sees herself married to the millionaire,
who showers gold upon her until at
last she turns into golden statue,
from which ordeal she awakes to &C
cept the offer of the poor cadet. He
also dreams about his much boosted
ancestry, which however. turns into a
nightmare. for he has a visionary

Heads of Navy Are Annoyed By Women

officers, illustrates the prominent part

pens to widen this breach. Only a
few days ago Ensign Charles NJ. Aus.
tin, son of Representative Richard
W. Austin of Tennessee, was deprived
of an especially desirable berth by the
navy department merely because he
got married. He had been detached
from the dispatch boat Dolphin at the
Washington navy yard and ordered
to Japan for duty as a student at.
tache at the American embassy al
Tokyo for the purpose of studying the
Japanese language. On the way TO
his new post of duty he stopped at his
former home in Tennessee and was
married to a girl he had known fol
many years.
This was too much for the unro,
mantle departmental authorities, who
suddenly decided that a married en-
sign would not make as good a stu
dent of the Japanese language as a
bachelor. Accordingly his orders
were revoked and instead of spending
his honeymoon in Tokyo he will have
less interesting service at the naval
training station on the Pacific coast
He will, however, have his wife.

HIGH MORALS IN AMERICA
Standard Higher Than in England,
American Tells British Royal
Commission.

r. Newton Crane, senior counsel to
the American embassy in London,
told the royal commission on divorce
in England recently that there is a
higher standard of morality in Amer
lea than in England
He admitted that divorce is more
prevalent in this country than in any
other country in the world except
Japan, but contended this was due
to the fact that persons Of respecta-
bility had come to regard divorce as
a firmly established institution, de-
signed to cure unhappiness.
J. A. Barratt, of counsel to the
American embassy pointed out that
there are more varied causes for di-
vorce in European countries than in
the United States In Austria "in-
vincible aversion" in Hungary 'veXa-
tious modification, in France "prodi.
gality and violent disposition" in Swe-
den opposite of feeling and thought
amounting to hate" and in Formosa
"loquacity" are considered sufficient
grounds for divorce
In Algeria, where there are thirteen
causes, previous wooing in which no
final acceptance or refusal has been
made" was a cause of divorce, Bar
raft argued there is not a single cause
Of divorce in any state in this coun-
try that cannot be duplicated In
Europe.

spring. Twins are a bad omen, and
among some of the tribes il has been
customary to tie them TO a tree and
permit them to perish
Sickness is supposed TO be a punish
ment inflicted by the spirits of the
dead. Dreams afford a medium
through which the spirits of the dead
communicate with the living The
Atayal and Paiwan groups believe the
virgin forests to be the abode of the
spirits of their ancestors, and on this
account trees within certain desig-
mated areas are never disturbed. Old
men and women have supernatural
powers of the kind usually attributed
to witches, and for this reason they
perform the religious rites for the
tribe.
Spirits of dead persons other than
ancestors are dangerous and possibly
malevolent. The Atayal consider that
the ghosts of their forbears will not
be satisfied unless a human head is
part Of the offering made at ceremo-
malls. Likewise in the case of a dis
pute between two persons the spirits
of his ancestors will guide and pro-
tect the one whose cause is just, so
that he may obtain the first head and
thereby win.
The soil of Formosa is exceedingly
rich, and nowhere is a finer quality of
tea produced. The eastern half of the
island is covered with jungle, in
which grows the valuable creeper
known as rattan. But the most prec-
ious vegetable product is camphor,
which is the resin of tree that grows
to huge size, sometimes attaining
diameter of twelve feet.
The only way to get the camphor is
to chop the tree into chips, which are
subjected to a crude process of dis
tillation, the vapor, when condensed,
being deposited in crystals on bamboo
screens. This is crude camphor,
which comes to market in wooden
tubs. 1t is refined by redistillation.
At the present time Japan exports
about 100000 pounds of camphor
annually, one-fourth of it being ship
ped to the United States. 1t used to
be refined in Europe and America, but
now the Japanese refine their own
comphor and ship the finished pro-
duct.

TOHN HAY had a saying that the
y ideal diplomatic service-if any
government ever succeeds in having
one-will be composed exclusively Of
unmarried men. Mr. Hay had no eX-
perience in naval matters, or he might
have included the navy in his maxim
There probably is no branch of the
government service, the Washington
Post says, where petticoat influence
is so strong as in the navy. Ask any
ex-secretary of the navy about it and
he will tell you how the navy women
in a thousand different ways, some
times unconsciously and occasionally
deliberately, annoy the navy depart
lment. He will tell you how they
scheme to obtain desirable posts of
duty for their husbands or sons and
how they annoy the department with
requests for a change of orders when
their husbands are transferred from
an easy job in Washington to sea duty
on the Asiatic station or some other
far-away tropical post. The recent row

added that the Atayal tattoo their
faces very elaborately, and build ele-
giant huts of bamboo, over the door
ways of which are hung as trophies
the skulls of wild boars and apes, and
sometimes those of Japanese and
iChinamen-the latter with pigtails

History tells us that the Spaniards
took possession of Formosa in the
year 1926. They were expelled by the
Dutch in 1912. Nineteen years later a
Chinese pirate chief named Koxinga
drove out the Dutch and proclaimed
himself king of the island, but in 1882
the Chinese dethroned his successor,
and Formosa remained a province of
the Middle Kingdom up to the war be-
tween China and Japan, as a result
of which 1t passed into the possession
of the MikadO's empire.
A glance at the map will show that
Formosa is really the northermost ISL
and of the group which we call the
being situated only
short distance to the north of Luzon.
Its wild people are undoubtedly of
Malay origin. But its earliest inhabi-
tants were black dwarfs, belonging to
the same race as the pigmy negritos
who still survive in small numbers in
Luzon. Many of their skeletons have
been found in the mountainous inte-
rior, and it is reasonable to suppose
that they were exterminated by the
savages who now occupy their terri
tory.
AS already stated, these savages
have never been subdued. From an
point of view, they are
more than ordinarily interesting.
Their garb ranges from nudity to gay
colored garments of their own weav-
ing, made from the fbers Of banana
and ramie. The women are kindly
treated and have equal rights with the
men. But If a wife loses her husband
after the birth Of a child she is not al
lowed to marry again, the idea being
that her business thereafter is to at

From Memorial day to the Fourth
of July the large white daisies in some
form, dwarf or tail-gTowing varieties,
are found in abundance, decorating
the unimproved grounds of suburban
country seats, and yet proving daily
annoyance to farmers throughout the
hills and valleys Of eastern Pennsyl-
vania, according to a correspondent
Of the Philadelphia Record. No soon
er are the large daisies gone for the
season than the little oX-eyes and the
other white and yellow blooms with
dark centers, known as July and Au-
gust daisies, and only eXclamations
of delight and rapture are heard from
the appreciative youngsters who are
"out a-daisying"
While the daisies have been well
known both in censure and praise for
many, many summers, it is only very
recently that the responsibility Of
their introduction into this country
has been credibly fixed. Horsham
