The Colombian Treaty

Time and circumstances alter cases, that out rageous the proposed Columbian treaty appeared in 1911-12 in MT. Wilson's administration, appears to be good business.
 The treaty favored in the beginning by element of reactonary Republicans who at tracted it by the clause discrediting President Roosevelt by apologizing for the part he alleged to have taken in the Panaman rebellion For the reason MT. Bryan and MT. Wilson urged 1t in the first congress after March 4, 1913.
 There were two grounds of opposition. to the apology clause and the other based upon the fact that Colombia deserved compensation for the loss of Panama Indeed the proposition compen- sate Colombia carried with it assumption had wronged Colombia that the apologetic clause really superfuous, gratuitous and brutal in- suit Mir. Roosevelt
 We do not think that this principle has been al- tered within the last ten but the oil situation has been greatly altered We only repeat that the adoption of the treaty is good business" It sometimes good business" to yield to black mailer nearly always good business" for to stick up" his hands at the command of armed highwayman

By Frederic J. Haskin

WASHINGTON, April 13.-John Burroughs surely had one of the longest and fullest lives an American ever lived. He scarcely had need to read American history for he had lived through most of it. He was born in 1887. In his early twenties he was writing essays and poems, initiating the great Ralph Waldo Emerson, who wast then the domi- hating literary genius of America. Think of a man who began his writ ing career as Contemporary of Emerson and who puhlished his last book this yearI For no less than 50 years-a1most two gone cations-he was an author in active practice.
 His life was his real masterpiece. Not that his works are not valuable. He was an essayist of real distinc- ton and a sound philosopher. He taught great many how to find beauty and interest in the out-of- doors and perhaps he taught a few how to accept the universe" as he did. seeing life clearly, with all its hazards and hardships, its soon and certain end, leaning on no super natural faith or hope of future ex- istence and yet achieving serenity.
 That was what he preached. and whether he preached it convincingly IL. dignity and success. He began life as q poet Later he became an es- sayist. and finally his whole thought and effort turned to science. All O! his later writings were designed tc win men over to the scientific view of life.
 Burroughs, like most scientists, re- iected religion. He could not believe in q future life or in a creator of the universe He began his intellectua development at a time when Darwin: theory of evolution was still sen sation. when religious men were stil declaiming against it, and scientific men were declaiming against reli- zion. and some benighted visionarie' were trying to reconcile the two Burroughs of course took the scien tific side and Darwin became hi idol.
 Many of his later essays reflec this intellectual conflict of his youth

tive he stood aside from the troubled and violent current of American life. Life rushed by him as a mob dashes by some quiet astonished bystander. Here were men hot after money, men worn and torn by ambitions, men fol- lowing all sorts of religions and sup erstitions and isms, some in ecstacy and some in anguish. Here was all most everything save a man at peace with himself and with his fellows. His Greed
 Burroughs, out of his vast serenity spoke to the mob gently. He bade these excited ones to calm. if only because their futile little lives were not worth getting excited about. He bade them stop and notice how beau tiful was sunlight on water and ths song of a mockingbird and the first green of spring. He suggested thai since they were here for such a little while it might be well to pause fol a moment and to enjoy the beauty and wonder of the spectacle of life All of them, he saw. were madly run. ming away from the reality of life 1 that is, from nature. because they hat
 not the courage to face it.
 And he tried to tell them that al
 though nature is indeed terrible, sh'
 is beautiful, and not always crue to those who understand her. Ant | why run away from her, anyway There is really no escape.
 Most of them paid no attention t | him. A few of them stopped anl listened for moment and then raj

 this old man much rare peace am l strength of spirit. He was not cal
 culated to influence many, not onl
 because his philosophy was too aus tere for them and demanded nor
 courage than the many have. but als
 because he knew nothing about then He was no social observer; he was
 recluse He did not try to fit hi philosophy to other mems lives. l. This philosophy was woven throug
 and through his writings. It is jus
 as well expressed in this bit as in an
 other:
 Man has taken his chance in tn
 clash of blind matter and the warfar
 of living forms. He has been the pc
 of no gods, the favorite of no powe on earth or in heaven Gravit, electricity, fire, flood hurricane wi } crush or consume him if his hand
 unsteady or his wits tardy. Natur has dealt with him on the same term as with all other forms of life. Sh
 has shown him no favor. The sam
 elements make up his body an his brain as make up theirs, and tn same are the constituents of tn | rocks, soils ard clouds. Ho' can we separate man from the tots system of things, setting him upo
 one side and them upon the other In life, in action we unconsciousi
 recognize ourselves as part of ma ! ture. Our success and we'll bein ! depends upon the closeness and spon . taneousness of that relation"
 : Whatever that idea may be wort 2 to you, it brought great peace an : comfort to Burroughs.

BURROUGHS

He wrote somewhat as though the great war of the last century between religion and science were still going hotly forward, as though he did not realize that a truce had long since been called, the scientists and the partisans of revealed religion going their separate ways. And yet none of Burroughs writing seems irrele- want or out of date. For he was all ways trying to persuade his readers to love nature, to understand nature, to see that their real salvation lay in a life of intelligent adjustment to natures laws.
 Not a Sentimentaiist
 Burroughs created througn ms writings a whole army of sentimental nature lovers-of ladies who rave over sunsets and bird songs, and tell you how sweet and lovely nature IS l He must have viewed these disciples of his with horror For he saw na-

 no proof or even indication of an! life beyond the present one-nothin:

 He must realize further, Burrough said. that this life is a thing of hazard

 other form of life on this globe. Thi is perhaps a terrible philosophy, am , one which calls for courage. but Bur roughs believed that a high serenit may be gained from it. that the ma

 Removal of MoIes
 Can a mole be removed from the face permanently without leaving ay scar? Would such an operation be dangerous? I have heard blood poi soning may result.
 The likelihood of there being a mark of any kind following the re- moval of a mole would probably de- pend upon the size and condition of the mole, the manner of its removal. and the skill of the operator There should be little danger of blood pois- oning if you select a competent, care ful, conscientious specialist Your family physician will probably be glad to recommend one.
 Circuiatory Trouble A
 Parts of my body feel numb and cold What should I do?
 This may be due to poor circula- tion, but other causes must be con- sidered. Even in cases of poor cir culation, it may be possible to get at the underlying cause of the trouble. Instead of attempting to doctor your self, you should go to a qualified physician, have him give you a thor ough examination to find out what is wrong, and then you should follow his advice regarding treatment. Any other plan is most unwise, and may be dangerous.
 Rupture
 Are ruptures ever cured by medi- cine applied on the skin above the place where the rupture is located!
 Rupture cannot be cured by the application of medicines on the skin over the rupture. In infants. ruptures through the navel can often be per manently cured by the application Of some firm support. It is customary in these cases to wrap small disc, about the size of a 50-cent piece, In piece of cloth. and strap this firmly over the navel. After some months this treatment usually suffices to bring about a permanent cure In dealing with ruptures in an adult, let me remind you that the operative method of treatment is now so well understood that excellent re- suits are obtained by surgeons rhroughout the country.
