gray, ac-
cording to their breed. An inter-
esting and instructive article by DR..
Gray on what to Do For Fly and
Mosquito Bites" appears in August
Physical Culture Magazine.
