 which is rolling on as we go further and further south, there is to be an acme, climax, in the city of New Orleans in respect to which there is nothing in this country that can ex- ceed it. l don't think that New UT leans is organized for business at all. think it is organized for the pur- pose of making visitors happy l hope we will live through it. I have expe- rienced good deal of hospitality in my life, q good deal concentrated in the last forty days, but look forward to that New Orleans reception with mixed feelings of joy and fear.
 'The lack of uniformity of some of our laws is distressing and yet we cannot amend the constitution of the United States in order to correct the evil that grows out of it. We must by team play, by team action, through the legislatures of the states, accom- plish that reform anu while we, by inviting the governors, do not invite the legislative power of the state. we do invite those men who have much to do with directing what the legisla- ton shall be and whose constitutional function it generally is to recommend legislation to the legislature with very considerable influence in that regard
 Now, my friends. that is the thought that came to me tonight as I have sat about the table and if it be necessary to have a suggestion in or der to bring about that meeting, 1 shall be glad to make it myself. We are going to have a meeting of the civic federation some time in Decem- Der to consider the question of the uniformity of avs and their being made uniform by action of the states Whether that would be convenient time to bring the governors together or not I don't know. Of course can rot do anything else than hang out the latch string at the White House Congress cannot control that and if that will bring you there, certainly I shall throw it out.
 q want to thank our hosts of St. Louis for this opportunity to meet the governors under such pleasant circum- stances and to wish the whole taing from St. Louis to the gulf a success. D

The Poor Ensiun.

The following story of German mill
tary officialism is published In Lon
don: One Ensign Flugge claimed com
pcnsation for damage to kit caused by
mouse having gnawed hole In his
best tunic. The officer who had to de-
eide the point dismissed the claim and
ordered the ensign to be severely pun
isned on the ground that, contrary to
orders, he had hung his best tunic on
a nail when going on guard at night
in an inferior garment instead Of pack
ing 1t in his linapsack, thus enabling a
mouse to gnaw n hole in it without
having to overcome the slightest i'm
pediment." Ensign Flugge appealed,
and OH further hearing ii appeared
that the officer who first dealt with
the case was mistaken in the facts,
the tunic having been slowed in a
knapsack at the time when the mouse
defaced it and not hung upon a nail.
The first decision was therefore set
aside by higher authority, and Ensign
FluCge was ordered to be severely
punished for having slowed his tunic
in his knapsack instead Of hanging 1t
on a nail, thereby giving opportunity
to the mouse to knaw hole in it "un-
der cover of the darkness" The senti-
ments of Ensign Flugge are not re-
corded.

FhiIanthropic laisers.

In several remarkable cases real phil
Ianthropy has been Il miser's motive
In spending and saving to grotesque
degree. Thus when the first Pasteur
Institute was suggested in Paris to
keep green the memory Of the world
famous scientist poor wretch who
lived In utter misery came forward
with IL subscription of $500. And
when the city officials called upon him
with a message Of thanks they found
him in an evil smelling slum behind
the Cathedral Of Notre Dime. When
the door was opened the miser philan-
thropist was found quarrellng violent
IL with his miserable looking serv-
art for throwing away match that
had not been burned at both ends. A
similar case, but on 4'uch larger
scale, was that of JacqL>j GurgOt Of
Marseilles. Every one in the city knew
and hated him for his incredibly sor-
did life, yet when the old miser's will
was proved all France was amazed to
find lie had left $250,OO0 to his native
city especially to furnish the poor
with a good and cheap water supply.
Il know" the old man wrote. that
10000 Of our citizens died OF the
plague during the epidemic Of 1920,
which was generated by the noxious
rflluvia arising from filthy streets that
were never cleansed. - New York

The Arab Mare.

The Arab is regarded as the first or
horsemen and the Arab mare as the
perfect steed. The Arabs idea OF
horse tanning is of the simplest. The
colt is treated from the first as a
member of the family. 1t goes in and
out of the tents and Is so familiarlzed
with the doings of that extraordinary
creature, man, that there Is never any
need Of breaking it in. The Bedouin
is very careful of his mare. He does
not mount her when he sets out to
play his usual tricks upon travellers.
He rides camel TO which the mare
is tethered. Not until the caravan Is
in sight does he mount the mare and
give chase. There is, by the way, an
impression that the Bedouin is a
bloody minded person who would as
lief take your life as not. This is un-
fair to him. He is a thief of very
peaceful inclinatiOns and much pre-
fers to effect any necessary transfer OF
property with as little bother rs pos

when the chiefs wear them, but the
common people content themselves
with putting flowers in their hair
and behind their ears, like we saw
in Tahiti. So far as dress goes,
however, these people are far adj
vanced, and there is none of the
loin cloth apparel such as was seen
in the other islands visited. The
men all wear smart clothes, trous-
ers and shirts, with gay sashes
around their waists, while the wom-
en- wear flowing robes similar to
those worn in the Hawaiian islands.
Their feet and legs are bare, for
GOODNESS, but otherwise they are
dressed so properly that they would
not offend the most fastidious.
They love gay colors and each Sc
lectcs those most to his liking.
Both men and women are tall
and massive of build, and the mon
walk with an alrof pride.
In fact so marked is this walk that
it is called the "Tongan swagger.
Tongan women enjoy better times
than those of any other race OF the
South Seas, for the men have not
made them beasts Of burden, but
tighten their troubles as much as
possible. They say that work
makes the women ugly and they
prefer to have them beautiful. In
Of this feeling much
of the homework, even, is done by
the men. All of the outdoor work,
such as is done by women on other
islands is done by the men who do
not seem to think it degrading.

Hn,m We Fall Asleep.

1t is not generally known that the
body falls asleep in sections. The mus
cles of the legs and arms lose their
power long before those which sup
port the head and these last sooner
than the muscles which sustain the
back. The sense Of sight sleeps first,
then the sense of taste, next the sense
Of smell, next that of hearing and last
ly that Of touch. These are the results
Of careful and lengthy investigation by
a French scientist, NJ. Cabanis.
