THE WAR AyD the HAGrE.

The memorial which was prepared by
so high an authority as Lord Aveburv
and which has been numcrOusly signed
I'm Great Britain i'm favor of reference
Of the Turko-italian conflict To the trl-
bunal at The Hague. and the similar
memorial addressed To the powers oF
the Permanent international Bureau of
Peace at The Hague, may not be i'm
mediately effective for the purpose for
which they are designed, but they arr
worthy of careful consideration. They
will probably not stop the war, but they
may accomplish other objects Of by no
means insignificant value.
The rebuke which is administered TO
Italy i'm these memorials for her preclpi-
tate aggression and for her failure TO
observe either the letter or the spirit of
the treaty of The Hague of which she
is Signatory. can scarcely be void of
influence. There is no occasion for any
other power 10 he cenSOriouS of her for
acting as presumably others would have
acted i'm like circumstances. But there
is occasion for Italy and for all other
nations to reflect upon this practical re-
pudiati0n of the pledges which were 80
formally and solemnly made amid 50
many high anticipationS of the friends
Of peace. This would not undo the
wrong which has been done, more TO
Italy herself than TO Turkey, but it
would strengthen the hands and voices
Of those in Italy as well as elsewhere
who regret that wrOngdOing and are
striving 10 lead her and other powers
into more worthy ways. II should thus
have chastening effect upon Italy and
exert a restraint upon the other ma
lions which might otherwise be tempted
to follow the same course.
Nor is there lacking profitable re-
minder to the friends Of peace of the
inutilty of treaties which are contrary
to the desires and intentions of the
makers Of them or which are not backed
n by overwhelming public sentiment.
Few nations are likely 20 keep treaties
10 their own hurt or TO the baking and
embarrassment Of their action when cp-
portunities for ACKNOWLEDGEMENT arise.
That realization shows the vanity of the
notion that universal and perpetual
peace could he secured merely by put
ting promises 10 that effect on parch-
mcnt ard signing and sealing them,
More than that is needed-namely, the
spirit and purpose of peace in the minds
Of the nations. and that is to he secured
through education Of the people in the
ways of peace and the enlighteung of
their minds in respect 10 its advantages,
rather than through the making Of
treaties and the signing of conventions.

Harm In Too Much Exercise.

Harm In Too Much Exercise.
DR.. Lawrason Brown and DR.. F. H.
Heise of Saranac Lake, in an article
on Properly Regulated Rest and Ex-
ercise in Pulmonary tuberculosis" in
the June number of the Journal of the
Outdoor Life, holds that the action
of the poisonous germs of this disease
on the body is very similar to that of
overexercise. The poisonous irrita-
tons caused by the germs gives the
organs and tissues of the body a dou-
BILE load to carry. Drs. Brown and
Heise emphasize the Importance of
rest in the treatments of tuberculosis,
but also insist that properly regulat-
ed exercise is very. necessary. They
state their conclusions thus: ITO
sum up, exercise when properly regu-
lated and systematically graded is an
important factor in the treatment of
pulmonary tuberculosis. Through 1t
the patient is in many cases returned
to home and family with lessened
chances of future relapse. At the
same time part of his earning p
city Is restored and he is consequent
ly financially less dependent upon
others, relieving him Of much worry,
expense and hardship"

It is told that after Professor Az
toun had made proposals of marriage
to Miss Emily Jane Wilson, daughter
of Christopher North, he was, as a
matter of course, referred to her
father. AS the professor was uncom-
monty difadent, he said to her:
Emily, my dear, you must speak to
him for me. I could not summon
courage to speak to the professor on
this subject"
Papa is in the library" said the
lady.
Then you had better go to him"
said the professor, land I will wait
here"
There being apparently no help for
1t, the lady proceeded to the library,
"Papa's answe is pinned to the
back Of my Dress" said Miss Wilson,
as she re-entered the room.
Turning around, the delighted sutton
read these words:

HEART RIGHT.
When He Quit Coffee,

Life Insurance Companies will not
insure a man suffering from heart
trouble.
The reason is obvious.
This is a serious matter to the hus.
band or father who is solicitous for
the future Of his dear ones. Often
the heart trouble is caused by an I'm.
expected thing and can be corrected II
taken in time and properly treated. A
man in Colorado writes:
II was a great coffee drinker for
many years, and was not aware of the
injurious effects of the habit till l
became a practical invalid, suffering
from heart trouble, indigestion and
nervousness to an extent that made
me wretchedly miserable myself and
a nuisance to those who witnessed my
sufferings.
II continued to drink coffee, how
ever, not %suspecting that it was the
Of my ill-health, till on applying
for life insurance I was rejected on &C.
count Of the trouble with my heart.
Then I became alarmed. I found that
leaving off coffee helped me quickly, so
l quit it altogether and having been
attracted by the advertisements of
Postum I began it's use.
"The change in my condition was re-
markable. All my ailments vanished.
My digestion was completely restored,
my nervousness disappeared, and,
most important of all, my heart stead
led down and became normal, and on a
second examination I was accepted by
the Life Insurance Co. Quitting coffee
and using Postum worked the change"

Playing Blind.

This is a funny little stunt enjoyed
alike by old and young. If one has
never tried it is very amusing to
find anything with your eyes shut or
to judge distances.
First place a piece of paper on the
floor before you, shut your eyes, walk
backward two steps; then try to walk
on the paper and pick it us. Then
stick a pin in the wall about four feet
up and try to pick it off blindfolded.
Stand about five or six feet away from
a table; shut your eyes; then try to
walk up to it without knocking
against it.-Woman's World.
