There is hard ly 8 spot in the world that has not had a taste of Great Bi'itain,s inter ference and has been compelled to Say they liked it. And we are called upon to shed tears because Great Britain may get a taste of her own medicine and we are asked to avert such a "calamity.'
 I would like to add a little more in regard to the international ques- tions and law as observed by a neutral cl1lzen of a so-called "neutr2i' nation; in regard to the attempted starvation of non-combatanJ citizens Of the German allied countries; in re- gard to Englands employment of her Indian subjects and Japanese allies in a white mans war; Of England's be- .trayal of Belgium and France; but realize that The Graphic cannot spare the space for complete indictment Of Great Britain and her allies, and will close with the saying of The Douglas, Let dog eat dog, what does the lion care?"

COWARDLY FRANKS.

The posting of notices in section of the city populated by negroes warning the colored people to leave under penalty of death" might be regarded as a joke if some or the negroes were not frightened. No at- tention should be paid to the Wafa- ings. pcsted either by few rowoles Or some men with misguided sense of humor.

In connection herewith l wish to stare that the United States also is entitled to "a mite of this trade, and of Whlca Great Britain robbed us during the civil war and by shrewd diplomacy since, has succeeded in retaining.
 Here also is to be found the eXplan- ation of why Great Britain refuses to let us buy the informed German ships, which are so sorely needed to handle our foreign commerce. Great Britain is enacting the "dog in the manager policy. She cannot obtain these ships herself and refuses to let America have them. and we humbly subm1r, while our own beautiful Southland suffers through the depression Tn price of it's chief product-cotton.
 And now the croWning act o1 Rritains selfishness has just been an- nounced in the way of blockade of the German ports, and cotton, which the Germans can neither eat nor drink nor the people of our own South for that matter, has again Alt the toboggan slide.
 Mir. Chatterton contends that Great Britain is a better boss than Germany might prove to be. We have never yet fought Germany, but have twlce had to punish Great Britain for be- coming too dictatcrial, and unless Germany saves us the job, we are go- ing to be compelled to do it again:

by Josiah Wedgwood for the Russian
empress, Catherine H., in 1774 consists
Of 952 pieces, and on each piece is
painted different view. The body is
Of a pale birthstone color. and the
views are painted in a rich mulberry

to be used at the palace Of La Gre
nOuilliere (meaning marshy place full
Of frOgs), each piece also bears a
green frog within a shield on the rim.
The views represent British ruined
castles. abbeys, parks, bridges, towers.
etc. Several pieces are decorated with
views Of Hampstead, and there are
custard cups with views Of Richmond
and sauce boats with the scenery Of
Windsor park. In many cases the
views are the only pictorial records
left Of the old buildings. Altogether
there are 1882 views painted on the

Loaf Bread In EnaIand.

1t is perhaps worth recalling that
the art of baking loaves Of bread was
introduced into Europe quite late in
history. Flat cakes were baked even
IN the earliest times, but as late as the
beginning Of the nineteenth century
loaf bread was comparatively I'M
known in many parts Of the continent.
In 1872, for instance, when an Eng
lish captain ordered loaves to the value
Of 50 in Gothenburg the baker stipu-
lated for payment in advance on the
ground that be would never be able to
sell them in the city if they were left
on his hands.-London Spectator.

QUEER LEGAL FICTION.

It Makes Stcpncy, In London. tho
Parish of Every British Seaman.
Every sailor, from the admiral to the
newest Joined seaman, ON board British
WarShipS is regarded as belonging to
the parish of Stepncy. III London. IT
doesn't matter in the slightest where
the ship is, the sailors who man it al!
come from the same Darish-Steppey.
This queer legal fiction dates back
to the time Of Charles IL. In those
days every wOrkingman had to live In
the parish where he was born, and he
could not leave it without finding two
responsible sureues to vouch for his
honesty.
This, Of course, became rather puz-
Zltng in the case Of people born at sea,
for they had no parish. To get over
the difficulty the authorities stated that
all born at sea would be regarded as
being born in the parish Of Stepney,
though why they should choose that
parish and no other is lost in the dust
of official records.
TO this day the bishop Of Stepney is
godfather Of all children born at sea,
while all marriages solemniZcd Oh the
ocean are recorded as though they had
taken place in Stepney.-London an

How to Treat Rifle Wound.

In the case Of wound from a rife
bullet don't go probing for the bullet,
but remove from the surface Of the
wound all shreds Of clothing and other
matter which the bullet may have car
ried into the flesh. This must be re-
moved very thoroughly, and a steriiz-
ed knife or scissors should be used
freely to open the wound and get it
clean. When this is done treat the
wound with your iodine or bichloride
solution. Then dress it with gauze and
bandage.
In the case of wounds from small
shot the wound should be washed with
q solution Of alum, and then pieces Of
gauze or clean cloth wrung out Of hot
water should be applied every couple
of hours.-Outing.
