Draw upon sheet of paper an empty
cage, and then, near the cage, draw bird.
The problem is to make this bird enter the
cage.
Place a visiting card between the two
figures, holding the card perpendicularly
ON the paper. Press the end of your nose
on the border of the card and look at the
cage and the bird. You will thus see the
cage with your left eye and the bird with
your right, but in a moment the bird will
seem to move, then to enter the cage. All
you have to do is to copy the figure at the
right of the illustration, place your visit
ing card on the line ABB and put yourself
opposite the light SO that the card will not
throw shadow. Then look at it for a
second or two and the phenomenon will
appear, provided your card is not too wide.
AS bit of parlor magic you can present

Undoubtedly the wish was father to
the thought which seems to have ema
mated originally from the brain of some
British editor that the United States,
Great Britain and Japan should form an
alliance to prevent the further aggres-
sion Of Russia against Japan and else
where. Such an idea is greatness. The
American government will follow the
Washington doctrine while time lasts
and avoid entangling alliances with Eu-
ropean and other powers. And, even if
this Were not tie case, why should the
United States form an alliance with
Great Britain against Russia? From the
beginning OF our republic till now Rus
STA has been the best friend and the only
consistent friend the United States has
ever had in Europe. She stood our friend
when England, only for her influence.
would have recognized the Southern
Confederacy. She also stood our friend
at q critical period earlier in our history.
Shall we clap our best friend in the face
just to please q nation that except for
trade purposes is not our friend at all?
Not il VT know it. The true policy will
be for japan and Russia to get together
and have a friendly understanding. Then
shey can defy their mutual enemies

Professor Il. ". Jenks of Cornell
university is Of opinion that il would
be a tremendous service to 1.-THE public"
for some great rich man to enJlow a
newspaper. He should set aside for it
SO much money that it would live. if
living it could be called, whether any
body subscribed for it or read it or not.
It's management should be in the bands
Oh trustees of Integrity, who would
run 1t III the interest Of all the pure,
elevated and unseltish sentiments of the
day. 1T would be expected to give
carefully written. moderate opinions on
both sides" The professor thinks such
an endowed newspaper might have a
stronger tendency toward elevating the
political tone than a dozen new univer-
sites.
Yes, yes! Very fine this. But if such
a paper We're endowed and started in
three months time it would be as stupid
through and through as an essay by a
college professor. 1t would be deader
than the Dead sea Nobody would read
it any more than he now reads The
Congressional Record or q patent Office
publication. Does not the professor
know that a state church is the most
stupid and nearest lifeless Of any?
A paper that cannot support itself
and make a good living for it's editor
and the other people who work on it
has no reason for being. Moreover,
there are today a number Of privately
owned newspapers that do almost ex-
actly what the professor suggests in the
way Of being per fectly truthful and re-
liable as to news and likewise in giving
moderately expressed views on both
sides of a question. Moreover, some Of
these papers are among the richest and
most widely read journals in America.
Go to with your foolery about an n
dowed newspaper!
