German newspapers describe the ig-
norance OF some of the army recruits
as so remarkable that out OF group
of sixty-six men. twenty-five had new
er heard OF Bismarck. Others thought
him the emperor Of the French. or that
he was dead: while one brilliant can
didate for the honor OF being shot was
sure the Iron Chancellor was Hohen-
zollern. The English military Journal
which reports this mental poverty re-
marks charitabiy that analogous igno-
rance is found In other armies. A
German, however. who has no vision
OF the mighty work wrought for Ger
many by Bismarck is clearly pre-emi-
nent in Ignorance.

What causes the headaches and other
nervous troubles which plague so
many boys and girls In the schools
and so many students In the colleges
Steady, cheerful and reasonable appli-
cation of the mind Is not bad for any
body; It conduces to fine health by de-
veloping that vital energy-brain
force-which runs the whole physical
machine. Probably In nine cases out
OF ten the mischief is traceable to some
kind of disorderly living. to nocturnal
exci,ements. irregular hours, or the
waste of force In some foolish indulg-
ence. Here. for instance. is the state
ment of an experienced physician to
the effect that 20 per cent OF the ner-
vous diseases he has dealt with were
caused By tea and coffee. Professor
Spade holds that they are positively

DISPATCHES from Shanghai state that
the Chinese complain bitterly of the
fact that they do not possess a war
port for the five warships which are
being built for them abroad. and which
are due to arrive in Chinese waters this
summer. Unless weiHai-wei, occu-
pied by the Japanese. is evacuated.
which is doubtful. the Chinese have no
place in which to receive their new
warships. Commenting on this situa-
ton the Chicago Chronicle says: "The
man without a country has frequently
been made the subject of more or less
fanciful tales, but a national navy
without hailing port Is something
that has not yet occurred to romano
ers. The Chinese navy. however, fur
nishes an actual illustration OF such a
situation. The Peisin government,
which placed contracts with English
shlpwrights for feet of warships. now
finds Itself without port In which to
receive the vessels. Russia, Germany.
France and Japan have possessed
themselves OF every available harbor.
and the Chinese navy may only enter
Chinese ports by the courtesy of some
foreign power. Probably no such sit
uation ever existed before. 1t Is as

the thin white suits that are every

porting coin, writes Joseph Earle
Stevens, in the New York Post. Bank
notes are practically out of circula-
ton, and heavy Mexican dollars now
stand at the head of motley family
of fifty cent pieces, Spanish pesetas,
and huge coppers, to give weight
rather than value to the currency sys-
tenn. If you draw the first prize in

really feel that luck is after all some
thing tangible when it takes a heavy
Diary or two to haul the results of
your winnings from the government
office to the bank.
4 dollar is about all the coin that
properly clothed resident of Manila
can carry about with him, and. as it
generally turns out. he doesn't need
more, for the shopkeepers have all
been educated to recognize in the ia
