is all right. but as for the one between
his country and Japan he asserts
that If that agreement is renewed

FACING THE CUSTOM HOUSE
American Women, According to a
Magazine Writer, Find tho Customs
Law Peculiarly Oppressive.

We American women find the GUS
toms law peculiarly oppressive be-
cause it is almost the only law with
which most of us ever come into con-
tact, says writer in the Century.
We go about our task at home, live
out our days and die, without a
thought of legal Obligations We are
proud of our freedom, too, when we
travel, glorying in it, boasting of per-
sonal liberty as the very breath of
our national existence, demanding,
because of it, the overthrow of SO
many social traditions abroad that
our less-favored sisters on the other
side regard us with awe and envy.
Then we start for home. One day a
steamship steward knocks at our
stateroom door, hands us the govern
ment's printed form of declaration.

denly, for the first time in our lives.
we find ourselves bump up against
the law. Some of us cannot under
stand 1t. We tremble; our hearts
beat. We have consultations with
friends and strangers Blood-curdling
stories are told. We can think Of
nothing else, talk of nothing else.
Where have we packed our new
things, where our old? Will they dig
out everything? VIII they believe
us? Those little presents we have
brought in-are they presents until
we have declared them? And SO on.
and so on, until our last days become
nightmare compared with which
seasickness is paradise. Neither is
there any man to protect US with any
OF those liberal Interpretations"
which stand most of us in stead. We
must go through the ordeal as we go
through death-alone!

A Doubtful Member.

In Miss Woods kindergarten class
there We're eight pupils, four girls and
four boys. One of the boys, however.
had not yet reached the estate of kits,
not to mention trousers. Accordingly,
when little Susan Phelps was asked by
visitor to tell how many boys and
how many girls there were. her con-
fused reasoning went as follows:
There's eight, one, two. three, four,
five, six, seven, eight, Miss Elliott" she
replied. And if he's girl"-she
pointed at one who wore dresses in
stead of manly garb-"why, there's
five girls, and one. two, three boys.
But If she's a boy, there's one. two,
three, four girls, and one. two-four
boys, She's really boy, you know.

sion. Youths Companion.

Martyrdom of Fools.

Two years ago Thomas Brooks
Fletcher was dated for Pennington,
drove all night to catch a train, reach
ed Lincoln, Neb. too late aid lost
out. 1t took him just two years to
reach Pennington. He spoke yesterday
afternoon, and was vigorously ap-
plauded, although his lecture was ev-
erything but comedy. Fletcher is
intensely earnest. He is a newspaper
man who has seen many of the trag-
edies of life. His "Martyrdom of
Fools" is the life story of men and
women who have been fools to Gus
toms, to habits. fools to the faults of
environment. His story of their
martyrdom approaches tragedy. He
pictured the martyr hereto Of IS
terday as the religious leader of to-
day. In the weak offspring of dis
eased parents he found the martyrs
improper surroundings, and lack of
proper training. He painted awful
pictures of those who fooled them
selves and made of them martyrs to
their own weaknesses. Thomas Brooks
Fletcher touched upon all phases OF
life, and from the mistakes of all the
high and the low, pessimist and
optomist he dragged out to open view
those who were martyrs to their own
foll1es, or were the creatures of their
time and place He attacked the
social evil, the saloon. the pious fan
attic, the careless parent ard the man
who votes it straight" He is not a
sensationalist. He wreathed coro-
net OF glory for little Ben Lind.ey,
and almost awarded Theodore Roose-
welt place among the deities.
Brooks Fletcher is an idealist. with
a good deal of good sense. He is
only wrong in his conclusions wnen
he gets into the dangerous labyrinths
of present day politics There is
enough of bad in 1t to deserve con
demnation-but the real reformer
should. not be classed along with mon
