WAR AND THE JAPS.

An expert writing in one of the Lon
don papers calls attention to the fact
that if we are basing our belief that
there is no danger of war with Japan
on the ground that the latter is too
poor to fight, we are making a great
mistake He declares that 1t is the
poor nations that can afford to go to
war, for they have little to lose and
everything to gain. History shows
that it has been the poor nations that
rushed into war. Germany did it in
1870 and enriched herself thereby.
Japan gained by her war with Russia.
The United States is one of the few
nations that did. not attain wealth and
power by successful war. Rome by
the cultivation of the arts of peace
alone would never have been mistress
of the world, nor even rich.
We do not regard the japanese
danger as an immediate one, but We
do consider it mere folly to assert that
she can not afford to fight with US.
There is scarcely nation in the world
with which she can not afford to go
to war, for in every case her chances
Of gain would be UNNECESSARILY great
err than her chances of loss. No ma
ton which refuses to maintain an ade-
auate navy and army can hope for
continued peace.-Char1eston News
and Courier

OUT DOOR
SLEEPING FULLY EXPLAINED BY ANTI
TUBERCULOSIS ASSOCIATION.

Directions for living and sleep
ing in the open air" is the title of
pamphlet being sent out today by
the National Association for the
study and the prevention of Tubcr-
culosis to its local representatives in
all parts of the United States.
The pamphlet is meant for those
who desire to sleep out of doors in
their own home. 1t emphasizes the
fact that outdoor sleeping is as de-
sirable for the well as for the sick.
The booklet viii be sent free of
charge to anyone applying for it at
the headquarters of the National
Association for the Study and the
Prevention of Tuberculosis in New
York, or to any local secretary or
state anti-tuberculosis association.
Some of the subjects of which the
pamphlet treats are, how to take
open air treatment in a tenement
house; how to build small shack or
cabin on fat roof in city; How
to make one comfortable while sleep
ing out of doors either in hot or cold
weather; how to arrange the porch
on country house; and how to
build cheap porch, the construc-
ton of tents and tent houses; the
kinds of beds and beddings to use in
outdoor sleeping; and various topics.
The book is well illustrated and at
tractively prepared.
The object of the book is to sug-
gest particularly to consumptives
who cannot secure admission to a
sanitorium, how they can be treated
at home under the direction of a
physician. In view of the fact that
there is less than $4,000 hospital
beds in the United States for con-
snmptives, and fully 10000 who
should be in the hospitals, the
National Association urges that more
attention be paid to sleeping in
properly provided places at home,
and IL every case the best be made
of the patients environment.

IT'S YOUR KIDNEYS.
Don't Mistake the Cause of
Your Troubles. A Point
Pleasant Citizen Shows
Howsto Cure Them.


Many people never suspect their
kidneys. If suffering from lame.
weak or aching back thev think that
it is only a muscular weakness; when
urinary trouble sets in they think it
will soon correct itself. And SO it
is with all other symptoms of kidney
disorders. That is just where the
danger lies. You must cure these
troubles or they may lead to diabetes
or Bright's disease. The best rem
edy to use is Doan's Kidney Pills.
Itcures all ills which are caused by
weak or diseased kidneys. Point
Pleasant people testify to permanent
cures.
William Foglesons, chief of police,
Main Street, Point Pleasant, W.
Va, says: have had no occasion
to use.any kidney medicine in years,
as the cure effected in my case by
Doan's Kidney Pills has been
permanent. In March 1905, | pub
licly endorsed this medicine. after it
had rid me of an annoying attack of
backache. which plasters and other
preparations had failed to relieve
and ! can now confirm my state
ment. procured Doan's Kidney

CULTIVATING THE CORN.

Nearly all the corn in West Tir-
ginia is late this year. As if to
make up for the loss of time due to
cold weather, there has been an ex-
cess of heat for some time; and the
corn has been growing very fast.
The weeds have been growing fast,
too-in some fields faster than the
corn. The corn-grower needs to be
on the job every day: he needs
to keep the weeds down and to help
the corn by frequent cultivation.
Not all of US realize the fact that
our cultivated plants ought to have
monopoly of the ground they oc-
cupy. They need to have all of the
Ground-room, all of the moisture of
the soil, all of the available fertility
of the land, all Of the summer
sunshine. Besides this, they need
air in the soil, Frequent use of
the cultiyator helps them to all.
The task of the farmer is to give his
growing crops this monopoly of the
ground and of all the things that
promote their growth.
This is especially important in
respect to corn. For corn is our
major crop in West virginia; corn
grows faster than any other crop: it
demands more water and more avail
able plant food during July and
August than any other crop; and, 10
give it this water and plant food,
the farmer needs to keep the weeds
in absolute subsection and the soil in
perfect filth. This perfect tilth is
the real object when the best and
most abundant and profitable growth
is expected; for frequent shallow
tillase during the dry, hot weather
saves the soil-moisture, keeps the
weeds from robbing the cultivated
crop of moisture and fertility, and
promotes the solution of the plant
food materials Of the soil.

THE HOBBLE SKIRT.

Paris, that incubator of feminine
fashions, from which spring foolish
fads for frivolous females, has stirred
the heart of woman with new crea-
ton labeled the "hobble skirt. 1t
is not our intention to 90 into a de-
tailed description of the garment, as
our education on femme apparel has
been limited to observation without
a diagram. We merely wish to make
suggestion for the assistance of the
victims.
Viewed from the outside of store
window, the hobble skirt appears to
be all that the name implies. 1t is
made to blind woman at the knees,
thus impeding her locomotion and en-
forcing a walk considered by some to
be graceful. but to Others resembling
somewhat that of duck.
The effect is procured, so women
tell US, by drawing sash through
Sits in the skirts. To make it more
pronounced and obtain the close cling
ing effect, the skirt is fastened to
the knees with court-plaster. The
secondary importance of the court
plaster is SAID to be to give the weav-
er the chic appearance Of regular
cut up
After woman has donned the
skirt, she is expected TO Danish all
thoughts of sitting down, boarding
street cars or stepping into auto
From the usual fve-yards
width at the knees, the skirt has
been reduced to one yard, and any
attempt at taking step upward or
running a foot-race IS likely to result
disastrously.
In view of the report that the
skirt may become popular, we suG-
gest that street-car conductors and
be provided with bale
hooks to assist hobble-skirt patrons.
The hook could be fastened to con
venient button-hole in the back and
the hobbled one tossed jauntly in and
out Of the cars. Those anticipating
the purchase of a hobble skirt are ad-
yised to practice walking in sack.
As the picnic season is in full blast,
this practice might be obtained by
participating in the sack-race.
