 We are hearing a good deal of hard words expressed against the old con- sular service. Perhaps most of them are justifiab1e. but. when all is said, it has one or two good episodes to it's credit. We recall the case of an Eng lishman in Havana years ago who was accused without any real evidence of a murder he had merely witnessed. The English consul, hearing he was to was to be shot. went down in full uniform to protest. The commander of the firing party refused to listen.
 "I may at least shake hands with my compatriot," said the consul. Per mission was given, he walked up. whipped a Union Jack out of his pock- ct. draped the, man in it, and then said: Now shoot if you dare.'

Zealand.

Zeerand, called a paradise of quaint costumes,' where bare arms always were the fashion. and where the miss of four dresses exactly as does her mother of forty, is the subject of a bulletin from the Washington head quarters of the National Geographic society,".
 with the announced desire of Belgium to annex that one-third portion of ZeeIand which lies south of the ScheIdt river, is based on communi- cation of Florence Craig Albrecht, as follows:
 szeeland is a paradise of quaint costumes. Every island, almost every town, once had it's own distinctive dress and many still retain it.
 The butter market at Mjddelburg has a pretty setting. The wagons and chaises roll up to the two gateway-s in endless procession, and the fair Welcheren danes descend with much shaking of voluminous skirts and aprons, much batting of caps and ad- iusting of coral necklaces, to set their baskets of golden butter and pearly eggs in even rows upon the long benches within before trotting off to the inevitable shopping.
 "The product of dairy and chicken coop belongs exclusively to the farm CTS wives in Zealand. It is they who do the selling, they who spend the earnings. You may find the men at the grain market. on the corners where pigs, calves. or sheep are for sale; in the cafes and about the market square smoking and drinking with their fellows, and upon the days of great cattle markets very busy driV- ing shrewd bargains.
 'EThe butter market is ready for business about 1 o'clock. If you saunt- CT in them through the iron gateway. now standing hospitably wide to i'm vite buyers, you will find the front TOW Of benches occupied around all three sides of the arcade with close set rows of heavy baskets and the back row by the wall with a hundred or more rosy farmers wives and daughters, dainty as the proverbial new pin. in glistening white caps, gold spirals, coral necklaces, many finger rings, and best black aprons over th he second best gown.

OUR TIMBER SUPPLY.

Henry s. Graves. head of the United
 States forestry service has only re- gently returned from Europe and he
 brings the information that the de- mand for lumber from that conti- nent is going to be so great that the drain on American forests in the years immediately ahead is going to be even heavier than in the past, and declares
 that immediate steps should be taken for the regulation and restrie-
 ton of the export of American lum-
 Der if we are going to retain a supply sufficient to meet our own require ments in the immediate future.
 There is in session this week in
 Maine the Association of Eastern For esters upon which President Pack of the American Forestry associatio has urged the necessity of discuss ing plans for the perpetuation of the forests of New England and the eastern part of the country and the restoration of the denuded forest land.
 Forest lands. it should be remem- bered serve a double purpose. They furnish not only lumber but they protect the great watersheds and both are of the greatest value. This part of the country is by no means a fac tor in meeting the lumber require ments for it is not able to supply it's own demands in this direction. Less and less able is it to meet the re- quirements for such use as it makes of it's woodlands. so that it is quite evident that too much attention can not be directed to the checking of waste, to the need of protection and to the work of reforestation wherever such is possible. The need for such is of the greatest importance in every section of the country and the quicker attention and effort can be aroused in that direction the more quickly will the desired and necessary results be obtained. It is a matter in which not only the foresters but the timberland owners and the lumbermen should be equally. interested

RIGHT ACTION.

The federal authorities are appar- ently engaged in much needed bit of work in New York in connection with the violation of the narcotic drug laws and regulations. This is indicated by the arrest of physicians and druggists for illegal traffic in drugs. it being possible for the addicts to get what they want in the dope line through men in these professions who care more for the fees that they can get from the trade than in obeying the laws.
 In fact it appears that many have not taken the trouble to find out what the provisions of the laws are regard ing which so much has been said and in violation of which so many arrests have been made. This is indicated by the fact that dozens are appealing to the state narcotic commission to find out what the federal and state regula- tions are when as a matter of fact they should be fully informed upon such matters. The inference is that they have not been inclined to be gov erned by the regulations, hoping that they could escape detection and make a handsome profit from the bus mess, but inasmuch as it asSbeen made evident by the activity of the government authorities that enforce ment is going to be insisted upon they are making eleventh hour efforts to get under cover or make a futile plea of ignorance.
 Determined campaigns against the interruptions handlers of drugs is what has long been needed. They have done much to make the laws in- effective and to encourage the de- moralizing habit and it is certainly time that an example should be made of each and every one that is detect ed These very professional men should do their utmost to support the Grug laws rather than contribute their aid to defeating them because of nersOnal profit.
