Tn Defense of Palm Reading.

IN DtIenhe rain Reading.
COUNCIL BLUFFS. July Ito the
Editor OF The Bee: / would like to reply
TO what Horace p. Holmes. NJ. D.. says
In todays Bee regarding his so-callod
demonstration in palmistry.
In the first place, he claims to have
become so impressed by the reading of a
noted palmlst that he determined to mas
ter the art. But because he failed to
learn he winds up by saying there is
nothing to Il.
Now. to illustrate the absuriity of a
claim he makes. let me tell you a little
story On July Mr.. Brown with an open
letter in his hand comes into the pres
ence of his wife and daughters and
makes this statement: Listen here,
this letter says that Brother Tom and
his wife and family will be here this
afternoon on the 4;2O train. and will
stay over the Fourth with us."
Now don't you think that his wife and
daughters flew about pretty lively pre-
pairing for their company. till one OF
them happened to see the letter. which
really read as follows:
BLANKVILLE, July 2.-Dear Brother:
II John Smith happens 20 pay me the $50
he owes me, which l don't think he can,
and he woundn't IL he could, and n tho

Scolding the Newspapers.

Mr. Bryan is still indulgng in his favorite
amusement OF scolding the newspapers, taking
the comment on the present war situation as
pretext. He comedies the right of individua
to hold opinions, but he berates the newspaper
that expresses one. In the present crisis n
newspaper cannot remain silent without being
recreant II owes to itself the expression OF
definite views for 1t is the most efficient agency
for the formulation and reflection of public
opinion. None OF the American newspapers are
clamoring for war. but through the expressions
OF all runs a note that Is clear and distinct in
support of the position taken by the president.
and which Mr.. Bryan seized as an excuse for
abandoning HIS place in the presidents councils
Mr.. Bryan's present utterances presuppose a
condition that does not exist. He would appear
in a much better light II he took little broader
view OF the situation and did not SO insistently
demand conformity to his own opinions.

Insist. He's Henpecked.

VALLEY, Neb.. July Ito the Editor
OF The Bee Here's dollars TO dough-
nuts he's henpecked. and out Of the ~
cents week she allows him. he bugs
tobacco and has pipe dreams. And in
these pipe dreams. the Internal mascu-
line comes to the fore-and he dreams
that he Is king on his domestic
throne, that his wife is a meek serv ant
TO do his bidding; that the best of every
thing is laid on his plate and through
the thick clouds of tobacco smoke 90
cents worth Of them he sees troops OF
little children sewing on his buttons and
mending his socks; and then, when his
pipe is empty. he gets up and washes
the dishes and does the chores and then
sits down again to darn his own socks
and signs for-for-well. perhaps for
more tobacco.
So don't let's jump on him. but rather
let someone ask her to increase his al

Questions About the war.


OMAHA, July Ito the Editor of The
Bee Please tell me:
l. What is the Ashburton treaty with
the United States and England? Why
was II made?
1SOS, and why?
3. Why does England put an embargo
on foodstuffs to Germany
4. Can the United States send mer-
chandise to Germany? A READER.
1. The Ashburton treaty was negoti-
ated between the United States and Great
Britain by Daniel Webster and Lord Ash
burton at Washington In 1Sl2 il al
justed the boundary between the United
States and northeast Canada, the United
States securing about seven-twelfths Of
tho territory in dispute
2. The right OF search was one Of the
causes of the war of 1872 with Great
Britain, but was not wholly rcmedied
by the treaty of Client. which ended that
war. In the succeeding years up TO 1860
both the United States and Great Brit
ain exercised the right OF search for the
purpose of suppressing traffic in Afri-
can slaves.
Ensland's embargo (in the nature
of blockadeJ on foodstuffs to Germany
Is In pursuance of a policy Of economic
pressure" as a factor In war. The
avowed object Ia TO force Germany To-
rely wholly on its own productive re-
sources to sustain it's people throughout
the war.
4. Goods may be shipped from the
United States to Germany or any other
warning country. at shippers risk.
