A Significant Departure.

With the departure of another year
when a review is made of the condit-
ion OF affairs, it is only right that
some thought be given to the physical
body which enables everyone to bat
tie with life's problem and figure for
themselves the profit or loss on the
trial balance sheet. Though the bank
account may be large and each ones
material gain be great, it would not
be surprising il it suddenly dawns
upon many that good health has been
greatly Impoverished by the low
condition of the blood. II is in this
state that the Tactic acid IN the vital
fluid attacks the q ,rous tissues. par
ticularly the joints, making known
the local manifestations of rheums-
tism. Thousands of people have
found in Hoods sarsaparilIa the
great blood purifier, q positive and
permanent cure for rheumatism.

Is this country afraid of Japan? says
the Washington Star.
Lii Hung Chang is quoted as saying
that President Cleveland's policy re-
garding the Hawaiian Islands and his
failure to intervene in China's behalf
during the recent war in the East were
due to fear of the new Power Of the
Orient. He asserts that Japan has a
larger and better feet of warships than
the United States, with ten times as
many torpedo boats. She could lay
the whole of the defenseless Pacific
coast under contribution, burning San
Francisco with explosive shells and
holding at her mercy the cities on Pu-
get Sound. Incidentally, the Japanese
would take possession of the rail-
roads, mines and manufactures and
would hold them until any indemnity
they chose to ask was paid"
These remarks from Earl Lii have
excited no little mirth among army
and navy men here. They were re-
ferred by the writer to Admiral Rich
ard W. Meade, who said:
"Why, Japan might be able for a
while to give us some trouble on the
Pacific coast, owing to the lack of adj
equate defenses, but the situation
would change as quickly as we got our
ships around there. 1t is not true that
our ships are inferior in number and
strength to those of the Mikado's en-
pire.
Among other things, you must re-
member that in order to attack the
United States, Japan would have to
transport stores and coal distance Of
of 5000 miles. Furthermore, fight
of attack is much more difficult than
a fight of defense. Lii Hung Changes
remarks, if he has been correctly quot
ed, are absurd. To begin with, you
must consider the equation between
the American and the Japanese. 1 do
not underrate the fighting capacity Of
the Japanese people; 1 have the high
est respect for them. But the Ameri-
can navy would walk right through
their fleet When-we were compare
lively feeble we held our own against
Great Britain. Out of thirty odd fights
during the war of 1912 we won twenty
seven"

81 AUTHORITY.
CIRCULAR.

In circular formerly issued by this
Board on the subject Of religious teach
ing in schools, reference was made
to the fact that in the statutes relating
to the Bureau of Public Instruction it is
provided that no person in holy orders
or minister of religion shall be eligible
to fill the Office of President of the
Board of Education or of Inspector
General
Again, Article 81 of the existing Con-
stitution declares that mo public mon
ey shall be appropriated nor. public
land conveyed to or for the support or
benefit of any sectarian. denomina-
tional or private school," etc.
The evident intention of these pro-
visions is that there shall be no relig-
ious teaching in the public schools sup
ported by the Government, but that
they shall remain strictly non-sectar-
ian and secular.
The school buildings should there
fore be used only for purposes pertain
ing to the public education of the
children of the country. Accordingly.
the permission formerly given to the
School Agents ito arrange with the
clergymen of any religious denomina-
ton to allow them the use of the Gov
eminent school houses after 2 o'clock
p. m, for time not exceeding one
hour, once week for each denomina-
ton applying, for the religious instruc-
ton of such scholars as may choose to
attend is hereby revoked.
This Board does not, however, con-
slider it inconsistent with the principle
stated above, to continue the practice
of opening the schools every morning
by repeating the Lords prayer in
unison.
The School Law also declares that
1.-THE object Of the common schools
supported by Government is to instruct
the children of the nation in good
morals" which include honesty, truth
fulness, obedience to parents and teach
ers, respect for superiors in age and
position, patriotism, kindness, benevo-
lence, helpfulness to the weak and the
unfortunate, humanity to animals, per-
sonal cleanliness, modesty, chastity,
temperance and other virtues, which
should be taught by precept, iilustra-
ton and example at all times.
No profane or indecent language
should be allowed in the school prem
ises or on the way to or from school.
Special instructions should also be
given on the evil effects of the use of
alcoholic drinks and Of narcotics.
By order of the Board of Education,

Secretary.

THE RED CROSS IN CUBA.
Assistance From American Organization
Not likely to be Permitted By Spain.


Newport, R. l., September 25.-Miss
CLARA Barton, who Is visiting friends
here, said to the members of the g. A..
R. posts who called upon her that the
reports of the trouble and distress in Asia
Minor were not exaggerated and in her
opinion, nothing less than the united
charities of the world could prevent
shocking starvation there next winter.
Miss Barton stated that she had received
no application from the Cuban club for
Red Cross az ,istance for the Cuban army
as reported.
Another Red Cross worker, in speak
ing of the cruelties in Cuba. snys for
the Red Cross to act under the present
attitude of the United States toward
Cuba, would neoessitate their frs. re-
ceiving certain concessions from Spain.
From certain happenings in the past,
it does not appear probable that Spain
would listen to any arguments concern
ing the humane treatment of Cubans or
their wounded. Doctors who have gone
from here to aid the injured have been
thrust into prison and there shot BY
Spaniards, who destroy both Cuban
hospitals and wounded when they fall
into their hands.
1t is suggested if feasi BILE plan be
devised whereby the American Red Cross
can be of assistance to the sufferers of
either side, that the society would un-
dou btedly be only too glad to send it.

Henri Brest, Who Lately Died Near the
Spot Where the Goddess Was Unearthed'

The recent death on the island of Melos
of Henri Brest recalls the fact that his
name many years ago was celebrated
one on account Of it's connection with
the statue Of Venus. now one of the great
treasures in the Louvre museum In
Paris, and that brings to mind some in
teresting souvenirs connected with that
statue. 1t was, indeed, Henri Brest
who discovered the wonderful statue
just after 1T had been unearthed by q
peasant In 1890, brought 1t to Paris and
sold 1t to one Maoellus for the Marquis
di Riviere, who gave 1t to Louis XVIII.
The wonderful statue remained undis.
tur bed in the gallery of the Louvre, OF
which it was the principal ornament,
till the Franco Prussian war in 1870,
when, to save it from the possible pill.
lage Of the Germans, it was placed in an
immense padded OAK coffin, and burie d
mysteriousIy in great trench made te
receive it in the courtyard of the pre-
lecture of police. This was done in the
middle of the night, in the presence oi
very few witnesses, with the object OF
keeping the hiding place of the statue
perfectly secret. Afterward there was
great anxiety caused by the outbreak OF
the Commune and the setting fire to the
prefecture of police and to the palais ds
justice opposite. But when that insur.
rection had been put down the curatcri
Of the Louvre found that the statue had
suffered no deterioration.
The inscription on the pedestal of the
statue in the Louvre does not even men,
tion the name of Henri Brest. though II
does the other persons named above.
After Brest had sold it in Paris all sorts
of attempts, by all sorts of eminent
hands, were made to restore to her hel
missing arms, but, as she persisted in
looking ever SO much better without
arms than with them, the savans ulti
mately decided that she must have beer
built that way, and that way she must
be left.
