Although unbridled rage is helpful in
fight among the lower animals, need
less to say 1t is the reverse of service
able in the deliberate fighting of man
against man, as In boxing and fencing,
for here anger interferes with those
cautious methods of attack and de-
Tense which are essential to success.
To lose ones temper in fighting Of this
kind may be to lose the fight. With
this reservation 1t is curious to note
the close kinship between the COM
Blatant instinct of man and of the low
er animals. The untamed man, when
enraged, assumes in very truth the as
pect of the tiger; he puts himself in
a threatening attitude, frowns, glares,
rolls his eyes, grinds his teeth, snarls,
growls, even roars-thus instinctively
seeking to strike terror into his op-
ponent.

Count Leo Tolstoy in his youth laid
down a large number Of rules for his

which you have set yourself" And
the second was: Regard feminine So

and, in so far as you can, avoid 1t. :"
His failure to heed his own warnings

gloomy record of shortcomings:

TUESDAY, APRIL 2, 1918

WHILE Governor Edge was giving
another luncheon at which he was dis
cussing with leaders of the Repu blican
party the problem Of his entering the
race for United States Senator, Col.
Colgate. of Essex county, filed his Pc
tition and entered the contest, He
has given very plain statement OF
his platform and will enter the cam
paign with the same vigor that char
acterized his work in the Gubernator-
ial contest. While there are claims by
his friends that Col. CoIgateis especial
ly strong in the upper part OF the state
and that there seems to be a feeling
that he should be allowed to be recon-
pensed for his failure to secure the
Gubernatorial nomination, there are
other reports which indicate that the
Colonel has not regained any addition
al popularity or strength and that he
may not be as strong candidate as
he was in 1916. Very much of the re
suit of this campaign for United States
Senator will depend upon the attitude
of Governor Edge and former Governo
Stokes. The decision of either or boil
of these gentlemen to get into the con
test will cut considerable of figur'
even in the upper part of the stat
where Col. Colgate appears to be de
pending entirely for his success.

Rsst. Known Huntinn Docs.

Two distinct breeds Of hunting dogs
in ancient times were the greyhound
and the bloodhound, and their origin
is lost in the misty ages of the long
ago. Tablets unearthed at Nineveh
show by pictures that both dogs were
common in that ancient day. The
bloodhound was first selected on ae-
count of his good nose in scentiag

became the thinner of olden days, that
Is, the bloodhound led In leash or
line to track the quarry to its lair
or harbor. He was used only to locate
the game and was never off the lead
while the greyhound's mission was to
race at the game and pin it by the
nose.

ALL RESPECT POWER OF MACE
Emblem of Authority Raised in House
of Representatives Has a Mar
velousIy Quieting Effect.

The American house of represent
atives is modelled closely after the
house of commons. and at the time of
It's organization the mace was also
adopted as its symbol of authority
The first one to be used was destroyed
when the British burned the capitol
building at Washington in 1914, and
of the original, made of painted wood
was used. In the latter year the pres.
ent mace was made and put into use.
1t is composed of a bundle of ebony
rods, three feet long, bound together
by silver bands, after the manner Of
the fasces. From the center of one end
protrudes a slender silver stem, repre-
sentative of the ak of the ancient
models. On this is mounted a solid sill
yer globe, five inches in diameter,
while browning the top of this globe
stands silver eagle with outstretch-
ed wings.
This is the emblem of the house
and whenever that body becomes I'M
ruly, as often happens. and the speaker
is unable to restore order, the ser
geant-at-arms is summoned and, lift
ing the mace from its place on the
pedestal, raises 1t aloft and carries It
up and down the aisles. Order is
instantly restored; every member sinks
into his seat and absolute silence
reigns.
Such is the power of the mace.
Every member must respect it's author
ity. and should any fail to do so, he
Is liable to a heavy fine or even ex-
pulsion.

SEEK ONLY TO PLEASE EYE
From Satisfying the Requirements
of the inner Man.

In the matter of eating 1t is agreed
that the Japanese cuisine is not of
the richest in nutritive culture. 1t is
not inexpensive; japanese dinners are
elaborate in preparation, artistic in
presentation, but for satisfying the in
ner man are far inferior to European
or even Chinese cooking. The chief
Characteristic of purely japanese din
ner is to please the eye, not the palate
or stomach. 1t is a national joke that
one must eat meal before going to
or after returning from a Japanese
dinner.
Oh, how much labor and expense are
lavished on gochiso Entertainment
to make 1t nice to look att That is all
sheer waste and luxury and is to be
condemned. Providence has kindly
put in the power of every Japanese to
live in the most economical manner, so
the Japanese dinner is blasphemous

is an anachronistic relic of feudalism.

Corsicans Hard Fighters.

In the matter of utter disregard for
death, of complete forgetfulness of
self, French officers agree that the Cor
sicans are superior to all other SOL
diers of France. Impetuous and vim
dictive, they hate the enemy with a
passionate ferocity that blinds them
to any thought of danger Besides
this. they are intensely proud of the
fact that they come from the island
that produced Napoleon, and cherish
above all else the recollection of the
military valor of the greatest of Corsi-
cans. To them cowardice is the I'M
forgivable sin, and to falter in the
face of danger is to win the eternal
contempt of comrades.
The Corsicans have a long warlike
history, and years ago fought side by
side with the British. For brief Pc
Rod in the eighteenth century Corsica
was under the protection of Great
Britain, and the people acknowledged
George III as their king.

Easy to ExtermInate. Skunk.

Some authorities hold that skunks
are the most abundant of all wild ami
mails. This is hard to believe after
one has long watched the squirrels and
the rabbits. but it may be true. 1t
must be remembered that the daylight
skunks are the exceptions, and that
most of the tribe only show themselves
by starlight. For all we know, every
field may be chock full of slunlxs at
midnight. If it be true that they are
our most plentiful species 1t must be
apparent that the harm they do is not
tremendous. 1t would be compara-
lively easy to exterminate them as so
many of our small woodland species
have been exterminated. Besides.
skunk pelts are valuable. With the
double incentive of revenge and profit
skunk hunters should be able to make
