ed warning that the United States
must fortify heavily her Pacific coast
and island possessions because of the
'menaeing position of Japan"
Senator Harris had just returned
from survey of the Pacific as a
member of the senate committee on
Notifications and said that "chances
Of war with Japan are greater than
with any other country"
The senator further said, al
though the majority of japanese do
not want war. there is strong party
IN that country which makes Japan
the greatest menace to America.
There is an element that hates the
United States, and the fact that the
Japanese emperor has he power TO
declare war furnishes a serious situa-
ton"
He advocated heavy fertilization
of the Hawaiian Islands, stating an
case of war between Japan and the
United States, the possession of the
Hawaiian Islands would probably de-
eide the conflict"

HEALING ART OF OLD CHINESE
Abundant Proof That They Were Fa- mliar With Anesthesa Many
 Thousands of Years Ago.

The artificial induction of painless ness by narcotic draughts was tradi- tionally known in ancient times, writes Dr. Charles Balance In the London Lancet
 The Chinese were acquainted with general anesthesia thousands of years ago. It is related of Surgeon Hoathe in the Third century A. D. that he performed amputation, trephining and other major operations by it's aid.
 Doctor Browne relates two cases of anesthesa taken from Persian manuscript. The first story concerns Aristotle and an Indian surgeon named Sarnab. An earwig had entered the patients ear and attached itself to the brain. Aristotle gave the patient the drug so that he became uncon- scious while Sarnab trephined the skull. This was excellent treatment.
 It is now well known that living for eign bodies may produce otitis and meningitis. In the second case the op- eration was Caesaran section.

BACK TO GRECIAM HISTORY
full Valley, Abode of Happiness and Rural Simplicity.

In ancient Greece, the province of Arcadia was the central and most mountainous portion of the Pelopo- nesus, or southernmost end of the Grecian peninsula, peopled by peas ants of a peaceful and distinctly lov- able disposition. So famous did this province become for the simplicity and innocence of it's inhabitants that it's name became symbol of happiness and rural simplicity. later to be adopted by poets-among them Sir Philip Sidney-as the foundation for romances, in which this type of life played q leading part.
 Arcadia, however, Is not to be con- fused with Acadia, the name which the early French settlers gave to what is now known as Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, and the scene of the earlier portion of LOngfellOw's Evan geline," in which the reader is re- ouested to "List to tale of love in Acadia, the home of the happy" This name was derived directly from the French, and while the "men whose lives glided on like rivers that watered the woodlands" were somewhat sim liar in their pursuits and their sur roundings to the Greek Arcadians, the names themselves have nothing in com mon.

Highlanders at one time declined to partake of what they called 'feath- cred flesh" or "White flesh" and hare and rabbit.

 In the West Highlands some peo- ple will not eat mackerel, and until recently others on the Solway would not touch skate.

Catfish and ling are still tobooed in some districts. Eels are called devilfsh. They are supposed to originate from the hairs of horses mnnes and tails that had fallen into nools or rivers. Those who eat eel become mad and set out to fight with wild horses, according to superstition.

NO one ever looked less of A hero | lhah MT. Jack DOrkin as he stopped HIS rlckety machine and hied him to .he iadys rescue. For months his | nair mad not felt the touch of shears. HIS clothes, of an indescrihable color ana no fit at all, were sadly in need or repair. And his face was streaked | Wlth dust and precipitation.
 But if Mir. Dorkin's brain was small ms heart was big. If his countenance was grimy with dirt, his soul was white as the driven snow; md though HIS hands might be grubby his mind was thoroughly clean. He looked upon the fainting lady with the deepest com passion. From one of the mysterious recesses of the skeleton machine, he produced can, procured water from nearby spring with which he layed Alicia's face, and was rewarded when pair Of velvety brown eye. opened and a tinge of color frightened the pale cheeks
 Then and there Jack Dorkin was a changed man. Then and there he dis covered that no longer would he be satisfied to live alone; no longer be able to boast that woman was un- necessary to his placid existence. Out or his compassion was born love, pure, and sweet, and holy. for a woman he had seen but once.
 You feelin' better, ma'am?" he asked, anXiously.
 Alicia looked up. She saw in his hon. est blue eyes respectful pity, an ad- miration that amounted to worship. a deep earnestness, and homely chival- ry. His rags and tatters, his long, un- kempt hair, mattered nothing. Jack Dorkin, three miles from a postoffice and railway station, had become a knight, a Galahad, rescuer of dis tressed maiden.
 Thank you, yes. I feel better. Will you-I wanted to ask you before could you take me to the Bell place at Green Corners?'
 Jack could, and would. She gave him her hand. He helped her into his i''t'iii" "' N"l anu d uccp ptaCe Setlleh on the soul of Alicia Brooks. The city, with its insane clamor, seemed very far away She didn't care if she never saw 1t again.
 Jack wooed the lady of his heart in his own way Not with flowers, con- monly supposed to be the language of romance but with far more substan- tial and useful gifts. Many and various were the offerings placed before the shrine of love. Sometimes a few special eggs; sometimes a pound of delicious butter; often a dish of care fully selected berries, with cream from his own dairy. And once in a while he brought a slab of bacon.
 At the end of the summer Alicia had quite regained her health, and was happier than she had ever hoped to be.
 "Your're sure, darling" said Jack, when she had accepted his shyly ut tered proposal, that you'll never get tired of me and want to go back to the city?"
 Alicia pondered Would she ever want to leave the green of the earth, the gold of the sun, and Jack? She shuddered, and kissed him, suddenly and emphatically. You don't need to doubt me, Jack dear. I'll never go back"

O. 1922. by Mcclure Newspaper svndtca+a
 Miss Alicia Brooks had lived where the roar of the elevated was loudest all of her 20 years. Ten of those years had been devoted to washing dishes in busy restaurant, with deep content ment to herself and satisfaction to her employer. With three square meals A day, comfortable nest-egg In the bank. and admirers In plenty, Miss Alicia had found her environment a pleasant enough place. The chatter of crockery, the clamor of the crowd. the traffic on the avenue and the noise of the elevated had been music to her ears.
 But one morning she woke from n fitful sleep to find that the trains screeched and screamed at her unbear ably, that the clang of the cars had lost its cheerful rhythm. and that the smell of the hot studs when she washed the dishes produced an unpleasant sen sation at the pit of her stomach. She fainted at her work that day.
 "Too much noise and dish-washing, said the doctor, brusquely, after his ex- animation. "Tll give you the address of farm my niece visited last year. Let's see, where Is that, now? An, here it is 'Mr. Silas Bell, Green Cor ners.' There you'll be far enough re- moved from civilization to get on your feet again. Good-by, and good luck to you"
 Jack DOrkin had lived in the solitude of the woods so long that he could not bear the noise of Green Corners. Once, after bringing supply of butter for shipment to the city, a storm had risen, and entirely against his will he had spent the night under the roof of old Silas Bell and his wife. Jack never forgot those few hours. Every once in a while the whistle of a distant freight train could be heard. Some times the crying of a child in the house of a neighbor a quarter of q mile or so away broke his rest AIso the Bells had telephone. Altogether it had been very disturbing. He was certainly relieved when the storm was

This Time 1t Is for the Meanest Man, and He Surely Has "Some"

Another ''meanest man" has been found. He was discovered in a north bound elevated express. He had re- mained seated although woman stood swaying on a strap in front of him. The train was standing at the Fuller ton avenue station when he jumped to his feet, apparently realizing sud denly that his destination had been reached. He started for the door.
 When the man quit his seat it was, logically, taken by the woman. Not for long, however, did she hold it. A second later he was back-obviously having spotted the station name through the open door.
 Pardon me-" he said, that wasn't my station"
 And he allowed the woman- to rise and give him the seat.-Chicago Jour nal.
