NATURES LAXATIVE THE

Many Are So-CaIIed Natural

There are many laxatives on the
market that are often styled "Natur-
al because of the well-knoWn fact
that the laxative which Nature gives
US is the best. Such ones are con-
stantly coming up, but soon disappear
because in reality they are manufac-
tured. and can never attain the in
imitable merits of the product of Ma

century as the ONLY Laxative whose

AT LAST

Yesterday, Friday. October 6-or the 10Th day
OF The month Shaaban, in the year 1924, ac-
cording TO the Mahometan calendar-must ever
remain a marked date in the annals Of the
reign of Abdul Hamid, If not of the Ottoman
Empire. For be It recorded that on that day.
at last, after the Prophet only knows how
many postponements, delays. procrastnations,
pretexts, excuses, and what not, the Com
mander OF the Faithful did deign, condescend
and vouchsafe to recognize as Ambassador and
TO receive IN imperial audience the Giaour &C
credited TO his court by the United States of
America. Truly, it is Kismet!
This ending of q situation which might have
been annoying If it had not been so provoca-
tive Of mirth is TO be regarded with no little
serious satisfaction. The difference between n
minister and an ambassador is much more
than one of name. The former must generally
be content TO deal with secretaries and other
| funcdCnarfes Of government while the latter
has access directly 10 the sovereign or other
chief Of state TO whose government he is
accredited At some capitals that difference
might not greatly matter At Constantinople
owing to the peculiar disposition Of the sover-
| eign and his unique attitude toward the rest
or the world. IL does greatly matter 1t is one
| hlng TO talk with some pacha dressed In q
/ little brief authority" whom the Sultan nuts
forward as convenient buffer between him
self and uncomfortably extgent diplomats 1t
Is quite another thing TO speak directly to the
Sultan himself. and thus TO put responsibility
where II ultimately belongs
There is considerable amount or sar,ous
business TO be transacted between TNIrkav and
the United States Some of It has been sccu-
mulattng for long time the DELAY being

end had made that fact evident to the world,
he was not prepared to consider the question
of intervention at all Again, on September IL,
the President regarded immediate Intervention
TO be out OF the question. and he urged Presl-
dent Palma TO use, in the most effective man
ner all the resources at his command to quell
the revolt and TO maintain the authority or
the Cuban government. This record should
confute completely and for all time those who
have been, on no better ground than their own
malevoent imaginations charging the Ameri-
can government with wantonly meddling in
Cuba, and with itself creating conditions there
which would afford it a pretext for interven-
ing. The indisputable official record in man
ner as clear as daylight completely Vindicates
the course of our government at every point
and in every detail.

TIE REAL STORY OF CUBA

The suspicion was expressed IN these col
uInns some time ago that affairs in Cuba had
long been IN q much worse condition than had
appeared on the surface. That suspicion is
fully Justified by the correspondence between
me American Consul General and the Acting
Secretary Of State which was printed In The
Tribune OF yesterday. 1t is revealed that as
early as Septsmber President Palma realized
Ids inability to deal with the Instruction or
10 protect LIE and property. and was urgently,
though secretly, begging our government to send
warships 70 his assistance, that on Septem-
Der u he tmplored the immediate dispatch Of
en- American army TO Havana TO prevent a
threatened massacre OF citizens and that on
September 13 he irrevocaby decided to resign
his Office and 70 throw upon the United States

whether be simply recognized and Welded TO
the inevitable or pusillanimously ran away from
a mess into which he had got himself and with
which be was too weak TO deal, are questions
which VIII be variously answered
The points Of chief interest concerning which
this correspondence leaves no room for ones
ron, are that President Palma took the mi
tiative IN bringing about American interven-
tion; that he sought, however, TO have inter
yentiOn effected in q way which would make
II appear as though the United States had taken
the initiative; and that our government from

toward them was unworthy We shall not now

felt that the game was beyond his playing. his

TIE Flag.

An entirely new school controversy has arisen
in Manitoba, which is it is true, so onesided
as perhaps scarcely to be regarded as q con-
| troversy, but which is commanding much at
tention, not only in that province and In the
Dominion, but also in the United Kingdom and
throughout the British Empire. 1t has arisen
from the order Of the Provincial Ministry that
hereafter the Union Jack must be flown during
school hours above every school which receives
funds from the public treasury. The govern
ment will provide the first flag for each school,
but the trustees will be required to replace 1t
when 1t is worn out, and every school which
fails thus to display the flag during school hours
will forfeit its right to public support.
We have become SO accustomed to such use
of the American flag schoOlhOuses in this
state. and it seems to us so emnently appro-
pirate, that surprise is caused by the news that
this order Of the AIanitoban government has met
with some opposition and with unfavorable crit
icism in that province, although the overwhelm-
Ing weight Of popular sentiment and Judgment
is on It's side. The Prime Minister, Mr. Robin
In explaining the order, makes its fitness clear
He says frankly that the order is intended chiefly
for effect upon immigrant children from non
British lands I'VE welcome the various peo-
piles that come to our province who are born
under foreign flags" he says, land we give them
immediately the benefit of our civil laws and
their children obtain free education in the
| public schools" But he adds: 1.-The man
who comes from foreign country In order to
better his circumstances and to make q home
for himself and his family, who objects to per
| 'petuating the glories of our flag who declines
Ito have his children infused with British
! patriotism, is a man that is undesirable"
That Is sound sense and sound civic policy
1t expresses sentiment which may well be
maintained in Manitoba, and which may well be
adopted in every province of the Dominion and
in every state OF the American Union. Nor will
1t be surprising If the colonial example is before
long followed in the United Kingdom itself 1t
has long been a matter of wOnderment TO MANY
that Englishmen are so reluctant TO make such
displays Of their historic flag. 1t will be re-
called that Mr.. Kipling, despite his authorship
of superb lyric on the flag OF England has
given, apparently, sympathetic expression to that
reluctance in one of his ''Stalky & Co" tales
OF course, it would be easy TO carry the thing
too far, to make a fetch OF the flag or TO in
dulge In mawkish sentiment over II. But there
would surely have been no such excess In adopt
ing years ago the practice. which is OF quite re-
