| What difference what we eat? AT
an early date In New England, soldiers
and Indians esteemed rattlesnakes a
great luxury, and they ate other brands
of snakes too, especially In soups. and

OUTSIDE POINT OF VIEW

Devout students of history much en-
JOY In pointing out the hand of Provl-
dence, as shown by the successive
steps of nations, towards goal, un-
known and even unsought by the
actors of the age preceding. The
destiny that shapes our ends" comes
under the head of blind fate, in SO
far as the acts of human beings go
to make up the grand climax. All
these things are easily traced in look
ing back a thousand or more years.
The finger of God was pointing the
way, but the toilers of earth saw IT
not, in fact many poor short-siShted
mortals, if they had known the direc-
ton they were headed, would have
gone in an opposite direction. His
tory is full of these things.
But why go back thousand years
to trace His handiwork? Why go
back a hundred years for the object
lesson? Why go back twenty years
to find several striking Illustrations?
For instance, can one conceive of
more wonderful thing than the result
of some miserable being blowing up
the Maine in the harbor of Havana :?
or admit that it was an accident: still,
great results to humanity can be cred
tied to that event. If the reader OBJ
jects to acknowledging that Provi-
dence was responsible for this terri

we can fall back on Fate, Destiny and
free ordination. AT all events the
blowing up of the Maine instantly set
in effect processes of incalculable value
to the whole world. 1t gave indepen-
dence to Cuba. 1t sent Dewey to the
Philippines. 1t gave to those
islands new national govern
ment. Thousands of children in these
islands had their whole future changd
the instant that battleShip went to the
bottom. To the present and coming
generations of Filipinos the report of
this explosion was the signal for an
army of teachers to sail for the Phil

Maine, but their downfall and expul-

years. dates from the terrible event in
Havana harbor. lis this reasoning eX-
nggeration? Hardly. The vericst
school boy OF today can trace the hand
of God in these events. 1t Is not

Senator Platt of New York probably
lays no claim to being on instrument

affected most seriously many stupen-
tlous affairs of nations. To get him
out OF politics he forced the
unwilling Theodore Roosevelt
into the vice presidential
chair. His motives we're known and
explained then, they are the history of
the world today. Senator Platt, nor
any one living at the time of that re-
publican convention, ever dreamed that
they were placing Il man on the road
to effect peace between Japan and
Russia. Senator Plat of New York,
the man pre- eminently looking out for
the interest Of the monied power OF
this country In the United States SEN

Plat. working with his Creator blind

mighty (?) 1t does seem impossible
that he would select such an instru-
ment. 1t Is as homogeneous to the ordi-
nary thinking mind as to know and
realize that the Almighty selected the
man Lawson, as the chief actor, to UNI
consciously start the crusade against
the big corrupt insurance companies.
Plat and Lawson were impelled to
act from none of the best of motives.
The result we now see. See? Only
the beginning Of the end. We see the
final results no more plainly than did
the autocracy see the present condi-
ton of affairs In Russia, when they
commenced the war with Japan. In
view OF only these few suggestive IL
