Has the discussion of the let
ter of acceptance of Minister
Willis worn itself out? If it has
it would be well to consider the
wording of the acknowledge
mcnt of the Consul from Tim
buctoo. These letters do not
signify very much as the acknowl
edgcment OF government aeInre
is not within the scope of power
of a representative; no matter
what his letter may imply-the
home government is usually
jealous OF its rights in such
matters and you will find that
such notifications are accepted
for transmission to the State De
partment for action. The word
ing of the letter depends gen
orally upon the experience the
writer has had in diplomatic
circles. Nearly every one re-
members that when the Provi-
SlOnal Government was formed
the representative of one Of the
strongest governments on earth
acknowledged it, and pledged it
his moral support without any
reference to the home office. He
was PROBABLY inexperienced in
such matters and failed to con-
suit older heads. Whether the
letters received by the Govern
ment from the foreign represen-
tatives imply full recognition or
none at all matters little, it is
merely a matter of waiting a few
days or a few weeks, nothing
stands in the way OF such recog-
milton by the various State De
partmcnts and the horizon bears
every indication of remaining
clear of such objects. The dis
cession has given the newspaper
readers some good editorials and
furnished a course in a mental
diet.

quite as perfect as any done by
hand, the advantage being that
more than ten times the work
can be done by the machine. A
great advantage is also found in
the tripleX which scws three dis.
tinct stitches without changing
the shuttle or needle, two parts
in a sewing machine which give
the operator the most trouble.
In addition to all the good
sewing qualities Of the -Wer-

fitting are much the, finest of
any manufactured. The Ger

that any one who will try the
machine will be convinced of its
superiority.
