PARIS, JAN 3-The opinion has been ex-
pressed in official circles that the modus

regarding Newfoundland would be ex-

be no disposition upon the part of France
to take advantage of Great Britain's I'M
comfortable situation in the 'rransvaal to
force an unfair settlement of a matter
not regarded as vital. France is i'm the posi-
ton of being willing to sell her fishing
rights, but she considers ii proper for
Great Britain TO make the first PROPOSE
ton. Thus the matter stands in allegiance.

THE RIGHT USE OF THE TONGUE.

Make right and holy use of the
tongue, writes the Rev. T. Dewitt

Happiness" in the Ladies Home
Journal. It is loose at one end
and can swing either way, but it
is fastened at the other end to the
floor of your mouth, and that
makes you responsible for the way
it wags. Xanthus, the philoso-
pher, told his servant that on the
morrow he was going to have some
friends to dine, and told him to
get the best thing he could find in
the market. The philosopher and
his guest sat down the next day
at the table. They had nothing
but tongue-four or five courses
of tongue-tongue cooked in this
way and tongue cooked in that
way, and the philosopher lost his
patience and SAID to the servant:
Didn't | tell you to get the best
thing in the market?" He said,
81 did get the best thing in the
market. Isn't the tongue the or
gan of sociality, the organ of kind
ness, the organ of Worship"
Then Xanthus said: Tomorrow
l want you to get the worst thing
in the market. On the morrow
the philosopher sat at the table,
and there was nothing there but
tongue-four or five courses of
tongue-tongue in this shape and
tongue in that shape, and the
philosopher again lost his patience
and said: Didn't | tell you to
get the worst thing in the market. :"
The servant replied: 81 did, for
isn't the tongue the organ of BIAS
phemy, the organ of defamation,
the organ of lying?" Employ the
tongue which God so wonderfully
created as the organ of taste, the
organ of articulation, to make
others happy, and in the service
of God.

Hon. Bourke Cochran, of New
York, made speech at the Mont
gomery conference. He boldly
advocated the repeal of the fif-

constitution. He argued that it

it had been nullified by the
states; that it had been lynched,
SO to speak, by the people of the

Cancellation of the theoretical
status of the negro, under the
constitution, should be reconcilia-
ton with his actual status in the
public opinion of the country.
He maintained that his repeal
was the best for the negro as we'll
as the white man, since both races
had to live together, to prosper
together, or go down together.
Every source of irritation between
the two should be removed and
the fifteenth amendment was the
greatest. He asserted that the
path of the negro to political and
social rights lay through the de-
velopment Of the unit, the indi-
vidual, and that the only means
was by industrial education.
