Famous men and famous judges of
beauty have differed very greatly in
their idea Of what constitutes II.
Byron liked glossy hair clustering
around a white, smooth brow; deli
catsiy arohod eyebrows and glowing
checks frequently suffused with
bushes.
Spenser very explicitly described his
style of comeliness. II consisted In
eyes like snpphires, teeth like pearls, a
forehead like ivory, hair like gold and

Bhakespeare's beauties always pos
sossed n very white and alabasterliko

Bcotts heroines were generally soft
eyed and penslve, with sweeping eye

The WiId QIrnne.

Perhaps the most difficult Of all wild
animals to capture is the giraffe. In
addition to being very rare CRATES are
exceedingly timid and are very swift
footed. There Is no special way 10 cap
ture n giraffe, as almost every way has
been tried, and all have been almost
equally unsuccessful. The method which
has occasionally resulted In a capture
is by using a long cord. at each end OF
which IL a round weight. This cord ID
thrown by tho hunter in such manner
as to wind round the animals legs,
either bringing II TO the ground or rem.
dering II incapable OF escaping before
II Is made n prisoner. Most OF tho
CRATES In captivity have been caught
by chance when young.

THEHAGUE, AFTER ALL.
Will Probably Decide the Dispute
with Venezuela for All the
Oisputants.
LIKELY TO BE SOME CONDITIONS
Before the Matter Will Go Before the
Arbitrators-British Editor Not
Supremacy Happy Yet.

Washington, Dec. 27-The powers
have agreed to leave the Venezuelan
embroglio to The Hague tribunal. Notes
were received from all of them, in
Guiding Venezuela. President Roose-
welt and all of the officials here feel
greatly relieved. The cabinet met ear
ly yesterday and the notes from the
powers were read The Venezuelan
question was the principal and prac-
tically the only topic of general con-
Germ under consideration. Secretary
Hay presented the net results of his ca
BILE correspondence with the govern
ment at London, Berlin, Rome and
Caracas. In accordance with the sug-
gestion made several days ago by
President Roosevelt President Castro,
of Venezuela, was reported to have
agreed to submit the differences to the
arbitration of the tribunal at The
Hague.
Question of Conditions in Doubt.
The European powers not only con-
scented to submit the controversy to ar
bitration, but, while they had ex-
pressed a preference for an arbitra-
ton to be conducted by President
Roosevelt, they had assemble to his
suggestion that the matter be referred
to The Hague. No intimation is given

British Editors Fail To Be Satisfied Ex-
cept Those of the Liberal Sort.
London, Dec. 27.-Except by the op-
pOnents Of the government, who view
it as a virtual defeat and as discredit-
ing the ministry, the latest phase Of
the Venezuelan trouble has been well
coined very luke warmly. Arbitration
by President Roosevelt had been an
a difficult business that his refusal,
which is regarded as final, has caused
keen disappointment.
It is fOreseen that even if satisfac-
tory conditions to the submission of
the disputes to The Hague court can
be arranged this method will entail
endless and wearisome details, with
no assurance that at the end Presi-
dent Castro still will be in power or
Venezuela in the mood to abide by
the decision of The Hague In short
that element of guarantee which would
have accompanied President Roose-
yelt's acceptance of the Office of arbi-
traitor is now lacking.
At the same time it is readily ad-
mitted that from the United States
point of view President Roosevelt has
acted wisely in declining to act. The
foregoing represents the general drift
Of newspaper comment this morning.
The only paper which really welcomes
the decision to refer the Venezuelan
matter to The Hague is the radical
Daily News, which sees a chance Of
making arbitration once more reputa-
BILE theory.
Paying a tribute to the GOODNESS Of
President Roosevelt and the correct
attitude of the United States during
this ''sorry business" The Daily News
says: 1.-The Venezuelan crisis has done
much to enhance Mr.. RoOsevelt's repu-
tation and to bring home to English
men the essential friendliness of the
American people"
The Daily Mail in violent attack
upon the government says: THUS ends
perhaps the most inglorious episode in
which Great Britain has engaged in
recent years"

of the conditions which may have been
imposed by the European powers or
by President Castro precedent to the
arbitration Of President Roosevelt
practically without conditions, but the
suggestion is made that one and per-
haps two of tie other powers involved
proposed some conditions which might
have proved embarrassing to the presi-
dent had he undertaken the RESPONSE
bility of determining the question.
Some Money Must Be Paid.
1t is understood that some money
must pass, but it also is known that
the amount of cash to be required Of
Venezuela before arbitration is not
nearly so large as has been stated
1t is not possible to learn either wheth-
er the allies insist upon apologies from
Castro and, while it is assumed that
the blockade will be speedily raised,
no arrangement to that end has yet
been made. The energies of the nego-
tiators are now being devoted to the
framing of what will be known as a
condition protocol, and it is hoped that
while this class of document does not
undertake to closely define issues to be
presented it will still contain a pro-
vision for the removal of the black

THE HOG, THE FARMER's FRIEND.

Diversified farming is real farming,
and from experience is determined the
most profitable farming. A man can
engage in cattle raising on a ranch
and is thus only a rauchman, but it is
the general farmer, the diversified
farmer, that engages in hog raising
The hog is one of the most import
ant links or cogs in the wheel OF farm
oDeratfons. To a certain extent the
hog is an economical department. he
converts the bY-products that might
otherwise be wholly or partly lost into
ncrchantable pork. He CLEANS i'll the
grain field and is an important feature
TO the dairy. He is the farmers mon
ey maker and, in many cases, the farm
er's mortgage litter. No other animal
can turn out so many pounds of meat
from the quantity of grain fed as can
the hog.
The hog is an important factor on
every farm, yet as general thing he
gets less care than any other animal
on the farm. There is no other animal
in which care will pay so well as the
hog, and the farmers should give more
thought to his comfort, to his feeding
and to his treatment.

A d1sordered stomach NAV cause no

A dlsordered stomach may cause no
end of trouble. When the stomach
fails to perform its functions the
bowels become deranged, the liver and
kidneys congested, causing numerous
diseases, the most fatal of which are
painless and therefore the more to be
dreaded. The important thing is to
restore the stomach and liver to a
healthy condition, and for this purpose
no better preparation can be used than
