both Americans and Japanese, some Of
the later being ships officers and some
of them local Japanese, were having re-
freshments i'm the wardroom. Several
toasts had been proposed including
the Emperor, when one of the local
Japanese proposed a toast to the Ane-

so highly developed Immediately under
took to correct the Japanese's pronun-
citation Of the name of the training
ship Her idea of the pronunciation,
as compared with that of the Japanese
was something weird, so weird in fact
that the Americans in the party could
recognize its weirdness, and they join
ed in the hearty and undisguised laugh
ter with which all the Japanese Of the
party greeted it.
The woman with the instructing in
stinst who had undertaken to correct
the pronunciation of a Japanese word
by an educated Japanese, felt quite
hurt at the laughter and exclaimed
tride petulently "Well, that isn't the
way the papers print it."

CHILD LABOR THAT THE
 LAW CAN NOT REACH

Not long ago child Of six walked dcwn Avenue D, in New York City, Carrying on her head load of s,weatshop 'pants''-they are not trousers, at that price-weiehing not less than twenty-five pounds. She had to walk several blocks with it and climbed four flights of stairs: and when 1t was removed her work was just beginning, for the endless but tons-tWelve to a pair-were to be sewed on by the brown claws that eripped the bundle. The child's hands are small. and the cloth is stiff, but she tugs at her needle with a pa tience far more touching than rebel lion. She sits as close as possible to the meaera wndow but already her eyes show strain. They are dull eyes, except for momentary sweetness when she smiles All the frail new growth of her age is being relentless ly pounded down, leaving arid va

Tell about the size of the audiences, the service, the number added to the ne bership, and all other informa- ton which could be of the slightest interest to any reader of the Graphic.

COMMERCIAL CONVENTION

The Business Mems league of St. Louis has called convention of all the commercial clubs of the south west which is to be held in St. Louis on Monday and Tuesday, April 16 and 17, for the purpose of discussing plans for the development of this section of the country and for the effective exploitation of it's resources.
 Every commercial organization in Missouri, Kansas, Texas, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Indian Territory, New Mexico, and Arizona has been invit. ec to send two delegates to the con- vention. Special rates have been ar ranged with the railways and with the hotels of St. Louis, and the Busi- hess Mems league will entertain the delegates at the close of the conven- tion with a banquet.
 A convention of this kind has never been held, but great benefit that will come out of a meeting of these repre- sentative men from the southwest and from their united plan for the advancement of the commercial inter- ests of the southwest territory

 "Just for fun" two freight trains were wrecked by the tower man al McCocl, Ind, near HammCnd. Pass enger trains escaped, as the en- ploye's des re fer fun happened to be dormant, except when ffeights passed. The tower is at the crossing of the Ealtimcre and Ohio and the Elgin, Joliet and Eastern railroads. The tower man, Thomas Best. threw the wrong levers for a freight train on each of the lines, having become reck- less through the alleged inbibing of liquor, aud the trains were ditched. When he was arrese ed he said it was only a joke He was taken to Val pariaso and locked up.

INSPIRED DISPATCHES.

This is a sample of the dispatches that may be looked for, judiciously distributed through the press of the country, under the headlines of Bumper Crop," Agricultural Pros perity," etc., from now on until the acreage is counted, and the govern ment's first report of conditions is issued. The thing is cleverly framed to forbid any supicion of inspiration, but where repeated often enough, in q fferent guise, has the effect upon the market that is intended:
 Augusta, Ga, Feb. 14.-An
 agent for one of the most reliable
 mercantile concerns in the coun
 try-one which covers every sec
 ton of the United States thor
 oughly, and in a most minute
 manner-is authority for the
 statement that there S reason to
 believe that the 1906-1o07 cotton
 crop will be bumper. He says
 he has been Investigating the fer
 tilizer outlook. and there is ev-
 cry indication now that the fer
 tilizer business th;s season will
 be heavier than it has been in ten
 years. He says the farmers are
 more than doubling their former
 orders. In addition he says he
 finds that the sale of mules dur
 ing the past four months has ex-
 ceeded the sale of that animal for
 the same period of the year for
 the past 20 years or longer.
 Whether or not the acreage is
 going to be increased he would
 not venture, but is inclined to be-
 lieve an effort will be made to
 raise more to the acre.
 There is no way to prevent these publications, nor of proving their source, but their recurrence every year at this season leaves little doubt as to their origin or purpose, and they are noted merely as sam. pie of the methods employed by the bear clique in speculative manipula- tion
 The Graphic believes that with the coming of the means to farm intelli- gently that the cotton grower will be less disposed than ever to risk his all upon cotton, and will use increas- ed supplies of fertilizer upon truck and food crops, which those new mules will be used to cultivate. An other meaning, therefore, is to be giv. en to farmers purchases than the tra ditional one. with the advent of agri cultural independence.

At the New York State Assembly of Mothers, a prominent New York doctor told the 500 women present that healthy American women were so rare as to be almost extinct.
 This seems to be . sweeping state ment of the condition of American women. Yet how many do you know who are perfectly we'll and do not have some trouble arising from derange- ment of the female organism which manifests itself in headaches, back aches, nervousness, that bearing-down feeling, painful or irregular periods, pelvic catarrh, displacement of the female organs. indigestion or sleepless- ness? There is tried and true pemedy for all these ailments. Lydia E. Pink hams Vegetable Compound has re- stored more American women to health than all other remedies in the world. It regulates, strengthens and cures diseases of the female organism as nothing else can For thirty years it has been curing the worst forms of female complaints.
 Such testimony as the following should be convincing.
 Mrs. T. C. Willadsen, of Manning. Ia. writes:
 Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-
 II can truly say that you have saved my life and I cannot express my gratitude to you in words For two years spent lots of money in doctoring without any benefit for female irregularities and had given up all hopes of ever being we'll again, but was persuaded to try Lydia E. Pinkhams Vegetable Compound and three bottles have restored me to perfect health, Had it not been for you would have been in my grave to-day"

THE NORTHERN VIEW OF TT.

The labor and immigration prob lems of the south are receiving quite as much attent on at the north as at Fame and there is an interesting va ylety of treatment of the question, ln- Intelligent and unintelligent, disinter- esting or selfish, encouraging and discouraging, as formation or lgno- gance. pen-mindedeness or prejudice lie back of the writing. It is gratlfy- Ing to note. however, that even where Ignorance dominates, the element of sympathy is not wanting in most of the newspaper art cles on the subject, and only here and there is found any sign of the pharisaical featuring Of ether days.
 It is observed. however that the New York Journal of Commerce, that is usually fair in it's attitude toward the south, hints that social and polit- ical conditions prevailing here mili- tate against immigrants seeking homes in this section, saying:
 The opportunities of the south
 appear to be greater and more at
 tractive than those of any other
 part of the country, because its
 resources and capacity for pro-
 duction are less developed and
 it's population less dense in pro.
 portion to the number it is cap
 able of sustaining: and one would
 suppose that it's milder climate
 would be attractive to a large
 class of immigrants from the
 southern part of Europe. Why
 is it that immigrants to the south
 Ire apparently so much desired
 and are so d d,sinclined to turn
 that wayo We supect that right
 ly or wrongly, the cause is main
 " political and social. There is
 an impression, hard to eradicate,
 that the humber class of society,
 those who work with their hands,
 are not so we'll treated there,
 have not the same freedom and
 consideration, are not so well
 provided with the means of edu-
 cation, and have not the same
 privileges and immunities as citi-
 zens as those who live in other
 parts of the country. This inn
 oression is derived from condi-
 lions Of the past which have not
 wholly disappeared, and is kept
 up perhaps by prejudice; but
 there Is little doubt that it exists.
 It is an aspect of the matter
 which southern people will do
 well to consider seriously, and in
 seeking remedy for the labor sit
 ~rat'on to take into account as
 among the causes to be removed.
 Tnat is said in well-bred way. seeking to exempt the children of this generation from responsibility for the sins of their fathers, but the Journal of Commerce ought to know better. The real objection that foreigners nave to locating in the south lies in the presence of negroes In large numbers in this section; race that they do not understand and are reluc- tant 10 come in contact or competi- ton with White men prefer a white mans country.
