REPLIES TO GAGE.
Italy Says She Doesn't Export Any
Sugar


Washington, July Is.-secretary Cage
now has before him a lengthy commu-
nication from the italian government.
forwarded to him by the state depart
ment. relative to his order placing 70
differential duty on Italian sugar. be-
cause of information received that
Italy paid a bounty on her sugar ex-
ports. Mr. Cages order was ISSUED
about a month ago. and soon there
after a brief declaration was made by
the Italian authorities to the state de-
partm ent that Italy paid no export
duty on sugar This declaration has
now been supplemented by a fun pre-
sentatiOn OF the Italian position on the
subject.
from Rome a few days ago. 1t is
temperate in tone, but presents quite
positively the Italian view Of the law
now IN force. It IS not SO much an
argument as a reference TO the laws
in order to show nothing analogous
to a bounty is paid Emphasis Is laid
upon two points. first. that italy does
not In fact pay any bounty. and does
not up to the present time export any
sugar: second, that If the production
of Italian sugar reaches a point where
exports can be made, the law does not
give any rebate to the producers in
case they export their goods
Mr.. Cages answer Will be made
through the state department. and
probably viii be ready to be cOmmuui-
Gated to the italian authorities within
the next few days. Tt is expected to
der imposing differentials. as the order
itself expressed some doubt and stated
that pending further investigation tl8
higher rates would be I'm posed.

Soon Fall From Grace
New York, July 18.-The Right Rev
John AcKin. Episcopal missionary
bishop Of Toxic, Japan, has arrived in
this city on his way to the general con-
Vention of his church, which IS TO be
held in San Francisco early in the fall
Bishop NcKim, speaking OF the rel1g-
ious conditions in Japan at the present
time, said:
THE RELIGIOUS awakening, of which
we in Japan have heard so much, can
hardly be regarded as of permanent
benefit Some years ago there was
similar one. but its effects soon died
out The Japanese are very excitable
race. they are quickly brought to a
religious white heat, cooling of again
almost as quickly. AS q rule, after a
revival movement. the percentage OF
those falling away from Christianity is
greater than before
THE japanese, too. are a very indif-
ferent race in regard to religious mat
ters generally. Nominally. they are al
most all Euddhists. with perhaps a
sprinklng Of Shintoians, but it can
be safely said that Japan has no ma
tional church.
Success in missionary effort depends
largely upon the proper organization OF
the system of management. For that
reason Methodist workers IN Japan are
more successful than the Baptists- Con-
gregationalists are not now making the
progress that was made by that body
policy seems to be one of disintegra-
ton and many of its converts become
rationalists. Our church seems to be
making more Roadway and what ap-
pears to be more permanent progress
than any other body

Art Displayed In Dress-Trials Of Women

ART IN DRESS.

The artistic faculty Is one Of the in
herited traits of woman. 1t is betrayed
in her earliest efforts at adornment of
her person and surroundings. 1t is the
temperament of woman, as well as her
natural birthright, to guard the beauti-
full in life, and to make her whole ex-
istence a visible manifestation of 1t.
Civilization has given to her oppor-
tunities In this direction denied her in
the past, says the Ledger Monthly.
She has been emancipated from the
slavery of conditions which narrowed
and destroyed those possibilities of per-
sonal expression born within her. Yet
even in barbaric times she was not
blind to the influence of personal
adornment. The evolution of her dress
may have been from the rude blanket
and wild boar's skin to the modern
silks and furs of unrivalled beauty and
plcturesqueness; but there was al
ways, even in the beginning, a method
of wearing the garments that betrayed
the dormant gifts. She could be artis-
tic even with the simplest and rudest OF
garments.
The art OF dress becomes factor OF
Importance, not only in the life OF the
woman who devotes her time to it, but
in all those who associate with her.
The expression of her artistic tempera-
ment may be manifested in no other
way than that of dress, and yet she
may produce an effect of Unreasonable
Importance on the world. 1t is hardly
consistent to belittle the effect OF wom-
ans dress even when carried to an ex-
IRENE, and thoughts Of it absorb all
other considerations of life. The paint
er is justified, according to human
standards, in devoting all his time and
strength to the production Of beauty on
his canvas; and the poet is considered
legitinately employed if he merely
strives to express in the highest artistic
form those thoughts and emotions OF
love which come to him in the highest
degree The decorator, the musician
and the singer are all appealing to the
sense Of sight or hearing through beau
tiful forms of sound.
The woman who understands the art
of personal adornment finds gratifica-
ton Of artistic expression in her dress.
ohe studies it from many points of
view; considers the harmony Of colors
and style; views herself apart from her
personality and environments; and
finds in the whole work a service Of
love which is little lower than that
which the poet or painter feels for his
productions. Dress performs the dou-

WHY DO THEY.

A question which has come thun-
dering down the corridors of time,
bowling across buried cities and dead
empires is this. Why do girls giggle?
The giggling age begins at II and
lasts till the girl is married. 1t gen.
orally stops then, and afterward she
does not always even smile so often as
her husband would like.
But before marriage! If two or three
girls are together, their heads will be
in close proximity and they talking
mysteriously and laughing ito kill" A
man has just passed by, perhaps, and
he is the subject of their mirth. Or is
1t mirth?

Looks like jay. doesn't he? Tee
