on the whole think 1t Is worth the
risk, and personally would just as
soon be deae as live on diet OF nut
outlets, almond shape, bran tea and
Plasmon, which according to these
latter-day faddists, Is the panacea for
all the digestic troubles OF life. 1t
certainly Is fact that anyone who
could digest and enjoy such a menu
must be most healthy and happy
person. But then, on the other hand =,
there are quite number of people In
existence who possess both these
qualities without adhering to diet
the chief components of which form
the staple food OF the inhabitants OF
the farm-yard.
While 1t certainly Is a fact that
most OF us eat great deal more than
we need, I doubt If there is as much
digestive trouble" In the world as
these modern cranks would have us
believe. If, however, there Is, surely
the cure Is more likely to be found In
moderation than In ridiculous fads.
"If there were no eating without
hunger and no drinking without
thirst" said the late Mr.. Herbert
Spencer, "then would the system be
but seldom out of order" 1t Is the
people who realize this who are the
despair OF the doctors. Moderation
and regularity of food and life alone
keep that region in order In which
the Chinese believe the soul resides.

NEGROES AFTER WAR.
Peculiar Conduct of Freed Fol-
lowing Emancipation.

In one respect-the behavior of the
negroes Immediately after their emau-
cipation was remarkable. 1t Is pro-
bable that some OF them had suffered
cruel punishment or other hash treat
ment while In the condition of slave
ry; but not one act of vengeance on
the part of a negro after emancipation
In one record.
On the contrary, there were many
instances OF singularly faithful and
self-sacrifcing attachment of negroes
to their former masters and their fam
lilies.
Neither could they, at that period
be charged with many criminal ex-
cesses beyond pig and chicken steal
ing But their ideas as to what use
they might or should make Of their
newly Won freedom were rather dim
and confused.
A good many of them, probably,
indeed, very large majority, remain
ed on the plantations and continued
their work under some sort of contract
arrangements with their former mas.
tiers.
But other colored people, not in
considerable: number, followed the
natural impulse OF testing the quality
OF their freedom by Walking away
from the places on which they had
been held to labor, and by wandering
to the nearest town or military post
"to have good time" for awhile.
Still others made contracts with the
planters and then broke them with or
without cause. These were compare
lively slight disorders which, If kind
ly and prudently met, would, in
great measure, soon have been right
ed. But against these irregular
movements. physical compulsion,
without which, in the Southeror'
opinion, the negroes would not work
at all, was fiercely put In action.
Some planters held back their form
er slaves on their plantations by brute
force. Armed bands OF white men
patrolled the country roads to drive
back the negroes wandering about
Dead bodies OF murdered negroes were
found on and near the highways and
bypaths.
Gruescme reports came from the
hospii als-repcris OF colored men and
women whose ears had been cut of,
whose skulls had been broken by
blows, whose bodies had been slashed
with knives or lace rated with
scourges.
A number of such cases | had occa-
sion to examine myself. A veritable
reign OF terror prevailed in many
parts of the South. The negro found
scant justice in the local courts
against the white man.-January Nc

JAPAN'S CHIEF AIM
Willing to Give 10000 Lives
to Possess Port
Arthur.
Russian Army in Decidedly Diff
cult Position.

The supreme wish OF the Japanese
now Is the capture OF the stronghold
at Port Arthur and the destruction OF
the Manchurian railroad, In as many
places as possible. These two things
accomplished, Japan believes the war
would practically be over. But be-
tween now and that accomplishment
there Is much hard fighting and a
possibility of defeat for both sides.
War strategists OF all nationalities,
many of whom are now In London,
believe no sacrifice Of men Is too great
for Japan to make II she has even a
chance to gain Port Arthur. A loss
of 30, 600 soldiers, more or less, would
amount to nothing In view of the
great advantage which would accrue
from the occupation OF that fortress.
Already Japan has made strenuous
efforts to throw thousands of men
into Southern Manchuria. within less
than one hundred miles of Port Ar
thur.
The Russians are In a hard posi-
ton. With hundreds of miles of
coast to guard to prevent the landing
of troops, with an attack on Port Ar
thur expected, and the Manchnriau
border along the Yalu to protect, 1t is
necessary to spread their forces over
wide territory. This makes 1t all the
easier for a Japanese force to be land
ed, say the war experts, and they
consider 1t wonderful that such stub
born resistance has already been met.
The reports that the Japanese have
concentrated about 600 troops at
Wonson, on the east coast of Korea,
with the object OF entering Manchu.
ria, are confirmed. The column will
cross the Yalu north of Ping Yang,
and create diversion In the region OF
Hardin, on the Manchurian railway,
where Viceroy Alexieff has establish
ed his headquarters.
Hardin Is on the Sungari river at
the junction of the Manchurian
branch of the Siberian railway and
the Chinese eastern branch, where 1t
starts south to Dalny, Port Arthur
being distant from the last point 600
miles.
1t Is distinctly Russian city, as
though it were located In the heart of
Russia, and none but Russians and
Chinese are permitted to own land,
construct buildings, or engage in any
permanent enterprise.
On the Yalu river the Russian
army has In it's rear line of noun.
tains, and the Yalu In It's front. This
army must be supplied by water from
Port Arthur. The march of Japa.
nese army on Hardin would break
the supply line of this army, as we'll
as cut Port Arthur of from the north.
Therefore military and naval men are
looking for developments between
Win, at the mouth of the Yalu, and
Kin Chow, fifty or more miles north
of Port Arthur.

Great and Good Men Have Sworn

According to the Anti Profanity
League, the swearing habit is 1.-The
national habit" Undoubtedly the
use of profanity is extremely preva-
lent; a person needs merely to keep
his ears open on the street to learn
this. But whether 1t Is so general as
to Justify one In terming 1t the ma
tional evil Is a matter of opinion.
Not all swearing, moreover, is wholly
indefensible. There are various
kinds of swearing, and 1t will not do
to lump them In one class with a sim
gle label. Besides the habitual and
commonplace swearers, whose pro-
family Is mere redundant and color
less verbiage, and the vulgar and diff
fuse sweaters, whose oaths are rank
and noisome, one must recognize also
as distinct category the discreet and
moderate swearers who employ and
occasional oath with fine emphasis
and artistic effect. Many great and
good men belong to the last class
Even the father of his county Is said
to have sworn vigorously when the
emergency seemed to require depart.
ure from his customary rule OF un-
vanished speech. This sort of dis
eliminating profanity Is vastly differ
emit from the causeless and gratuitous
swearing of habitual and vulgar
oathmongers. Indeed, the man who
now and then vents his emotions In
an oath Is rather precautions 20 break
forth. A robust ebulition Is better
than ingrowing profanity. Silence
may be as profane as words under
certain circumstances. A saying OF
Joseph Choate occurs to the Settler In
this connection. A noted preiate was
once playing golf with Mr.. Choate,
and after foozling tea shot egreg.
iously, stood looking at the ball for
several moments. After waiting for
the bishop to say something Mr..
Choate remarked: "Bishop, that
was the profanest silence l ever
heard"
AS for the Anti. Profanity League,
the purpose of the organization Is
certainly worthy, but somehow the
Settler cannot develop high degree
of enthusiasm In such cause. He
Is bit weary OF anti-crusades of all
sorts. Movements for the suppress
sion OF this and that and what not fail
to interest him profoundly. 1t seems
to him that what Is needed In the
field of social reform is not so much
the suppression of bad things as the
promotion of good things. Reform
ers should concentrate their energies
on positive and constructive work,
rather than purely negative and re-
strictive undertakings, The Boston
