At the Show T he Six Touring j for Five | fl Every man is true to some woman -in his fashion 0 ; ' The UYtiffi creates beauty out of ugliness, purity out of filth. A Baudelaire imagines his mistress dead and rotting, and writes a great poem. And out of the scum of a Paris brothel, poor Sidney Bush built his marble Cynara. It made him famous, of course, and earned a place in the Metropolitan. To thousands who see this great statue there, it seems to be the spirit of the sort of woman who rises in a man’s mind after a debauch, and makes him groan. A few who knew Sidney Bush sec it as a chiseling of his own tragedy—an image with the soul of his wife and the face and body of another woman. Everything beautiful in the life of Sidney Bush came from his wife, but as a man and an artist he could not admit it. His vanity drove him to a Paris guttersnipe, and he immor talized her fair body in his statue of Cynara. Even that his wife could understand though it put her on the rack of jealousy. Mary Roberts Rinehart, always writing effectively and to the point, tells the story of Sidney Bush and his Cynara in MARCH Heart’s International: Every woman reading it will recognize a little of Sidney Bush in the man closest to her. It shows an infinite understanding of the sacrifice and suffering a man s vanity can cause a woman. It is typical of the only magazine that seeks edu cation and entertainment in thrilling subjects —Hearffs International. ...Another Story as stimulating as Mary Roberts Rinehart's is William J. Locke’s story of the loves and hates of primitive people, called "As It Was in the Beginning.” And equally entertaining, A. E. W. Masons new detective novel, beginning in March Heart’s International. ...In an article, as interesting as fidion, Thomas Edison answers the question "Do we live again?" He believes the cells of which we arc made live forever. ...Gifford Pinchot, in another article, tells how the Coal Barons are gouging us by taking more than three times the pre-war margin as their profit. ••• The Mouse that Frightens Hughes" gives the fads about the Reds in America.... facts that show how timid and shallow our Politicians often are. ...There is more fidion by Montague Glass, Peter Clark Macfarlanc, H. G. Wells, Peter B. Kync, Kath leen Norris, and others. ...Louis R. Glavis telling more about the Klan's substitution of its own rule for the rule of eleded rep resentatives; the intimacies of Mary Garden; A Jersey Town All Jews; 25 outstanding features in all complete the only magazine that gives fidion as stimulating as articles and articles as interesting as the best fidion of the day.
