the Japanese, who are justly praised
for their marvellous strides in clVllza-
ton and industrial progress since their
pors were opened to commerce by the
guns of Commodore Perry fifty years
ago. However, the japanese still lack
something Of being perfect. The fol-
lowing comparison Of the warning ma
lions by a British missionary is worth
reading:
IN music and women alone, if in no
other respect, lies proof of Russian
greatness as a nation and of Japan's
inferiority. Japan mas no music or
musicians worthy of the name. While
Russia has produced a long list OF
great musicians and composers. Japan
treats it's women with contempt, and
no nation that so treats it's womankind
is worthy of our respect.
ION the other hand, Russia has not
only produced many women great In
various fields, but in all the common
affairs of life the Russian woman holds
first place. Turn to Japan and we find
that the Japanese wife, mother, sister.
is not permitted even to sit at table
in her own household when her husband
entertains his friends. The Japanese
man regards himself Inundated if he
is seen walking or standing beside
woman, and will commit hari-kiri rath-
sight of others"

NURSING MOTHERS

"A richer milk than milk
is good food for nursing
mothers. SCOTS Emulsion is
the rich cream of cod liver
oil, and contains ten times as
much cream as milk does.
The nursing mother must
eat with the purpose of pro-
ducing good, nourishing milk
for her baby. A little SCOTS
Emulsion is often a very wise
addition to her daily diet. If
through nervousness or weak
ness her milk is a failure,
SCOTS Emulsion will help
make it a success.
The baby gets the benefit,
too, when the mother takes
SCOTS Emulsion. The same
remedy brings new strength
and nourishment to both.

over 5000 inhabitants. In Texas there

Richmond is the only important Ii

So it seems likely that Prohibition is
more likely to hurt the Democratic

the Democratic party has been the rum
party there will be poetic justice in
whatever injury the Prohibition vote
may do it.

The importance Of having expert
''barkers" in front Of the democratic
side-show seems to grow on those who
are managing the show. So yesterday
two Of New Ravens prominent and in
fuential democrats went to New York
to see il they couldn't prevail on ''the
campaign lecture bureau there to send
folks here who can really talk.
We hope such will be sent. They will
add to the fun. Those who do not want
to go into the show will enjoy the
'patter,'' and possibly a few will be
induced by it to go in. The ''barkers'
will need to be experts if they are
going to fill the bill. AS expert as that
one was who stood in front of a show
bowling with might and main to get
the ten-cent pieces headed toward the
ticket seller. Thinking to make an i'm
preston he tackled man who was
coming out of the tent and asked him
in loud voice how he liked the show,
"Rotten!" was the brief but compre-
hensive answer. That's what they ali
say" gaily responded the barker" and
went on with undininished and undis-
mayed righteousness. ,..-
We fear the democratic show this
year isn't very good, but the barking
ought to be. It must be If the show is
going to go at all.

There is a shortage abroad, as well as

THE PROHIBITION VoTE.

An interesting feature of the political
situation this year will be the Prohi-
bition vote. The Prohibition Inanag-
ers are talking about getting 100000
votes. In 1900 they got 20s,914. Since
then the Prohibition movement has
been making Roadway,
and though 100000 voters may not
vote for Prohibition this year it is
fair to expect that the vote will be
considerably larger than it was four
years ago. And it is interesting to no.

SILL - COOP COUNTRY.

That this country, in spite of some
dulIness and depression, is still quite as
well off as other countries is shown by
some facts gathered by the Massachu-
sets Bureau of Statistics and Labor,
which has just issued a statement re-
garding the condition Of employment in
foreign countries. OF Canada it speaks
rather favorably but says that there is
very little demand for labor in Aus
tralia, and warns emigrants to keep
away from South Africa, where large
numbers of skilled workmen are look
ing for jobs. In France 10 per cent. Of
the members Of the trade unions were
