On one of the lanais, close to the
beach at Waikiki, it is the custom at
the dinner table to drink, at the full of
the moon, toast from Rudyard Kip

ITO the cool of our deep verandas-
To the blaze Of our jewelled main,
To the night, to the palms in the

During his recent visit in England
DR.. Maxwell met Mr.. Kipling and re-
lated the incident of the frequent
drinking of toast in the words of his
poem. Mr.. Kipling said that he was
quite familiar with the Waikiki beach
and the beauty of the union of lanC
and ocean views about it. Mr.. Louis
Stevenson had he said, often described
the place to him, with many details

" STATESM ANSHIP."

The people, and there are many of
them. who believe that important mat
tiers OF State, are discussed with the
utmost solemnity and dignity, may
read the following account Of the in
terview of M Pouhier-Quartier with
France OF an indemnity which was fin
ally fixed at 81 900 100000 but which
Bismarck had insisted on, should be
much greater:
"Pouhier-Quartier. a hard-headed
Norman, was appointed by the French
Government to negotiate with the Ger
man chancellor the terms of the indem-
nifty after the FTanco-German War.
The chancellor received his visitor
with great ceremony, and gave him an
excellent dinner. followed by deep po-
tations. They drank Rhenish wine and
French wine. and the old Norman
showed no sign of weakening on the
indemnity Then they drank Bis
marck." a tremendous mixture OF
champagne and stout, and still the
Norman head was clear and obstinate.
Next morning at o'clock, Bismarck,
in full uniform, burst into his visitors
bedroom, and threatened that II his
terms were not agreed to, the German
armies would resume hOstilitieS at
once. The old Norman, in his night
cap, sat UP in bed, as cool as ever, and
vigorously refused to yield. Then the
chancellor broke into hurricane OF
mirth, seized the old gentleman by both
hands, wrung them warmly. and owned
himself beaten. For the first time he
had met a diplomatist who was his
match in will and courage.
The only occasion in our own diplo-
matte history, when the example of
Bismarck might have been followed
with success, was that which involved
the payment of indemnity to Japan.
At that time, the method adopted by
Bismarck was not recorded in any OF
the books on international law, and
therefore our Minister Of Foreign Re
Iations is excused from failing to fol-
low this precedent. Without knowl-

q" THANKSGIVING SUSPENSE"

Wewrite over our doors this morning
the word Thanksgiving. With high
resolution we commit ourselves 10 the
taxing of the digestive powers beyond
human endurance, as a sign of graft
tude, and millions OF people, after en-
joying some happy hours will go down
in dyspeptic sleep tonight. II is the
way of the world.
The splenfor OF the day, however, is
in the reunion Of some millions of
families, the blazing on the hearths Of
those kindly fires, which warm the
flesh and blood Of those who have been
separated, and today, arr together
again.
But upon this day also, there are
many thousands of families, who write,
not Thanksgiving" but Suspense"
over the door. For the sword is not
yet sheathed. 1t yet hangs in the air
by thread. The great guns are only
1imbered up. The muskets are stacked
in the field and not in the arsenal.
The women know it. They live in
of the prairie far over the mainland.
The hearts Of these mothers, sisters,
wives and sweethearts are leagues be
yond the sea, in the strange lands with
the boys who are ''in the east by the
sea, and by the sea in the west" In
each heart, infinite in its capacity of
love, God only taken into confidence,
there is the secret and abiding hope
that one will be brave and return a
hero.
1t is said that there is no war today.
But there is war. Disease still flies its
flag from Cuba TO the Philippines. This
awful ally of war never declared or
agreed to an armistice. He remains
restless, vigilant and implacable. Did
you not hear, yesterday, the bursting
of three volleys out on the still air OF
our valley? 1T was its signal Of con-
quest. 1t defies MaXims and rapid
firers. and earth works. The women
these mothers and wives know it, on
prairie or mountain, in a thousand
homes, and are now on their knees
beseeching the Christ of the seven
wounds to intercede for them, that
the cup may pass their lips. For these,
it is a day of supplication, and 'Sus-
pense'' is written across their doors.
Since language was written
no sharper cry of anguish has been ex-
pressed in words, than that Of the
Italian mother, over the death of her
boys in the ransom OF Italy 1t is
printed in another place.
'Dead!-one of them shot by the sea
in the west,
And one of them shot in the east by
the sea!
Both! both my boys,-If in keeping
the feast
You want a great song for your Italy
free,
Let none look at mel
The women are the real sufferers,
when men, by the mysterious order of
Providence, must build the highways
of Christian civilization with the
bodies of those created in the image of
God. The glory of it, if there is glory,
is not theirs. The agony of it, and
there is agony. is theirs with their love
to consecrate it.
