1t is a safe rule that you should always
buy little better tea than you can az
ford. The saying has an air of para
dox, but 1t may be taken as literally true.
For between ordinary tea and fancy tea
like Chase & Sanborn's package tea, there
is almost as much difference as between
drink and a food. The harder you
work, the more you need rest and re-
freshment of a strictly high-grade tea.
1t is not a question of what you can at
ford when health and strength are to be
considered. 1t Is a safe rule to practice
a little wise extravagance.

Troubles In the Philippines.

In his recent nessage to Congress
President Roosevelt declared that
there are still troubles ahead" In the
Philippine Islands. Theirs are for a
fact, and they are likely to continue
awhile. The war there, like the war in
South Africa, continues to prevail. The
people obstinately refuse to admit the
beauties of u benefcent government
that it is sought to impose upon them
against their will, by armed force,
Secretary Root reports over 1000 con.
hicts between our troops and the in
surgents for the year ending July LIST
last. in which 3, S54 natives we're killed,
1,193 wounded and 6, 572 captured. Our
losses, he says, In the same year were
245 killed, AZ wounded and 11S can.
tured. Our total losses since we began
the conquest Of tho islands have be.n
lis officers AMI 3,37S men killed, 2, S2s
officers and men wounded-a grand
total Of 6,321 casualties, not count ting
our losses by disease.
Approximately $3.50, 600, 600 of Ameri
can money will have been arent by the
close OF the next fiscal year in the con
quest of the Philippines. And an army
OF $1,000 men lie still indispensable to
hold down our incomplete conquest.
Besides the Losses of life and treasure
in this wide stretch of puwer un.
dreamed Of by the trainers of our
government, says the New York World,
we are sacrificing much more. The
annulment in the Philippines of that
great primary principle Of American
Iiberty-that governments derive ''theii
just powers from the consent Of the
Roverned"-is still the largest itom In
the bill of costs for our colonial ad.
venture In Asia.

Still nurse the ancient grudges?

And we will teach them whether

And Washington and all his fox
When their just claim was yielded.
In it Doth lisp, both learn, both pray,
Dirge death, and thus the ttther
Grows tighter, tenderer, every day,

Our ways are one. and one our aim,

From Duty not for glory;

Through its loved haunts together.

How quickly they would change their tack
And show the recreHnt feather,
Should Stars and Stripes and Union Jack,
But float mast-high together.
Now let us give one hearty grin
As By true men is given,

With sweeter manners, purer laws.

Ring out the narrowing lust of gold;
