Tho commercial world of the United Ktatos has paid almost no attention to the peculiar wantu of the Latin-American, Oceanic and Oriental people. When these distant countries are con sidered they are usually regarded as merely points for the unloading of an occasional American surplus.

Tho women of India Hke to get their cotton goods done up In paper boxes, each containing In addition a few pieces of colored glass and a gilt box.

When I was In Japan they told me of an enterprising American who had arrived with a new cure for corns. He had learned by correspondence that In all Japan no remedy for these inflic tions had ever been sold, and he con jured up a dream of fortune. But when ho got to the Sunrise Kingdom he discovered that the people are a barefooted race and had no corns to cure. This Is a grotesque Incident, but It Is one of many Instances of Amer ican failure to secure trade abroad sim ply because of our Ignorance of foreign conditions. The Wrong Anthem. One of tlie many diverting acci dents which marked the kaiser's re cent visit to Corfu Is related In a let tro from an officer of the British squadron which was present during tho emperor's stay. King George of Greece, after fall ing to meet tho kaiser In his yacht, through taking one channel while his Imperial guest steamed up tho other, landed In advance of him, In order to welcome him on Greek soil. His astonishment and. according to some observers, his annoyance was great when he was saluted with a barren rendering of tlie German an theml Tho luckless conductor of tho Greek band, who had failed to recog nize hla sovereign, received a severe personal reproof from the king of tho Helones. When he quitted the liner namburg at Naples the kaiser asked the officials of tho Hamburg-American Comany If tlie suite of rooms which had been specially fitted up for the Imperial voy age would bo left as they were. On being told that, on tho contrary, they would be dismantled, the em peror, according to tho Frankfurter Zeltung, remarked: "That Is a great pity, and a loss to tho company.
