The time saved by changes in the trade routes of the world that will follow the opening of the Panama Canal is exciting the attention of nav igation interests the world over. Statistics to show how great will be the saving are thus given In The Hansa, the organ of the Hamburg shipowners: Present Miles distance, saved.

Phrase : f : By PHILANDER. C. KNOX. i Secretary of State of the United States ' OT only has the United States been rewarded on many occa sions by success in its efforts to bring about peaceful accom modations between disputant nations ; but, thanks to our own prosperity, we have been potential in contributing to un build the prosperity of others. Prosperity, like manv other things, FOLLOWS THE LINE OF LEAST RESISTANCE, and finan cial embarrassment may truthfully be regarded as one of the lines of greatest resistance. Where our financial interests have been induced to make this line of resistance less beset with difficulties the department of state has stood ready to give the parties OPPORTUNITY TO GET TO GETHER We did this with signal advantage to the Dominican Re public.

" Photo by American Preaa Association. AMONG the familiar figures to be seen in Washington, which preserves many of the characteristics of cities of less than half Its size, are L Secretary and Mrs. Philander C. Knox as they take their ''walks abroad." The secretary la a good deal of an outdoor man. being a golf enthusiast, and is devoted, as Is Mrs. Knox, to his country home at his toric Valley Forge, for the Knoxes have three homes one in Washington, one In Pittsburgh and one in the picturesque Revolutionary hamlet.

English firms are said to be making arrangements to open coaling stations at Nukulofa, the capital of the Friendly Islands, and on Pitcairn Island. Of course foreign shipowners are asserting . that traffic through the canal is dependent upon the rates to be fixed. At the same time the sav ing in time is a very important fac tor that will not be very easily over looked. CURE FOR DRUNKENNESS. A cure for intoxication is the latest promulgation of the ever versatile Dr. Harvey W. Wiley. The doctor believes that if every man who drinks were cempelled to to take out a license there would be a good deal less' of the drink evil. "If I had my way," he says, "we would stop charging saloonkeepers huge fees. 'Why not impose nominal fees and regulate them? Make every person who wants to drink pay a dol lar a year for a license. Then let him "',' ' X r I V- f A Ct J " 'ii 1 present his license number and pay one cent revenue tax on every drink. Make himrite his name on a slip of paper each time and if the saloon keeper sells him too often, revoke the latter "s license.' Theoretically, the doctor's plan looks very "good. - .We are fearful, how ever, that an attempt at it3 practical application would end ir. failure. While it. is '.rat that the scheme might discourage many people from going into saloons, it would not destroy their feeling of thirst.. And thirsty folk have always had the knack of being able to satisfy their hankerings. Mr. Bryan says Governor Wilson has been helped by - Henry Wattef son's attack. If it doesn't a'd him in a greater measure than the Colonel's assaults upon Mr. Bryan himself well the governor will not have great occasion for rejoicing. Neither CoL HarveL Col. Watter- son Governor Wilson nor Mr. Bryan is included in the "Forty Immortals" selected by the "National Institute of Arts and Letters. Yet they are mak ing political history every day. These omission will undoubtedly create a demand for revision. There is a strong suspicion that in the case of soq-in-law Nicholas Long worth the rule "Father does all the talking for the family" does not ap ply. "Leap year says - Sly via , Pank hurst, "is nothing to me." The charm ing Sylvia rightfully proceeds upon the theory that what is worth having is work asking for. That Chicago professor who says that the smoke from a single cigar will kill 50000 germs certainly put his campaign gifts to good use... Our idea of the useless in educa tion is the plan introduced at the Uni versity of Wisconsin of teaching girls how to rest. REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS. Metta B. and Joseph Evans to Mrs T. C.

The employer soon begins to feel that there are other things which are of a great deal more importance to the employee than her work. " - It is the little things which make or do not make the business woman a sutcess. One of the first things to be lea died by a young' woman Is that of be'ng attentive and showiur she feels an interest in the work she Is taking np and is not interested aloue in the s)ary she will receive. It certainly" does not pay a business woman to tell of her great, ability and merits. Time will show The sterling qualities she possesses as nothing else can. Above all things, there is uothiup; more disgusting than to hear girls con tinually talking of the opposite sex. Don't do it. girls. Clothes are another thUg which i not given enough of the nght kind of thought - The young woman, accom panied by a friend, will gr- into a store and try on a garment. Thi- friend will bein something like this - "Oh, how pretty you loik in thntr or "That is certainly nifty on you!" and this will be repeated a few times or something similar until a garment Is bought, and often the purchaser is not satisfied, but thinks if the gariijenf makes her look so beautiful she should not do without it. ' Always look for something practical, durable and he coming and decide just what you want before going into a store and don't take anything else. Always pWU for something which will look ne.-iHy as well in six months after you bi.y it aa It does the first day. Then the way clothes are taken are of is as important as, if not more im portant than, the buying. Always ki-ep dresses, skirts and coats on hangers when not being worn and have a case to slip over them and always keep them brushed well.' is ar: excellent plan to have a cleaning fluM on hand In a bottle and look over ea!h garmeut every nisht when ta&ing it off and not let the spots accumulate. After a season for a certain weight of clothing is over take n big box. label it and put all of thut weight into this box. It is well to have three or four big box as. one for summer cloth ing, fall, wluter and spring clothing. The Fad of a Princess. Princess Patricia has that rare and father dangerous talent for caricature which may be described as satire of the pencil, and lately she has been amusing her family circle with some rather daring' "take-offs" of them selves. She represents the Duke of Con naught (her fatheri in a violent rage, wearing tlt uniform of a field marshal and callir out "Where's my horse 7" This sketch ia framed and hung up in the billiard room at Balmoral. The princess colors her sketches and gives them a dainty and dashing finish, which makes them excellent pictures. apart from their value as portraits. Just occasionally, of course, she has managed to get into trouble with them. What caricaturist does not? HUMAN AFFAIRS. , If a great change is to be made in human affairs the nrnd? of men will be fitted to it. The general opinions and feelings will draw thatv way. Every fear, every hooe, will forward it a-xl then they who per sist in opposing this mighty current in human affairs will appeal rather to resist the decrees of providence itself than the decrees of men.
