WILSON MAY MAKE
TOUR Of AMERICA
IN RETURN HOME
Considers Making Speeches
in Leading Cities to Create
Sentiment for His Peace
Policies. Abroad

President Wilson is considering a
speaking tour Of the United States
when he returns home. 1t is said thi9;
trip Will take him into many of the
principal cities and it is possible he
may touch the Pacific coast. His plans
are not as yet natured, but it is be-
ieved he has discussed the plans
with his advisors.
With congress out of the way early
in March, Mr.. Wilson could have an
opportunity FOR such a tour before
returning to Europe should he fol-
low his original plan and if his re-
turn should be necessary. He also
would have time for his proposed trip
before the converting of an eXtraordi-
nary session Of congress should he
decide to call one. So far as known,
MIR. Wilson mas no plans for an extra
session, but he still holds to his idea
Oh returning 20 the peace congress,
if it is felt his presence is necessary
to the success of the league of ma
tons.
The object Of his proposed speak
ing tour would be to inform the
country by personal contact of the
proceedings at Paris and at the same
lie sentiment i'll support of the peace
principles he has enunciated and
which he feels have been acclaimed
by the masses in Europe.
Trip Is Feasible
There are as vet no official an
nouncements Of the presidents pur-
pose, but some of those close to him
suggest such q trip is feasible in
view of the fact it is now certain the
peace congress will still be working

might support those of England

EeIs Are EeIs.

John Treadwell Nichols, assistant
curator Of the department of ichthy-
ology of the American Museum Of Nat
ural History, has done his bit for the
food supply by an effort to lessen the
prejudice against eelS.
The chapter Of the cookbook devoted
to eels should begin: "First catch
your eel; then forget how it looks"
The trouble with eating eels is at
the start. After the first plate of eels
the reluctant customer is ready for
more.
Mr.. Nichols assures us that eels
have, in fact, no relationship with
snakes. They have developed their
form and sinuosity by their habit Of
pOking into cracks and crannies Of
waterbeds. They are true fishes and
should not be victims of the prejudice
against snakes.
The classic way to cook eels is to
skin them, clean them, cut them into
lengths and fry in butter. MANY per-
sons" says Mr.. Nichols, "ind them
delicious" That's no He.-Buffalo En-

a good story against himself, as wit

of relating.
Some years ago, fresh from his
South African triumphs, he addressed
an audience Of undergraduates at his
old university.
"We must remember not merely
the beauty Of the individual colleges,
but the beauty of Oxford as a whole.
And what a whole it is."
"Hear, hearw yelled the varsity

grOaned. "What a beastly holel"
Then it dawned upon Lord Miner
that this was a sentiment he would

ALWAYS HUNGRY AT NIGHT
Kansas City Man Beginning to Fear
He Is Afflicted With an Un-
patriotic Stomach.

A Kansas City man who is trying to
BE very patriotic is beginning to won
der if he is not cursed with pro-
German stomach. During the daytime,
when he is up On his feet, he has no
trouble observing the food regulations,
but just as soon as he lies down at
night to go to sleep, his stomach takes
advantage Of the fact that he is flat
on his back and refuses to give way
to Morpheus until he eats again.
Sometimes manage to get to sleep
without taking on an extra cargo OF
food" he says. 'But when I do l usu-
ally wake up in the middle of the night
with a mad craving for food, and the
only way can get back to sleep is to
get up, 90 out to the kitchen and cook
myself some hot food"
The man says he has tried his best
to overcome this hunger habit, but is
unable to do so. Several times a week
he will 90 to the kitchen in the middle
Of the night, put on q skillet and fry
piece Of ham, or bacon and eggs, and,
after eating an ordinary size meal, viii
90 back to bed and sleep. He says he
has tried eating fruits and light food,
but his stomach win have none Of these
ana insists upon meats. Often when he
is standing over q skillet dressed only
in his pajamas il the dead Of night he
says he feels like o thief stealing food,
while others who patrioticaIIy observe
all of Mr.. Hooyer's regulations are
asleep.
Maybe you have a tapewOrm with
Teutonic leanings," a friend suggested.
Maybe I have" the man replied,
sadly, "but I think it is an inherited
habit thar is just getting a grip on me.
l remember when my folks lived on a
farm near POmerOy. When l was just
q kid my father used to have to get
UP in the night and eat as do. But it
is only recently that l have become
addicted to the habit, and it is only
since the food regulations became SO
strict that l have worried about it."
Maybe your Wife's cooking is not as
good as it used to be-" was the next
logical suggestion.
Don't you ever think it isn't, young
mani" the glutton Of the darkness re-
piled Indignantly. ''My wife, sir, is the
best cook in Kansas City! You may ac-
cuse me of having German tapewOrm
or Of having an unpatriotic stomach,
but you must not reflect upon my
wife's culinary art. Good evening, sir !"

LEARN FINE ART OF RESTING
Ability to Do and Work Depends on
Ones Knowing Just How to Spend
Leisure Time,

Rest is a blessing laid up Tor the
tired only, not for the pleasure seeker.
1t is a relaxation from toll, not a new
thrill for the bored. 1t is not q pickle
following a feast of cake, nor is it
within reach of the lazy. 1t is a gift
for the sole use and behoOt Of him
who has tOiled. No one reaches the
door leading to rest without first pass
ing through the workrOom.
Most tired folk have wasted much
good strength, but this folly does not
bar them from entering into the house
of rest. If all lived wisely there would
be need of few hospitals, and if only
those who labored wisely rested there
would be no rest for the race this side
of the cemetery.
"StonewaIl" Jackson, whose army
corps was swift of foot used to say
81 like to see my men lie fiat on their
backs. A man rests more that way"
That is the primitive way of resting.
Mother Earth has a broad lap and
restful way of holding her children.
A wise physician, when sending q
patient on his summer vacation re-
Gently, said: "On your drive don't try
to get anywhere. any place is a good
place to stop, If you stop before you
are tired. Don't try to cover any pre-
scribed distance in one day. Don't
make or keep any engagements. Be
criminalIy lazy. Avoid folks. Fish.
When tired Of fishing, lie down under
a tree and look up. If you fall asleep,
sleep. When you wake up, fish some
more. Forget that you ever lived be-
fore that one day"
The ability Of a man to fill his mind
full of one day depends On his having
trained himself to see things out Of
doors, to fill himself with the immedi-
ate pleasant present without having to
draw on the unpleasant past. Happy
is that man who can get IA days Of
rest out of a two weeks vacation.
The ability to live well the remain
der Of the year may lie wholly in
knowing how to occupy those two
weeks, for if one learns on this sum-
mer outing that the art of resting in
c1udes the fine art of forgetting, he
may practice the same art throughout
the year at home in his little rest
spells. What a man brings out Of the
rest room depends largely on whether
or not, when going in, he remembered
to shut the door behind him.

Why America succeeds in chIna.

"Chinese-Japanese friendship has
long been on the lips Of both Japanese
and Chinese, but with little result"
says the Tokyo Nichi-nichi. Equally
true it is that feeling Of reliance on
America is growing apace in China" !"
The editor then explains the situation
by mentioning the consideration shOwc
to China by the government of the
United States in renouncing the Boxer
indemnity, in generous treatment CIV
en- to Chinese students, and in Amer
ican educational work carried on in
China. The chief reason which is de-
laying the realization of Chinese-Jap-
anese cordiality, the editor thinks, is
that the Chinese do not accurately un-
derstand how necessary is political and
economic friendship for the good Of
the two countries. Japan needs raw
materials and has money enough to
pay for them, while China's resources
are ineXhaustible, but she has no mon
ey to develop them. Then, too, the
Russian menace is at China's front
door. In conclusion, the editor of the
Nichi-nichl urges a Chinese-Japanese
chamber of commerce.
