and that the police had to intervene,
says Parsons Weekly.
Royalties seem to be getting un-
pleasantly handy with their fists these
days. A story is even going round
that our beloved Queen Alexandra has
been guilty of assault recently, though
it must be admitted that her majesty
fought in good cause.
Her majesty, driving in a pony cart
in quiet lane near Sandringham,
came upon tinker boy ill-treating a
dog. She was unattended, and having
no one to send to the dog IS rescue, she

The recent death of the Chinese SOW

The young emperor went to call on
his august aunt. He was attired very
smartly in garments that might hav-
been cut in Saville Row, an outrage
against Oriental tradition that was
more than the old dowager empress
could stand. In an outburst of fury
she covered the reforming emperor
with bitter reproaches. and snatching
mp her fan, she enforced her remarks
by dealing him vicious blow on the
cheek.
An incident that occurred in connec
ton with the recent Greek army ma
neuyers resulted in the crown prince
losing his temper and two railway Off

The prince had ordered a special
train TO be prepared at once. This
was done. but before the railway Off
eials would allow the crown prince to
start they insisted on the special train
being paid for. The prince flew into
a passion, ordered the officials to be ar
rested, and himself commanded the
driver to proceed.

JAPANESE HUSBANDS ARE THE BEST IN THE WORLD So Declares the American Wife Takamne of New York Cty-No Woman in the World Better Cared for Than Wife of a Japanese-Too Much Deception
 Here, She Declares

and, Knowing his income, she adapts her. self to it. <
 "There is much unhappiness caused here by the wife's ignorance of her husbands affairs. This leads to all sorts of misery and destruction of families
 "Another cause of much marital dis agreement here is jealousy on the part of both. Japanese women have perfect confidence in their husbands. They do not pick them to pieces with all sorts of questions if they return home late from a club or banquet.
 "One of the greatest enemies to mar ried life in this country Is that ever dom inant note of discord, who is the bossT Either the man wants to be considered the superior and the dictator of the household, or the wife insists on holding the prerogative. There is none of this pickering for power in a Japanese house. hold. Neither exhibits a desire to dic- tate what or what not he or she shall do or command. There is perfect under standing. Wife and husband regard each other in the light of companions, not as superior creatures, to be looked up to, or as little children to be looked down upon"
 Referring to Japanese Immigration, Mrs. Takamine said: Very many of the young Japanese who have come to this country belong to the Samurai. the aris- tocracy of Japan. During the old feudal days which are not so long ago, they were the gentlemen, the soldiers. the , knights and lords of Japan. Many des- cendants of the Samurai, with the man. ners and intellect of the thorough gen tleman, are working in this country, some of them doing menial kitchen work at $50 and $40 month, while going to night school or preparing for college or getting business education in stores or shops They are not lazy. They are ag- gressive, intelligent and anxious to better their condition. I presume some biased men in the labor unions in California, knowing this, are jealous of them. They know they cannot keep these Japanese down and keep them working at the same wages paid to unskilled immigrants of other countries"

TAX WEALTH, NOT POVERTY.
Payne Bill Leaves the Consumer Strug'
 eling Under Heavy Load.

From the New York World.
 Senator Aldrich has assured President Taft that the Senate substitute for the Payne bill provides for a downward re- vision of the tariff on every item which can be regarded as a necessary of life. The world hopes the report is true. In no other way could the United States Sen ate more fully re-establish itself in public confidence than by framing tariff that will tax wealth, not poverty, and reduce the cost of living.
 Mir Aldrich believes that a factory revision can be made without imposing special taxes; but why so much awe Of special taxes? If the present scale of ex- penditure Is continued the government must have an annual revenue of nearly $1, 600, 100000. Special taxes are Just and equitable method of distributing the bur den.
 Does the senator from Rhode Island know of 11y sound reason in economies why it is better to tax gloves, stockings. and clothing than to tax incomes, divi- dends, and inheritances? Is commercial paper more sacred than the breakfast table? Is the chief triumph of statesman- ship to lay as much as possible of the burden of taxation upon the poor and as little upon the rich?
 In justice to the House, it is only fair to say that the Payne bill, on the whole, was a great improvement over the Ding ley bill, and that the net result of the amendments has been to better 1t further. But 1t still leaves the consumer strug- gling under load that he need not and should not carry.
 The democratic senators are framing amendments which provide for dividend. income, and inheritance taxes. MT. Taft himself has publicly declared in favor of income and inheritance taxes, and is said to be well disposed toward a corporation dividend tax. If this is good enough re- publican doctrine for republican Presi- dent, it ought to be good enough repub- lican doctrine for a republican Senate, even though it be proposed and supported by democrats.
 The country is not going to be forever patient under the steadily ncreasing cost of living Although Senator Aldrich gives assurance of the downward revision of the tariff on necessaries, 1t Is very doubt ful if really equitable schedules relative to such necessaries would produce the revenue that Is needed.
 When everything is said and done, tho fact remains that the government must have nearly s1,o00. 100000 every year, and somebody must pay it? Who?

VALUE OF WHITE SPACE.
A Trade Papers Comments of Interest
 to Advertisers.

From Newspaperdom.
 It is the hardest think in all the world for man to buy newspaper space and leave it white A man needs to have progressed long way In the art of sell ing on paper to pay for space and leave unsaid some of the many things which to him seem essential. The very way in which he buys space, by the agate line, leads him to believe that it must all be utilized for selling talk. And yet, if he would stop to analyze what advertising is, that it is simply a part of the selling plan, he would realize, perhaps, the value of white space
 The first thing a salesman has to do is to attract attention. The first object of an ad is to attract attention. Now, it Is very evident that, given shee of paper which is perfectly white, you will attract attention by printing upon 1t characters which are perfectly black. The whiter the paper and the blacker the type, the more likely it is to attract attention. This is noticeable in posters and hand bills, but the advertiser quite forgets that with posters and handbills he has an im- rnense amount of white space. In a news paper, where everything is paid for, the element of white space is lacking, and so you have a dreary waste of type, each advertiser wing with the other in get ting his type as black and as thick as pos- sible.
 Not one of these advertisers but would use abundant white space if 1t were free. They would then realize it's absolute ne- cessity. In a newspaper where every agate line spells dollars and where the only way he can get white space is to go down into his jeans for the price, it's a different story. But white sapce is just as important in newspaper ad as 1t is in a poster or a handbill. And 1t must be had, even if 1t must be paid for.
 A few men have made monumental suc- ceses of their advertising by a liberal use of white space, and today every man who is using white space in reasonable quanti- ties In newspapers is getting larger re- turns for his money than any half dozen who are depending upon the largeness and blackness of their type displays.
