THE THIN SKINNED RUSSIANS

The Russian has always been pie tured, in the popular imagination in this country. as equally big, coarse and phlegmatic. It has never been suspected that he was actually sensi- tive. On the contrary. it has always teen assumed that the barbs of criti- cism and the silence of contempt would produce equally little effect on his sensibilities.
 The news that comes from St. Petersburg regarding the way the cars subjects are affected by the 1 American nations somewhat friendly attitude toward Japan indicates that, ] the Russians are quite a different sort of people from what we had supposed them. They appear to be as much ag:- tated as even the mercurial French would be expected to be under like cir cumstances. The Russian government IS so nettled that it semi-ofiicially threatens to refuse to let Secretary Hay send consuls to two ports in China although it was agreed before hostili- ties commenced that they should at once be located there. At the same time, Russian importers are rapidly cancelIng orders for American com modities They don't intend to play in our yard any more, because we won't be good.
 What the Russians chiefly blame us for is our alleged ingratitude to them. They complaininGly recall that they were good enoU.;h to sell us Alaska. They seem to forget that we. on our ] oart, were good enough to pay them Tor it. They recall that they were friendly 10 the north during the civil | Ou- raopla that ObIi gation several years. ago by present. ting the suffering Russian peasantry millions of bushels of wheat to save ! rhem from starvation. The cold fact If the business is that the United l States has done Russia as many friendly turns as Russia has done us. md we are not morally bound to do anything for hi' in the present war except to maintain neutrality. Russia. | in the opinion of a vast majority of l Americans is in the wrong. Japan, in the opinion of many of our population. is fighting Americas battles as well as her own. Under the circumstances as long as we keep our hands off, Rus sia has no good ground for complain 'ng if our sympathies incline toward | Japan.
 As for the injury Russia's indigna = ton may cause us 1t probably will
 not be large. She will hardly quit buying goods from us to become a pa
 tron of Great Britain, her dearest foe. Germany. the third commercial nation
 of the world, feels as unfriendly to-
 ward her as we do. If she gives
 France the benefit of the business she is taking from us it will be a good
 thing for France, but a bad thing for
 Russia, for France is not in the same
 class as the United States as a manu-
 featuring and exporting nation and
 she will have to pay a good deal more
 for what she may get from France
 than she would if she got it from this
 country. For Russia to withdraw her
 trade from the United States is for her
 to cut off her nose to spite her face:
 and if she choose to divert herself ir
 that way we should be able to stand

FIG POLKA DOTS WILL RAGE

Fashion always goes to extreme, so Of course the new polka dots are as large as "a quarter" and some of them are the size of a half dollar They are not so ugly as one would imagine vixen made up.
 A boudoir jacket was made of a cream satin, which had red panne satin pol ka dots about the size of a twenty-five cent piece. It was made kimOna style in andkerchief effect and was striking with its red panne satin bands which matched the polka dots perfectly.
 The shop windows already show gray satin materials with black polka dots and gray with navy blue and red IOlNd dots-

RHEUMATISM IN ELBOWS, WRISTS
 AND KNEES.

Urbana, Ohio, Aug. 25, 1903. Last winter had a severe attack of Rheumatism. It started in the right elbow, and from there to my wrists; the right wrist was the worse. It became swollen and extremely painful. My left knee joint was the next place to be at- tackled. It became swollen and of course painful. The next point to be affected w2s the hip and ankle, which gave mo much trouble. I was barely able to get ut for some time. I was under treat ment of 0 physician for awhile, but get taxing it for some time I was entirely relieved of the Rhe eun' 7tisu1. All swelling and soreness disappeared. I consider s. 8. s. an excellent remedy for Rheuma- tism and all troubles having their origin in the blood.

Distinction Made Between Lives Of
Millionaire and laborer.

"The life of rich man is worth
more than the life of poor man,
and the physician has a right to charge
the millionaire more for his services
than he does the laborer." Is the opin.
ion recently handed down by phila.
delphia Judge, who went on to say:
The physician is unlike the mer.
chant who has goods of different quail.
ity to sell at various prices. He
must give his best service in every
case. But 1t does not follow that the
service is worth the same in every
case.
Human life has a pecuniary value
of variable quantity, greater in the
millionaire than in the laborer. Thus
the practitioner of common sense
makes out his bills to suit the pecuni-
airy circumstances Of his patients"

The Strongest Soldiers.

'UO otEoV8OeN SOtoteVb'
From a recent English medical in.
quiry into the physical status of the
various classes of military 1t was
found that the low-sized, broad chest.
ed artillery men were the strongest
and healthiest In the service. On the
other hand the tall men Of the Guards
had the disease tendencies of the
overgrown and consumption and other
pulmonary troubles were noticeably
common. When narrow chested, the
men OF the Guards and heavy cavalry
very soon broke down. Indeed, the
bulk of the medical evidence seemed
to show that the small, well-set men
the typical Atkinses-were the ideal
soldiers, though not so imposing or
martial-looking as the gigantic Guards.
This Inaccurate World.
For the purpose of illustrating the
difficulties of evidence, Prof. Won List
of Berlin arranged with two OF his
pupils to pretend a quarrel, consisting
of hot words, walking stick, and a
pistol loaded with blank cartridges.
The quarrel came off in the presence
of twenty other young men, all highly
educated" who were not In the secret.
No two of the twenty agreed exactly
as TO the cause Oh the quarrel Eight
different answers were given to the
question: Who began the quarrel?

The use of perfume as disinfectant
is well known, and the scented
dandy" has perhaps more hygienic
wisdom than his detractors give him
credit for. 1t is he who is trying to
revive the use of the perfumed foun.
tain ring. an article de luxe which
may either be used as an ornament
or as a means of pleasant disinfect'
ant in stuffy underground trains or in
insalubrious districts.
The ring is an ordinary gold one
fitted with a ball at the back. 1t Is
filed by pressing the ball nearly fiat.
and dipping the ring into cup OF
scent. when the elasticity Of the ball
draws the perfume into the interior
till quite full BY the least pressure
the wearer of the ring can cause a
jet OF scent to shed It's refreshing
aroma any moment he pleases, and he
may thus act as a benefactor or a
nuisance to those in his vicinity.
The perfume lamp may also be
used as another pleasant method OF
disinfecting room. A ball of spongy
platinum is placed over the center OF
the wick, and is fixed in its position
by a thin glass rod, which is inserted
into the wick The lamp is then filled
with any scerted spirit, and when
lighted is allowed to burn until the
platinum gets req hot. The flame is
then blown out, and a pleasant odor
fills the atmosphere.

fisherman of Odessa. has just accom-.
plished the feat of navigating alone
small sailing boat from that port
across the Black sea to Constantine
pie and back, putting in at Constanza

popularity of the adventure Is that
Strabrovsky navigated without COM

There is well-known divine up in

so as to work up interest. He is a
Baptist, and on one occasion gave II
out that the subject for the following
Sunday would be sitting Mary" This
rather aroused curiosity, and so a
newspaper man who had to get up
the sermons went to noted Presby-
terrain divine, who is also something
of wag. The reporter told him the
subject the Baptist was to hold forth
on and then asked what his title
would be. Quick as flash the minis
