Law of 0cod Faith.

! see no exception to tho respect that is paid among nations to the law of good faith. If there are cases in this enlightened period when 1t is vio- lated. there are none when 1t is de cried. It is the philosophy of politics. the religion of governments. It is ob- served by barbarians-A whiff of to- bacco smoke. or a string of beads. gives not merely binding force, but sanctity to treaties. Even in Algiers . truce may be bought for money; but, when ratified, even Algiers is too wise or too just. to disown and annul its obligation.

MAKE BUSINESS OF EATING
Professionals Assist Diners Who Ars Compelled by Etiquette to Leave
 Clean Plates.

One of tho most striking customs of the past that are preserved by the Indians of today is found among the tribes on the Devils Lake reservation in North Dakota. According to the re- port of an officer of the Indian bureau the Devils Lake Sioux have from time immemorial adhered to a curious custom in regard to tho treatment of a guest According to their etiquette 1t is the bounden duty of the host to supply his guest with all the food he may desire. and as . rule the ap- portionment set before the visiting h. dian Is much in excess of the capacity of a single man. But by the same custom the guest is obliged to eat all grossly insults his entertainer. It was found that this practice would work hardship, but instead of dis pensing with the custom the Indian method of reasoning was applied, and what is known as the professional eater was brought to the front.
 While the guest is supposed to eat all that Is placed before him, 1t serves the same purpose if his neighbor as. sists in devouring the bountiful re- past, the main object being to have the plate clean when the meal is f1n- ished. It is not always practicable to depend upon neighbor at table to as. sist in getting away with large din. ner. and in order to insure the final consumption of the allotted portion, visiting Indians call upon these pro- fesional eaters, whose duty 1t is to sit beside them throughout meal anI eat what the guest leaves The pro fesional eaters are never looked upon in the light of guests, but more as travelling companions with particular duty tc perform. These eaters receive from one dollar to two and even three dollars for each meal where they as sist It is said that one of these pro fessional eaters has been known te dispose of seventeen pounds of beef at sitting.

NEW DISCOVERY IN SURGE.
Proof That Bone May Be Grafted In the Body Without Connection
 With Living Tissue.

It has hitherto been a cardinal prin- ciple of surgery that bone can be grafted in the body only when it is closely connected at some one point at least with living bone producing tissue. But experiments made by Dr. Clarence A. McWilliams in the surgi cal research laboratory of Columbia university, New York, prove that this| Is not the case.
 In an article in the Journal of the| American Medical association illus. trated with X-ray photographs he| shows grafts of bones made upon sev. eral dogs, in which bone has not only lived but grown after being trans planted to soft parts. Their life de bends upon a sufficient blood supply !, for practically 100 per cent. are sue. cessful when the periosteum, or mem brane covering the bone, is on the graft, and AS per cent. of his grafte have been successful without perios. teum. He also proves that periosteum alone. without bone, will when trans
 planted into soft parts, produce new bone in a certain proportion of cases.

DAYS DEVELOP MENTS IN EUROPEAN WAR

The battle in West Flanders and for miles to the south in French ter ritory continues with unabated fury. There apparently is little change in the general situation, but each day of the fighting has meant a rearrange- ment of forces at certain places, which, in the end, must be of vast importance when the opposing armies get to grips in the final struggle. The advantage is claimed by both the Ger mans and the allies and it is possible both believe they have made gains at the points where gains are certain to count in the end. Meanwhile there unquestionaDly has been great loss in killed, wounded and prisoners.
 The situation in the East is some what uncertain, owing to conflicting reports. From Petrograd it is stated the Austrians continue their evacua- tion of positions to the southeast of Lemberg, in Galicia and in Bukowina. With respect to the latter territory it is said that with the exception of a garrison of reservists no Austrian troops are left.
 A Berlin dispatch, by way of Lon don, says official reports from Vienna announce the evacuation of the great CT portion of Bukowina by the Rus sians, who are being pursued by the Austrians. Petrograd official reports also claim marked progress in East Prussia, where the Germans are said to have been driven back.
 The loss of the cruiser Emden and the bottling up of the Koenigsberg have rejoiced the British public. The Emden, active to the last, cut the ca ble leading to the Cocos Island, Brit ish possession, in the Indian ocean. There the Austrian cruiser Sydney caught her, set her afire and drove her on the shore. London reports the says most of the crew probably was Emden's losses were heavy, Tokio rescued.
 Advices from South Africa report the further rounding up of rebels, not far from Pretoria, where an addition la 120 have been killed or wounded.

THE ARKWAY.

"Dead Mems Tales," a three-reel Eclair drama, will be featured to- night at the Arkway. It is vigor- ous story of the west, wherein miner commits one of the most dastardly crimes that could be written into history-the murdering and robbing of man who had saved his life, and even divided his own fortune with him. But in the end the miner pays, and how his guilt is made clear makes one of the unique and alto gether thrilling incidents of the play. The settings have been chosen for the purpose of giving the spectator viv- i'd, true impression of the great sand wastes, burned with the hot sun which men have to face in order to locate natures store-house of rich metal. Getting into these great wastes alone and without water means death. And this is the method used by the un- grateful fellow who kills his best friend for greed

Drastic Justice.

Mexican methods with prisoners of war-the take no prisoners" order recall the short and sharp Justice meted out to the communists in the Paris of the '70s. Sir William Butler in An Autobiography" tells of a visit to the prison of La RoQuette: We were shown into a small courtyard by a young naval lieutenant, who coolly explained to us the processes of the trial and execution of the communists. We strip their right shoulders,' he said. If the skin of the neck and shoulder shows the dark mark pro- duced by the kick of the chassepot rife the court pronounces the single word "classe;" if there Is no mark of discoloration on the shoulder the pres ident says "passe" and the man is re- leased. Those to whom "classe" ia said are shot. One hundred and fifty were shot at daybreak this morning In the courtyard

BEGGING FOB OUR GOODS

From Argentina comes express invitation for Yankee trade which is less than rebuke to for having already seized the South American opportunity opened by the war. There has been of late disposition to exaggerate the difficulties in the way such commerce extension Exporters and vessel owners have hesated to risk time and money And response to this unAmerican timidty comes an official paper from the Argentine government given out by Ambassador Neon at Washington as follows:
 American manufacturers can occupy the places left vacant by European industry in all branches that have been served by it. The present moment offers to American manufacturers very apprecabe advantages In order to get these advantages they take the initiative themselves, sending at least small cargoes and agents These boats would return with products"
 This is specific than the invitation re gently extended by the Russian ambassador welcoming American enterprise in the vast rapidly developing field of Russian trade We are already responding to that invitation. shipping goods via the Pacific and the Transsiberian Railway and even rskng ship ments by way of western Europe It would be incredible folly not to take immediate advantage of this al turing South American appeal.
