SHAKE HANDS

President Coolidge's cure for
war IS for the nations of the
earth to shake hands, to agree
that they will keep peace, then
to keep it. It appears like a very
simple prescription, and it will
work. The United States has start
ed but one war in 100 years and
that was done only when the
oppression of Spain became in
lolerable. True We have been in
war numerous times but had the
nations with whom we were at
war done what President Cool.
dge now advises, had their policy
9een what the policy of this coun
ry has been all these years, there
would have been no war. We will
light aggression but we will not
be the aggressor. And unless there
s an aggressor there will be no
var. 1t is the selfishness of ma
ions that makes war possible

SLEEP BY coLoRs

A British scientist has patent
ed a machine which it is claimed
induces sleep by means of colors.
It's purpose is to treat victims of
insomnia. The machine resembles
an ordinary radio set. The patient
place the machine on table
near his bed upon retiring. He
presses a switch which he holds in
his hand. This causes rays of a
dozen colors to flash from the ma.
chine in a carefully worked out
sequence. The effect of these col
ors, according to the inventor, will
produce sleep for even the most
restless person. In 10 or Is minutes
he has overcome some of the most
stubborn cases of insomnia. At
least this is what he claims. A
person can be put to sleep any
time during the day or night with
out harm whatever to his eyes or

HOW INGALLS, TOOK DEFEAT

In June, 1891 Senator John }.
ingalls, was asked if he felt as
defeated candidate.
His reply was characteristic,
and almost a classic.
1t follows:
when the returns came in and
saw how overwhelming my de-
feat was and what it meant to me
the end of 10 years service in
the American senate-pOssibly the
end of my public life, l confess
that agony was in my soul. 1t
was a beautiful day; everybody
was watching me to see how !
was going to take it-all my ia
mily. 1t was q tragic hour.
II went over to my pature and
walked through the withered wood.
There in a grassy glade, shelter
ed from the autumnal breeze, the
sun shining coldly down, | OPP
ened the windows Of my spirit
AMI let that whole thing in one me,
and commanded by fortitude. sat
there in that little dell until the
struggle was over, until was mas
ter of myself; until / could talk
of it with the same composure
as Of Napoleon's Waterloo. | never
had a pang after that. Even when
the gravel fell that sounded the
adjournment Of the senate at noon
March 4, 1891, and made me
private citizen, the pages bidding
me goodbye, the struggle of that
winter day in the wood did not
return. When | left the senate
chamber, which / have not visited
since, had no resentment.
"You are not yet an old man."
Ingalls, said to his interviewer,
and you will live to see the time
when man will call for his flying
machine, as he now calls for his
buggy The complaint of this time
rises from the imbecility of
those who do not comprehend what
are it's opportunities. The poor man
enjoys his home in life what a
King could not purchase with mon
ey thousand years ago.

The movie rights" are enriching
the estate of Mark Twain beyond
any anticipations the great hum
orist could have entertained. One
of his least important stories, it
is reported, was recently sold on
a six year basis for $4,000. The
profits to the estate from the
screen versions of 1.-THE Prince
and the Pauper," tom Sawyer"
and 'Huckelberry Finn" must have
been very large. Apparently Mark
Twain dead is worth far more
than Mark Twain ever was alive
and the motion picture, which has
been chiefly developed since he
died, has this thing to answer
for. Could Mark Twain have seen
any humor in the situation? =

Just appointed to the tariff com
mission to learn that Mr.. Bros
sard is a protege of Senator
Shoots and that, in fact, it was
the Utah senator who urged the
appointment. 1t becomes almost
unnecessary To adj that Mr., Bros
sard is high protectionist and a
particularly high protectionist
when it comes to a question of
duties on sugar and the interest
OF the producers of beet sugar.
Mr.. Brosssard takes the place of
w. S. Culbertson, formerly vice
chairman of the tariff commission
and widely regarded as its best
qualified member in point of tech
nical equipment and ability. But
Mr.. Culbertson was also regarded
as the leader of a troublesome
low tariff element on the commits
sion. After long buffeting and at
tack he was induced to accept
appointment as minister to Rou-
mania so as to get him out Of the
way. His replacement by Bros
sard is therefore proof of the
correctness of the charge that the
tariff commission was being
packed" in order that it might
support definite tariff rather
than function as an advisory body
of experts.
A Washington dispatch to the
New York Herald Tribune indi-
Gates that the Brossard appoint
ment will occasion another fight
in the Senate when it comes up
for confirmation and that there is
likely to be an increased demand
for the abolition of the tariff COM
mission. If the commission, by
pressure for the retirement Of its
members and their replaceme nt by
others of known views, is to be-
come mere tool of whatever ad
ministratiOn may be in pwer, it
would certainly be more economi-
cal, also more honest, to permit
the commission to go out of exis
tence. The party in power, if it has
a dependable majority, can enact
its traffic views into law, whe-
Their these views favor high
tariff or a low one. A President,
of whatever party, can similarly
exercise the discretionary author
ity which may be given him under
a flexible" tariff law. But there
is little to gain by staging the
farce of having Reed Smoot mani
pulate the tariff through the ap-
pointment Of a Brossard.-Spring
field Republican.
