the letter of Civis," the first part
having appeared in previous

We treat these vampires who
traffic in blood and the birth
rights of the unborn as if they
were engaged in an honorable and
honest avocation. We lift our
hats to them as they whisk by the
barefooted woman and the little
street urchin, who go without
shoes and education that this ini-
quitous thing may feed and fatten
on their sacrifices, and we do it
too because they wear purple and
diamonds, without stopping to
think how they are paid for.
We invite them to all our
social functions. So, all in all,
it is not strange that they
should ask an extension, an en-
largement of scope and longer
hours for their business ? They
have reason to expect that it will
be granted. 1t is not strange

The GREAT COMBINATION
Effect Of The United States Becoming
a Great Naval Power.
Some European Nations Cannot Bear The
Strain Of Naval Rivalry Produced
BY Current Events.

The entrance of the United
States into the arena where the
world powers strive against each
other has had splendid result in
making her the fast friend of
Great Britain and 30 creating a
combination which, so long as it
lasts, may be regarded as irresisti
BILE. The idea of becoming great
naval power has taken hold on the
United States people, and it is
right to assume that they will not
rest till such they are. This de
velopment has, however, added to
other recent circumstances, set all
the nations to work enlarging
their fleets, and, as Britain must
have preponderance upon the
sea, it has thus laid new and gig
antic burdens upon her. The
Admiralty has, in view of this
sudden expansion of its liabilities,
postponed its estimates till July,
and the British people are look
ing for heavy demands. The
question of supremacy is now
largely one Of money. The strain
which the ornaments of Europe
impose on her productive indus
tries has already in many countries
reached the breaking point, and is
the main cause Of the discomfort
of which anti Semitic, agrarian
and bread riots are the occasional
indications. Germany is the only
member of the triple alliance that
can increase her feet. Austria
cannot be a naval power, and Italy
has bigger navy now than she
can support. France and Russia
offer the most serious probable
combination. France is pretty
we'll loaded, but it seems hard to
fix limit to what Russia may do
Now that she is for the first time
mistress of an open port in the
high seas, there has arisen in bel
a great access of naval ambition
In Russian dockyards or In the
hands of foreign contractors there
are at present in course of con-
struction no less than twelve first
class battleships, twelve torpedo
boat destroyers, and an unknown
number of torpedo-b boats. The
large number of first-class battle
ships indicates a determination
to make the heaviest line
the most effective, taking
time to bring up the deficiency il

An EXCEPTION.

Senator Vest has a favor
ite story which he has told
on the occasion of many a
political speech, but, so far
as known, never on the floor
of the United States Senate,
"A temperance lecturer
was struggling against odds
in Kentucky" says the Sen
ator. He was talking to a
not very large audience that
had been drawn to the hall
by curiosity. The effect Of
alcohol is to shorten life,
said the lecturer.
IAN old man in the rear
of the hall arose at that
juncture and said: You're
a liar!'
Z" 'Why?' inquired the ad-
vocate Of Adams ale.
/" Because, sir, I've been
drinking for seventy-6ve
years, and I'm ninety, and
am likely to live to be a 100.
| am strong enough to lick
you if you'll step outside.
"' Oh, no doubt, sir.
You're an exception, sir. If
you keep on drinking

patient old topper.

The original Declaration
of Independence is in so di-
lapidated a condition that
nowadays it is rarely if ever
exposed to public view. The
Ladies Home Journal was
recently granted special per-
mission by the Secretary Of
State to make a single ex-
posure of the document to
the camera, and will repro
duce the photograph, which
is a remarkably clear one, IN
the July issue of that mag
azine. Exposure to light

alton have faded the ink IN

imperishable ink, for his
name stands black and bold
on the parchment, which is
now kept in a steel safe, out
of the sunlight and out of the

THE Spring TINE.

The years as they roll
along and pass out and are
counted among the ceaseless
ages have their spring, time,
when the whole Of nature
shines resplendent with
beauty and it also has a sea-
son when natures beauty
fades. The trees become
naked, the birds have not the
merry voice as Of old, the
flowers wither and die
winter with its chilly blasts
and hoary frosts has come.
So has mankind the two sea-
sons The life that is now
in it's Writer has seen its
spring time, and the life now
spending a spring time will
surely find its winter. In
youth you should prepare for
the winter Of life, If you
wait until midsummer, win
ter will overtakc you and
your footprints will fade
from the sands of time with
out being a tailsman to the
passer,by. Youth, the time
of greatest advantages ard
possibilities, is often, too
often thrown away, 1t IS
the time when character is
formed. Often as the star
Of promise appears from
under the hills, and is wont
to settle over some young lie,
it is crushed and made to

tamination. | have known

Spanish who seems to have
a proper conception of the
situation. He says:
Spain went perilously near
sacrificing her honor in the
interest of peace, making a
stand only when further con-
cessions would have involved
her disgrace and effacment
as a nation. This she will
never do, and in this resolve
the new cabinet is as thor
oughly determined as the
old. The new cabinet enter
tains no illusions. 1t is aware
that weakness and poverty
are opposed to strength and
wealth, but spain is in the
position of q duelist, bound
to defend his honor against
the gross insults of a more
powerful antagonist, who,
although he is convinced that
the result is almost certain
death, yet feels the force of
the prlnciyle of "noblesse
oblge," "
Spain prefers a possible
defeat to a certain disgrace.
Ministers know that the
moral sympathies of the pow
ers are with Spain, and that,
while hesitating to under
take the responsibility of
action which might lead to a
greater war, they may event
ually intervene from motives
of interest and public policy
on behalf of Spain.
Another opinion of the
Yankee follows: 1t is Groal
an editorial, printed in the
Ell Heraldo, the leading news
paper of San Juan, Porto
Rico:
We know now how the
Yankee fights.
On sea neither his vessels,
with nickel steel armor, nor
his many cannon of twenty
centimcter caiiber are of any
use to him.

The differences between men and
women are well marked in many ways,
but it may not be generally known how
great this difference is in the matter of
color appreciation, not to speak of color
blindness. A large percentage of men
are lmpervious to the sensation of color
they neither notice nor appreciate it
Women, Oh the contrary, like many
animals, are strongly attracted and re.
PEELED by color, which to the average
male mind remain a mystery. The or
binary man is quite satisfied if his help
mate dresses in black or in the prove
bially agreeable white muslin. Why she
should seek for harmonies and novelties
Of color, why she should arrange and
match and discuss various hues With
the seriousness he would give to a bust
ness matter, passes his understanding.
And just as color leaves a man cold,
so does form a woman, which accounts
for her indifference to statuary and her
frequent incapacity for drawing. Louisa,
marcbioness of Waterford, was an in
stance of this. Her coloring was superb
and the envy of artists, her drawing de-
fective and poor, and when she tried
late in life to learn to draw she only
succeeded in spelling her fine instinct
for color. London Graphic.

Christening Battleships.

1t is not believed hat the origin of
christening the warship was due to an
act Of irreverence al a mock baptism,
but that its earliest inception was the
human sacrifice, then the libations Of
wine of Greece and the north, and, with
the spread of the Christian religion, the
blessing of the battleship, a custom OBJ
served today in all Roman Catholic
countries. The object was the same in
both the pagan and Christian rites, to
make the career of the ship successful
by an appeal to the protection of IN
known powers. Even the superstitions
of those old days come down to US. We
may not steal wood to make a swift
keel for our new ship in the night, on
the principle that thieves run fast in
the darkness, but ships sail out of Mar
blehead today with q broom nailed to
the mast, and no crew will start out on
a Friday unless under oompulsion.-
