DANGER IN THE PRESS.

But the drawback, the danger of all de-
mocracies, is the unrestrained liberty of
the press, and the Fashoda incident gave
the newspapers of France md England a
grand opportunity, Of which they eagerly
awaited themselves, to hurl sneers and
that, how can the French forget that in
cident when a Minister of the English
crown, perhaps the foreign minister nay,
the Prime Minister of tomorrow, does
not hesitate to refer to possible English
humiliation as French Fashoda?'
All this, however, is nothing compared
to the manner in which the English press
behaved towards France during the Drey
fus trial. Because justice is not admins
tered in France as it is in England, that
trail caused nearly the whole OF the Eng
glish press to drag France in the mud
for months and months.
Nothing is more resented by nations
than strangers mixing in their home az
fairs. Nations, like private individuals.
wish to do their own family washing at
home. The opportunity to "erase France
fro mthe list Of civilized nations was so
tempting that many correspondents of Lon
don papers dared not speak their own
minds. One of the most famous of them.
now dead, had to confess that, from the
beginning of the Rences trial. he felt that
if Dreyfus' guilt could not be proved. he
would certainly be unable to convince his
judges of his innocence. Under the cir
cumstances. an English tribunal would
have acquitted him, though perhaps WITH
out adding "honorably." The Scotch
would have said: Not proven that IS
to say, Not guilty, but don't do it
again. Now French verdicts, rightly or
q think wrongly, are given in the follow
ing manner: We cannot prove that the
accused is guilty: but, in our soul and
conscience. we believe him guilty, and
therefore we cannot ncqut him."

A GOOD STORY

A certain young lady in del
icate health was advised by her
doctor to take a Tablespoons
full of SCOTS emulsion Of cod
liver oil after dinner once a
day-and found herself almost
suddenly growing robust.
So small a dose is by no
means the rule; the rule is
whatever the stomach will bear
not more. Another rule is:
take it on every least occasion,
but not too much; don't over
do it.

A. NATIONAL DEFECT.

It should be added that suspicion is the
national defect of the French, as jealousy
is their national vice. So strong and
deep-rcoted is this characteristic that a
Frenchman acquitted by a court of JUS
tice. Is looked askance at, and stunned
by his acQuaintances, if not. of course, by
his intimate friends. There is never
smoke without fire, they say.
Now, all this is eignored by the masses
Of the English people. who, also have that
unhappy knack of always advising the
people of the earth now they should act
and even how they should think, that is,
as the English do act and do think. This
IS John Bulls characteristic foiDle, and he
knows it.
II the French are utterly ignorant of
the modes of thought, the manners and
customs Of the English. the English are
just as ignorant on the subject Of France
The two nations have absolutely nothing
to reproacl each other for And it may
be said that France and England, like all
the other nations on EARTH are neither
better nor worse the one than the other
but simply different, different in their
manners, tastes, virtues and vices, that is
all.
Since the Dreyfus affair the French pa
pers have had their revenge.
They seized a grand opportunity when
the English went to war, "to annihilate
a brave little nation Of peasants in order
to rob them Of their freedom and indie
pendence.'
Even IN America. with the exception
of the Fifth Avenue aristocracy, I found
practically everybody pro-Boer, and Shout
ing at the top of their voices that all the
Americans should be in favor of the Beers,
who, after all, were only fighting what, a
hundred years ago, their forefathers sue
cessfu!ly fought, the shakns-off of the
OpDreSSOrS yoke.
