her breath away" according to her
own statement.
There is not another country in the
world, indeed, where this kind of holt
day is possible. Americans, more
over, are the children of men of ad-
venture. Indomitabte daring filled
the pioneers who conquered the wild
erness step by step, and that untam-
able spirit is the heritage of their
children's children. With the serious
work of the frontier practically done,
what more natural than for the. people
to find an outlet for this spirit in their
recreations?
Our English visitor speaks of the
eternal spirit of youth of this
great playground" and laments the
fact that its pleasures are not avail
able for the men and women of the
older world. She declines absolutely
to believe in the materialism of
Americans and affirms that, as mat
ter of fact, romance is the common
place of American life.-Woman.

AMERICAN WOMEN ADVEN-
TUROUS.
The Spirit Which Dominates the
Whole Nation Is Especially
Evident in Play.

The thing which has most impressed
an English woman on her first visit
to America, is the spirit of adventure
in recreation which animates the wo-
men of the land of the free. Nowhere
in the world do women depart so abb
solutely from the conventional in their
play OF course, there are thousands
who go along the beaten paths, and
journey to the seaside or the noun
tains with never thought of under
taking anything else, but there are a
great number of others who go in for
the unusual, spend their holidays in
diversion which has no precedent.
There is the long driving-tour for
example, with unknown farmhouses
for shelter at night, and the delight of
exploring untraveled country, making
unexpected discoveries, and meeting
with all kinds of mild adventures in
the quaint "back woods" where the
railroad has not penetrated.
The hunting and fishing camps
where women share the hardships OF
men in the wilds for weeks at time.
filled this visitor with amazement, and
two women, who had been on a ca
noeing trip of several hundred miles
over an unfrequented waterway, took

as the law permits the insurance as- sociations either to treat infrm per- sons in sanatoria, or to give them pen- sions, large number of sanatoria have been erected all over the land.
 A very large proportion of sufferers in Germany who apply for allowances have tuberculosis. Among men aged from twenty to twenty-four who are incapacitated, about 55 per cent suf- fer from it. No less than seventy-four open-air sanatoria have been built for the treatment of these patients. On an average each victim remains under treatment about three months. In 1902 16,51S persons suffering from tubercu- losis, and 19,4S3 suffering from other diseases, were treated under the in- surance law. The proportion of tuber- culosis patients who regain power to
 work for living is more than 75 per cent, but a good many relapse when
 they return to their crow Jed dwellings and to hard work Yet at the end of four years after treatment S1 per cent. of the patients were able to work.

ouR pRospE pERous coUsINs.

The whole world isn't as prosperous as this part of it, but Great Britain seems to be holding her own, or at least, a part of what she thinks is hers. British commerce last year reached in value the enormous, unprecedented fig ure of $5,S01 2O9, 595. Of this tremen- dous total S2,267,26 ,13O is credited to exports and $8,OS9, ,465 to imports. The exports increased $229, 2S1, 495, while the imports increased $214,SS9, SSO. The December returns alone show an increase in exports of $13,7S5,0 900 and in imports of $7,767, 800. The principal in- crease for the month was in the inn ports of raw materials, of which cot ton from America totalled $5,OOO,OOO. On the other hand, the imports of grain decreased $4,5OO,OOO. The increase in exports was principally in manufac- tured articles.
 Big, certainly. Glad to see our great and good friends and relatives doing so well.

THE GOVERNORS MEssAe

The first message of Governor Woodruff will be read with more in terest and care than are usually be- slowed on governors messages. It has been expected that he would have something to say worth attention, and he has justified that expectation. His message is full of definite suggestions and recommendations. He would have a permanent and competent clerk of bills, a decrease in special Legislation, new stock of public service corporations issued at uniform and fair price, private banking institutions placed under State control, a commis- sion to consider the employers liability question. jury trials in suits for dam ages. abolition of the building and lean commission, a union of factory inspec- tion and the labor bureau, at least one woman factory inspector, the abolition of the school fund and it's distribution among the towns more uniformity of law, judicial separation instead of abso- lute divorce. where such relief seems appropriate, more good roads, the ap- pointmentof county commissioners and judges of city und borough courts by the governor, salaries instead of fees for public officers, a State armory and arsenal. a State library building, $5O,0OO for Hawley and Platt monuments, amendments to the corrupt practices act, insurance on State institutions and State property placed in the hands of one official. less money spent for stationery and sundries" by the legis- lature, less pernicious lobbying and honest and harmonious work by those whom the Dec~le have chosen to do sgoh work.
 This is a pretty good layout. and it ought to produce some corresponding action.

STATf-ATDED TNSURANCE

State-aided insurance in Germany seems to be working well It appears that about one German in five is in- sured for sickness, one in three for ac- cident, and one in four for infrmlty or old age Every year nearly $125 1000, ,OOG is paid to sick, injured, intrm, or old persons. Of this amount $62,5OO,OOO is found by employers, $5l, ,250,0OO by in- sured persons, and SIP, 25,OOO by the State. Every insured working woman who is confined receives an allowance for six weeks. The system of insur- ance for infrmity has had very re- markable results, It is, of course, much better for a person disabled by some cause other than old age, as well as for the community, that he or she should be enabled to resume work; and

POLITE, BUT PERp1ExFD.

The Japanese are noted for their po- nteness. but they don't always knew just how to act in this hustllng coun- try, One of them propounds some in- teresting questions in an interesting way to the New York Sun as fellows: A question of morals, please. If a Japanese, not always in Brooklyn residing, Is crossing the bridge to Manhattan and falls inio the row that waits to buy tickets up the subway? Having his five cents ready to avoid delaying somebody? If in the row before him are two ladies and be- hlnd him others, mixed as usual? Now, this being so, If a strong Brooklyn. lady, rendered hard, perhaps q do not affirm it) by many times crossing the bridge in the interruptions hours, glides up the line alongside and, avoid irz the two ladies before and the two ladies behind, seeks to insert herself by the elbow in the row in front of the one Japanese man? How shall he dol If he resists and presses close ahead is it not impollteness? If he yields and makes way is it not injustice? Oh, not injustice to him., but to the ladies behind him and behind them to- the men and women mixed? Is he in his position trustee to them? Should he call for their votes? I decided this question myself because I had to de- eide it. I will not say which way I de- cided. but it left my conscience un- easy. The same, I think, if had de- cided the other way. Is there some custom that the American man can rely on when a strong Brooklyn ladys elbow fnsinuates him to injustice?
 The Sun doesn't tell this perplexed man from Japan that there is any GUS tom that the American man can rely on when a strong Brooklyn lady's el- bow insinuates him to injustice. We do not believe there is any.

There isn't much peace. The fight over the Palace of Peace at The Hague is assuming a more acute form. As is well known, M. Cordonnier's project, to which the palm was awarded finally by the jury, is much too expensive, and if executed would cost about twice the amount set aside by MT. Carnegie. It has been a complaint of other compet- itors, who kept inside the limit, that the jury in arriving at decision took no notice of this breach of the rules, Every architect, they reason can plan a splendid building when there are no limits to it's costliness. We have kept within these limits, but others, among them M. Cordonnier, did not, and ob- tained much advantage thereby.

Rev. z. T. Sweeney of Indianapolis was for three years consul-general of Constantinople.

They don't object to a Christian being Christian or an Armenian being an Armenian. But they do object to a Christian or an Armenian meddling with the Mohammedan religion And venture to say that the large major ity of the Armenians massacred were agitators.

It isn't easy to fool the Germans. German military authorities are exper- imenting with a device by which the location of troops using srnokeless powder may be easily discovered. By this device it is proposed to survey the landscape through pale-red glasses. The flash of smokeless powder appears strong in red light, while ordinary ob- jects are dirnmed. By furnishing field glasses with the device sin question, which is provided with screens of the proper tint, the position of concealed nnarksnen can be detected.

It is a somewhat tragic foot-note to the history of civilization that wealth the fine old Saxon word meaning hap piness, should have become in modern English mere synonym for material riches-that wealth should no longer mean well-being, said Governor Guild in his message to the Massachusetts legislature. Tt is our happy privilege to restore in part this ancient and no- bier meaning of happiness to the word wealth, that the commonwealth of Massachusetts may signify, indeed, not a mere abiding place of riches, but a State whose chief concern is for the common happiness of all within her borders
