obligatoir,y, Arbitration / !

~ r 81
Mr.. Root retired from the Office of
Secretary OF State with two score
treaties of arbitration to his credit
an achievement OF which any states
man might be proud These treaties
raised the number Of similar pacts
between different nations 70 aDontI
eighty, by which practically every
nation of Importance contracts to-
submit to arbitration disputes not in
vclvtng dts national honor. Sweep
ing as is the exception. the value of
the treaties is great: obligatory
arbitration in certain classes of cases
is directly recognized; and as the
machinery OF arbitration is improved
national honor will become less
and less inclusive. The Hague
Tribunal Is growing in influence.
And the plans for a proposed court
Of Arbitral Justice await only the In
itiatiye otsa few nations in appoint
ing judges. Increased confidence in
such agencies is almost sure to fol-
low IN proportion to their use.
And Is worth while to remember
that the Porter proposition adopted
by the Hague Conference of 1907,
agreeing that force shall not be
used to collect contract debts with
out an offer of arbitration is Moth
ing less than universal obligatory
arbitration of one class Of cases. +
It is announced that the Rev. Mr..
Hare, the head of the Anti-Saloon
League in West Virginia. is liked by

as having been out the most of the
time for business and made it come
from the viewpoint of money.
Whether the Rev. Mr.. Hare purposes
to follow in Alvord's footsteps is
not made plain in the announce
ment.

WHEN YOU WEEP.
The Way That Tears Act Upon the
Human Organism.

The Way That Tears Act Upon the
Human Organism.
Professor Waynbaum, NJ. D., OF
Paris publishes some queer facts re-
carding the nature and purpose OF
tears, coming to the conclusion that
tears act upon the human organism
'like chloroform, ether or alcohol"
"When q human being gives way to
sorrow" says DR.. Waynbaum, 1.-THE
blood pressure in the brain decreases.
The tear helps in this process, which
benumbs the brain for the time being,
causing passiveness Of the. soul al
most approaching indifference.
"Tears are blood, changing color by
their passage through the lachrymal
glands. One can drown his sorrow In
tears as one can benumb his senses
by the use Of alcohol or drugs. When
a person cries the facial muscles con-
tract and the appearance OF the race
changes. which action facilitates the
white blood letting, driving the blood
particles into the lachrymal gland
