My Dear Miss Poynter:

my lear MISS
I am going on a visit this summer to
a town where the family of a young
man friend of nine lives. l am not en-
gagged to this young mai nor do I know
his family, but his mother and sister
have written to me inviting me to
spend a day with them. Do you think
1t would be proper for me to do SO?
A DAILY READER.
1t will be perfectly proper for you to
spend the day with you friends
mother and sister, and It was thought
full of them to extend the invitation.
They probably understand that you are
not engaged to the young man In ques-
ton but are interested in you as one
of his friends. Accept the invitation
even If 1t should necessitate your CIV
ing up some other pleasure.

SPEAKS NINE WORDS BESIDES
"BOW.WOWl"

They have a dog in Germany who
can talk. His name is Don and ne
belongs to Miss Ebers, daughter of
Hermann Ebers, a royal gamekeeper.
Don's vocabulary at present is not
very extensive. It is said to consist
of but nine words, but there is no
reason why it cannot be amplified.
The gifted animal can now say
Don ''Haben" Chavez, 'Ruhe
Quiet, Hunger" (hunger), "Ebers,' -
"Haberland" (Which is the name OF
his mistress's fiance), Gut" (good)
"Schlecht" (bad) and "Mehr" (more)
His ability to speak was discovered
quite accidentally. He was begging
at the table. His mistress asked him
in German what he would have, and
he answered "Haben" Chavez He
was then taught the other words.
The dog has been examined by
scientific men, and they have found
that he can really articulate. Sing.

in this matter?"

he saw any one asleep in my congre-
cation he should Immediately step

NEW YORK, July 14.-Of all the
Republican Presidents with whom the
present generation of Democratic
leaders was brought into close rela-
tions, Mckinley gained the greatest
admiration, securing from them some.
thing like personal affection. These
tributes from party opponents were,
in part, due to the personal qualities
of Mckinley; in part to the wonderful
act which he displayed in his relations
with members of Congress, and in
part to a kindness of disposition
which in no manner impaired his quail
ity of firmness. Recently there has
been much comparison, so far as per-
sonal attributes are concerned, be-
tween Mckinley and Oscar w. Under
wood, the leader of the Democratic
majority of the present House of Rep
resentatives. And it has been OBJ
served that since the return of Gov
ernor Woodrow Wilson from that
somewhat peculiar lecturing tour
which he made recently, and which
embraced much the greater part of
the United States, the disposition SER
iously to criticise, or reasonably to
analyze, his temperamental and intel
lectual qualifications for the Presi-
dency has become very strong.
The comments that are made are
critical, but not unkindly. Democratic
leaders say-if they are accurately re-
ported-that Governor Wilson has re-
vealed himself to be not of the tenn
peramental quality which is so desir-
able for a chief executive of the
United States. His disposition is to
drive rather than to persuade; to COM
mand, instead of counseling as a lead
er should counsel. In the next place,
word comes from Washington that the
Democratic leadership of the lower
House of Congress, which is now rec
ognized as far superior to the party
leadership of the federal Senate, is
persuaded that Governor Wilson talks
too much. Those are the exact words
which one of the ablest of the Demo
cratic leaders is reported to have
spoken recently when Governor Will
son was under discussion. 1t is
thought that the governors appeals
are made chiefly to the unthinking.
He has made himself very popular
with a certain radical element which
is not entirely confined to the Demo
cratic party. Now it has been said
that a demagogue, pure and simple, a
man who has made no study of Amer
lean institutions, and has had no
knowledge of the slow but steady
growth of the representative form of
government provided for in the Fed
eral Constitution, and who has a ca
reer to make, may be excused for &C
cepting and proclaiming some radical
propositions. But Governor Wilson
has been a profound student, both Of
American political history and of the
Constitution and it's Interpretation by
the Supreme Court. Therefore, he can
not plead ignorance when procIaiming
some of his very radical views, and
he must know that in proclaiming
them he is running counter to the
fundamental principles of the Demo

Anglo-Japanese agreement:
Preamhle.

Anglo-Japanese agreement:
Preamble.
The government of Japan and the
government Of Great Britain, having
in view the important changes which
have taken place in the situation since
the conclusion of the Anglo-Japanese
agreement of the 9TH of August, 1905,
and believing chat a revision of that
agreement responding to such
changes would contribute to general
stability and repose, have agreed upon
the following stipulations to replace
the agreement above mentioned, such
stipulations having the same object
as the said agreement, namely:
(a) The consolidation and mainte.
nance of the general peace in the re-
gions of eastern Asia and of India;
(b) The preservation of the com.
mon interests of all powers in China
by insuring the independence and in
tegrity of the Chinese empire and the
principle of equal opportunities for
the commerce and industry of all ma.
tiOns in China;
(c) The maintenance of the terri
torial rights of the high contracting
parties in the regions of eastern Asia
and of India, and the defense of their
special interests in the said regions;
Article 1T is agreed that when
over, in the opinion of either Japan
or Great Britain, any of the rights and
interests referred to in the preamble
of this agreement are in jeopardy, the
two governments will communicate
with one another fully and frankly,
and will consider in common the
measures which should be taken to
safeguard those menaced rights or in
terests.
Article II-If by reason of unpro
voked attack or aggressive action
whenever arising, on the part of any
power or powers, either high contract
ing party should be involved in war
in defense of it's territorial rights or
special interest mentioned in the pre-.
amble of this agreement, the other
high contracting party will at once
come to the assistance of it's ally, and
will conduct the war in common, and
make peace in mutual agreement with
it.
Article TII-Tne nign contracting
parties agree that neither of them
will, without consulting the other, en-
ter into separate arrangements with
another power to the prejudice of the
objects described in the preamble o.
this agreement.
Arbitration Made Possible.
Article IV-Should either high con-
tracing party conclude a treaty of
general arbitration with a third power
it is agreed that nothing in this agree
ment shall entail upon such contract
ing party an obligation to go to- war
with the power with whom such treaty
of arbitration is in force.
Article V-The conditions under
which armed assistance shall be af
forded by either power to the other in
the circumstances mentioned in the
present agreement, and the means by
which such assistance is to be made
available, will be arranged by the
naval and military authorities of the
high contracting parties, who will
from time to time consult one another
fully and freely upon all questions of
mutual interest.
Article IV-The present agreement
