HADN'T MADE HIS HANDICAP
Advocate Was Still Ahead of Lieuten-
ant, Therefore the Duel Was
Out of the Question.

The late Alfred Love of Philadelphia
was Americas pioneer peace advo-
cate. Mr.. Love brilliantly advocated
universal peace in days when such
views caused men to be dubbed fools
and cranks.
He had many stories wherewith, at
Philadelphia dinner parties, he drove
home his peace propaganda. Thus, at
the Art club, ne once said:
'T wish we'd all take as sensible
and prudent a view of war as the
Nice advocate took of duelling.
.'An advocate and lieutenant quar-
relied one evening at the Cafe de la
Regence in Nice, and the lieutenant
sent his seconds to the advocate the
next morning. But the advocate
shook his head and said:
"a duel? No, no 1t wouldn't be

"The advocates refusal was con-

came the father of three children,

cate.

The silver gilt grouse appears as a

The grouse is obtainable also as a

AGAIN RAISING THE POPPY
Chinese BacksIide on Their Agree
ment Not to Boom Business
in Opium.

London.-The report of Sir j. N.
Jordan, British minister to China, on
the opium question indicates that
there has been some backsliding in
the effort to suppress the cultivation
of the poppy since the introduction of
the republican regime.
The report declares that since the
fall of the Manchus the policy of sup
preston agreed upon between China
and that there has been an immense
recrudenscence in the cultivation of
the drug.
In the provinces of Anhui, Human
and Shantung the campaign for the
suppression of the cultivation of the
plant his been successful, and in con-
sequence the importation Of Indian
opium into these provinces will cease.
But investigation in other parts of the
republic tells different tale. In many
of the provinces the authorities are
powerless to prevent cultivation. In
others there is collusion between the
powers and the growers, and IN still
others the officials are not inclined TO
deprive themselves of a rich source OF
revenue
The reports, however, are not 81
from official sources, many beirg sup
piled by missionaries and travellers.
SO exact figures are impossible. The
minister concludes with the statement
that great deal must be done before
the work of suppression can be con-
sidered as complete.

Why No Smoke in caesar2

Sweet lavender is now on the mar
ket and ON the side-table, and the
smell of it is clean, sweet, and de-
licious. But did you ever smoke it?
This business of the tobacco trust
worries the smoker who may have to
pay more for his pipeful. And then
comes the glad news that we are
growing tobacco-and even cigar Gov
erings-in England, in order to beat
Sumatra at her own game. And al
SO comes a Madrid professor, inquir-
ing what the ancient Romans smoked.
Fine old pipes have been dug up in
Spain from Roman settlements, but
they have no trace of tobacco or
opium. Yet they are adorned with
bas reliefs picturing the lavender
plant And in 1276-before tobacco
came to Europe Spanish writer
said that whoever smokes lavender
feels active, ardent, and vigorous. .
But why is it that smoking never
crept into Roman literature?
