THE SHIP SUBSIDY.

1t cannot be denied tnat tnere arc
some arguments in favor of the ship
subsidy proposition to encourage trade
with South America. There are also
arguments against it. Secretary Root
Just home from his South American
tour. makes a strong plea for 1t, and
this will count for much with many
people.
But as general proposition ship
subsidies are not needed by American
people, The plea that the government
ought to give subsidies in order to en-
courage American shipping and to have
American goods transported in Ameri-
can ships is sophistry. America is fair
ly busy Just now in other lines, and If
We can hire foreigners to carry our
goods cheaper than we wish to carry
them ourselves, it isSgood business to
let the foreigners do 1t.
But If by giving small subsidies. bet
ter facilities for shipping to South
America can be secured, thereby in
creasfng our trade with our South
American neighbors, it is worth looking
into. The great danger is that If sub
sides are given to South American lines
it will not be long until other lines will
get in on the subsidy graft and soon
the country will have a gigantic evil
fastened on it.
The Hill and Hartman trans-Pacific
lines already have strings on the pres
ent proposed subsidy measure for big
amounts Both are established lines
depending on legitimate business, yet
both these big transportation magnates
expect to get a slice of the subsidy.
Here is the way it is divided:
Hartman line to Japan. 100000
Hill line to Japan. 700, 900
Spreckels line to Australia. 200, 900
New York to Buenos Ayres.... SOC, 900
New York to Rio Janeiro...... 500 900
San Francisco to Valparaiso. soc, 900
New Orleans to Colon.. $50, 900
Total ........ ............$ So. $50, 900
According to tho Chicago Tribune,
dubious methods are being employed
to force this subsidy measure through
the lower house of congress. Four
members of the committee that rec
ommend it will retire from congress
on March 4. Without these four mem
bers the committee would be against
the proposition. Therefore it must be
pushed through before March or
there is danger that it will not get
through at all. Usually committees
hear arguments and evidence on both
sides of an important measure before
it is acted on, but in this case it is as
serted that the subsidy measure was
reported without giving it's opponents
an opportunity to be heard.
Lastly. but not least. if it is desired
to build up trade with the South
American republics, reciprocity trea-
ties will accomplish ten times as much
as will a ship subsidy, and the increase
in trade would make a legitimate de-
mand for regular and well equipped
steamship lines. But reciprocal trea-
ties might hit some of the big trusts,
and they would not give the transport
alton magnates something for nothing,
as the subsidy proposes to do. There

Secretary Root has enriched the lit

country's policy toward its weaker
neighbors at the south, which will be

Whitman's Poetry.

Walt Whitmans poetry, in spite Of
the long, jOggled, numbering places In
it, comes nearer to reaching out to
what the modern age is trying to be
than any other that we have. Whit
man may or may not be considered a
poet, but he has outswept the bounds
of beauty for human life. He has seen
the whole universe in every clod Of it.
He has Gods definition of beauty.
Naturally he does not express 1t as
well as God does. His symbolism Is
crowded with hapless places, and Gods
symbolism never misses the point, but
as the ground plan for great modern
poet-an original or working poet in
new built, new building, working world
Walt Whitman is the first and only
figure large enough that the world has
had. He had a larger repertory of joys
joys with everyday things that any
man might have-than any other poet.
His autobiography would take in lar
ger section Of the univerSe.-Putnam's.

Sleep and Old Ace,

There is no question that the quantity
OF sleep required steadily diminishes
from infancy to old age. This is a
rather interesting exception to the gen
eral rule that, as in many matters, old
age returns to the needs of infancy.
AS regards sleep, old age is more re-
mote in its needs from infancy than Is
any other period of life. If elderly
people obtain good sleep during the
first few hours and If they have not
lost that delight in reading which we
all had in youth, but which SO many
of us curlously lose, their case is not
to be grieved over. The special value
of the earliest hours Of sleep, by the
way, has been proved by psychological
experiment. The popular phrase beau
ty sleep" is well warranted. 1t is the
early, the deepest, hours of sleep that
make for henlth and beauty.-Pall Mall
Gazette.

|RAVAGES OF
TYPHOID fever
CAN BE STOPPED If FOLLOWING
PRECAUTIONS ARE CAREFUL
LY OBSERVED.

1. Typhoid is caused by germ
which is found In the mouth, stools
and urine of patients suffering with
the disease. Therefore in every case
of typhoid the spit, vonIt and dis
charge should be sterilized Place one
teaspoonful Of formalIn In the vessel
with these discharges; leave them
stand covered Is minutes and then
burg them in the back part Of the
garden. Never put a piece Of news
paper on the floor for the patient to
spit on. Flies get into it and carry
1t on their feet to the table ana de-
post it on the food an dso spread the
disease.
9. Keep all flies out Of the room.
There is nothing worse than flies for
spreading typhoid. They are tIltay,
lightning on any piece Of soiled linen,
selling themselves. and then lighting
on food and wafer COMMUNICATING it.
Use screens and fly poison and drive
them out
3. One, and only one, person at e
time should nurse the typhoid patient
and while she is on duty should do
nothing else. She saould not touch
the cooking or baking. After she
bathes or otherwise attends to the
patient she should carefully wash
her hands IN soap and water immed!-
ately after touching the patient,
4. The bed linen should be renewed
as soon as 1t is the least BIT so!led.
1t should be soaked in tub of wa
ter containing two tablespoonfuls Of
formalln for at least an hour. rinsed
in fresh water and hung in the Sun
several hours. All towels and other
linen touching the patient should be
sosken and dried in the sun the same
way.
1t is really a sin to neglect these
simple precautions for II tney are
carefully followed typhoid fever
win not spread but will surely dis
appear from the community.
The neglect of these precautions
spreads the disease and causes thou
sands Of deaths yearly.-Dr. cowley in
