Really what we ought to do is to send few armies
over to China to 'mow down. or "wipe outn the
ceestals Possibly few gunboats should be sent up
the rivers first to drop shells into the Chinese villages
The English have used this method very successfully
In this way large numbers of people who never heard
OF the United States may be very comfortably slain.
1t keeps the gunners in good practice also.
What is the trouble all about you askf Never
m1nd! There is no necessity of explaining that. If
there is trouble, will proceed to make little.
We used to order the Chinese out of our villages
and to kill them when they didn't go We barred all
Ghnese from landing shores and insulted their
scholars But that is for them to refuse to
use our goods. We propose to show the heather by
PRACTICAL demonstration that they belong to an in
ferlor race If we throw explosive shell eight
or ten miles and wipe bunch of inferior people,
1T may serve to demonstrate to them their inferoty
and to beget with them wider liberation for our re-
hgious work in their midst .>s.z--i--- -.
We are great nation. mighty nationl Our
magates have the people and magnates of other great
nations pretty thoroly skinned. So was Russia a
great nation. mighty nation 1t was accustomed
to wipe OUT and to NOW down. inferior peoples.
One day while wiping out semi-barbarous people
that happened to be in the way, Russia got in front

Strong nations with tears gathered up the remains.
The mule had stammered with his left foot. The
9wiping out has been necessarily delayed. ->=-.,
If we are going to wipe out inferior peoples this
should be stern lesson to not to delay the wipng
until too late.
An article going the rounds of the papers devoted
to the household tells with frils elbow to Serve
Strawberries Nothing makes so mad as an arti-
Gle like that. Everybody knows that the way to serve
strawberries is to pour them out into saucer, sugar
them freely and eat with spoon. 1t has always been
that way and no one ever heard grandpa complain.
But today Kate Kean somebody wants to provide
each berry with a low-neeked ball dress, dolly,
paper napkin and dash of talcum powder. Then the
strawberries to be deseeded cut into segments and
each segment carefully rolled in something. :
Grandpa would Throw em out Of the windern
and them right. Some people think that
eating STRAWBERRIES is society affair with artificial
lights and yelling in the drawing-room.' It is
Eating strawb berries is pleasure partakng something

Censure has been passed on Joseph Letter and
others because they gave the royal bride and groom
charvari at But there two ways of looking
at this There almost too much stateiness in the
wedding, and Letters serenade really the needed
breath of Americansm. This is the view of the Kan
City STAR whose instincts pretty good on
tiers of this kind. The Star says that old shoe
thrown after them they left the White House. Then
like revving breeze, followed the cbarvari led by
Joe Letter and joined in by other highproo society
wags. This had the effect of clearing the air COM
petely It lent to the marriage the touch which
brought it into harmony with popular feeling and that
seemed to the pepetuity Of institutions
Poor Little King Alfonso will never know the fierce
JOY of American charivari with the section
of the crowd sneakng out behind the palace, eating
the grapes and tipping over the woodshed. .-
