fers no natural advantages. according
to Professor Metschinikof On the con-
trary. all the eldest sons and daughters

they are just normal
The professor was asked to account
for the alleged increase of criminality
in France. His answer was one word,
"depopulation." He afterward explained
himself thus:
The smaller families are the more
chance there is of the children turning
out idiots or criminals which is much
the same thing There is a much high
er proportion OF degeneration and inn
becility among first born children than
among others. The limitation Of fami-
lies. therefore. makes for the increase
of abnormal individuals. The best stock
is produced only at the fourth or fifth
birth

YOUNGER NATIVES
 MAKE OBJECTION

The Empire is in receipt of the fol lowing, signed by James Watson, sec retary of the Juneau Native Band":
 q am requested by the Juneau Ma tive Band, of which 1 am secretary, to ask for a denial of the statements in The Empire of last Saturday, while memorial exercises were held in this village during last week.
 Tt is not true as stated that the Tsimpseans and the Hydas, or any other tribes conferred savage degrees or that initiates were bled on hands, tatooed or potlaches conducted.
 Although the younger generation of natives do not participate in those ceremonies, we protest against these exaggeraions and misrepresentations as outrageous"
 The story printed by The Empire was well authenticated before 1t went into type. The younger natives were in no way mentioned as being implicated in or as countenancing these rites, and their protest should be directed to and against those old CT natives who did practice the cere. monies as detailed in The Empires article,

CHILLY MR.. WILSON, AND
HIS HANDSHAkE

In that magazine called the Literary Digest one
may good photograph of the esteemed Mr..
Woodrow Wilson and his celebrated handshake.
Observers of social phenomena have stated that
the character and method Of man may always
be determined by the manner in which he shakes
hands with his fellow human beings. And in scan.
ming the picture mentioned one is forced to the
conclusion that the character of the President elect
is non-committal jealous of his own, reserved bend
ing only so much to custom as shall insure him
escape from criticism, and yet involve no expense
Of energy or pledge. 1t is the handshake Of the in
teligent selfish man, of the self esteeming man of
the conservative man-that man who conserves
himself, whatever else may happen.
Notice that he gives only his fingers to the per-
son clasping hands with MIN. Observe the care
and skill with which he reserves the express
sion of the palm Note his getting all possible of
the hand he shakes There is your man who
goes far was said Of Lord Beaconsfeld, in his
youth 1t is the handshake of the man who gets
much, and gives as little possible.
Arguing from that method of greeting, Presi
dent Wilson-for he will be in a very few brief
months-will hold tight rein on his advisers He
will absorb, but will exude nothing. He will get
their whole hand, and VIII show them only the
edges OF his own. He will fix a steady eye on
whatever may seem desirable to him, and will
at no time so spend himself for the general
cause as to leave himself less than perfectly
equipped for the fray when it may come If a ra
vening reform of the tariff at this time shall re-
dound to the credit of President Wilson, then there
Will be that sort of tariff tinkering. If he shall
decide that his own best interests demand the ia
rih be left alone, then 1t will be left alone And
there are plenty of people who will close their
eyes to the handshake, and give him credit for the
result. If he shall decide that Mexico ought to be
disciplined then there will be the tread of march.
ing feet all the way from the Rio Grande TO the
lsthmus; and if he shall decide that the comfy of
nations-and his interests-demand a contin-
uance of the policy of persecution of American cit
liens by Latin American revolutionsts-then the
present status will be continued.
And in every step of his administration you
may expect the man with such handshake to
look out for Number One, and look out first The
system has proved good one By it he has risen
from tutor to a presidency. BY it he has ex
changed defeat as head of a university for the gu
sity is located By it he has driven his campaign
through between the old and the new wings of
Democracy, promising nothing to either of them,
and taking all of the strength of both-and SO has
of the United States. 1t is a good handshake; and
it marks the man who knows how to take care of
himself .-Goodwin's Weekly.

GOOD COUNSEL

Little children, always be
Kind to everything you see
Do not kick the tables legs,
Don't beat unoffending eggs.
Do not mischieviously try
To poke things in needles eye;
Nor guilty be of such a fault
As to pinch the table salt.
DO not pull a teapots nose.
Don't ask bread what time 1t rose.
Little pitchers ears don't tweak,
Nor smack the apples rosy cheek.
But remember II Is right
To all things to be polite;
Let the hay scales have their way,
Wish the calendar good day.
Kiss the clock upon its face
Return the arm chairs fond en-
brace.
Greet the sieve in merry strain,
Ask the window how's its pane.

To your dumb inani-mates,
Toward your playmates then you'll
