inforced by that of Japan. Safe pass- age from the Mediterranean to the Indian ocean is well within the class of special interests in the east which Japan and England are bound jointly to protect.
 Not only. however, would Turkey be relatively incapable of aggressive action in aid of Germany and Aus tria, she would be exposed to at tack, which might be formidable, i'm. mediately from Greece and from the French Mediterranean fleet, and prob. ably from that of Italy also. On land, if Bulgaria should cast in her lot with Turkey, their territory would invite invasion from Greece on the south, from Servia on the west, and not unlikely from Rumania on the north. If Rumania merely maintain. ed neutrality, that would still bar all aid to Turkey and Bulgaria from Aus tria but the chances are all against Rumania remaining neutral. In any case, it is difficult to see what Fur key has to gain from entrance on the conflict, and she has very much to lose.--New York Times.

THE PRESS AGENTS WAR.

The present European war, unique in the number of nations involved and the enormous number of combat ants. in the employment of flying machines to drop bombs on towns and camps and spy upon the move ments of the enemy, and in the use of many death-dealing contrivances of recent invention, deserves also to be distinguished in history as "the first press agents war" Frederick the Great and Napoleon were as lit tie versed in ways to create senti- ncnt favorable to their cause in foreign countries as Hannibal and Caesar. In Austria, and until lately in Russia, the value of press manipu- lalion beyond the national boundar- ies has not been fully understood. Newspapers in those countries print only what the authorities permit or order them to print, or are suppress ed. But England, France and Ger many have long been aware of the
 alue of press agents, and their use of bureaus to disseminate reports their governments desire to have published especially in the United states, is d new feature in the con- duct of war.
 That these three nations should desire 10 have American favor is per frctly natural. No harm should come from this, as the good sense of the American people will compel the pre- servation of strict neutrality to the end. It is reported that Germany in- tends 10 establish new press bu- renu at The Hague, but it's channels of communication with the American people are already satisfactory, and if the censors would permit us to get more authentic news of the pro- aress of the war through them we would not complain. It is perfect ly natural that Germany should de- sire the approval of the American people. But they are competent to judge fairly for themselves from facts. As for the wars hired press

agents, they have worked vigorously, but, thus far, they have accomplish ed little.-Ex.
THE PUZZLE OF TURKEY.

There is Hull in the shower of ru- mors regarding the entrance of Fur key upon the European struggle. The Turkish ambassador at Washington, who met the first reports by cryptic outgivings as to the mobilization of a half million troops by his govern ment with another half million in the near future, now contents him. self with publishing a dispatch in directly announcing the maintenance of neutrality The 100000 men un- der German officers reported as ready to move on Egypt and Persia have not been further heard from Mean while an official statement is made that Bulgaria, without whose aid any action by Turkey would be extremely risky, will remain neutral.
 There Is no certainty as to what the Turkish government will dO It is still practically in the hands of the Young Turks Committee, who blindly rushed upon the conflict with the Bal kan Federation and barely escaped being driven out of Europe. Some of the leaders are still talking in q boastful and threatening tone, and the temptation to ally Turkey with so powerful combination as that of Germany and Austria against Rus
 and if the Dual Alliance should make furth- CT substantial advances in the west it might prove irresistible. But such action would be full of danger, not only to Turkey, but to Germany and Austria as well. Supposing that a satisfactory bargain could be made with Bulgaria, the area within which serious help could be given to Ger many and Austria would still be linn tied and remote. Egypt could be at tackled, but the only vital interest of Great Britain in Egypt is the SueZ Canal, which could very strongly be defended, in the first instance, by the French fleet in the Mediterranean and by the Greek fleet if necessary. The opening of hostilities by Turkey would almost surely bring Italy into the war, since she could not afford to expose her newly acquired terri tory in North Africa to her recent foe strengthened by alliance with Ger many and Austria. The other point of possible offensive operations by Turkey would be Persia, now largely controlled by Great Britain and Rus sia. The interests of these two coun- tries in that region are not such as to make even successful invasion by Turkey very important. except so far as the Red Sea route, beyond the Suez Canal, should be threatened. There again the naval force of Eng land could be effectively used, and it might, if the need justified, be re-

PROTECTION FOR "GENlUS."
Inventors of Perpetual Motion" Will
 Be Saved Patent Fees.

Inventors of Perpetual Motion" Will Bs Saved Patent Fees. Washlngton.-Owing to the growth fin numbers of inventive "geniuses" who declare that they have solved the perpetual motion problem the officials of the patent office have had to take steps to protect them.
 Any one can make an application for a patent, paying fee of $15. An ex- aminer investigates the claim and, if there is merit to it, calls for model. If there is no merit the patent is then rejected and the $15 goes into Uncle Sam's treasure chest. Nearly every one of these perpetual motion in- ventors is in financial straits. The loss of $15, according to the officials, is a severe blow to them financially. Hereafter the patent office will not permit any one to file patent for a perpetual motion machine unless the application is accompanied by model of the machine, the model being one that will perform. A circular to that effect Is being sent out
 Tt would keep two stenographers busy practically all of the time writ ing to would be inventors of perpetual motion machines" said Chief Clerk Woolard recently. "The circular saves time and saves money for the govern ment, meanwhile saving money for the poor fellows who believe they have solved this problem"
 There is at least one visitor 8 day to the patent office who has a perpet- ual motion machine.

MEAL OF 1000 HEAT
 UNITS FOR 10 CENTS
Reducing Cost of Living by
 Scientific Measures.

New York.-A scientific restaurant where one may obtain enough nutri- ton for 10 cents is to be opened here. It has been scientifically demonstrated that enough properly balanced food to keep an average man in good condition is not expensive.
 The food which 1t is proposed to contains enough calories (heat units) for an average person doing light work Professor Graham Lusk of the department of physiology at Cornell medical college has arranged the menu, based on the assumption that persons engaged in different kinds of labor re- quire different amounts of calories.
 A man who lies abed twenty-four hours requires only 1880 calories a day; a rider in six day bicycle race requires 10000 calories. A man abed for eight hours and in a chair fourteen hours and having moderate exercise for two hours requires 2,500 calories. The average farmer needs $500 ca- lories.
 The meal which will be served at this scientific restaurant will give ex- actly 1000 heat units, enough for a luncheon for man doing light work.
 Professor Lusk has arranged this menu, giving 1000 heat units for 10 cents:
 x ounces of beans. 1 ounce of pork. 21-3 ounces of butter. ounces of milk and 5 ounces of coffee. mixed.
 Three such meals mean 5000 heat units, and if one eats a heavier meal in the evening with this scientific luncheon of beans and pork he will obtain enough calories for anything less than hard physical labor.

OUR UNUSED GOLD.

On the first of this month there was in circulation in this country $3,367 ,3GS ,930 of all kinds of cur rency, besides ,467 in the Treasury. That is more than the country needs, as appears from the quietness of trade and the increase over last years circulation of some eleven millions of dollars. During this month there has been q large addition to this already excessive supply in the form of Clearing House certificates and emergency currency. No doubt some of this excess of cur rency is useful to relieve the dead lock of credit due to closing of the Exchanges and the inability of the
 United States to collect what is due it from abroad. Still the excessive supply of paper is regrettable as tending to the disuse of gold.
 1t would be good thinng to at tract gold into the banks as q basis of credit, but the policy fostered at Washington is to drive gold into hid
 ing. It is pity, because, despite our redundancy of gold, there is no excess of it where it ought to be. At the close of the last fiscal year the gold in the United States was $1,S7O, 76l 900, or about half the cur rency. About $1,113 ,201,O00 was in the treasury and in the financial in stitutlons. That leaves unaccounted for 757.56o 900 in pockets and tills. Each dollar of that gold does the
 Work of one dollar, and counts for no more than any dollar of paper
 If the holders of that gold would eX- change il for other forms of money which would serve them equally well, the banks would be able to break the deadlock of international ex- change which is clipping cents off all American dollars. When exchange is quoted above the par for dollars 1t is the same as saying that dollars are below the par for pounds or francs.
 In other words, dollars will buy less wheat than foreign money. The $757 ,560.00O of unbanked gold is as
 useless as water scattered on the sand, and yet there is san urgent call for it. The reserves of the banks are deficient, and the available cash
 balance of the treasury, after the de- duction of the demands upon the funds which it holds, is only ESQ., 237,5I5. The treasury's working bal ance is usually maintained at around fifty millions, so that even the treas ury is not overstrong for times like these. despite the $36S,21O,467 of money of all kinds which it held on the first of this month.
 It is a time when gold ought to be made to work, and when the treas ury policy is to overwOrk paper. When bank reserves arc deficient there ought not to be created an ex- cessive and delusive ease. To the intelligent it is an advertisement of the superiority of gold. For the in- experienced it has the same result as clipping their dollars, if the policy
 begun is continued along the same lines to the result which heretofore has followed such procedure.
