The demand for seif-government voiced
by the annual convention OF representatives
Of the people Of India, recently assembled
at Calcutta, Is symptomatic Of the growing
spirit OF opposition to alien domination In
Asiatic AFFAIRS. The triumph Of Japan over
Russia, blocking for the present, perhaps
for all time, the Romanoffs hope for an
open sea the year around awakens in kin
dred people the dormant spirit OF racial
independence. The awakening In China is
n substantial reality. Changes as swift and
extraordinary as those Of Japan are not
likely, but the nation is advancing at a rate
regarded as impossible ten years ago. The
national army has undergone thorough
reorganization in material. equipment dis
cipline and Instruction. Industrial life is
similarly imbued with the electrifying cur
rent of modern progress. Equally note
worthy is the determination OF the govern
ment to uproot the deadly opium traffic,
the greatest curse ever inflicted upon a
people by the greed of western civilization.
India derives encouragement from these
events The uplift Of success among
neighboring people is an impelling example,
especially so when It presents the sharp
contrast OF nationhood on the one side and
alien rule on the other. The task before
the home rulers OF India presents unusual
difficulties. There are 10000 British place
holders TO contend with an array Of native
princes Jealous of their power and priv
ileges, and SOO.OO0OOO people divided by
petty kingdoms and caste. Most serious
OF all are the religious animosities OF
Hindus and Mohammedans, and England
is past master in the art Of heaping fuel
on the fires of religious rancor But
modern education and expanding race unity
have wrought more surprising reforms than
the right Of self government which India
seeks.

A Constructive Flood.

The flocking of consumptives from
all parts of the country to the south
west has created problems in the lat
ter region with which the various
states are dealing in different ways.
In Texas the state health officer has
Just issued a statement in which he
says that victims Of tuberculosis in
its advanced stages will be debarred
from entering or remaining in that
state. He declares that conditions
make such a rule imperative. So
many INDECENT consumptives have
been pouring in and becoming charges
on the public that the people Of GER
tain sections are seriously burdened
in caring for such patients. This in
crease of the pauper population not
only works hardships on taxpayers,
but the scattering throughout the
state of throngs of tuberculosis suffer
ers of all classes causes an inability
to control the spread of the disease.
This is rather hard on health seekers,
but Texas surely cannot be blamed

One of the great perils Of India Is
the danger from serpents and wild

quently, and they are generally In

cobra" Then he relates that last
year there were reported 21,797
deaths from snake bite. But 1t is
admitted that the statistics are kept
very loosely, and it is believed the
actual fatalities will exceed the
quoted figures by at least so per cent.
This sort of thing has gone on indef-

total has averaged as high as that OF

A Generous Thief.

Trinidad, Colo.-While the master OF
the house was away herding his sheep
and the family was attending a fu-
neral, the home of Francisco Bigil was
broken into and $3.50 in greenbacks car
ried away.
A singular feature of the robbery is
that the thief took only the amount
named from roll of bills containing
$2.5O0. which was hidden in trunk.
The chief of police here was noti-
fed and a search was instituted.
Bloodhounds were taken to the house
and the dogs took up the scent at once
and went directly to the home of a
relative of Bigil. Suspicion lodges on
woman, but no arrests have been

Plea for Enlistinq.

No man who will look carefully
into the work of the army of the navy
can fail to realize that a career in
either branch of our military service
is one to which any man may give
himself with the fullest devotion and
with the highest ideals. Americans,
as rule. know little about the actual
work of either of these services, and
few realize that when a man enters
the service of the army or of the
navy, whether as officer or as enlist
ed man, he enters a great school, a
school in which is taught not only the
discipline of self-restraint, of cleanli-
ness, of devotion to duty. but in
which are taught also the elements
Of an education, says H. s. Pritchett,
in Atlantic. An enlisted man who
enters regiment of the army, barely
able to read or write, comes out, If he

sion Of the fundamentals Of an Eng
lish education. His officer stands tc
him not only in the relation of mill
tary director, but in the relation also
Of teacher and of friend. There

Dangers From Grip.

An attack of grip seldom results
fatally, but it is the indirict cause
of many deaths. If it does not re-
suit in pneumonia, which is FREE
quently the case, it leaves it's vic
tim with a cough which fingers on
long after every other symptom of
the disease has vanished. The
system is thus left in a weakened
condition and is susceptible to al
most every other disease. The
grip can be greatly lessened in it's
severity if Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is used, and any tendency
toward pneumonia is promptly
checked. There is no medicine
which has met with greater sue
cess in the treatment of this dis
ease. 1t cures the cough and
leaves the system in a natural and
healthy condition. For sale by
