His Cruel Treatment.

Some time since pretty young wife brought suit against her husband for divorce on the ground of cruelty, and when the case was called the fair petitioner was put on the witness stand.
 You say on your petition. madam" :" interrupted the judge at one interval that your husband treated you with great cruelty?"
 Yes sir" was the soft and meek rejoinder of the witness. he was cruel to me very often"
 Tn what particular way?" asked the judge. "I want to hear some spe- cific cases"
 Tn many ways" answered the pe- titioner One of the worst things he used to do was to say things 10 me on the telephone. and then hang up the receiver before could answer back"

Suits for little boys under six, like those for little girls, are made of wash fabrics for both summer and winter Heavy linens and cottons in strong weaves and in fast eolors that stand strenuous wear and much tubbing, are used in the new suits for daily wear which have just been brought out.
 When the little gentleman is dressed for grand occasion he wears velvet and looks princely in it. The simple tub suits for every day make it pos sible to keep him refreshingly clean in spite of the fact that the small chap is usually obivious to dirt and has faculty for gathering it.
 Two of the new models for little boys suits are shown here They leave nothing to be desired in excel lenee of design. style or thoroughly practical wearing qualities.
 At the right a suit of linen rep is pictured with collar and belt in plain brown. Shocking across the front of the blouse gives it the requisite full ness Straps of the white linen are stitched to the blouse and support a belt of the brown linen fastening with three bone buttons at the front. The collar is a small sailor pattern in brown linen but the cuffs are made of the same linen as the suit
 At the left a suit in the same color combination is shown finished with black buttons, and black silk tie The belt is posed lower on the figure than in the other model and is sup ported by narrow straps of the brown linen sewed on at each side A pocket with flap finished with two buttons is smart and practical item in the de- tail of the blouse.

Concerning Women on JurIes.

Do women have to sit on iuries if they yote?" Dr. Anna Howard Shaw. president of the National American Woman Suffrage association. was re- gently asked.
 Not necessarily" said Doctor Shaw; but l have seen a lot of ju- ries which needed to have someone sit on them, and I have known wom- en who have had to stand up at most difficult and disagreeable employments who would be glad to sit on juries and receive about double the price they get by standing And these men and women who prey upon the virtue of girlhood and boyhood would rather face Satan himself than a jury of mothers Yes. We need women on some juries."

Reforesting Chosen.

m EFORESTATION of denuded lands
IN is problem which most countries
are seeking to solve, and one of the
Japanese reforms in Chosen has to do
with the planting of trees. Arbor day
has become fixed as an institution in
the Land of the Rising Sun. In the re-
port on reforms and progress in Chosen
stimulating in the people an interest
in or love of afforestation. the govern
ment general, selecting the anniver-
sary of the demise of the first Emperor
of Japan as Arbor day, caused since
the annexation a universal plantation
to be carried out on that day, which is
April 3.
Tne first Arbor day was held under
the auspices of the governor general
in the government grounds on the
slopes of Nansan, while the civil gov
ernor conducted plantations on
mountain in keijo on the second and
third Arbor days. Arbor day arouses
much interest in the people in general,
especially in the school children

a model for afforestation and to eX-
pertinent on the raising of certain
kinds of trees adapta BILE to the physi-
cal conditions of that land, afforesta-

has been carried on since the annexa-
ton of Korea. There are also afforesta-
ton enterprises by the local govern
ments, and the maintenance of seeding
stations. There is reported also an In
crease in afforestation undertakings by

STATUE OF PHILIP " AT MADRID.

importations from the United States or
from the Argentine Republic.
Great Britain and France have had the
major share of the trade with Spain, and
while there is bound to be some Interrupt
ton of this trade it is very far from
amounting to complete paralysis. Much
of it is still normal
Germany and Belgium persent differ
ent situation. Belgium, before her indus
trial life was annihiated by the German
invasion of her neutrality, did good
business with Spain. The imports of Bel
gian products amounted to $6.000,000.
The exports were greater by nearly 3d.
100000, so that there was a trade ap-
proximating s15,00O,000.
Belgium was one of the buyers of Bill
bao ore for her iron and steel industries.
Substantially all of the trade of Belgium
with Spain is now destroyed.
Spain's trade with Germany ranged
from $35 100000 to S3S,000,000. The
proportion was substantially two to one
in favor of Germany. Consequently, that
country during the war loses the sale of
nearly $25,O00,o0O to Spain. Some of the
commodities heretofore sold by Germany
to Spain ought now to be sold by the
United States.

can manufacturers in selling office ap-
pliances, typewriters, adding machines,

of their own country.
The trade of Spain in the neutral
markets of South America consists very
largely of what is known as Spanish
specialties. The consumers are mostly
Spaniards.
Besides cotton textiles. the leading
exports to South America are the excel
lent table wines which Spaniards all
over the world insist on having. olive
oils, groceries and numerous kinds OF
canned goods. Spanish hams also en-
ter into the trade.
Some of these specialties have been
supplied by England and France. and
it is possible that the uncertainties of
the source of supply from those coun-
tries may throw additional trade to the
Spanish houses, but the aggregate is
not likely to be large.
Spains biggest trade in South Amer
lea is with the Argentine Republic. be-
cause the Spanish population there is
by far larger than in any other coun-
try. In a single year 1900 Spaniards
left Barcelona for Buenos Aires.
The trade between Spain and the
Argentine Republic amounts to $19,-

On the west coast Chile IS the best
customer of Spain and buys from Spain
in normal years products to the value
of Sl.5o0.0o0. and sells Spain trifie in
excess of that amount. Nitrates are
among the purchases by Spain from
Chile.
The best opportunity for Spain grow
ing out of the interruption of European
commerce on account of the war Is IN
the expansion of her textile trade. and
especially cotton fabrics. The BARGE
Iona mills make the kind OF fabrics
that the Spanish population of Argen-
tina and other South American coun-
tries want, but heretofore there has
been little effort to expand this busi-
ness.
Yet many of the natives, and espe-
cially those of Spanish origin. are
suited with the same class OF goods.
Some of these heretofore have been
supplied by the German mills. espe-
cially the cheaper textiles Some. too
have been supplied by Manchester.

neither France nor England is in a posi-

Barcelona, which Is the largest city in
Spain, now occupies an unusually good
strategic position for increasing Spanish
trade. The Suez canal is the ocean path
way to the east. The Panama canal

lished lines of traffic to the east coast
