the world the disinterestedness of America in
its foreign relations and guaranteed that when
America said, ave shall be neutral, America
would keep her word in spirit and in5letter.
That was the best protection any nation could
afford her subjects abroad
Other incidents such as this of the seized
vessel will occur beore the war is over. In
every ease, judgment should be suspended until
the facts are known, with the presumption al
ways that no international offense has been
aimed at America, and the assurance that
Americas now friendly relations are to be
maintained

NO CAUSE FOR ALARM.

No cause for alarm to Americans is given in
the action of the British Mar-vessel which
stopped an American 0il-tank steamer. The
steamer was carrying what Great Britain has
construed as contraband Of war, and the steam
erss papers, according to dispatches, were am
biguous as to the buyer Of the cargo OF kero-
sene, Under the circumstances, as now known,
tile seizure Of the ship hardly constituted a
violation Of the spirit of neutrality.
Prompt explanations have been made by all
parties concerned and the Incidents passing of
without friction. 1t would be the same had
q German or an Austrian war-vessel stopped
the American ship under like circumstances.
Uncle Sam is not carrying a chip on his shout
der and the administration realizes that it
would be criminal folly to adopt a.swaggering,
dor,ttoach-ine attitude which would instantly
distoft an affair such as this into a grave in
terliational offense. The American nation now
holds the good will Of all the warning powers
and none Of hem viii Intentionally disturb the
present cordial feeling The surest way for the
United States to protect Its citizens and itssin-
terests is for the country TO maintain d digni-
fed, cool, erenstempered policy of neutrality,
When the war broke out IN Europe there
were thousands of American subjects IN the
various countries involved We're they i'll
treateds On the centraryyas there is abundant
evidence to testify the Americans caught in
these countries in tile midst Of the sternest mil
itafy preparations were treated with riistin-
guished courtesy. Opponents of the Wilson
administration had been asserting that this
country Mexican policy, had robbed American
citizens abroad of their natural protection The
European situation has not shown this to be
true. Intact, the very attitude Of splendid for
learance manifested toward Mexico proved to

a good many anonymous letters are being
written to the newspapers nowadays on the sub
ieet of the European war. Ordinarily such let.
tiers take one side or the other with vitupera-
tive burst of language that explains why the
writers prefer to be unknown Some OF the
letters are moderate and thoughtful enough to
deserve publication, but the Star Bulletin, in
common with every other reputable newspaper,
does not pay attention to anonymous letters
of any sort.

There seems little doubt that a war-vessel
of some sort was seen near Honolulu on Monday
evening. A resident of Honolulu whose word
is not to be doubted, writes to this paper as fol-
lows: s 1t is a fact that a large steamer, APP
.parently cruiser, was seen in the offing from
Waikiki Beach and later from the Diamond
Head road near the lighthouse on last Monday
evening between half past five and six, by a
party of five adults, including myself When
II saw the Hizen this morning off port / was
struck with the similarity of the two. We
watched the stranger until it was too dark to
see her longer An old-fashioned white steamer,
presumably the Thetis, was passing Diamond
Head outward bound at the time. =

 Dottie: Your use of sweet fern leaves for poison I was glad to know about, and will add that they are a cure for dysentery in its worst forms Steep the leaves, strain them when strong and take one third of a tum- bier every hour or@ two until relief comes. As this is the time of year when such disease are liable to at- tack a person, I think it nice to know of a remedy that has been tried and proven efficient

Now this worked very well for the friend as she did not arise until about nine, but with one who was obliged to get up at an early hour as did. found at noon my stomach was in no fit condition to take food I do think. however. people are apt to eat things which they know are injurious for them, and will not deny themselves of anything their palate may desire.
