ALL EYES ON GERMANY.

1t is curious that the German Emperor's
protestations of respect for the Monroe doc
trine end the apparent recognition of that
doctrine by the German government fall
on deaf ears in the United States. Nobody
here believes that the Emperor has any
respect for the doctrine of itself or that
the German government has the slightest
notion of steering national policy as if the
Monroe doctrine were well recognized inter-
national law. Americans are convinced
that Germany has more or less definite
designs on parts Of South America, and we
Monroe doctrine will be quickly brushed
aside in the realization Of the designs.
At the same time our skepticism as to
the Teuton's sincerity is accompanied n
the best of good will toward the empire
and the German people. International ha-
tired and prejudice have nothing to do with
our attitude toward Germany. We are as
fond of Germany as of any other nation.
and the ties of common blood draw us al
most as close to the Germans as to the
British.
German and American policy must one day
conflict If they continue to travel along
present lines. The German expansion poll

harmonized, assuming, as we do, that
South America Is the ideal theater of
German expansion-the one great portion
powers have not put their claws, and now
occupied by weak and demoralized states
which would be as chan before the mailed

We do not blame Germany for coveting
South America; we would do the same in
her place. At the same time we firmly feel
that We must stand by the doctrine of the
inviolability OF the American continents.
1t Is not a question Of right or wrong; il
is a conflict of interests. 1t is conflict that
must be compromised fought out.
The magazines and the newspapers are
full of articles which show the drift of
American opinion on this question. Stephen
Bonsal writes about IL in the North Amer

ii as a plain proposition. Secretary OF War

 The smartest cat in all the city of Scranton. Pa. the miners say. lives at the Cayuga mine. Delaware. Lacka- wanna and Western property, at Prov .idence. a suburb of Scranton. Toby is "a medium sized Maltese. about three years old. and that he has not had his neck broken before this is a perpetual wonder to the eight hundred miners and colliery operatives at the Cayuga mine. The Cayuga is one of the deepest shafts in the Lackawanna coal fields, the. lower working. where Toby makes his home, being more than 500 feet deep. It is a model mine in it's equipment, and Toby, apparently, is trying to live up to it's reputation as an up-to-date n1in-s ing plant Electric lights and electric hauling motors were installed in the mines three or four years ago, when Toby was baby cat. and he got used to the somewhat terrifying appearance of the bug shaped motors, with gleam- ing headlights, darting through the winding chambers 500 feet from the sun light, dragging after them trips" of ten or a dozen small coal cars, holding two tons of freshly mined coal Toby rides on the motors from one end of the mines to the other.s The northern end oe the lower working is under Price burg. three miles from the bottom of the shaft in Providence, and Toby makes the trip on one of the motors every day. and sometimes twice a day.
 Toby has his favorite motorman. His affection toward them apparently is somewhat graduated according as they save him choice bits of meat from their dinner pails. Toby will blink uncon- cernedly as some of his more distant" acquaintances among the motormen whisk by. but when real good and tried friend comes bowling through the blackness Toby will brace himself, ex- actly time the speed of the motor, and then-"Plump!" he will jump from alongside the track to a spot just be- yond the headlight.

A NEW ROUTE
The Road to weIlyiIie.

It is by change of diet that one can get fairly on the road to health, after years of sickness, for most ill health comes from improper feeding.
 What boon it is to shake off coffee sickness and nervous headaches as some can if determined upon. .E
 One woman accomplished it in this way: "A few years ago I suffered ter ribly from sick and nervous headaches being frequently confined to my bed < two or three days at a time, the att taclxs coming on from one to four times in every month. I tried medi- cines of all kinds, but could get no real relief until my parents finally persuad- ed me to quit the use of coffee alto gether and try Postum Food Coffee. It had come to a point where I was so utterly miserable that was willing to make any reasonable trial.
 \ A person couldn't believe what fol- lowed, but the results speak for them selves; that was two and a-half years ago, and I have never tasted coffee since. I use Postum not only for it's delicious flavor but more for the good it has done me. All of my troubles disappeared as if by magic, and I have for the past two years been doing all the work for my family of six. I sel- dom have even slight headache, and T would not give up my Postum and go back to coffee now unless deliberately intended to commit suicide.
 'tAll of my neighbors, it seems to me, now use Postum in place of coffee, and some of them have been doing so for several years with splendid results from the health point of view" Name given by Postum Co.,, Battle Creek, Mich.

The Geographical Journal for August contains highly interesting article on Earth Movements in the Bay of Ma ples." The variations since classic times of the conformation of the coast have always been source of keen in terest to geologlsts. That they have not all been due to the neighborhood of Ve- suvius, or to remoter volcanic causes, seems to be certain. For instance, the island of Capri is of limestone forma- tion, and yet with the centuries 1t has tilted as if on an axis, so that Roman buildings, notably those of Tiberius, are partially submerged. And on the other side of the island the old water line, still clearly showing the erosion of the waves, is as much as twenty feet above the present sea level.
