japanese Trade With Panama.

A Japanese consulate has been es-
tablished in Panama city. This Is the
outcome OF growing commercial rela-
lions between Japan and the republic
OF Panama. Although there are few
japanese residents in Panama, the
prospects for trade between the two
countries are excellent. Japan Is now
exporting canned goods, boxes, furni-
ture, skins, willow baskets, figured
mats, grass goods enrthen wares, silk
and cotton goods and many other
things to that country, the total value
Of which amounted 10 $l3,6s4,OO0 in

Enormous Sea-Going Raft

While log RATS are by no means
new, the huge raft recently con-
structed at Haparanda, Sweden, and
used to ship large number of logs
TO Copenhagen, Denmark, is worthy
Of passing mention.
The great raft measures 1877 feet
long, 55hs feet wide. 10 feet above the
waterline and 1914 feet below.
The raft took six months to build
and contains as, much wood as four
big steamers. 1t is held together by
an ingenious system of steel cables
and wires, and is capable OF carrying
large amount Of material. The crew
consists Of seven men.

GAVE TITLE TO RED CROSS
Indianapolis Man Found Pleasure In

He was little old man. clad In the

from the cantcen information booth ut

Red Cross women had checked the
baggage of n group of, men just back
from overseas. Then he eased up to
the desk and thrusting his arm quickly
forward, laid a $50 bill In the hand Of
one of the attendants.

FACTS OF MOST IMPORTANCE
Those Which Tell Best About Past
and Future States Of Object,
Aeserts Ruskin.

IL ought further to be observed re-
specting truths in general, that those
are always most valuable which are
most historical, that Is, which tell US
most about the past and future states
of the object tO which they belong.
In tree, for instance, It Is more Inn
portant to give the appearance OF en-.
ergy and elasticity in the limbs which
is indicative Of growth and life, than
any particular character of leaf or tex
ture of bough. II is more important
that we should feel that the upper
most sprays are creeping higher and
higher into the sky, and be impressed
which Is animating every fibre than
that we should know the exact pitch
OF relief with which those iibres are
thrown out against the sky. For the
first truths tell us tales about the
tree, about what 1t has been, and will
be, while the last are characteristic
OF 1t only in its present state. and
are In no way talkative about them
selves. Talkative facts are always
more Interesting and more important
than silent ones. so, again, the lines
In crag which mark its stratiHca.
ton, and how II has been washed and
rounded by water, or twisted and
drawn out in fire, are more important.
because they tell more than the stains
Of the lichens. which change year by
year, and the accidental assures Of

SUGGESTION BY HANK O'DAY
Veteran Arbiter Wants Rules Amended
to Give Umpire on Bases Joint
Jurisdiction on RaIks.

Hank O'Day, the veteran umpire of
the National league, has made u tine
suggestion to President Heydler Of the
National league. II is his opinion that
the baseball rules should be so amend
ed that the base umpire would have
joint jurisdiction with the one at the
plate in calling balks on pitchers,
ODay declares that the position of the
base umpire Is usually more advan-
tageous In the matter OF detecting such
faults.

The Recurrent Epidemic.

INFLUENZA has become epidemic in
Great Britain again. It is particularly
severe in Scotland and the north Of
England. The attack is said to be worse in
some respects than the original one, be-
cause pneumonia follows in larger pro-
portion of cases.
simultaneously there are new outbreaks
of the ailment in many American commun-
ities
1t is necessary to call attention once
more to this especially diabolical phase of
the present worldwide epidemic fact
that it is recurrent- having the dis
ease does not give future immunity against
it. Most Of the great epidemics have swept
through country after country and burned
themselves out in one devastating conflag-
ration. The "flu" may strike the same
country second time, and SO far as any
body knows, again and again. 1t may
sweep over any particular community
again, no matter how severely that COM
munity was stricken on the former visit. It
may attack any family again. It may pick
out those missed at first, or it may attack
the same victims again, as an ordinary
cold often does.
It is time that people everywhere should
recognize this danger, and act accordingly.

resumption of the epidemic; but individ-
uals can be kept on their guard, and can
take proper precautions when they come
in contact with "flu'' cases, or when they
contract the disease themselves.
A few months of continuous vigilance
would doubtless wipe out the plague.
Otherwise we may keep on suffering and
dying from it for years.

It is good to learn that the German gov

bear as the inevitable penalty Of its untold
crimes against civilization.
While official announcement of the
terms is still lacking, all accounts agree

expected by the Germans themselves. The
delegates went to the conference buster

cold sweat, trembling like beaten hounds.
They had met their master. Foch had alb
solutely refused to pafley. He had for
them only the curt order, "Sign there!"
And they signed.
The conditions are said to include the
reduction Of the German army to mere
police force of 100000 or so, the control of
German munition factories by the allies,
the payment by Germany of all the ex-
penses of the armies of occupation, and the
fulfllment to the letter of all conditions,
soon to be announced, as the demolition of
the forts at Heligoland and the Kiel canal,
the destruction of the entire effective
German war fleet, the restoration in kind
of the machinery stolen from France and
