The Nation continues to enjoy

JAPS ORDERLY DURING WAR
Mayors of Principal Cities in Island
Declare Normal Conditions Are
Prevailing There.

A cablegram has been received by the
japanese minister from Toxic to the eff
feet hat the mayors of the principal cit
les of Japan have been receiving for
some time past letters from all parts
of the world inquiring as to the condi-
ton of affairs in Japan. These letters
usually come from prospective travellers
who desire to know whether or not it is
safe to visit the country. In response
the mayors have issued the following
statement:
In answer to inquiries too numerous
% be individually responded to, and in the
hope Of correcting erroneous impress
sions that may possibly exist abroad,
we, the mayors Of the principal cities
of Japan, beg to give assurance that
normal conditions prevail throughout
the empire. japan in war is as orderly
as Japan in peace. Business men and
travellers who contemplate %journeying
to Japan will encounter no inconveni-
ence and will be exposed to no danger.
The ordinary means of communication
by land and sea are not and will not be
interrupted. Japan and its territorial
waters are not within the zone of hostil-
tiles, and the position and the advantages
of our fleets and armies insure the empire
against INVASION"

SUICIDES CLOTHES GOOD
Women Who Seek elf-Destruction
Always Array Themselves
in Their Best.

Women who are driven to suicide
presumably lose most of their ambi-
ton before taking the fatal plunge,
but there is n feminine trait that
they retain to the ~end-namely: pride
In clothes, says the Chicago Tribune.
Seldom" says a doctor whose posi-
ton has required him to perform POST
mortem services for many of these I'M
fortunates, have | seen a woman who
did not go to her death as well dressed
as her circumstances would allow. The
published reports of these tragedies
confirm my observation. Read in the
papers the account of a suicide, and
nine times out of ten 1t will wind up
by saying the woman was well
dressed or at the least, her clothing
was neat and clean
UNLESS these women belong to the
dregs they are found dressed in the
silk skirt and silk waist, which have
become the inevitable garb of the sui
eide of moderate means. AT the last
the true feminine instinct seems 10
assert itself, and, although the woman
will not b. here to read the aecount of
the tragedy. she wants to die in the
blessed satisfaction that she will be
written up as a well-dressed member
of society,""
