FALSE SECURITY.

Nations are like individuals-they
often imagine themselves immune
from danger right at the time when
they are in the greatest jeopardy. 1t
is so with the United States today.
There is lull in the German situa-
tiSn, Japan has had nothing to say
for a few weeks, and Mexico appears
to be taking siesta Hence, with
out looking beneath the surface, we
jump to the conclusion that "every-
thing is fine and the dove is flirting
with the American eagle" But just
before every disastrous storm there is
a hull, with scarcely a ripple on the
water, with not leaf stirring. We
appear to be indifferently sleeping in
such a lull today, giving no heed to
the tempest that may be roaring to-
morrow. And in the end we will pay
the price of our folly.

MAN WHO CARRIED THE WcRE
POPULAR WITH SOLDIERS.

That Visitor Was Strictly
Al; Right.

Il was pretty close to taps when
small car pu:rcd up to the little bc:Gcr
station on the Rio GTalde, satisfied the
sentry and came inside the earthworks
fortiiication. Its driver, n tall, ruddy-
checked young man, who looked as
though he might be fresh out Of col
lcge, brought the mail-he'd succeeded
in crossing swollen creek in his car
when the Mexican mail man didn't
care to try it. and he brought also n
carload OF Bibles.
The soldiers in the border station
called him "the Bible guy" and the
opinion was expressed more than once
that 'the Bible guy was all right"
There are a number of him on the
Mexican border. They are representa-
tivcs of the American Bible society,
and their business is giving away
Bibles and Testaments to the soldiers
who are doing border patrol duty. This
particular one had come east from Ell
Paso, a matter OF 45O miles, and did
not expect to stop until he reached the
Gulf. He found considerable demand
for his little olive-drab-bound Testa.
ments and Bibles, as well as real
friendliness for himself.
He was n modest young man, but he
admitted that good many interesting
things happened to a fellow who car.

times one miscalculated or found the

Shay Didn't Like Him.

"Many years ago in a house in Ash
ley Gardens" writes G. Bernard Shaw
in the New Witness, II was walking
along corridor with other guests at
musical evening when saw coming
toward me man who produced an ex-
traordinarily disagrceable impression
on me, a tall young man in evening
dress, with blond beard and, us it
seemed to me, hateful expression.
HE was coming straight. at me. I
moved aside to avoid him, and he
moved too, apparently to get into my
way again. An impulse of rage at this
insult was check:1 just in time by the
discovery shat i1s,ead OF walking along
n corridor I was crossing a square
landing and that the detestable ap-
partition who had chilled my very soul
with his abominable aspect was re-

Miners Nystagmus.

Among the occupational diseases
which have been the object of slight
attention in this country may be in
cluded miners nystasnus. No thor
ough investigation has been made to
disclose it, SO that, though it is known
to exist, no definite information is
available as to the extent to which the
industry is affecred by it.
A bulletin has been issued, however,
by the United States bureau of mines
concerning European experience with
this disease, particularly that Of Ger
many and Great Britain, where it is
SO common as to be recognized as
among the occupational diseases for
which compensation Is paid.
Two views, it appears, are advanced
as to the cause of miners nystagmus.
"One attributes it to eye strain due
to working in badly-lighted space
with black Ight-absorbing surface; the
other to strain of the extrinsic mus
cles OF the eye, especially of the ele-
vator muscles, due to the position of
the miner when at work at the coal
face or when examining the roof Of
the workings to detect gas or threat
ening falls"

White Eskimos.

Vilhjalmur Stefansson is having a
difficult time with his 'blond Eski-
mos" and by this time doubtless
wishes that they were more brunette
and ordinary. They hold up his men
and rob them of everything removable,
and utterly decline to consider the ex-
plorers superior race. Yet when
they are visited by an epidemic of in
fluenza they attribute their misfor-
tunes to the witchcraft Of the
strangers
Hitherto newly discovered peoples
have been greatly impressed by the
white skins Of the discoverers. The civ
ilized races of Peru and Mexico re-
spected the complexion of the Span
iards as much as they feared their
firearms. A pallid physiognomy is one
OF the greatest assets of the white man
who penetratcs to regions where white
skins are unknown.
