H Lincoln Cha«\ a Brookline phvaictsn for 30 year* to give up his lucrative practice and remove to Eas* A1 stead. N. H . where he intends to establish a community life with kin dred souls and will prove that the above principles can be lived and make for happiness. Associated with him are his wife, Mrs. Margaret (’base. and Hartley Dennett, commonly known her soul mate. Already Mr. Dennett and Mrs. Chase are located there, where they are preparing to receive the doctor as soon as he can conveniently leave Brookline after selling his attractive home. No 22 Kennard road. Dr. Chile Is an authority on the training of children, and will give the ream Its of his long exi»erlence to the town's people. He will be also in every civic Improvement of the vil lage. and will aim to carry, «*» far as he can, hie practical ideas of v. iat makes an IdeaJ neighborhood. The presenre of Mr Dennett in his home has caused some comment, but they share with each other the same views about life and both teach them by example and precept. Dr. Chase has been identified with th© Board of Health of Brookline for 22 yea/a He was tne first to intro duce physical training among the school children, and was head of many improvements in the town, where the best part of his life has been spent The community life that will be established may be the beginning of a project which mnv spread to other towns. Anyway. Dr. ('has* 1 hopes to Interest other villages In his cardinal principles. Three Cardinal Principles. Dr. Chase said: The three cardinal principles that will he emphasised there are purity, peacefulness and thoughtfulness. M\ wife. Mrs. Margaret K ('haw Jlart lev Dennett and I will get together in our home life and follow out these principles. Don’t understand me as meaning b\ puritv that this refers to the body merely. It will be made to do Mervice to the body, mind and soul. Hygienic teachiug is included In that word purity Christ In His teaching had no narrow’ idea of purity V\ e have In many wavs limited that word in our application I want to have its meaning broad ened The country town offer© spe cial inducement* for this People there have more leisure. They are not distracted by so many things or conditions Everything that we do will apply to the community Wha| will make the country town ideal? Why do we need to make people pure'* But’ pure is no conventional ‘•‘rise. In other words, we Intended to give the widest meaning to this team Everything that will improve the country town must come under this head of purity. With the practice that I hope to have there as a physician I shall aim to show’ my interest in every indi vidua I and in every movement for the betterment of the community. Then in our community life we shall discuss the teaching* of Tolstoi It is the teachings of non-re sistance. This is what 1 mean. Be peaceful The kingdom of God upon earth consists according to Tolstoi, that all men should be at peace with one another. Never quarrel over the simplest thing. Peace among men la the greatest blessing that can exist upon this earth, and it Is within reach of ail men. This is the true religion It is the extinction of enmity among mankind. Emerson’s Teachings. Then we shall weave Emerson into j our discussion. Why Emerson” you say. Because he teaches us to talk It is one of the hardest thing* to think. The essays of this philosopher will be used May this not explain the relation of Mr Dennett in our community, who shares so much along with us in thinking the right thought* that will help along this project at East A1 stead? Emerson thinks well. We want to think rightly. There is so much unwise thinking and miscon struction of one’s plans. If you can look rightly upon certain movements you then have the gift of thinking We propose to learn how to think jp in East Alstead. Mr. Dennett’s wife did not believe In hi* theories and obtained a di vorce. In a report made to the Su preme Court Fred W. Dallinger. referee, to decide who should have the custody of the Dennett children. Mr. Dallinger said: "Mrs. Chase wrote a letter to >ir* Dennett, in which she said thiat neither her marriage vow# to Dr. Chase nor Mrs. Dennett’s to Mr Den - I r.ett should be allowed to Interfere with the free expression of the deep I and sincere love existing between her- j •elf and Mr Dennett.” WIFE.

Special Cable to The American. COMO, ITALY. Sept. 6. -Some thing of the cheerful indifference of Porter Charlton seems gone The young American, awaiting trial on the charge that he killed his beauti ful wife shortly after their marriage three years ago. has grown nervous under the strain of the exacting third degree of the Italian police. More than once the delicate-seem ing youth has been on the verge of collapse when the police remorseless ly plied him with questions, and, in the sinister wa> that belongs to no one else but Italian police, sought to break his nerve. But onl> when his father entered his cell, a day or two ago. did any thing like an actual break of nerve by the fear of the ordeal In Italy, al though none except the most careful observers could observe the dread. To every one else he was the cheer ful. nonchalant young fellow, who promised every one that he would be back home by Christmas, and who j Rlinr! made numerous engagements for that holiday season.

The confession has not since be \ machine, to be used in rase of his death during his absence. Points to Nation’s Need. Mrs. J. S. Barnwell, superintendent of the Home for the Friendless, at No. 226 Highland avenue, drawing examples of deficients among the homelss, "doorstep" children In the i care of the home, has pointed out that acute physical suffering, and mental and moral taint ns well, is the result of failure of mothers to care for their children before birth. This failure, she declared, comes from Ignorance or indifference, usually j from ignorance. "It is appalling how little is known among women of the vital facts of life ! and death and birth.” she said. "And ; yet girls in schools are taught for j year after year trigonometry. Latin. 1 and such things relatively valueless, j in consideration of these greater facte." The superintendent was Inspired j to the discussion by her study of | the recent movement among wealthy women of Boston to establish "pre natal cafes,” where expectant mothers are taught the kind of foods they| must eat, to prevent malnutrition i of the children before birth. "The Idea Is splendid." said the Atlanta woman. "Why should not ! mothers care for their children be fore birth, with a view to their men tal moral and physical well-being? If it were done everywhere then chil dren would not be brought into the world such as we see every da v, anemic, dull, dishonest. After birth It is too late to cut^ t se evils They have been born with the children. Involves Future of Race. "The doctrine of prenatal influence is one of the most powerful signs of the world’s development and pro gress. I think. Prenatal care is a matter vital to the whole of human ity. for it Involves the vigor of the future race. "Establishments where mothers can be taught these things, taught how they may conduct themselves to bring info the world strong, healthy, capa ble children, will be of inestimable value. How much suffering would be saved the world if women only knew how to feed themselves to avoid malnutrition of the child. "We here who are brought into contact with the homeless, ’doorstep’ children, moat <>f whom come Into the world unwelcomed, can realize the deficiencies that come with lack oi care before birth. We see children with ineradicable moral tains, chil dren who are dull and slow-witted, children who are ;v*emic and who. if they live to maturity, live only to face a life of ill-health and suffering. "After birth it is too late to erad icate these evils. The harm is don-3 then. And how easy it would have been, with proper consideration: »f such simple things as foods, pleas ant thoughts, profitable occupation and study, to bring into the world, instead of the deficients, children strong, bright, moral.” The superintendent pointed exam ples of deficient children—usually, she showed, they were unwelcome chil dren, and indifference as to their wel fare had marked the period before their birth. On the other hand, she talked of children of her acquaintance who have grown into brilliance of mind and health of body because of care and training before birth. Prenatal Cafes Indorsed. The prenatal restaurants, which she indorsed without reserve, have boon established in New York and Boston by wealthy women The big idea of these institutions is to check malnutrition before birth. The cham pion of the plan is Miss Mabel Parker, known as the "Good Angel of the Ba bies of New York.” it Is her belief that the number of criminals will be greatly decreased when malnutrition before as well as after birth is less frequent. Miss Parker’s theory is that dining at the prenatal restaurant the expectant mother, by eating the prop er kind of food, is kept in prime health and is thus able to bear a robust chil 1. The first prenatal restaurant ir> this country v» as opened in New York by Miss Parker. It is reported that the "Angel” was amazed by the rush of expectant mothers who applied to her for feeding. On the opening day there was not room for a tenth part of them. Immediately siteps were taken to organize an ssociation in New York to take over the work of the pre natal restaurant. College professors, settlement leaguers and many wealthy New’ York women are charter mem bers. In the beginning the plans for the restaurant involve « noon meal only at 5 cents a persson. There will be broth, meat and vegetables. At least once a week the women will be In structed in what to eat. and lecturers will expound on other factors In the care of the children. Hopes for Cafe Chain. It is the hope of Miss Parker that her first prenatal resnaurant will lead to the establishment of a chain through the country. Three of Miss Parker'* most ardent supporters in the Boston enterprise are Mrs. Robert H. Sayre, mother of Frank Sayre, tho future husband of Jessie Wilson, the daughter of the President; Professor Thomas D. Wood, of Columbia Uni- PRENATAL INFLUENCE IS SIGN OF PROGRESS It is a pity to think of girls being stuffed full of trigonometry and Latin in schools, and being left ignorant of the essential things of life. Half the persons in the world are without knowledge or understand ing of the laws that govern and control life and death. Such steps as the doctrine of prenatal influence are indications that the world is growing better. The care of children before they are born is even more important than their care afterward, saving them from possible physical, men tal and moral taints which it is difficult to eradicate later. We who can observ the home less and the foundling child know how much harm and suffering can be wrought by ignorance and in difference of parents. I am not afraid to venture the prediction that progress!veness in these things—in the establishment of institutions for public educa tion in such matters, in general facilities for education—will be come universal. Church Owns Large Tracts of Tells Court Pitiful Story of How Land in Alberta and Is Buy ing More CALGARY. ALBERTA. Sept. That the Mormon Church heirarchy in Salt Lake City practically has decid ed to .abandon its Mexican coloniza tion scheme and devote all of its out side energies to the development of its lands and settlements in southern Alberta, was the announcement made semi-officially at C’ardston, south of Calgary, last week, on the occasion of the visit of Joseph F. Smith, of Utah, head of the church. Mr. Smith came to Alberta to dedi cate the site of the new temple to be built at C’ardston. and the first to be erected outside of Salt Lake.

The church owns hundreds of thousands of acres of lands in this territory, and is prepared to add to its holdings as often as it can, no matter what price has to be paid. President Smith also indicated that the church would make an attempt to buy out the Blood Indians, who own a large reserve in the Mormon terri tory. He said he did not care what the Indians wanted for their lands. Husband Eloped With Her Daughter. LOS ANGELES, Sept. 6.—Mrs. Lu- ella Nicholson, who came here from Trinidad, Colo., and asked the police to find her husband, who, she de clared, had eloped with her older daughter and kidnaped tw’o younger children, was arrested as a beggar after she had induced Judge Willis, of the Superior Court, to give her $10.

All this Mrs Barnwell in Atlanta views with hopeful eyes. "It Is a sign that the world is grow- j ing better,” she said. "I believe that I this progressiveness in such matters I will become universal, and that Ai- | lanta will not be long in taking steps j for public instruction and training in I these things. It is a great opportunity I for local philanthropists.” Grocers Tell Clubs To Mind Own Affairs __ Pure Food Advocates Advised to Stay at Home and Nurse Children.
