France is the first-a tardy first-to

Arms and Legs.

According to the result OF many
measurements made at the An.
chronological laboratory in London
the right arm in human beings is, in
a majority of cases, longer than the
left arm, while. on the contrary. the
left leg is longer than the right leg.
Sometimes. however. the relative pro-
portions are exactly reversed, but
very seldom does perfect equality
exist between the two sides. The ten
dency of the right arm to exceed the
left arm in strength is somewhat
greater in men than in women, while
equality of strength in the two arms
occurs almost twice as frequently
with women as with men.

Duty of Nation to Nation.


The other type of duty is the interna-
tional duty. the duty owed by one ma
ton to another. I hold that the laws Of
morality which should govern individu-
ais in their dealings one with the other
are just as binding concerning nations in
their dealings one with the other. The
application of the moral law must be
different in the two cases, because in
one case It has, and in the other 1t has
not, the sanction of civil law with force
behind IT. The individual can depend for
his rights upon the courts, which them
selves derive their force from the police
power of the state. The nation can de-
pend upon nothing of the kind, and
therefore, as things are now, 1t Is the
highest duty OF the most advanced and
freest peoples to keep themselves in such
a state of readiness as to forbid to any
barbarism or despotism the hope of ar
resting the progress of the world by stri-
king down the nations that lead in that
progress. It would be foolish indeed to
pay heed to the unwise persons who de-
sire disarmament to be begun by the
very peoples who, of all others, should
not be left helpless before any possible
foe. But we must reprobate quite as
strongly both the leaders and the peoples
who practise. or encourage or condone,
aggression and iniquity by the strong at
the expense of the weak. We should toll
crate lawlessness and wickedness neither
by the weak, nor by the strong; and both
weak and strong we should in return
treat with scrupulous fairness. The for
eign policy of great and self-respecting
country should be conducted on exactly
the same plane of honor, of insistence
upon ones own rights and of respect for
the rights of others, as when brave and
honorable man is dealing with his fell
lows Permit me to support this state
ment out of my own experience. For
nearly eight years / was the head of q
great nation and charged especially with
the conduct of its foreign policy; and
during those years 1 took no action with
reference to any other people on the face
of the earth that I would not have felt
justified in taking as an individual in
dealing with other individuals.
believe that we Of the great civilized
nations of today have right to feel that
long careers Of achievement lie before
our several countries. To each of us II
vouchsafed the honorable privilege Of do
ing his part, however small In that work.
Let us strive hardly for success, even II
by so doing we risk failure, spurning
the poorer souls of small endeavor who
know neither failure nor success. Let us
hope that our own blood shall continue
in the land, that our children and chill
dren's children to endless generations
shall arise to take our places and play a
mighty and dominant part in the world.
But whether this be denied or granted by
the years we shall not see. let at least
the satisfaction be ours that we have
carried onward the lighted torch in our
own day and generation. II we do TINS,
then as our eyes close, and we go out
| into the darkness and other hands grasp

part has been borne well and valiantly.
