Annapolis. Md, June 2s.-America
Is demonstrating to the world that a
democracy of hundred million per-

unity of spirit, Secretary Daniels de-
clared today in a commencement ad-
Naval Academy third year class whose
graduation was advanced year to
provide officers for fighting ships.
'Those who prophesied that Amer

this war have been discredited." said
the secretary. 1.-The only divided
councils have been as to the best
method to be employed.
"Our traditional policy has been
against voluntary military service that
when conditions demanded the select
ed draft was written into the law.
Congress authorized the issue Of
two billion of bonds for war prepare
tions. The croaking of few pessi-
mists was drowned by the multitude
of voices offering hardwon savings as
freely as surplus wealth.
Red Cross Campaign.
Upon the heels of this unprece-
dented investment, the Red Cross So
ciety launched a campaign to raise a
hundred million dollars. More was
given them had been asked.
Congress is now engaged In writ
ing taxing bill. There is no divis-
ion in congress except as to the sourc-
es of taxation. and the people will pay
without protest whatever it may cost
to carry this war to a successful con-
clusion.
I'm the navy and in the marine
corps the chief problem has been to
house and uniform and equip the
thousands who flocked to the stand
ard. The army is securing all the
men who can be trained.
Hate Only Autocracy.
I'VE do not hate the people we hre
to fight We hate only the autocracy
which harnesses them to the jugger-
naut. Our victory will not only make
the world safe for democracy; will
not only end the fiction of divine righ,
but will bring to the German people
hope for the day when they will nc
longer be the pawns of militarism."

Abandon Food Preiudices.

Don't be finicky. Be willing to try
new foods. Certain plentiful and nour-
ishing foods widely used and enjoyed
in one section are practically unknown
in other sections of the country. Learn
to know all the good things, not few
only.
People too easily get into food ruts;
insist on eating only the food they are
used to and refuse to give fair trial
to others. This causes undue demand
for certain staples, with resulting
scarcity or high prices when crops are
short. At the same time other valuable
foods may be relatively cheap and
available. A striking instance Of this
is failure fully to appreciate rice-a
valuable source of starch-when pota-
toes are scarce and high. Another ex-
ample is refusal in certain sections to
use anything but wheat as bread
stuff, when corn-a valuable. cereal
widely used elsewhere as breadstuff
is plentiful and relatively cheap

MARTYRS TO GIRDLES.
A Native Protest Against Feminine
Fashions In Japan,

A caustic Japanese critic, Saito Man.
has this to say in the Tokyo Advertiser
about women's fashions il Japan:
archaic costumes, especially those
universally worn by ladies, demand re.
form. The INDECENT world can be cloth
ed out of the materials wasted in gor-
geous kimono sleeves. Nothing is so
absurd as the long, heavy, pendulant
sleeves attached to girls holiday XII
mono. They serve no purpose, impede
locomotion and are a pitiful spectacle
The girdle is more cumbrous and ex-
pensive, especially those woven in one
piece of heaviest silk.
Formerly the latter were only worn
at weddings and state affairs; now ev.
cry geisha has one. Every wife must
have one to sport at the theater. In
price this maruobi varies from 80 to
1000 yen (S15 to 5000 and upward To
girdle it requires all the strength of
well built husband or father. l do not
know any japanese woman who ever
succeeded in putting on one herself.
1T is over three feet wide, folded into
half that width when worn, and its
length is three times the full height of
its wearer. In weight it is terrific,
thickly embroidered as it is with gold
en- threads. 1t is chiefest attraction in
the whole dress scheme of Japanese
womanhood. One might as well ask
woman to discard her hair as it. Every
well dressed japanese lady is martyr
to her girdles. Her entire waist is COW
cred with layers Of betting. From the
viewpoint of health the girdle (obD is
a most vile contrivance, as every doc

most Of Ariosto, Petrarch and Berai.
Justus Leipsius knew Tacitus by heart

for. Locke states that Pascal knew
the whole Of the Bible by heart. Lieb-

ly all the poetry Of vergil. word for
word. Saunderson knew by heart
Horace's odes, Cicero's Offices and a

REALISTIC STAGECRAFT.
The Electric Light Is Responsible For
Many Innovations.

"aiiJ utfiOVdSiOuSs
The introduction Of electric light was,
Of course, responsible for greater inno-
vations in the art of stage decoration
than any other one thing. 1t was now
possible to light up equally well any
portion Of the stage, and so the apron
was dispensed with and tine picture
frame proscenium introduced.
The cry for realism which Ibsens
dramas had aroused was now taken
up by the scene builders with enthusi-
astic vigor, and mature" was repro
duced in every material detail. 1--WE
must show life exactly as it is" be-
came their motto.
These changes naturally also had an
effect upon the actors themselves and
upon what they said. Formerly the
actors were continually conscious of
the presence Of the audience, and to a
considerable degree addressed it di-
rectly. Now they could interpret the
story on the stage, entirely ignoring,
apparently, the presence Of the audi
ence.
This change in the conception of the
play as whole, as being made up not
alone Of dialogue and recitation, but
also Of action and pictorial representa-
tion, has had very farreaching effect
on our present day conception of the
drama.-Review Of Reviews.

Luminous Eyes.

Cats among animals and owls among
birds, says w. II. Hudson in his book,
idle Days In Patagonia" are the most
highly favored of any creatures in the
matter of luminous eyes. "The feline
eyes, as of a puma or wildcat, blaz-
ing with wrath, sometimes affect one
like an electric shock. but for intense
brilliance the yellow globes Of the owl
are unparalleled" Mr.. Hudson asserts
that nature has done comparatively lit
tie for the human eye either in these
terrifying splendors or in beauty. He
says that in Brazil he was greatly i'm
pressed with the magnificent appear
ance of many of the negro women, but
that if they had only possessed the
golden irides" of certain intensely
black tropical birds their unique love-
liness" would have been complete.
