The Abuse Of salt.

How easy it Is 70 get too much of Il
good thing! Salt, one of the most alb
solute necessities Of life when taken in
small quantities, mnY BY incessant in
Iudicious use become violent poison.
Before the German sailors were en-
forced by law to eat sauerkraut once 4

foods the death rate among them was
enormous.
An anecdote is told of an Indian
medicine man who experimental with
salt upon his wife From the day Of
their wedding be allowed her to eat
nothing but salt meat and highly sailed
vegetables, while he ate ii great deal
Of pepper l}efore the year was out his

Japanes Sc Love Of cnnntru.

There are many instances in Japan
Of soldiers who have loved their coun.
try more passionately even than their
families. Americans may think it hor-
rible and Incredible, but Japanese
women understand the intense feeling
OF loyalty which predominates above
everything in soldiers hearts. In the
interior of Japan a young farmer on
the outbreak of war was suddenly
called TO the colors. Two days prep.
aration was given him to settle his az.
fairs and to start for Tokyo. His wife
had very young infant The young
mother was SO overcome with grief
at this unexpected news that she faint
ed away and within an hour died, leav-
ing her husband alone with the new.
born babe. What could he do with It.?
Who could care for such a mite?
Feeling that his own life was forfeited
to his country the poor man in a
frenzy OF passionate grief killed his
own child OF course the law had to
step in and he had to be tried for muir
der. A merciful jury acquitted him
on the ground of emotional insanity.

Measures of legal reform have not
been confined, though, to the humans

points prominently contested in the
late Crimmitschau textile-workers'
strike was the demand of operatives
to limit the working time of female
operatives to ten hours per day. The
failure Of that strike has not served to
silence the propaganda for such re-
form. So strong has the movement

bread while breaking gubernatorlal

resign. This is. no tine for you to
resign"
Secretary Taft later. after a private
talk with Governor Carter, in which
ne told him that he had a message
Tor him from the President to the eff
feet that he should reconsider his resig-
nation, changed his views about Car
ter going to see the President, saying
that, after all It might be well to talk
over matters and come to a complete
understanding. This was after Taft
learned of Carters differences with the
President in regard to Hawaiian land
matters.
From conversations with Secretary
Taft and other members of the party,
and from private letters received from
Governor Carter, written at San Fran
cisco. 1t is the firm conviction Of
some people here that Carter had re-
considered his determination to resign
before he left San Francisco and It is
said that soon after seeing Taft he
telegraphed the President that he had
reconsidered, but would go on to talk
over the matter with him.
Said one man. this morning: 81 have
known the Governor very Intimately
for the last few years. have be-
come particularly well acquainted with
him during the time Of his being Sec
rotary Of the Territory and Governor
and 1t is my firm conviction that he
has been worrying much of late. He
needs a vacation and l would not be
at all surprised to see him take trip
around the world before returning to
Honolulu to resume his gubernatorial
duties. l expect to hear, next week,
definitely, that the Governor has been
advised by the President to reconsider
his resignation and that he has recon-
| sidered.
There may be something In this talk
that Carter wants to see Jack succeed
him, when he is old enough. which is
only matter of a year"
