honor, can be adjudged properly and
in peace.
The day of localism and even OF
nationalism has passed and when some
important law is to be passed by the
legislative body of nation the ques-
ton is asked of how it will be looked
on by other countries. II we pass
tariff bill, we consider what Germany,
England and France will think of it.
IL England passes an important act
through parliament what the United
States, Russia and the other powers
will think of it is a matter of para
mount Importance. In all ways the
nations of the world are being brought
closer together and the interests of
one are becoming more and more close
ly identified with the interests of the
other.
IF President Taft should propose
to England and Germany that the
three nations enter an agreement by
which all disputes which may arise in
the future should be submitted to ar
bitration, they would take the matter
up at once, and it would end all chance
of war But it would not end there.
! Every nation in the world would fol-
low suit and the era of force would
| close Immediately and be followed by
the era of peace and progress.
such an act on the part of Plesi-
dent Taft would make Taft's name i'm
mortal 1t would pass down to future
generations as that of the greatest
man of his country, beside whom all
others would appear as pygmies. It
would come from him most properly
as jurist of the greatest ability and
one interested beyond all others in the
settlement of matters through Judi
cial means.
Not only would it come from Mr..
Taft with propriety on his personal ac-
count, but on account of the fact that
as President of the United States he
represents practically the only nation
which can afford to make such a sug-
gestion. Coming from any other OF
the world powers it would be looked
on with suspicion, but from the United
States, which has no bone to pick WITT
any nation, which stands forward for
progress in its very best and strongest
sense, it would be accepted at once
and become the universal law of the
world.
Two months ago had a long con-
ference with Mr.. Taft on the subject,
when 1 presented to him the resolu-
lions of the Lake Mohonk Conference
on International Arbitration. He
gave me more time than l expected
and l spent nearly an hour in placing
the arguments in favor of such a plan
before him. At the end he seemed
deply impressed and said that it was
a matter to which he would devote
much study. 1 have great hopes that
he will take some action in the mat
ter. The other nations are waiting
for the lead of the United States in
this matter and as 1 have said there
is no man NOR fitted for the work
than President Taft.
mo, do not think that court Of
seventeen members is too large, that
it would be unwieldy. In such a court
every element of the human family
must be represented and each man
must be the highest type of the nation
which he represents. The decisions
must be rendered with the greatest Of
care. Such court would accomplish
the greatest work which we now have
TO do, the bringing about of universe
and lasting peace among the nation:
of the earth.

MALE nLADY OF THE HOUSE"
Not Uncommon for New York 5oaro.
ing Places to Be Conducted
by Men.

"a man acting as lady OF the
house in a first-class boarding house
was a distinct surprise 10 re, SAD
a New York woman who has been
trying to find a pleasant home for a
friend from out of town. IN a single
morning | came across two boarding
houses where men were in charge.
The first man was quite sommunica-
tive and when l expressed my regret
that ] could not make arrangements
with his wife instead of himself, he
said:
".Oh, I run the place now. My wife
died three years ago and rather than
break up l took charge OF it myself.
People wanted to stay and it was
easier to let things go on in the Old
way 5
1.-THE second mar didn't have the
same excuse, as he'd never had a wife.
He'd been living in the same house
for a good many years and when it
was about to break up several years
ago he took it over rather than give
UP his comfortable home. Incidental
ly he tod me he was opening a small
boarding house down at the seashore,
which was easily reached by the ele-
waited road, and that his guests could
come down there for a week end and
always feel at home. He a no
claims to being a hotel Eeeper-just
a man who was playing 'landladys 10
q boarding house."-New York Sun.

PASTORAL A~DJUNCTs.

In these days the demands upon
the skilled playwright are many and
complicated. "Too busy to do a lit
tie work for me right OFF," asked a
theatrical manager, and the play
wright signified his willingness to
attempt it.
"All eight" said the theatrical
MANAGE. "We've got permission
from the author to put on a drama
tization of The Minister'S Vaca-
tion,' that country book that's so pop
ular; and the authors willing we
should work in one OF two more in
eidents to make the action lively.
"Now | want you to write up a
cyclone and a couple Of trick mules.
Eve got the machinery for the
cyclone, and the two mules are great.
l want the pastoral flavor Of the
book kept, you understand, but just
a little more go in it."-Youth's
Companion.

eth it, without publishing it to others,
shall not prosper; but he hat publish
eth it to others shall be blessed by me,
and if their sins be as many as the
stars of the night, and if they truly be-
lieve, they shall be pardoned, and they
that believe not this writing and my
commandments will have my ~pleagues
upon you, and you be consumed with
your children, goods, cattle and all
other worldly enjoyment that | have
given you. Do but once think of what
| have suffered for you-if you do, it
will be well for you in this world and
in the world which is to come. Who
soever shall have a COPY of this letter
and keep it in their house, nothing
shall hurt them, neither pestilence,
lightning or thunder: and if any woman
be in birth and put her trust in me she
shall be delivered of her child. You
shall hear no more of me, except
through the Holy Scriptures, until the
day of judgment. All goodness and
prosperity shall be in the house where

Popu!arizinq the Potato,

One Of the most remarkable menus
ever drawn up must have been that
of the feast ia Paris to which Benja.
min Franklin, Lavoisier (the founder
CT modern chemistry and other dis
tiDguished men sat down as guests of
Parnent.er. Every dish at this ban
quot was made of potatoes, ana ever
tie brandy and liquors were the prod
Uct of the same vegetable. This was
Parmcntier's final proof to his skep-
teal fellow ,countrynlen that potatoes
were net poison, as they persisted In
believing. Louis XVI. himself was
one Of Parnentier's earliest converts,
granted him land on which to grew
his plants and did not dEsdain to wear
the Eotato flower as a buttonhole.
TLGl Par-nentier c,everiy posted
guards round his potato fields by day
and withdrew them by night, so that
people were tempted to come then,
steal, eat and be convinced. The all.
potato banquet was the climax of the
great campaign.

Owner Of Costly Opera Glasses
Dropped from Balcony Had to &c
Satisfied with Exchange.

Between the second and third
acts said the girl who always sils
in the first row in the balcony at the
play, Il dropped my opera glasses
over the raiIing and they fell kerr
smash riglt on some woman's head.
She screau and so did I, not be-
cause she w4s hurt, but on general
principles. She had on too much
hair to feel the shock. The glasses
balanced for a second on her cushion
of puffs and curls, then slipped off
into her lap. There was a little ey-
element, but pretty soon everybody
quoted down. | was going down to
apologize, but the usher in the aisle
said he would attend to that for me.
and be sure to bring my opera
glasses back | said. 'They are an
expensive pair and | can't afford to
lose them
Before he came back I noticed
that my victim had moved, but he
brought the glasses. The troable
was they were not mine. Instead Of
the 1872 pair | had dropped he hand.
ed me a pair Of the kind you can
buy in any department store for
&2.4o. When | told him that he
said he was sorry, but he thought
the lady had gone. She had, and
my opera glasses had gone with her.
Of course, the exchange may have
been unintentional on her part, but
the more likely supposition is that
the woman thought she was justified

know that | can blame her"
