70 call attention TO the practice
OF some patrons Of rural delivery
OF placing loose coins in their
boxes each time they desire to

plying themselves with postage

practice imposes undue hardship

irons of rural delivery provide
themselves and keep on hand a

II is also very desirable that

chasing supplies OF stamps.

AMBAssADORIAL PRESTIGE.
Sometimes 1t Is in the Man, Not In

From the Boston Transcript
on one of. the hot days of the short but
burning ST. Petersburg summer. Alex
ander I advised John Quincy Adams, our
Minister to Russia, to take country
residence until autumn should come.
Then divining from the American Min
tster's silence the motive FOR his stay IN
the superheated capital the Car added,
hut perhaps there are reasons" and
turned the conversation to subjects
which admitted of no restraint. Yet the
American Minister who could not afford
TO leave St. Petersburg and follow the
court to the country was not a man with
out prestige He had so much of it as
to induce the Car to seek 20 mediate
between the United States and England
to bring the War of 1912 to an end The
Car had troubles enough on his hands
TO exempt him from such a request, but
he appreciated the American diplomatist,
even though the latter lived quietly Nor
did the Russian society of that day un-
dervalue Mr.. Adams The prestige was
in the man and the Russian statesmen
realized it. They had seen a great deal
Of profession. Of lavish luxury maintain
ed by ambassadors to impress them.
without being impressed. Shortly before
the Czar and Mr. Adams had their con-
versation, Napoleon, in approving the
bills which his ambassador had Incurred
at ST. Petersburg. added the comment
that while he wished the dignity of the
empire to be maintained by the French
embassy, loading down its dinner tables
with grapes and melons in midwinter and
letting loose floods Of the costliest wines
were not the way to do It. Does the
man think I sent him there TO be a res
tauranteur?' was his question.

VALUE OF THE IMMIGRANT.
Brings TO Us Best Qualities of Many
FOREIGN Lands.

AAnSs
From an address By Jane adams. Of Hull House.
It will be grave reproaeh TO the
American nation in another hair century
II the spiritual and social value of the
immigrant has net been discovered. This
country. which has virtually no indigen-
Gus art and which has been forced TO bor-
row or import from the older countries.
should seize this vital source lying fit 10
its hand, TO enrich its older importations.
There is no reason why these modern
men and women, taught your modes OF
expression. should not tell their musical
lore, fresh with the tang of the earth, Of
unspoiled sweetness. TO the benefit of
American music. They construct their
crude little dramas from the common life
OF their people, yet these uplift, rest. and
ennoble the magnificent function of art
because the playwrights, like Anteus.
have renewed their strength from the
earth and have told with forceful ear
nestness the stories OF the immigrant
colony.
It is when these people give you their
own spiritual life, or when you get it.
not with Investigations. but through a
friendly comradeship. as they have preL
served it among themselves, that you
may benefit It is not when you have
fought them the qualities Of your ma
tional life When the colonies that are
now hedged about with the barriers of
alien customs, alien speech. alien observ-
ances. are seen IN the light Of a larger
experience; when they see the new coun-
try into which they have been thrust by
circumstances or iugsd by big desires,
with broader sense of the double reia-
ton, then the real value Of the immi-
grant will be revealed
A better understanding of the immi-
grant will be not only material and ar
tisttc and spiritual benefit. but an ex-
ample in some ways as we'll These peO-
pie whom you regard vaguely as unclean,
unlettered. and unworthy Of considera-
ton are almost without exception intel
ligently patriotic. with q pride In their
own lands and their own heroes which is
cnly gained after years of study in their
countries histories. These men are versed
in international relations; they bring to
their relative standing here in the new
country a complete knowledge OF their
relations in the cid and willingness 10
abide by them.
They are. in their completeness. as
worthy OF consideration as If they were
colonzed in their own countries 20 which
hosts Of persons go each year for inter-
est or information. But their spiritual
value their pieturesqueness. their social
value. their industrial significance. are
dependent upon their cOhesiveness, their
exclusion of the superficial influences of
the new country which rObs them Of the
best Of their inheritance and gives them
the worst of their acquisition. and their
recognition Of their own nepotism as
their strongest card in establishing the
positions they have come 10 seek.
