A high Japanese military officer re-
my acquaintance that the future do
minion over the seas and lands of
the Pacific lay with Japan, because
China was asleep and America was
falling asleep. For fourteen months
America has played an ignoble part
among the nations. We have tamely
submitted to seeing the weak we had
covenanted to protect wronged. We
have seen our own men, women and
children murdered on the high seas
without action on our part.
Yet these fourteen months have
made evident the lamentable fact
that force is more dominant now than
ever before; that the most powerful
OF military nations is utterly brutal
and ruthless in it's disregard of inter.
national morality.
Inasmuch as we, nation, have
done nothing for national defense dur
ing the last thirteen months, the
time when during all our history it
was most necessary to prepare for
self defense, 1t is well that private
individuals should have tried to pro.
vide some kind of substitute for gov
ernmental action.

NAVAL, EFFICIENCY

The ticklsh situation that has de.
veloped between this country and
Germany is causing each day a close
scrutiny OF the question OF naval pow
er.
The opposition to an increase Of
the navy would be greatly diminish.
ed, could our people feel confident
that the money was economically
spent. II the tax payer Is convinced
that fixed proportion OF navy mon
ey Is always wasted, he gives up the
additional sum for a new batleship
with very IN grace.
1t is generally admitted that the
United States has too many navy
yards, that duplicate plants are being
maintained where smaller number
would do the work at far less cost.
Yet II a man should get up In Con-
gress next December and move to
abolish a yard in any given section,
that proposal would be bitterly fought
by every Congressman from that sec
ton. No one seems to look at the
thing from a business point of view
Apparently the objection to abol'
ishing useless navy yards Is not so
much the local demand for protection
against a foreign foe. It Is the feel,
ing on the part Of politicians that
the business community that depends
on the navy yards to sell supplies
would resent the closing up of q
yard Butchers and grocers would
have to go out of business II yard
were closed That would mean the
removal Of families. the local Con
gresham would be blamed and h
would lose votes.

THE CARE OF
OLD ANIMALS

An interesting news dispatch the
past week reports the death of Nan
cy Hanks, champion trotter from
1892 to 1894 She breathed her last
at the estate of J. T.. Madden of Lex
ington, Kentucky, who bought the
horse several years ago to pension
her.
There is so much thoughtlessness
in the care of aged animals, that it
is pleasant to see this notice of con-
sideration. Too many faithful beasts
OF everyday life are pushed ahead I'M
til they drop. No halo of the race
track follows their heads.
There are all extremes of sentiment
in this matter. Some people are so
sensitive that they will not take the
life of an aged horse or dog, even
where the animal has passed any en-.
joyment of existence.
They feel keenly the individuality
Of animals and putting them out OF
the way with chloroform seems al
most like taking the life Of child.
This over sensitiveness to animal life
Is rare.
The faithful horse who has drawn
a family's burdens for lifetime
should be something more than a
mere drudge. If he has been treated
with kindness, he makes known his
affection for his masters, and wei
comes their approach with the cheer
full neigh
lie has contributed his snare tc
the househmold labors, in return FOL
mcager wage of hay and grain. H'
has toiled through heat and cold ant
storm, and has got no satisfaction ou
Of life beyond the bare pleasure o
good digestion. 1t seems one OF tn,
anomalies Of existence that so mucl
can be given so willingly and faithful
ly for so small a return.
He ought to have something com
ing to him in his twilight by wa!
of rest, some free seasons in a gooc
grassy pasture where he can kick N
his heels and enjoy sleep and food
untroubled by heavy loads, chafin
harnesses, and the toll Of the road
] The pensioned horses should not in
clude merely famous racers and fan
lily pets.

THE VALUE OF
INVESTIGATIONS

There is pretty general agree.
ment that the 100000 spent by the
Industrial Relations Commission, in
its study of the labor problem, has
been wasted With nearly every mem
Der of the board presenting his own
individual report, Congress and the
country will be as wise as before but
no wiser.
There is a great tendency in the
state legislatures as well as In Con-
gress to sdestep big questions by
handing them over to investigating
commissions. When members don't
know how to vote or are afraid to
vote their convictions, 1t is a great
help to refer matters to a commission
for study. The confiding public are
made to feel that there is something
doing and the weak kneed member
has escaped responsibility.
TIL libraries are full of material for
study of problem like the labor
question. A legislator who does not
know his own mind can find endless
studies of such subjects by the bright
est people in the country, who know
quite as much about them as any poll
tically appointed committee would
ever learn.
Many legislators take little pains
to make themselves intelligent on
great public questions. They vote the
way the party whips tell them, and
spend their time getting plums for
constituents, attending to their own
private business, or enjoying sports
and social life.
The really conscientious legislator
will find a world of material awaiting
his attention of pending problems. 1t
will make his term of service a work.
ing one, but his life will be enriched
and his sympathies enlarged. While
technical subjects occasionally need
the service of special investigating
committees, proposals for such inves-
legations are all to be viewed with
suspicion. They are too often a
means of relieving Legislators from
tasks they should perform themselves.

THE ART OF
ADVERTISING

picking up an exchange today the
writer noted the advertisement OF
coal dealer. 1t had caption In Dig
black type as follows:
Mr.. Wiseman Says. The adver'
tisement went on to state That NO"
ia the time to buy coal cheap" THIS
was in small type.
This is an illustration of the com
mon error in emphasis. The puDnc
would not care to know what any my
thical Mr.. Wiseman" says. II 1t can
get its fuel cheaper at given time
II wants to know it and to be remind
cd of IL. The words Buy Coal cheap
and Now, are the only ones in that
advertisement that could influence
the public mind. Those should have
been set in the heavy type.
The advertisement writer should al
WAYS keep in mind appealing direct
to the motives that most influence the
buying public. These motives are
such as the following:
To reduce the cost of living.
To buy for low prices.
To get substantial goods that VIII
wear, to get the latest styles.
To get goods that are artistically
attractive.
And in food products, to get appe'
tizing sanitary and attractive goods
at low prices.
An advertisement that does not APP
peal to the above motives or some
thing equally forcible is defective. 1t
may be useful and help keep the ad-
vertiser before the public. But 1t
does not give the advertiser the fuil
benefit of the money he has paid for
the space.
To sum up the suggestions of these
lessons. the following may be oher'
ed as a series of notices for the ad-
vertising writer:
/. Use the reason why motive.
2. Don't crowd too much small type
in your space.
3. Give the public information
about your goods,
4. Use plain language as you would
talk to a customer over the counter.
5. Give definite facts about the
goods and state prices.
g. Make the advertising newsy by
telling about what has happened In
your store.
T. Emphasize the words and senten
ces that will appeal most keenly to
the public.
s. Address yourself directly to the
motives that lead people TO buy.

| know that for every dollar the state
gets the liquor business it costs the
taxpayers at least 500 to support the
courts and juries, hospitals and asyl-
ums, paupers and prisoners, poor
houses and penitentiaries. We boast
that New York is the greatest and
the richest state in the Union. It has
a population of more than 100000.
Its estimated wealth Is more than
100000 00.444 and its annual revenue
from the liquor traffic Is less than
$20,000,000. The people OF New
York spend every year for alcoholic
liquors more than 100000, 000-just
20 times as much as the state derives
from the revenue. Most OF the mon
ey spent for liquor comes from the
poor and If It were deposited in saw.

York every year directly or indirect

the nefarious traffic, more than $780,
! 900, 000-a sum that staggers the mind
and II this vast sum of money

be greater than that OF any other
people in any other time in all the
annals of the world. II the state OF
