Enginnd's Policy Commercial

SO we are compelled to seek the mo-
tive for Englands Irish policy elsewhere
than in racial antipathy. Religious diff
ferences do not account for it. If Ire
land were peopled solely by lineal de-
scendants of King William III, imbued
one and all with the most uncompromis-
ing hatred of Popery, l hardly believe
the two peoples would get along any
better
The whole keynote cf English policy
toward Ireland has been to hamstrng
possible commercial rival. In the seven
teenth and eighteenth centuries acts of
Parliament were passed forbidding the
Irish to engage in certain lines of man
ufacture in which they were then dis
tancing the English. These laws are no
longer in force. True; but notice this
Ir modern times progress depends less
on individual than on collective action;
the destiny of people depends more
on the policy of its rulers than has ever
previously been the case. ducation,
improvement in harbors, railroads, bank
ing facilities, encouragement OF manu-
features and shipping are all proper
functions Of modern governments, The

A Week of Verse
The Lost Key
[ From NcClure's

ff rom MctuFe'sy
WHEN all the ragged robin ways of
youth were ours TO roam,
We lost the key to elfn-land among the
hills of home.
We could not break the wizard Jocks
that gripped the gate we knew.
The delicate green and golden gate Of
gossamers and dew.
We hunted for the glimmering key, we
thought we saw it CLEAN.
A green and crimson dragon-hy, by
many chuckling stream.
Till now, o far and far away, TO one
that listens long,
The laughter of our summer day has
deepened into song;
0 you may search among the frs, and
will search the fern;
And if we find our tahsman, thereU be
no more to learn;
For you will call aloud to me. or | will
call to you:
And the elm gate viii open on our
world of dawn and dew.
It's Hkelier 10 be at our feet than hid
ing very far
It's brighter than a flower. I think. but
darker than star:
So down the narrow glen well plunge,
in bracken to our knees,
And hunt for it as divers hunt for
pearls in Indian seax.
Then through the may we'll rise again
like swimmers through the foam
And I will search the golden gorse,
among the woods of home;
And you shall wade the crimson sea of
clover through and through
Until we find the key again to all the
dreams we knew.
But, if we cannot find it there, above
the woods Wen climb;
And you may search the yellow broom,
and | Will search the thyme:
And we viii ride the racing clouds. and
whistle to the lark;
And when the sky forgets the sun, we
shall not fear the dark;
For in your steadfast eyes III look, and
you will look in mine;
And there. together. We shall see the
hidden glory shine
Then all your soul viii call TO me and
mine will call to you;
And the gates of death viii open on
our world Of dawn and dew.

The Nordic F0lIacv

Assuming for the moment that the
ethnographical basis of the argument
just outlined is founded on facts, we can
make an interesting test of the validity
Of the conclusions reached. Suppose we
make little substitution, writing
French where Irish occurs and in place
Of English writing German. Here again
we have a people of Nordic race at grips
with people largely of Mediterranean
race, VIII CHI latter-if Mr.. Hely- Hutchin-
sons racial Characterization are sound
should be distinctly inferior in cul-
tural status to their Nordic opponents
If the assumed superiority of the Nords
is sufficient justification for England 5
attempt TO wipe out the Irish, surely il
is no less a justification of Germany S
attempts to crush France.
In what has gone before l assumed
for the moment that the racial classi-
ication laid down was the true one. II
will not be a difficult matter to show
that it is utterly at variance with the
facts.
The data which anthropolegy uses in
distinguishing between races are based
upon certain physical features of the
individual Principal among these phys
cal features are color of eyes, color OF
hair, stature and cephalic index, or ratit
of the breadth of the head to its length

An Effective Remedy

(From The Los Angeles Times
The increase in freight rates allowed
by the government would amount to
almost seven cents on lady's cloak
shipped from New York. But that
seven cents as it is passed down the
line will furnish somebody an excuse
for marking up the price of the gar
ment about $50 When an excuse is
wanted a mighty thin one will do.
When merchant mentions the freight
rate as a warrant for price boost hit
him on the head with hammer.

Revelation

From The sonreN
WALKING. these long, late twilights
of the spring,
Where all the fret OF life seems
nothing worth
And grief itself half-forgotten thing,
Less keen than these cool odors of
the earth
sometimes think we find the secret
gate
That gives on gardens of enchanted
light,
Restoring glories that we lost of late,
To quiet wisdom and more certain
sight.
A holier mood will haunt our stubborn
will,
Till we shall see reveaIments through
the grass,
And stop. abashed before a dafodil,
A shining weed, stone on ways we
pass,
Stand with barred head before the evs-
ming star,
And know these holy things fog
what they are.

lie Gentleman"

Languages, like states, have their
naturalization laws, some generous
IN their welcome, others stiff and eX-
elusive. No language is more liberal
to applicants for citizenship than
English; once an Immigrant word
demonstrates its usefulness it is
quickly enfranchised and treated as
indigenous. English, unlike German,
with its live roots, has little machin-
cry with which to construct new ma
tive words. Other tongues are far
more conservative, and most con-
sentative of all is French, built and
supervised by professional purists.
To be sure, in late years there has
been an abundant influx Of foreign,
especially English. words into famil-
lar French; witness football, sport,
home, lawn tennis, tank. Some new
corners slightly change their appear
ance, as 'le boXe," meaning a fistic
contest; others acquire specific
and even distorted Neutrality-suspicious.,

and smoking" short for smoking
jacket, denotes not that garment at
all, but dinner jacket. Still stran-
ger is the fate Of 5 o'clock tea, which
at Paris can be had under this name
anywhere between and 9 p m.
None of these terms, however, has
been formally admitted by the
supreme court of linguistic naturali-
cation. the French Academy, to the
official dictionary of France. The
first exception has just been made in
favor of the English word "gentle-
man." which is henceforth to have
official status as genuine French
noun. 1t is described as IAN English
word, sometimes employed in French
in the metaphorical and moral sense
Of the word gentilhomme The lat
ter, again, is interpreted as meaning
"a man who, without being noble by
race, has lofty sentiments, elegant
manners and does noble acts def
milton which calls to mind that of
Twelfth Night perhaps the best
in all literature:
"I am gentleman III
swear thou art;
Thy tongue, thy face, thy limbs, &C
tions and spirit
Do give thee fvefold blazon.'
The English gentleman has been
described as one of the finest prod
ucts of civilization; to his name at
taches the memory of many gallant

quest of the insularity and puristic
prejudice of French dictionary
makers, will count as none the least
of his achievements.

Corn has another advantage and
that Is that Its nature of growth is
such that 1t can be cultivated. Many
may think that this Is disadvantage.

lions of horns gathered from NIL over
the world for this particular purpose
The annual output Of combs from this
one city is about 25,000.O0O.
The horns having bccn sorted as to
quality and graded. are hattened md
shaped into oblong plates. The plates
are cut into pieces for combs, and
every bit Of the cutting Is done by
machinery. The twinnlng machines
as they are called, cut two combs at
once. The teeth nre then pointed. and
the combs go to the securing and pol.
ishing room. where the polishing Is
done by revolving wheels.
The natural color Of horn Is white.
but by means OF tremendous pressure
on the plates the natural white can
be changed to n greenish shade. md
II is from this that the very beautiful

A NDREW JoHNSoN'S presidency

ecuted the reconstruction laws that
had been passed over his vetoes, he
INSERTED the right, which never before
had been denied president, to choose,
