Cuban women are pretty. Also, they
hold on to their beauty until they are
long past the age when the fairness
usually leaves, says the Chicago Times
Herald. The chief features OF this
beauty are: Eyes as black as sloes,
hair like the ravens wing, figures that
are charming, a manner that IS fascl-
mating and voice that Is melodlous,
we'll modulated, sweet and confiding.
Cuban women are not all smokers.
When an average man conjures up
vision of a Castilian or her sister in the
Gem of the Antilles he usually places
cigarette in the mouth Of the black
eyed beauty he has brought to his
mental eye. He is mistaken. That is, as
a rule he is. There are exceptions, how
ever. and a good many. But the we'll
reared, dainty, charming Cuban girl
does not smoke. Not any more than
the sister she Is likely to have in the
United States. What ! mean is that It
does not follow that because girl is a
Cuban she necessarily smokes.
The average Cuban girl is not as
dark as a mulatto She is more like a
Yankee girl who has passed all SUM

succeeded in accomplishing tan thai

best Of it all is that this prettiness re-

ESTABLISH ms STATUS.

There is no true and well-meaning
citizen Of Wilmington who would care
to have our Municipal Court wiped out
of existence by constitutional provi-
sion, Legislative action or the dictum Of
any superior tribunal. The purpose
which il has served for years, and
which it is still serving, comes so close
to public interest, safety and morality
THAT its status as a public tribunal
should be strengthened and it's powers
extended, rather than weakened and
curtailed, or wiped out altogether.
We are glad THAT the action pending
in the Superior Court was brought, be-
cause there should not be the least
doubt harbored in the public mind as
to the status Of an inferior court which
deals 50 largely with the lawless ele-
ments Of this city and performs a most
important and beneficial service in
making our city safe, comfort
able and pleasant for those
who have a Wholesome regard for laws
passed for the protection of the per-
Honal and property rights of their fell
lows. Uncertainty as TO the standing of
the court would beget dlstrust, and
from distrust TO contempt is but a
short step. In the eyes OF those who
are interested THE Municipal Court
should rest upon foundations so sound
that II cannot be shaken by those who
find It interposed between them and
their unrighteous purposes.

ouR cANAprAN TRlApE.

The Louisville Courier Journal, which
is one Of the oldest Of Western news
papers, has the following sensible edi-
torial comment on the failure OF our
country to take full advantage of OPP
portunities for competing with Great
Britain for Canadian trade:
While we are making a reciprocity
treaty to let in French wines and bran
dies at reduced rates, we are not doing
anything to promote trade with our
nearest neighbor, Canada. Our exports
TO that country are about 100000 600 a
year in value, while our imports are
only about $4,000, 900. Under the new
Canadian tariff Great Britain gets a
preference OF 1917 per cent. in duties
over the United States. On August 1
next this preference will be raised 70
25 per cent. We have an advantage
over Great Britain in the matter of
proximity, but the difference in the tar
iff rate will go far to neutralize this.
The United States Is not absolutely
shut out from this preferential rate
The Canadian Government is quite
willing to give us the benet Of il, but
they desire us to give something in ex-
Nhange. Great Britain, being a free
trade country, already admits most Ca.
madam products free. It is this con.
sideration and not natural love and af
fection, that causes Canada to give
preference to Great Britain She will
give us the same preference If we max,
certain concessions on Canadian good
imported into the United States. Thi
would put us on an equality with Grea
Britain as 10 the tariff, and allow us {,
get the full benefit Of our proximity
That our export trade would be greatl,
benefited by it cannot be doubted. AM
it is rather absurd 10 say that thi
country cannot compete with Canad
in the commodities which she wishes Z
export to this country
