Principles OF DEMocRAcY

Before presenting TO the country the

those fundamental principles to he
observed in all governments i'm which
the will of the people is supreme.
In this day. when the present al
ministration has wandered so far
from those theories of government
which gave us our Declaration of In
dependence ami our Constitution. IL
Is well to pause and reflect upon the
doctrines which guided the wise and

There is one spot in Manchuria that
Is hardly likely TO. feel the effects OF
the Rusisan-Japanese war. This is
the mountain region about fifty miles
from the northeastern boundary line
of Korea. Here the Yalu, the Tumen
and the Sungari rivers rise, and be-
cause of this fact that Manchus have
attributed sacred qualities to this par
ticular spot.
The Ever White mountain. at the

DANGER sPoTs IN \ STORM.



Lightning Is Playing Franks.
Now that the season OF thunder
storms Is approaching people should
understand what spots to avoid In or

chances OF being struck by lightning.
Out OF doors trees should be avoided.

the explosion follows the fash 1t is
evident that electric clouds are near
at hand recumbent posture Is the
safest. 1t is seldom dangerous to
take shelter under sheds. carts or low
buildings or under the arch Of a
bridge, and n distance, of twenty or
thirty feet from tall trees or houses
is an eligible situation. for should a
discharge take place these elevated
bodies are most likely to receive it.
II is well also to avoid water, for
1t Is good conductor, and the height
of human being near the stream
may determine the direction Of dis.
charge. Within doors we are toler-
ably safe in the middle OF carpeted
room or when standing on a thick
hearth rug. The chimney should be
avoided on account Of the conducting
power of the carbon deposited In 1T
and gilt holdings or bell wires are
sources of risk. In bed We are toll
erably safe. since blankets and feath-
ers are bad conductors.
1t Is injudicious to take refuge In
a cellar, because the discharge is
often from the earth to cloud. and
frequently sustain the great.
