SUGAR PROFITEERS LOSE.

THERE will be little public sympathy for the

All sympathy for dstresses growing out Of the
situation Of the last few years will be reserved for

to supply their needs at any price.
The Boston man who has been enghtenng the
attorney general of Massachusetts, far his tes

interests is the explanation only OF the

We believe that there not available at all

DISEASE CARRIERS IS
MATTER OF IMPORTANCE
BY WNI. III. AIBTRN.

The study Of disease carriers IS
a matter which should lie pressed IN
every community. for until such
cases are detected and treated there
can be little assurance against The
spread OF communicable disease cs-
pecially among children.
II is known that there are carriers
Of typhoid. diphtheria and some OF
the so-called chndren's diseases.
Whether other ills still more deadly.
such as infantile paralysis can also
be conveyed by persons showing no
active symptoms IS yet 10 De dcterin-
ined, though research along these
lines progresses.
Pending further discovery. ac-
ton along lines adopted in Michigan
may well be taken generally. In
that state every carrier OF a danger
Gus communicable disease is subject

and quarantine as an active suffer

mUnity from germs has been pro, cd.

that eight children out Of 300 tested

Solitude Great
Medicine Taken
In Proper Doses
BY FRANKLIN d. ROGERS.

Remarking that solitude is the
greatest medicine a man can take
a former Princeton student who has
spent 10 years as a hermit on a
lonely island in Chesapeake bay,
with study for diversion, has re-
Joined human society.
Taken in such a dose as that
which he prescribed for himself, II
would drive most people mad. In
homeopathic quantities, however,
there is something TO be said in its
behalf. Solitude does more than
anything else TO develop the re-
sources for entertainment that are
10 be found in ones own mind. And
the person with these resources de-
veloped has a happier time than one
who is dependent for entertainment
on the society Of other people. The
latter is likely TO be bored If forced
by circumstances to spend any con-
siderable period alone. He tires OF
reading. he tires OF playing solitaire,
or of playing the monograph, and
knows of no other way in which to
divert himself. on the other hand
the elf-contained person is usually
q student who finds everything
around him worthy Of study and
only regrets that he does not have
more time at his disposal for soil
tude and study.
The student finds life more inter-
esting than the person who cannot
bear solitude. and IS likely 10 make
a more valuable contribution to the
worlds welfare.
A liberal amount Of solitude is
Indispensable to the highest mental
cultivation. There can be little deep

A SORRY DEMONSTRATION.

NVTHEN the anti-Brtish element in New York
w tempted to disrupt the tercentary celebration
Of the landing of the Pilgrims in that city a
days ago they made a bad mistake
Shouting Down with England! Hurrah for Amer
ica" the mob burst into Carnegie hall where the
exercises being held. They carried banners
bearing the names of British delegates to the
centenary referring the delegates as British
spies" The intruders led by a group of
who said they belonged to The American wom-
en- pickets for the enforcement of Americas war
aims" Police reserves had to be summoned to eject
them from the hall.
That this mob is in no sense representative OF
American sentiment goes without saying,
nor would any of the thoughtful women Of Ameri-
ca give their countenance to any such organiza-
ton behavior
The tercentenary celebration Is Of purely historic
significance. and. rich in meaning and associations
for all true Americans from whatever race they
may have sprung All the better element in Ameri-
deplores the insult to English guests and the
attempt to break up the celebration
No friends Will be gained for anti British propa-
ganda by this sort of sorry demonstration while
numberless representative Americans who have
hitherto maintained attitude OF federation in the
matter will be antagonized and actively opposed
TO any anti-English agitation from now on
whether It be ultra-Irish, pro-Hearst Hi Johnson
or just plain pn-head.

Where Kissing
EUen Of Ones
Wife Is Crime
BY LOUISE ALLEMAN.

The Spanish are stiCxIers for
propriety, If we may Judge from a
dispatch from Madrid which tells
that a visitor in taking leave Of his
wife at the door Of a hotel kissed
her. The act was done under the
eyes of a policeman and the OsCula-
tory husband speedily found him
self in the clutches of the law. He
was informed that he had com
mitted a serious offensc against the
laws Of the Spanish capital ana
ignorance of the law provided no
excuse.
If il might be presumed that the
offense lay in the fact that he kissed
his wife. the dispatch corrects amy
such assumption by saying further
that II is an equal offense TO kiss
any woman while in the streets Of
the city. with or without her con-
sent. Thus there is no discrimina-
ton as TO women. However. the

probably impressed on his con
seriousness the gravity Of the crime.
So far as the Information 10 Us
goes. the prohibition applies TO
kissing on the streets. Whether IL
extends further is not stated. II
possibly also has 10 be done in the
sight Of a policeman. If the young
Spanish lovers are discreet they
may seek "a park, like some do I'm

they would probably be cautious
enough to glance around 10 see who
might be looking. We never would
have suspected that the Spaniards

They have never been puritanic.
However. those addicted to kissing
their wives Will do well To be care
