The Man of Straw
And Vacillation.

The President is charged with vacil-
lation on the one side and with stub
born stupidity on the other, man Of
straw set on hill over which blow
the sharp winds of public criticism
from all quarters Of the world.
But for man of straw, President
Wilson is singularIy well poised.
That he has proven vacillating be-
cause he has changed his point of view
within the past few months, would be
difficult to prove. 1t is not the presi-
dent who has changed. Conditions
have changed.
The president is looking today upon
an entirely different scene from that
he viewed six months ago. If he did
not see things in a different light, nc
would be mental and moral incom-
petent. Because President Wilson
did not wish 10 rush into war year
ago, or six months ago, and because
he believes in preparedness nod, does
not prove him vacillating; it proves
that common sense, which he has
never failed to display with re-
markable consistency.
Lee did not believe in secession.
But neither did Lee believe in inva-
sion. When his country was threat
ened, although he held a commission
in the United States army and al
though he declared to those closest TO
him that he recognized no necessity
for the existing state of affairs, and
wrote to his old friend and comman-
der General Scott that the separation
from the service cost him a great
struggle, yet he did not turn his back
upon the south.
Wilson may be too proud to listen
to jingoists who wish to start a war
each day over their morning coffee
or at the corner grocery store, and
yet not be too proud to uphold his
country's honor
Wilson does not desire war any
more than Lee desired war. He is q
man of peace. But Wilson is neither
a fool nor a knave, any more than
was the great Confederate Chieftan.
As Lee held his country above all
else, so does Wilson hold his coun-
try's honor high and sacred. Just as
Lee did not advocate secession, so
Wilson does not advocate an aggressive
war policy. But just as Lee was
forced by conditions into the arena
of war to fight against the brother
officers dear to him through hours
spent in camp and battlefield, and be-
came the greatest of all Confederate
leaders, so today Wilson, not chang
ing, but facing facts which have
changed, stands resolute, unwavering,
determined to uphold the honor of the
country he so ably represents.

What You Should Do

poisons that Turk around them.
For instance, there is scarcely a

Just what to do In a case Of accidental
poisoning. The symptoms OF poisons
and their antidotes should be learned
by everyone. Mineral acids. such as
acetic. hydrochloric nitric. and sui

and stomach. which is soon followed
by nausea, vomiting and purging. great

Antidotes for Aikalies.
Alkalies such as caustic, ammonia

A Good Cup of Tea.

1t ls generally believed that any one
can make tea. This Is far from the
case. Great care should be taken TO
have the teapot hot. Scald II out with
hot water before putting in the dry
tea. The water to pour on the leaves
should not be only boiling. but should be
freshly boiled. The big tea kettle which
stands on the stove all day and Is filled
at irregular Intervals does not furnish
the best water for the purpose. Get a
small enameled ware kettle holding
about a quart OF water. Pour the water
on the tea. which should not steep over
three minutes. Then you will have a
cup OF tea which Is not only very much
better In flavor. but Is much more
wholesome than that made In the ordi-
nary. careless fashion.
