 Tollio, March 7-"The relations be- tween the United States and Japan standing disturbing rumors at times to the contrary said Baron Ishii, the minister of foreign affairs, during an address last night, "but as far as l can judge they have never been bet ter or as good as they arc today" The minister was speaking at the an- nual dinner of the Americas Friends association an organization cOn posed of Japanese who are especially interested in maintaining the good relations between Japan and the United States. Viscount kentaro Kaneko, @ member of the Privy coun- cil, presided. and among those pres ent were Premier Count Okuma and George w. Guthrie, the American ambassador. Baron Ishii said:
 We all remember about a quarter of a century ago the creation of the cry the yellow peril I did not ur- derstand it then and i do not now, but it originated from certain pow CT in Europe whose real aim was to create discord to serve her own pur- poses of domination. to crush down the newly rising nation in the Far East. Happily for humanitys sake, the American people understood the motives behind this power. This European power today is now frankly and openly embarked on her ambi- tion of world conquest"
 We Have Troubles of Our Own.
 He continued: The result is that the relations between Japan and the United States are better than at any previous time because the power is too much occupied with her own troubles and cares. and the relations between the United States and Japan are now left to be regulated by them selves. Therefore we find when left without this source of intrigue that never has been a better more cor dial understanding between the two nations bordering the Pacific than at present. We have every reason to congratulate ourselves on the elim- ination of this source of trouble for power is and will be too busy for some time to interfere. With the continual growing, better understand ing of the motives of each country this relationship will grow year by year more ideal, more cordial as 1t justly ought to be-"

REPORT MANY CASES
 OF RHEUMATISM NOW
Says We Must Keep Feet Dry; Avoid Exposure and Eat
 Less Meat.

Stay off the damp ground avoid eX-
 posture, keep feet dry, eat less meat drink lots of water and above all take spoonful of salts occasionally to keep down uric acid.
 Rheumatism is caused by poisonous toxin, called uric acid. which is gene rated in the bowels and absorbed into the blood It is the function of the kidneys to filter this acid from the blood and cast it out in the urine. The pores of the skin are also a means of freeing the blood of this impurity. In damp and chilly, cold weather the skin pores are closed, thus forcing the kidneys to do double work, they be- come weak and sluggish and fail to eliminate this uric acid which keeps accommodating and Circula ting through the system, eventually settling in tho joints and muscles causing stiffness, soreness and pain called rheumatism
 At the first twinge of rheumatism get from any pharmacy about four ounces of lad Salts; put a tablespoon full in a glass of water and drink be- fore breakfast each morning for a week. This is said to eliminate uric acid by stimulating the kidneys to normal action thus ridding the blood Of these impurities.
 lad Salts is inexpensive, harmless and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with Iithia and is used with excellent results by thousands of folks who are subject to rheumatism.

luncheon which he gave yeserday at and foreign journalists. He referred to President Wilson's advocacy Of military expansion and said that 1t was forced upon the United States by the war in Europe. He added 'The ideal of peace and the principle of democracy so strongly upheld by President Jefferson and others are now being relegated to the back ground and the military expansion movement is being vigorously push ed forward by MT. Wilson. Why? Because the American interests are threatened. Germany and Austria are menacing the safety of American lives on the sea. and their subma- rines are threatening the coast of South Am erica. The Teutonic spirit of patriotism is being carried too far and the United States is suffering from this pestilence. All this has naturally forced the Americans to get ready for any emergency, hence a great military expansion movement has suddenly sprung up.''
 Team Work Hoped For.
 Count Okuma thought that Japan
 
 gether could do a great deal towards rescuing the world from the calam- ity now expressing it.
 , The premier made several refer ences to China where he believed the revolution was growing worse and threatened to become nation wide. He compared the situation in China with that in Mexico and expressed the opinion that the United States could understand the feelings of Japan. He added: 'Jf the great republic of the United States and the Japanese empire should cooperate in bring ing about peace in China we shall succeed Japan wishes to join Amer ica in this work of bringing back peace in the world and in restoring order and peace in China.'
 The prime minister feared that if the Chinese revolution became worse, China might be devided into two contesting factions. He estimated that there were now about 3,5O0 Ger man residents in China and thought that many were engaged in various forms of intrigue. The Japanese government was taking special meas ures against these Germans ard Japan's allies could rest assured that everything was being done to safe guard their interests.

LET THE MUSHROOM
 EATER BE CAREFUL
Wild and Dangerous GroWtbs
 Often Appear in Beds

Was shngtOn, D. C., April As the result of a serious case of mushroom poisoning in a mushroom growers family recently, the mushroom spe- cialists of the U. s. department of agri- culture have issued warning to cOm- mercial and other growers of mush- rooms to regard with suspicion any abnormal mushrooms which appear in their beds It seems that occasionally sporadic forms appear in mushroom beds, persist for, a day or two, and then disappear. These are generally manure-inha biting species and may be observed shortly after the beds have been cased. In the instance cited, however, these fungi appeared in con- siderable numbers at the time the ed ible Agaricus campestris should have been ready for the market, and the dealer supposed it was probably a new brown variety and tried it in his own family. As a result, five persons were rendered absolutely helpless and were saved after several hours only through assistance of a second phN- sician who had had experience with this type of poisoning.
 Cave the Wild Mushroom.
 In the opinion of the department, this case is peculiarly significant and demonstrate that the grower must be able to distinguish Agaricus campes- tris from any of the wild forms of mushrooms that may appear in the beds. Under the circumstances the department strongly urges every grower to make himself thoroughly familiar with the cultivated specie-.

only three paraded with the band, and
two of these quit on the first lap around
the field.
Boston has become so used to worlds
series games and TO winning worlds
championships that the Bostonian who
gets enthusiastic over such trihes is re-
garded as a hick. The Bostonese or
hick is rustic. In defence OF the
sophistication of the Goldfish city il was
shown that the person who persisted in
parading was slightly inebristed, and
that he would be ashamed of showing
this emotion in the morning, when the
town woult be dry.
Persons who rooted during the game
were looked upon with wei
amazement by their neighbors. The
Trolley Dodgers who had come 10 shout
encouragement to Robbie were appalled,
by the stiffness of the Bostonese. When
one of them, holder than his tribe,
shouted, ION, you Robbed" in the
ninth. a couple OF Boston policemen
drew near, and he subsidized.
The score is no indication as 10 the
comparative merits of the two ball
teams. Even Robbie's friends will sd-
nit that the Red Sox outclsssed the
Robins, from Cape Cod TO Borough
Hall. The freakish finish, while it

are limelight shy in many particulars.
Their playing indicated il. The Red
Sox went about their business as they
would play any ball game, while the
Robins, sixteen years out of any such
excitement, seemed overwhelmed with
the thought of playing for worlds
championship.
The one person on the Brooklyn
team who showed no signs OF trepids-

Then just as it seemed all over andT
the nervous ones began to shift toward
the exits the Boston machine collapsed
with a bump. Ernie Shore, the tall
Tar Heel Terror, who had been pitching
with absolute steadiness, began to get
wild. With the bases filled, Janvrin
iuegled an easy grounder from Mowrey
and a couple of runs came in.
The apathy disappeared. The few
Brooklyn rooters ceased to emulate the
clam of Long Island. They began to
shout encouragement and the neutral
spectators began for the first time to
take some interest. There seemed to
be reason TO believe that the always
popular melodrama, Tiled in the
Ninth" was about TO be staged with
all the Belasco trimmings.
Up to that time it was just a common
or garden variety Of ball game. The
worlds series glamour seemed to be
lacking. The teams were runnig 70
the form which the dope indicated. The
crowd was startlingly peaceful and
self-contained. After each inning the
Bostonese chanted "Tessie," but they
did it in a particularly orderly and
perfunctory fashion. 1t might have
been any old game in the back home
lot schedule as far as excitement went.
There were vacant seats in all of the
stands, too. An hour before the game

entrance in the near-melodrama in the
ninth inning. Jacob was overdue for
a clean swipc, and Shore seemed 10

passing him. Then Casey Stengel sent

shot one straight for Shore, who threw
to third, cutting off Daubert.

his mitt right there and he beaned
Cutshaw. Then Mowrey came up, while
a section OF the Boston roofing de-
partment began to beat upon tin cans.
Michael looked annoyed and shot one
straight at Janvrin. II should have
been an easy out, but Janvrin juggled
it and Stengel and Wheat scored.
At this juncture Ivan Ivory Olson,
who had a couple OF costly errors
chalked against him, made an attempt
to redeem himself. He slammed out

hero of worlds series, where the multi

Cutshaw this time who suffered a case
OF rattles. Not only did George tumble
but he became so ratified he lost the
ball entirely and no one was put out.
Duffy Lewis laid down a pretty bunt
on the first pitch, and though Jake

This loaded the bases, but II brought
up Shore. The Red Sox pitcher took
one ball, fast, high one on the inside.
The next was a curve right across the

missed two other swings at curves.
With two and nothing Harry Hooper

grounder hit the shortstop's shoe and
bounded into Janvrn's hands at sec

Big JEFF Pfeffer pitched the eighth

throw by Casey Stengel helped greatly
TO the run Of this inning. Hooper
wormed q pass out Of Pfeffer. Janvrin

The next was a wild one, ard Merkle

ROYAL Rooters' band subsidized into a
painful silence, and William Carrigan
called in Shore for a consultation. The
result was the diagnosing OF the case
of Shore as severe one of the rattles.

Sox, was sent in.

who could not get the ball TO Hoblitzeil
in time to land him, and Mowrey
scored. Il seemd certain then that the
big thrill was about to be shot over,
especially as Jake Daubert was the next
man up for Brooklyn, and, as we have
previously recorded, much overdue Tor
hit.
Yes. there was Jacobs chance to
build for himself a fame that would
endure while there was strap on the
b. R. T. to cling to.
If Jacob had been able to connect for
lust one of those swats which he ac-
uuired so casually in midseason every
clam in the shoals around Long Island
would have found a voice tonight to
shout his name. The oysters, too, in
the Long Island waters would be leav-
ing their beds and shouting, Jake
Daubert!"
But Jacob failed to connect. With
fame right there within reach of his
bat ne missed it by an inch or so. or
course. Scott. of the SoX, had lot to
do with crossing him just as he was
about to mount the pedestal. Mr.. Scott
speared Jacobs drive and a swish of
tie same paw tossed Daubert out at
first.
Whereupon the crowd rose and filed
TO the exits in a most casual and or
derly fashion. The leader of the Royal
hooters band conducted his potential
noisemakers into the field and tried to
start a parade, as was scheduled. But
