NEW YEARS CALLS.
A New Drink to Replace the Old
Time "Apple-Jack."

a New Drink to Replace the Old
Time "App1e-JncI<."
twenty-five years ago the custom OF
making New Years calls was delight
full one for all concerned, until some
of the boys got more 'egg-nog' or apple
Jack than they could successfully
carry.
Then the ladies tried to be charita-
ole and the gentlemen tried to be as
,chivalrous as ever and stand up at the
same time.
If anyone thinks there has not been
considerable improvement made in the
last quarter of a century in the use OF
alcoholic beverages, let him stop to con-
slider, among other things, the fact that
the old custom of New Years calls and
the genteeI tipping is nearly obso-
tete
The custom of calling on ones
friends, however, at the beginning of
the new year, is a good habit, and an
other good habit to start at that time
is the use of well-made Postum instead
OF coffee or spirits.
A Staten Island doctor has sensi-
BILE daughter who has set Postum be-
fore her guests as a good thing to drink
at Yule Tide, and good way to begin
the New Year. Her father writes:
My daughter and have used Pos
;tum for some time past and we feel
sure it contains wholesome food mate
rial.
Il shall not only recommend it to my
patients but my daughter will be most
pleased to give a demonstration of Pos
tum to our Christmas and New Year;

PICTURESQUE India.

But perhaps the most picturesque thing
which / have ever seen in India, using
the word in the sense Of something which
remains as picture in the minds eye, Is
the far-famed Cave of Amarnath, which
is hidden far away among the glaciers of
holy Himalaya. | had heard so much
about it; for two days as we JOurneyed
toward it | had met on their backward
way the pilgrims returning from 1T.
Aye! and half buried in a snowdrift
mere and there [ had seen those who had
fallen by the way, dead of exposure,
cold, starvation; for the season of pill
grimage was nigh over and hasty winter,
III those high attitudes of 10000 and odd
feet, was coming fast in the footsteps OF
the lingering spring, which had but just
passed into a week or so of transient
summer 1t had been strange to note the
faces of those stricken ones; those turned
toward the unreached cave, so full of
care and stress; those turned hOmeward
again, peaceful, cOntented.
For perfect forgiveness of sins awaits
Ifhe sinner at the cave.
SO by stupendOus cliffs, icebound rivers
a,and finally the stiffest snow slope l have
ever attacked we came at last upon
Amarnath. And, 10! there was nothing,
,or nigh to nothing, to be seen.
A shallow hollow in gypsum rock A
frozen spring rising dome shaped from
the chalky floor. A rude boulder roughly
shaped in the image of a ball and daubed
with red.
That was all outwardly. But within,
unseen, yet dreamt of, how much?
The cry of many men who have sought
and have not found, the cry which echoes
down through the ages to our own times,
the cry:
''To what God shall we offer sacrifce?'
We of the west consider the question
over our cigarettes.
The Indian will not even blow upon a
burning light or fire to extinguish or re-
lxindle it, lest by so doing he might defle
the Light that is some day surely coming
to light the world.
Herein lies the true picturesqueness Of

The density of the earth as whole

The Army and Navy.

The United States navy is the surest
guarantee of peace which this country pos
sesses The President does not ask that the
navy be increased but asks that it be main
tanned at it's present strength. To stop
building ships for one year means that for
that year the navy goes back instead of for
ward. Each year one frSt-claSS battleShip
equal to any being built b. other nations
should be built. Of course from time to
time cruisers and other Warships must be
built. AS our ships are constantly wearing
out this programme would result in keeping
the navy at it's present strength.
The President urges that the best men be
secured for both the army and navy by of
fering all possible encouragement to the
enlisted men in pay and otherwise, He de-
sires that the younger men be advanced
more rapidly as too often under our present
system, men are not promoted to high posi-
lions until their advanced age makes them
of little use.
The President points out that both the
army and navy illustrated it's readiness and
efficiency by it's rapidity in dealing with the
recent crises in Cuba when the mobilization
and dispatch of troops over the sea was the
quickest on record. 1t was a fine ilustra-
ton of the value Of the general staff.
The President closes his message by urg-
ing the eSta bliShment of shooting galleries
in all the public schools where frequent rifle
practice can be held. The little republic Of
Switzerland offers US an excellent example
In all matters connected with the building
up of an efficient citizen soldiery, says the
President.
Appended to the message is the address
of Secretary Of State Root as honorary
president of the third conference of Ameri-
can republics at Rio de Janeiro, July 81,

Technical and Industrial Training.

Technical and Industrial Training.
The establishment of technical and in
dustrial schools to encourage the fullest de
velopment Of scholars in both commercial
and Industrial training is urged for the Dis
trict of Columbia. The President wants the
District to be model for the states to fol-
low. He strenuously combats the training OF
boys and girls in purely literary accomplish
ments and urges teaching of trades in the
public schools.
Agriculture.
The President makes plea for the farm
err whose welfare he says is vital to the
whole country. He urges provision for the
education Of the farmer. He tells of the
good work of the agricultural department
and commends the formation of oranges in
many parts of the country.
Irrigation and Forest Preservation.
No government policy for the betterment
of our internal conditions has been more
fruitful of good than the development OF
the national policy of irrigation and forest
preservation. He urges that the forests OF
the White Mountains and Southern Appala-
chan regions be preserved.
Memorial at Arlington.
He calls attention of Congress to the re-
Quest for an appropriation for memorial

Marriage and Divorce.
The President thinks the whole question
of marriage md divorce should be regulated

tion would make it possible to deal with
rreeions fhe death rate greatly exceeds the
birth rate and says that willful sterility is q
sin for which. there is DO atonement and
means the nations death. He says no man
or woman can shirk the primary duties of
life and retain his or her selfrespect The
President advocates a constitutional amend
ment giving the federal government control
of marriage and divorce.
American Shipping.
law for the development of American
shipping is needed. He admits that the law
would benefit primarily our seaboard states,
but he says that what benefits part of our
people in the end benefits all. He says that
in case it is impractical to encourage ship
ping generally, then at least provision
should be made for better communication
