Etiquette.

There is an ancient saying that "One
should never speak of rope to man
whose father was hanged" and there
is great deal implied in those few
words. In effect, is meant that subjects
of conversation should be carefully in
troduced where persons present are
not known to certain extent; that is
that nothing untoward has happened
publicly, at least, that would make
any unusual subject apply too openl!
to anyone especially.

CIeverness of Chinese.

1t is acknowledged that the Chinese
are very skillful in making confection-
cry and possess the reputation of hav-
ing many secrets. They are able to
empty an orange of its pulp entirely
then fill it up with fruit jelly without
one being able to find the smallest
cut in the rind or even a tiny hole.
Indeed, they even empty an egg in
this manner and fill it with sort of
almond nougat without one being able
to find the slightest break or incision
in the shell.

GIBRALTAR OF THE BALTIC
Helsingfors the Capital of Finland
and the Mart for the People of
the Country.

Christian Herald: Helsignfors,
the capital OF Finland, is one of the
interesting towns of Europe. Wa
ter seems to surround it on every
side. 1t dates back to 1850, when
It was founded by the Swedish king,
Gustav Vasa, and the liberties Of
a town were Immediately conferred
upon the little hamlet as a special
favor. From the water side it is
protected by the great fortress of
Sveaberg, which is called the "Gi-
braltar of the Baltic" and of which
one occasionally reads in the news
dispatches. The highest point in
Helsingfors is crowned by great
and imposing Lutheran church, and
the majority OF the Firms are ad-
herents of this faith.
Through the center OF Helsing-
fors runs a great boulevard, known
as the Espanade- Gatan, and this is
the center OF life in summer. The
schools close for these months and
everybody enjoys one long holiday
as far as possible. One day seems
almost to melt in another. The
young women one sees in Helsing-
fors are of the blue-eyed, flaxen-
haired type, for the Swedish type
seems to prevail here. Young girls,
almost to the end of the teens,
wear their hair in two flaxen braids
that hang down the back. They
have the same social freedom as
their sisters on this side of the At
lantic.
The market OF Helsingfors is an
excellent place to study the Firms
and their characteristics. From all
over the surrounding country the
peasants drive into the towns with
their produce, and sell it direct to
the townfolk. A small farmer may
have killed sheep or pig, and may
be observed driving keen bargain
Tor the best cuts. Another has a
few tiny kegs OF butter covered
with a layer Of grass to keep it
cool. Under old cotton umbrellas
sit the market women with highly
colored waists and black or white
handkerchiefs tied over their heads.
In a small basin are the boats of
ihe fishermen just in from their
catch. The housewives or maids
pass from one stall or boat to an
other, inspecting their wares. A
little after noon the fishermen and
market merchants who have come
by sea, set sail, the cotton umbrel-
las come down. the wagons roll
away, and the entire market disap-
pears as il by magic.

rushed into the fields. The cotton
crop has been chopped and the town
people expect to continue their vol
unteer work until all crops are in
condition for the season.

About five thousand bushels will be
the harvest, it is estimated, although
some fields offer higher averages
than usual while others will fall be-
low or about to the So -bushel crop
average.
The wheat is considered excellent
and 100 per cent finer in grade than
ever before.

United Naval Strategy
Is Choking the Hun

Washington, June Benefits
derived by united naval strategy OF
the United States were pointed out
here today by naval officials who
read with interest the statement OF
admiral Wemyss on the operation
OF German submarines off the
American coast.
The navy is naturally much graf
iiled at the appreciative words of
Admiral Wmyss in regard to naval
cooperation in European waters"
said Acting Secretary Roosevelt.
The keynote OF our naval policy
from the very beginning has been a
united strategy. 1t would have
been easy to fall into the error of
assigning separate zones of opera
s!on to the various navies, but it
vas evident from the first, as Ad-
miral Wemyss points out, that the
principal naval forces must be con-
centrated in the decisive area of the
narrow seas around England and
France.
with this in mind, the evident
German effort to break up this
concentration by sending raiding
submarines TO our own coast has
tailed utterly in its purpose. One
submarine or possibly two at the
present time, or even a continua-
ton OF the scattered attacks must
and will be met on this side by sup
Elementary naval operations with
out in any way weakening the main
effort OF hunting the submarines in
The narrow seas off Europe to con-
roy troops and supply ships across
the ocean.
That this singleness of purpose
Is actually succeeding is proved by
the fact that the German naval OBJ
Jective. which has been often an
nounced for over three years, has,
up to the present, entirely failed in
lis purpose. The British and Amer
lcan naval forces at all points are
working not only in complete har-
mony but with constant interchange
OF idea that is improving the eff
cheney OF both services
