Hdb " uIOnt lIlkhblul hIthm' " "h ing in alright he sent immediately for the court soothsayer, related the dream, and demanded an in- depreciation. The soothsayer lis- tened attentively and said:
 "Oh, most powerful and puissant monarch; the dream is one of dire ful omen: your relatives will all die before you"
 Franatic with rage the poten- tate commanded immediate execu- tion of the unfortunate soothsayer, and sent for another interpreter of dreams. To that one was related the dream, and he gave the same interpretation, suffering the same fate as his predecessor. Another was summoned to court and yet another, and again some more soothsayers, each and all giving the same interpretation. and all being hurried to the execution ground, until;the ealiphate seemed doomed to extinction of the entire race of soothsayers and dream in- terpreters.
 One day without summons, a man presented himself at the pal ace gate and demanded that he be admitted into the august presence of the dread sovereign. saying that he had an interpretation of the dream that would suit. He was reminded of the fate of all who had been summoned and failed, but that alarmed him not in the least. No one knew the dream, for the caliph had not made it known save to each would be interpreter; and they had all died too soon to tell 1t. But the newcomer feared not l the ordeal. He was ushered into the royal presence, andf was told the terrible dream. The monarch | had dreamed that his teeth had all | fallen out from their sockets and out from the royal mouth. The man listened attentively and said:
 "Oh, most illustrious and glo- rious caliph; the omen is a good one: You will outlive all your rel atives."
 At that interpretation the mon- arch was pleased greatly. He re- warded profusely the perspicacious soothsayer, and loaded him down with favors, retaining him at his side, and advancing him swiftly to the chief post in the government. Yet he had told no more than had all his ill fated predecessors. But he had told it in different way. One offended greatly, while the other pleased entirely.
 Now that seems very much the situation of General Fred Grant, in his recent unfortunate speech at Philadelphia. There is hardly any difference between his own version of the remarks credited to
The oasis., 1907-03-02
SAME STORY DIFFERENTLY 1olo.

Grant, U. s. A., an illustrious son of thrice ilIustrious sire, seems to have got himself into hot water by a speech made at a banquet of a Grand Army post at Philadelphia, one evening early in the week. The published report states that he was asked to tell the Post some thing about his great father, which he vas not 10th to do, and which his auditors were delighted to hear; for Fred is ready always to des- can't upon his fathers merits as a soldier and a statesman, and the vetefahs of the Civil War are ready always to hear personal reminis- cences of the one great soldier who commanded them all. The report as published in some of the news papers state that in the course of his remarks Fred "deplored the fact that the President ot the United States had seen fit to deal with and consult with the criminal mayor of city upon a grave question of international law; and such condition could not have occurred forty years ago." (Forty years ago was interpreted to mean at the time when the father of the speaker was President. He was inaugrated thirty-eight years ago, next Monday.)
 As reported the remarks of Major General Grant can be con strued q severe criticism and con demnation of President Roosevelt's policy in the Japanese-California school-question, and as such it is in direct violation of the Articles of War, amenable to court-martial and dimissal from the army, If a verdict of guilty should be reached by the court. In army circles the episode has created a sensation which rivals the Thaw case.
 Immediately upon reading the published version of his speech the general addressed to the New York Times a communication asserting that he had been misquoted, and hs gave his own version of what he had said. That was that "he de plored the fact that conditions are such now that the President of the United States has to consult witt a criminal mayor in the settlement of grave question of internation' al law" Furthermore General Grant assured the Times that he heartily commends and approves the Presidents entire course in the matter. In his speech he criti cised, not the President but, the conditions of affairs in the United States which require that of a Pres ident which would not have beer necessary forty years ago, So it is the same story told bit differ ently.

AGE AND CANCER VICTIMS.

DR. Leonard Keene Hirshberg's in
teresting article on cancer in The
American Magazine contains a mass
of facts. OF the age and nationality
OF victims the author says:
Cancer is malady of civilization.
White men are more prone to it than
yellow men, and yeilow men more
than negroes. 1t is unknown among
the Eskimos and rare in the East In
dies. Here in America it is more
prevalent than in Europe, and, I'M
luckily, its ravages seem to be con-
stantly increasing. In the last fifty
years of the nineteenth century the
1912. More accurate diagnosis and
investigation may account for part OF
this increase, but certainly not for
ALL 1t is matter of common knowl-
edge, in truth, that cancer is spread
ing.
Whether climate and diet have any
thing to do with it is largely matter
of speculation Some investigators hold
that it is disease of meat-eaters
and yet they must face the fact that
the Eskimos, who i've on meat en-
tirely. do not have II, Others blame
1t on fish-eating, ana till others on
bad drainage. T. W. Mum, VINO
made a most elaborate investigation
of cancer in England, came to no Ger.
tain conclusion at all. He noted that
districts with a BADLY trained SUBJ
soil seemed to produce more cancer
than better drained sections, and he
decided that the grouping OF cases
was due to more than mere coinci-
dence. But further than that he reacn-
no positive opinion.
Cancer is almost invariably dis
ease of the middle-aged and elderly.
In the United States, in 1900 but two
out of each 5000 cancer victims were
less than 1 year old. The great ma
jority were more than ~. Amang wo-
men the years between 55 and go
were the most dangerous, and among
mortality rose from 8 in 100000 to
men those between 8 in 100000 to
both sexes the disease seems to grow
virulent at the period o. those
changes which take place during the
middle forties. From that time on,
until 95, and even to 100, it is serious
