- It has been proposed by the premier Bf Canada that the Rush-Bagot treaty be modernized. This is an ancient docu- nenk It has been in existence for 1o4 Years and to all intents and purposes Ieerns as good today as 1t was when ne- yotiated. Just what the plans fer mod .ernizing it are arc not disclosed. but it Is realized that the treaty was made be- tween this country anG Great Britain in behalf of Canada, and that Canada oc- eupies a different position in the British empire than 1t did at that time But th4 treaty served effectively during all the century fn accomplishing It's purposes There have been no instances where it has not contributed to the people of the two countries as 1t was expected to, and 20 far as can be seen why 1t should not continue to do so.
 The treaty deals with the question ei naval armament on the great lakes and Lake champlaln and provides that each government shall have Tho more than scur ioo-tcn vessels, each to have nc more than one ls-peund cannon. Ii wasn't intended to create a navy on tht lakes and 1t has accomplished it's pur- pose. The two governments have nvei tn peace without yuspecting the actiVi ties of the other concerning naval yes Beis on the lake. Peace and self pro tection was the aim of the treaty am such have been accomplished. It can b. appreciated that vessels of the type per nittsd provide nc nucieus for war. Ina ls just what was intended and that | what is desired for the future. The go9t example of the past 100 years Is well u keep before us.
 IlaeFs is no reason for weakening rh xsaty. There Is no indication that sael h inteAded and from anything that ha beea disclosed 1t dees not appear tha Lhs modeFnizing of the treaty wlM giy my greater assurance of peace. Frou Efl indications 1t would appear to be a, Instance fer letting we'll enough alene whether the Canadian premier Will Lhla to favcFabiy urge hts proposition remains feg the discussloa of t to dis Acga.

Wheaever certain celebrations are to be held theFs is a natural desire to have he famous old Liberty bell aa one of lhe attractions.

HANpkERcHlEF PADS,

The use of black and white for a smart summer handkerehief is notice- able everywhere. Also the drawn thread style with hand embroidery which has already held a place through two seasons is still prcmi- nently displayed. Then there are a number of printed effects in colors, from the simple stripes and conven- tional borders to elaborate floral and figured designs.
 The small handkerchief both in white and solid color, with brilliant little cross stitch design in the corner and an eagfng hand done with a cro- schet. picot. Is a novelty.
 All-white models are numerous, some with embroidered corners. others with drawnwork as a trim. Madeira embroidery finds a prominent place also.
 Applique material in centrasting color used with embroidery of vari- ous types is favored. Corners are ire quently treated this way, but some times the decoration is set quite far up.
 A solid color model with self color embroidery in the wide hem is attrae. tive.
 Ginghan is represented with hand, embroidered motifs in the corners. IT all-white the favored trimming is fine real lace, as filet. Valenciennes and VeniSe.

Rather she will teach him compassion and thoughtful care of others, by training him to carry his Teddy bear carefully, to pat not whip, his hoppy horse, to love his animal toys yet more when ''maimed or halt, or blind" than when in their first glory. She will teach him that all animals are mans friends until he himself turns them into foes. She will explain to him that the dog which barks at him is merely saying good morning" and he must answer with a kind word, that when it wags it's tail it is laughing and that it pants because It has no pores in it's skin to let the heat out in peFspi- ration.
 Above all must she teach him to be brave as well as tender, that fear at- tracts evil, while love and courage repel 1t. Never Piust she make the fatal mis- take of repeating in the child's hearing slch remarks as "He was frightened when baby by dog or eat. or horse" ss the case may be.

TIE SKATE ADMINIsTaAr1oN.

The Connecticut legislature at tts last session was called upon 10 deal win some important problems involving the financial condition of the state. There was the call for retrenchnent and there vas the need of providing revenue that would furnish the means for the carry ing on of state affairs without ptiing up the debt. This meant not a rush to sec how hlg boost could be made in taxes but to 50 carry on the business of the state in an economical and efficient manner that taxation could be kept at the lowest point. The endeavor was to meet present day conditions without passing the burdens along to future years.
 How well this was done is indicated by the report for the fiscal year which shows that there remains an unexpended balance in the treasury of more than S1,1s3,o0o with nc outstanding current indebtedness. II Is a showing to be proud of especially when t is also pointed out that of the bonded indebt- edness of s1e,ooo, ,ooe there Is already 3 sinking fund of moro than s1to0o.ooc to meet 1t. which clearly shows that Connecticut business and finances ars being admirably handled.
 It is q. showing which Is naturally expected to continue. but In view oi what has been accomplished ard tal1inf into consideration the fact that certair new taxes have been imposd within tn; past few years 1t lends encouragement to the belief that the affairs of thi commonwealth have been so well admin istered that there may be the chance foi the next general assembly to Top of some of them either in their entiret! or in amount. Certainly that is wha Is to be expected rather than wild or gy of expenditures.
 From session to session there havl come up those propositions which it wa realized could wait without doing an. harm. The fact that the state is nov getting mere revenue does not, however furnish the ground for believing tha all kinds of projects should be endorsed There is the pecketbcok of the taxpaye which deserves to get some considera 1 tien. It has been drawn On so heavii. that it is entitled to some relies iron 1 the strain.

STANDING IN OWN LIGHT.

Those who think that we sh6uld give recognition to the soviet government In Russia, pour our money into that coun- try and rely upon the promises of the boisheyilsi, which we know better than to do through experience. are not given much encouragement by the statements of Col. Edward F. Ryan, at the head of the American Red Cross relief work in that country when after a study of that situation for which he has been in a most favorable position he believes there is nothing to do but to let them stew in their own juice.
 It is his opinion that '"The only way seems to be to let the Russians aions politically. The soviets certainly have no intention of making any agreement which would benefit anyone but them. selves, and they have already proved themselves such liars, thieves and as, sassins that it is not likely that any other government can be deceived by them. The only thing to do is to lei them waiiow in their own mire. Thes will not evolve anything. The country must come back of it's. own evolution
 Colonel Ryan hasn't been converted tC boishevik methods. His experience doesn't react to the heneft of the sovie government. He in fact points out con ditions which give further support fol the position which has leng heen taker by this government relative to the rec egnttion of soviet Russia, or participa tion in conferences where It's represen tatives are present.

USING GASOLINE

Cleaning with gasoline should be done preferably sout of doors, or if indoors by daylight, and never in the vicinity Of hot stove, lamp or other flame. Care must be taken that the matches are not accidentally lighted in it's vicinity.
 First, shake and brush the arti- cles to remove dust and dirt, Remove rubber dress shields, or other pieces of rubber, as they will be spoiled. Tack small articles together and wash larger ones singly in an earth enware jar filled with gasoline and allow them to soak for an hour or more
 If the jar can be put in pan which is surrounded with hot water (but not on stove or near any open flannel, the gasoline will do it's work quicker ane better and will be less disagreeable fol the hands,
 After soaking work the articles about rubbing carefully between the fingers or rub the spots with a toothbrush ol nailbrush having fairly soft bristles.

CHILD TRAINING

Brotherhood in the Kindergarten and the
 Home
 Very important to the future welfare of the world is it that the children of today be taught the principles of justic. love and brotherhood in their widest and broadest sense Where then shall the foundation for these be laid if not in the kindergarten, where children of all nations come. many from homes where such principles are unknown? Teach the child then that everything that his lifI is his brother, to be treated with kindness, love and justice.
 The little girl who learns that her kite ty needs her loving care, needs sleen good food and careful handling, Is learn ing lessons in motherhood which she win never forget. The boy who learns that his rabbits and other nets, share many of his own needs, and that he stands in place of father to them Is being trained in parenthood, and when the child has learned that his animal pets have the same right to life and happiness that he himself has. 1t is not likely that he will treat his human companions uniustiy in after life.
 In the home should begin this teaching of which brotherhood is the keynote. The wise mother will not teach her child cru

 'gfhe Dictionary of National Biogra- phy," the standard English biographical dictionary, states that the place of her birth is Burn Hall, but gives the date as March 6, 1s0s The statement that one writer makes referring to the date of 1S00, is that another daughter must have been meant. and yet the authority mentioned states that Elizabeth was ''the eldest daughter of Edward Moulton."
 'The Century Dictionary of Names, " the New International Eneyclepaediar and most other authorities have settled upon ls0e and Coxhoe Hall as the place of Mrs BFowping's birth, but it seems very strange that through all the years that she was recognized as the greatest of English female poets. there should have been so much controversy as to ths date and place of her birth.

Famous Literary Mysteries
whon was Mrs. nrovninE Bernf

It seems strange, no doubt, to the av- craze reader that there should be any doubt as to the date of Elizabeth Barrett Browning's birth, as she lived at com paratively so recent q period.
 Yet for a long time there was . doubt as to when this greatest of English poet esses was born. and even she herself and her husband were never absolutely sure of the date
 The latest copy of the Encyclopedia Britannica says; She was born prob. ably at Coxhoe Hall, Durham, for this was the home of her father and mother for some time after their marriage in 1895. Her baptismal register gives the date of her birth as the eth of March, 1906, and that of her christening en the 10th of February. 1908. A long YAlsun- derstanding as to her age. whereby she was supposed to have been born three years later, was shared by her contetnp- oraries and even for a time by her Aus- band.
 John H. Ingram. in his life of Mrs | Browning, states that she was bern iE London on Saturday, March {, 1sos, and
 in an appendix to his book he sums ut some of the evidence on the Suh3eet. Mrs

HANDLING THE COAL STRIKE

 Today Is the day by which all deh. nite replies will be presented. It wil be the time for determining what Is go ing to be done concerning what nov appears to be e refusal to carry oui the suggested plan to reach an agree ment and to do so as quickly as pos sible. And a refusal that no considera ton Is being given to the position q the public. There is an irsistence upoi the part of those who have refused tt arbitrate that they should direct tn verdict if they are going to participate and if they cannot do that they will con tinue to refrain from production.
 Such an attitude puts the matter di rectly up to the government. 4 canno be overlooked that this threatens tn rest of the nation, and makes 1t appar ent that if those who have been rellet upon for the production of coal are n longer going to produce the much need sd fuel there are others who must D, called upon to de 1t.
 There are some of the mines whicl are in operation. There are others tha should be and for all those who ar willing to work there is good and sufii oisnt reason why the states or the gov . Hyament should furnish the necessaF, 2 protection. Where governors are s Eeak-kneed that they are unwilling fo political reaAons to maintain law an order there Is the place for the gov -- .ernment to do it's duty.
 Whatever course the government de efdes upon 1t cannot be said that it ha been precipitate in It's action. It has en |, deavcred to avoid hasty action and t appeal to reason but it cannot forge that t is relied upon to look out fo . the welfare of the public and not tha
