President Roosevelt has addressed to
the Secretary of War a letter suggest
ing that the address made by Admiral
Togo just. before the dispersal of the
combined war fleets be issued in a gen.
eral order as model for American sol

Japan to keep themselves in practice
in times of peace, so as to be ready
whenever war may come.

Health aud RRnufY Hints


Lemon juice is harmless and excel
lent nail polish.
Sleeplessness is often produced by
heavy bedclothes.
A cold in the head can often be
speedily cured by inualing burnt cam
phor.
Be careful to use only the mildest,
bandest, purest, unscented soaps when
bathing.
If nails are brittle soak them daily
for five minutes in sweet oil, warmed
to blood heat.
Alcohol baths will do away with
goose flesh and rubbing with the oil of
sweet almonds is also very effective.
The use of a fine comb should be Sc
verely frowned upon. 1t irritates the
scalp and causes dandruff to form.
Eggs make an excellent shampoo for
silver locks and little hluing should
always be added to the last rinsing
water.
Lotions containing epson salts and
glycerin are very dryIng to the com
pleXion, and i'll time will turn. the skin
yellow.
Many authorities advise the drinking
of hot water half an uour before meals,
upon rising in the morning and going
to bed at night. Cold water. however,
offers Il greater stimulus to the organs
of digestion.

SCISSORS Of wealth. They are" she
says so delighted by the pomp of
life and the elegant appointments
brought within their reach, that they
overestimate their Importance. They
mistake display for gentility and fancy
that good breeding consists in famili
arity with the last fad in dress and
furniture. There is no country in the
world where fashion holds such abso-
lite sway as it does with us, where
poor as we'll as rich feel obliged to lay
aside any article of clothing as soon
as it is out of style In the old world
people are not ashamed to wear out
their garments. The American woman
has long felt an overwhelming ankle

undue weight Of care resting upon her
with regard to the appointments of
her dining room. She makes haste
TO follow every new fashion in glass
and china ware, in forks, spoons and
table decorations so far as her means
will permit
The inevitable result Of attaching
too much Importance to triles is that
matters Of greater moment are neg
lected. The woman who looks at man
ners from the standpoint of the ca
terer or the SilverSmith forgets that
the essentials of good breeding are not
affected by the fashion of the moment

consequence of the great and rapid in

plutocracy whose magical rise to so

THE COAL SITUATION.
Strike of Anthracite Miners Now
Seems PrObuhle

OI Miners NOW
Seems Probable.
The coal mine situation is far from
being settled. No man can prophesy
with any degree of certainty just what
the outcome will be. From present ap-
pearanceS, however. it seems likely that
the bituminOus miners will receive a
considerable advance in wages rang
ing anywhere from SO to II per cent.
This, however, is dependent upon the
outcome of the dispute between the
anthracite miners and operators The
anthracite miners have demanded an
increase in wages, an eight-hour day,
equaliZed pay and other notifications
of the present system. The operators
have announced that they will refuse
every one of these demands. If the
men force the operators to increase
wages OF if they close the mines by
striking, the bituminous operators will
grant the advance demanded of them.
for the reason that the increased cost
of production or the lessened OUTPUT of
anthracite would create a greater de-
mand for soft coal and therefore give
them an entering wedge into market
now controlled by their rivals. The
success of the bituminous miners de-
ponds, it would seem. on the anthracite
men either going on strike or winning
their demands, and at the present mo-
ment a strike seems probable The OPP
orators claim they have so much coal
on hand that unless a strike is pro-
longed during the greater part of a
year it will not be necessary to raise
the price of coal

HOW to Garry Money.

We are advised, by an eastern jour

money is in a small bag hung around

piece of ribbon securely fastened Have
the little bag buttoned or hooked to-
gether, or use the patent fasteners.
which are really most convenient of
all. Wear this just inside your waist
and you can get at it easily if you
need to.
OF course, when a waist fastens in
the back this bag is not available and
the inside pocket must be relied upon.
Drop loose change in small quantities
into a coat pocket. but never a loose
bill, as it will be blown or thrown out
when you least expect it.

TRUSTS ARE HIT.
Supreme Court Decides They Must
Convict Themselves

Corporations can not receive immu-
nifty from determination as individuals
and corporation officials must testify
when called before grand juries. Off
GERS Of corporations may be granted
immunity as individuals. but must pro-
duce evidence to convict the corpora
tons in which they are interested. All
corporations are creations of sover-
eigu power and are not privileged to
commit any Illegal act or possess any
thing unlawful. When a corporation
does either it is placed beyond the pale
of constitutional protection.
This is the principle laid down by
decisions of the United States Supreme
Court in four cases affecting the paper
and tobacco trusts. The result will be
that all corporations must produce
their books and papers when actions
are brought against them by the gov
eminent and witnesses may be COM
PEELED to answer all questions. Indi-
vidauls may have immunity from self
determinations, but corporations are not
lAtllA ttlu1iS.
1t is possible under the Supreme
Courts decisions for the Department of
Justice absolutely to prevent the COM
mission of illegal and unlawful acts by
any corporation. No corporation against
which proceedings are instituted here
after can avoid convicting itself if any
of its acts have been illegal. A cor
poration will hencefOrth have no pro-
lection in the courts from self-conyic-
ton unless its books and papers are de-
stroyed by some officer, who will as
sumo responsibility for contempt
Two opinions were rendered regard
ing the tobacco trust and two affecting
the paper trust. Justice Brown handed
down the decision on the tobacco trust
and Justice McKenna on the paper
trust. Justice McKenna read his deci-
sions first and referred forward to
Justice Browns opinions, which follow
ed. thus interlocking the four cases in
yolving Identical PRINCIPLES
