Imitation enters into the very fastness

strength of this appeal to the ina gination
that the proposed naval and military dis

pia' sPohe at the meeting at the Hotel AS
tor yesterday afternoon, when the Com
merclal and Industrial Aspects of the Peace
Movement were considered He said:
The international conferences of Amari-
can republics have SO much to do with pro-
noting harmony of interests among the ma
tons concerned that all other governments
of the world. especially those of Europe.
must concede that they are second only in
| international significance to those gather
ings at The Hague 5--. zh.
THE three conferences held in the ,ast
fifteen years have set many wheels of Pan
American activities in motion that never
would have started otherwise They have
acted as lettering influence on wars and
revolutions
This institution, which is supported by
the twenty-one independent nations of the
western hemisphere. is becoming a powerful
international agency, not only for the pro-
motion of commerce and trade. but for the
cementing OF closer ties of friendship and
association.
"The United States has no desire to
retard the growth of European trade in
her sister republics, but holds that there
Is abundance of opportunity for the United
States and Europe alike; and. in turn, the
United states government in the hope Of
seeing South America reaching out for
wider markets in the United States trusts
that she will also build up and extend her
trade in Europe as well as in the United
states. and thereby bring about a greater
prosperity for all concerned"
James w Van Cleave spoke on the I'm
p1tance of Peace in Industry" saying, in
part:
Americans must be allowed to rule
America. The Monroe doctrine was one
of the longest steps toward universal peace
the world has ever seen. 1t removed one
half of the globe from the clashng ambi-
tons and injustices of old-worId politi-
clans.
international commerce is the greatest
promoter of international peace. The
more buying and selling between nations
the better friends they become. Each has
a stake in the game OF International peace.

AFFECTION OF THE NERVES,
stammering Not Always Due to De
fects in Vocal Organs.

"stammering is often more the re-
suit of habit than from any defect of
the vocal organs" says Prof. B. L.
Pavyer. 1T is generally, if not al
ways, caused by spasm of the
larnyx, resulting from nervous con-
traction of the organs, thus refusing
to PRINT proper flow of the air cur
rent producing tone. People rarely
or never stamnler when singing, for
then the attention is divided between
the words and music, the nervousness
Is momentarily forgotten and the pas
sage of the air current through the
larnyx is continuous and unobstructed
Stammering very often is the result
OF Imitation, sometimes intentional,
sometimes unconscious, and the af-
fict1en is much more general than
might be supposed. In one compare
lively small section of the city there
are IS stammerers, and every one of
them is able to demonstrate to his
own satisfaction not only that he does
not stammer very badly, but that
some other person he knows STAN
mers great deal worse than himself.
Every stammerer is intensely sensi-
tive about his infirnity, rarely for
gives and never does forget any allu-
sion to it which in his mind savors
of ridicule.-St. Louis Globe-Demo-

quently what they call the truth is
not abstract at all, but is merely the
expression Of their own particular
(and frequently erroneous) opinions.
Yet as they utter it they glow with
spiritual pride and feel themselves in
the same boat as the Christians of the
Catacombs and the rest of the noble
army of martyrs; never realizing that
their cause is no tenet Of an inspired
creed, but merely an embodiment Of
their own pet prejudices; and their
sacrifices on its behalf is neither their
own life nor wealth, but merely the
feelings and the sentiments of other
people, says Woman's Life. Such per-
sons are very fond of remarking that
they owe it to themselves to say ex-
actly what they think; it never seems
to occur to them that they likewise
owe it to others to conceal what they
think, if such thoughts be inimical to
the general pleasantness and we'll be-
ing of society at large; yet surely
they have never been taught that their
duty to themselves comes before their
duty to their neighbors

~ASToNIsHED CHILD OF sLUMS,
Pathos in Little Girls Exclamation of
Wonder.

It was case of the meeting of ex.
tremes. A beautifully appointed baby
carriage, enameled in white and with
all it's fittings and coverlets of snowy
spotlessness, was being trundled
along an uptown street, says the New
York Times. In it lay pink-and
white baby, nesting amid frills of
lawn and lace. Approaching from the
other direction was a group of little
Italian children, evidently on their
way home from school, Dressed in
heavy-looking clothes of every pos
sible color, the only uniformity pre-
sented was the general hue of dirt,
which seemed to be common to the
clothing, as well as the hands and
faces, of all. Certainly the contrast
between the baby in the carriage and
the children on the street-many Of
them scarcely more than babies them
selves-could not have been more
marked Something of this seemed to
impress the children. Pausing for a
moment, they gazed at the carriage
with admiring eyes, while one little
girl drawer than the rest, peering
under the hood to get better look
at the occupant, exclaimed: my!
What whiteness!"

which he will not soon forget. While
driving along through the city streets
something went wrong with the
mechanism of his car and he found
that he was unable to stop it. Though
moving at a lively clip the cars pace
was within the speed limit, and Mr.,
Julius, with great presence of mind,
steered fSDon. meanwhile giving his
spare attention to search for the
trouble. This search he finally aban-
doned, and then began the endurance
run, which continued up hill and down
through the streets and over country
roads for several hours. The machine
continued to bowl merrily on, and Mr..
julius was in despair, when he passed
a garage and managed to attract the
attention of a mechanic, who jumped
aboard and by removing a few plugs
brought up the runaway.

Elephant VS.. Crocodile.

An African hunter once found a
large crocodile hanging in the fork of
a tree about ten feet from the ground.
AS the place was fully half mile
from any water, it was difficult to &C.
count for the crocodile's strange po-
sition. When questioned upon the
subject the natives explained that it
was put there by an elephant. 1t
seems that when the elephants wade
into the Lake Ngami to battle the
crocodiles are in the habit of worry
ing them and biting their legs. Some
times when an elephant is annoyed
beyond endurance it picks it's tor
mentor up and puts it among the
branches of a tree and leaves it there.

they are never absent from the,

husband finds this consciousness
trifle wearing. AS bad as the clinging
vine is the woman who makes her de-

tactful, never CONSCIOUS that he wants
to be alone occasionally, never capa-
BILE of making herself and her affec-
lions novelty to him. And this is a
fatal error on the part of any woman.

Never let the horse stand when

It takes more skill to market a crop
proftably than it does to grow it, at

pasturage in the fall after the corn is
cut
You may not be able to afford a

the present stable more sanitary.
The sore places on your horse
should be kept clean by washing every

Be sure that the new trees you set

about the trunks, as they will cut
