Paris, March 2~5.--Prospects of
peace between Russia and Japan have
assumed a more definite and almost a
tangible aspect as the result of the
announcement of the resumption of ne
EQUATIONS for a Russian loan.
Postponement of the loan occurred
through the stand taken by the finan-
cial element against proceeding while
the uncertainties of war continued,
while a willingness to SUI negotia-
their strong influence for peace finally
had prevailed with the authorities at
St. Petersburg. The announcement of
the resumption Of negotiations took
definite form in a communication to
the syndicate OF agents de change.
who form an influential element on
the bourse, holding government Gre
dentials.
1t was intimated that Russia would
deal directly with Toxic through the
French minister, who has charge Of
Russia's interests in Japan. However,
the report of Frances active part in
the negotiations were said to be not
entirely correct, as other powers have
contributed towards a pacific solution,
and it is expected they will take part
in it's realization. 1t appears that
some of the lesser powers, including
Sweden, are assisting to that end.
Russia's chief preoccupation is said
to be avoidance of having peace plans
arouse the animosity Of the powerful
wal element at home.
The receipt of an official dispatch at
st. Petersburg on March 20, saying
that the Japanese were approaching
Vladivostok, is said to have induced
the determination to seek a pacific So
luton. On the other hand, it is in
sisted that Japanese proximity to
Vladivostok promises to be a chief OBJ
stacle in the way of peace, as diplo-
mats conversant with the situation say
that Japan will seek to aver peace I'M
til she possesses Russia's only outlet
to the Pacific ocean,.

Ascertaining losses by war opera
tons is a very difficult task, and yet
approximate results have been Sc
cured. It is noteworthy, but no occa-
sion for surprise, that the number
killed and wounded in war during 1904
greatly exceeds that of 1908 by reason
of the sanguinary contest between
Japan and Russia, in which lives have
been r~ecklessly sacrificed. The total
loss for the year is about 100000, IS

II Worked For Him.

It takes a man to make original dis
coveries about kitchen. Not long
since a good housewife of one Of our
prominent farmers complained that her
milk strainer was nuisance, as the
sieve was too fine and that it took her
forever to strain the milk. Now
John" said she, when you go to Troy
get me a new one" The next day
Mrs. - chanced to be called away
to see a sick neighbor and John found
himself with the nights milking to put
away. Going into the kitchen he took
tin article resembling a strainer and
was surprized to see the milk run
through it with surprising rapidity, and
he lost no time in telling his wife that
he could see nothing slow about the
old strainer. Upon investigation it
was discovered that John had, instead
of strainer, run the milk through a
collander, the holes of which were
about the size Of peas. Mrs. - now
has only to mention milk strainers tc
John to convince him that women
sometimes know what they are talking
about.
