SOME FRENCH HONOR.

We can now turn from the considera- tion of Spanish honor to the considera- tion of French honor, and we may find that there Is quite as much and as good honor in Spain as in France. When Colonel Henry, who has done what he could to vindicate his honor and the honor of the French army, was brought before the French minister of war the other day he began by denying that he forged the letter. "Come, come," said the minister of war. "No agent ever gave 1t to you. You wrote it in pencil to disguise your handwriting the bet ter. You are the forger." Colonel Henry's speech grew thick as he denied the charge, which was again repeated. "On your honor as a soldier" said M Cavaignac more gently, "did you or did you not write that letter." Colonel Henry then replied: Since you appeal to my soldierly honor, it was I who wrote it."
 A colonel who could forge a letter for the purpose of convicting an innocent man, then lie about it. finally confess his crime on his "soldierly honor" and then commit suicide, must have had some idea of honor. His confession and his suicide show that he had.

HAVANA UNDER SPANISH RULE.
A Perpetual Menace to the Health of
 the People of America.

A Perpetual Menace to the Health of
 the People of America.
 If the only outcome of the present war were the disappearance of yellow fever from Cuba and the cleaning of the presidential port of Havana, this country would not have fought in vain. That Havana, in it's existing unsant- tary condition Is menace to every neighboring people and the state is an assertion that can be made without fear of contradiction. That both the town and harbor, by the application of lit- tie engineering skill can be rendered as healthy as any in the south is, in the opinion of the experts, quite practice able; but that any steps in this direc- tion will be taken under Spanish rule is just as surely not to be looked for. Therefore the sooner this rule ceases in Cuba the better it will be for the pub lie health of America and of the world at large. If proof were needed that yellow fever were essentially disease with flourishes amid filthy surround ings, and that when these favoring conditions are removed it abates, and in some instances wholly disappears, we may cite Jamaica, Mexico and the Danish West Indian Islands as exam pies of the good results following prop CT sanitary measures, Indeed north of the equator Havana stands as al- most the sole and certainly as the chief source of the particular form of danger to the commercial nations of the world. ENrny ifc Ivy fn (tI11N try has been the principal sufferer from Spanish neglect of the laws of health, and undoubtedly whatever form of government may be decided upon for Cuba, the authorities at Washington will insist that the unsanitary condi- tions now prevailing at Hvana shall no longer continue. Many suggestions have already been made regarding the sanitation of Havana, and it is claimed by those experienced in such matters that there are no difficulties in the path which cannot easily be overcome by American ingenuity and perseverance. The geographical configuration of Gu ba, with hills of considerable height at a short distance from the coast, lends itself to an efficient system of drainage.
 Dr. George Homan of St. Louis read before the medical society of the hospi- tai alumni of that city on May of this year paper entitled "The Sanitary Redemption of Havana" in which the need of reform is eloquently pointed out, as also the means whereby the de- sired ends may be reached. He says: Yellow fever, being essentially dis ease of sea level, thriving best in con- bined moisture, filth and heat, clinging especially to the foreshore, wharves, docks, ,sship holds, etc, Havana presents special conditions for it's growth and harboring, and therefore requires spec ial means for it's eradication. This im- plies one of two things, to wit: Either

4 -NEW CHAPTER,

The serial and serious story which the Weather Man is writing Is becom- ing decidedly interesting. The latest chapter, which appears this morning, is entitled Cooler in the middle of the day" That Is rather taking title, and a pleasing change from Warmer on the coast" and "Continued high tenn perature." Perhaps the next chapter will be entitled Cooler at both ends of the day" and in the course of time there may be 8 chapter headed Cool all day" But Cooler in the middle of the day" will do for a starter It shows ingenuity and proper appre- citation of the value of surprise. Those who have lived through the story so far will be anxious, not to say glad, to see the end of 1t, for though it is ex- tremely interesting it is rather wear ing on the nerves. It is long time since a story of such warmth and power has been written.

If you want to live long and help life insurance companies get your life in- sured and abstain "teetotally" from the use of intoxicating drink. Of course so abstain, but they need not be con- sidered just now. James Meikle, F. I. A., F. F. A., the well known English actuary, has just compiled some signi- ficant facts showing the actual longev- ity among policy-holders who are known to be total abstainers. MT. Meik1e's observations cover a period of fourteen years, give the experience of British life company, and because of their peculiar significance are attract ing general attention just now among actuaries in this country and abroad. He shows that between the ages of twenty-five and thirty four among pol icy holders whose lives aggregate 12,363 years, only forty-eight deaths occurred. The actuaries expected (according to the Healthy Males tables of the Insti- ute of Actuaries) 92.7 deaths in this class, showing ratio of actual to ex-, pected deaths of 51.7 per cent Be- tween ages thirty-five and forty four, with S,40S years of life under observa- tion, twenty-nine deaths occurred, or but 34.4 per cent. of those expected. The next group, ages forty-five to fifty four, APP years, showed but thirty-two deaths, or 51.7 per cent. of those ex- pected.

New Orleans paper says, soak into the grain and make it hard. The result is that more cooking is needed, and even then the rice often remains hard, and, to that extent, is made indigestlble. In addition the oil adds to the weight of the grain and thus again is the buyer cheated. The Louisiana legislature, at It's recent session, undertook to correct the evil by making the use of oil or parattin in the cleaning of rice mis- demeanor punishable by fine or im- prisonment. The law is more drastic than a German one on the same sub ject, the German statute merely requir- ing that the adulterated rice be labelled "oil finish" or ''paraffin finish"
