THE OUTLOOK AT WASHINGTON.

While the outlook is not nearly as favorable no as 1t was in the beginning that the results of tl Washington Conference will be as satisfactory as w. hoped, it is too early to dispair and too soon to di count what already has progressed a long way towar accomplishment. Both the United States and Gre Britain have very strong representatives at the Cor ference, and the English speaking peoples are behi their representatives with very gratifying unanimit and the public sentiment of the world is very anxo, that something of definite benefit be done
 The great obstacle to success is fear-the fear c France that Germany may again get into posto to strike her she has twice struck in recent hi tory She cannot apparently, bring herself to see ar other method of protecting herself that possibi ity than the one upon which European powers hay always relied-a powerful military establishment

That would bring back to tn League of Nations Association of Nations an, it may be yet that such recourse must be adope before the sort of limitation of armament that al would like be achieved.

Another Sad Tale

AuOtUCT 0du dIS AS 1 was strolling along the shore, I beheld on a well-worn stone, A big and grizzled seafaring man And he laughed in a cavernous tone. Oh, I've buried my thirty-fourth wife said he,
 And I'm looking for thirty-five, But it beats the deuce, and he slapped his thigh, I can't make 'em stay alive. I feed 'em on herring and water cool And on Sundays we have some bread, But with all my kind. indulging ways, The whole thirty-four are dead.
