EFORE the Spanish-American war a visit to Havana, Cuba, was something of an adven ture, and not altogether a safe one because of the prevalence of yellow fever. But the American sanitary engineers who followed the army of occupation cleaned up the city and the island, and Havana is now one of the most healthful places in America. In recent years, too, the transportation facilities for reaching the West Indies have been so revolu tionized that the trip no longer re quires unusual endurance or courage, being made easily and speedily in lux ury. Though Havana has been to a great extent Americanized, it has not lost its individual charm. In all the nu merous changes that have taken place in the last dozen years no attempt has been made to obliterate those characteristics which were both pic turesque and innocent. It is true that if the tourist desires to ride in a volante. the native carriage, he has to make a request, otherwise he is more than likely to take a motor car. As, generally speaking, the roads around Havana are good, these little motor tours are very agreeable. In this connection it is useful to know that one may bring into the island his own motorcar without paying duty by giving the necessary bond that it is not for sale or for rent. Facilities for storing and running the car are entirely modern. B S t ill a F o re ig n C ity. Havana is still a foreign city, so far as the eye discerns; and It may also be said that it is foreign so far as language is concerned. However, the English-speaking tourist finds no diffi culty in making himself understood or in having his ideas as expressed in his own choice Anglo-Saxon in terpreted. English is spokjn almost everywhere. In the recently erected public build ings, such as banks, railroad stations and similar enterprises, there is seen sented at Malecon, the capital’s famef drive and promenade along the sea wall. In the daytime the chairs which one rents for a small sum at night are free. Theaters also are open in the evening, and the ubiquitous mov ing picture houses are also in opera tion. Havana is a city of plazas, prom enades, colonnaded buildings, churches and palaces. It is all very European and yet there is just a touch that makes the American feel that while he is in a strange country he is at home and among friends. Sugar is the island's greatest commodity. The cane once planted continues for near ly a score of years to give three good crops of cane each year. It is now possible for the tourist to visit the sugar country from Havana, and the railway also will take him into the heart of the Vuelta Abajo country in Pinar del Rio province, where the finest cigar tobacco in the world, the kind that goes into the real Habana, is grown. All of Cuba is entrancing in the ro mantic and entirely foreign landscape it presents wherever one goes. The trips from Havana are almost illimit able. The island has several good railroad systems, and almost, every part of it that is likely to prove inter esting to a tourist is tapped by one or another of the transportation com panies. START ON THE WRONG ROAD One W a y o f A c c o u n t in g f o r F o o lis h W a y in W h ic h S o m e M e n W a s t e T h e ir L iv e s. W e can ofely wonder at the silly way in which some men waste their lives. One day it is a man who enters a bank, shooting this way and that, scoops the money into a bag while the employees hide, leaps into a stolen motor car, enacts the robbery again I d another bank, und at last, when cor True To Life. "W hat’s all that noise upstairs?” led the mother, *‘I thought you ire playing house.' 'We are, mamma,” the little daugh- replied. "Johnny is the papa, and has just come home from the store, arguing with him about money ters.” Paris.—The dreadful effect of the war on the spirit of humor Is lllus trated In the exhibition of caricature« organized by the ‘‘Humorists' for the benefit of their wounded comrades and of the widows and orphans ol artists killed in action. The French genius for making fun of everythin# has disappeared and the enemy is not seen comically but horribly. The sub jects are difficult for caricature, con sisting for the most part of alleged atrocities. The deteriorating influence of the subjects on style is seen abundantly in the contributions of almost all ol ¡the caricaturists and Illustrators. Foraln tries to avoid topical slavish ness by using side themes set at the front and BUggesti-.g amusing discom forts like rain, wind and mud in Flan ders. One is a sketch of two dirty soldiers in a front-line trench reading Paris papers, with the remark that France will be saved If her civil population hold good. Another is one of a sentry calling to the driver of an automobile ambulance stuck in the mud to haul down the Red Cross flag In order to escape bombardment. The large number of English carica tures shown are better in spirit than the French, though most of them are bad drawings. The subjects are char acteristic of English humor, “ bulls” by Irish corporals, recruiting absurdi ties, front discomforts and some amus ing notions of German types which appear to be based on knowledge and a certain physical sympathy for fat ness, roundness, redness and square ness as expressed in the uniformed Teuton. The tone is genial through out, and never sardonic in the grandi ose fashion sought by the French draftsmen. The trouble with the Eng lish caricatures is that they show a deadly identity of style, variety ap pearing only In the choice of humor ous incident. The sculpture shown is as poor as most topical or humorous sculpture usually it, far and away the best ex hibits being champagne bottles dressed up as drunken German sol diers. Various heroic episodes from the official communiques are done Into sculpture, notably the famous Incident of the zouave prisoners who yelled to their comrades to fire when the ad vancing Germans used them as a shield. A few sketches by soldiers actually In the trenches are of interest be cause they give a vivid notion of the dirtiness and lack of picturesqueness of trench warfare. Sem's “ Crown Prince" Is the familiar death’s head. The motive of stolen clocks Is rather more amusingly developed than most of the other stock traditions about German behavior on campaign and a few of the Jokes about German lack of taste In woman's dress are well aimed.

B e a u t if u l C u b a n VÄ l l l y in tbr architecture a new note; but In the older structures, with which Ha vana is principally furnished, the old Spanish architecture, with something added, a something that is found in the greater part of Spanish-America, the true characteristic of the capital is found The narrow streets, with their still narrower sidewalks, are lined with stores or residences of two stories. The first floor of the resi dences especially is arcaded in front, and over this extends a balcony on the second floor. It is all typical of the tropics, the streets being too nar row to permit of awnings, and these permanent shelters from the sun's rays and from the heavy rains in the summer, or rainy season, proving probably more effective and conven ient. The impression that the visitor re ceives at once, and the one that he takes away with him, is that Havana is a beautiful foreign city. There is an sir of comfort and of luxurious in dolence in the place, but for all that It is now a very busy commercial port, but the population is not so large as to crowd the town, and the busy ¿cenes are chiefly witnessed at the docka, where ships are being loaded or unloaded, or at terminals of the railroads. It Is an admirable place to take a rest or to go sightseeing. An E v e n in g in -H a va na . If you desire to see the Inhabitants of Havana enjoying themselves you must see them in the evening. Then the Central park will be filled with atrollers, or with thousands seated on little chairs which they rent for five cents Spanish silver, listening to the concert by either the Municipal band or the Artillery band, both noted or ganizations in Cuba; and much the same ki“ d of brilliant scene la pro- nered, kills a policeman and is hlmsell killed. Enough of adventure, excite ment and tragedy to last a lifetime crowded into a few hours, with mur der at the end. But what for? The chances of the man getting away were so remote that only a fool would have undertaken the job. The next day it Is in Kansas City. Tw o men rob a shopkeeper of diamonds and money and try to escape by running through crowded streets, a silly and futile thing to undertake. The end of their folly will be years and years of hard work, bard living, lonesomeness and heartbreaking monotony in prison. The man who undertakes to live by bis wits, to get money without work ing for it, is foreordained to failure. And yet there are always men start ing on that road. In general they are men who failed in youth to learn the lesson of industry. They got the Idea that the end of life was to get on with as little effort as possible. The boys who are spared all work by Indulgent parents, who expect everything to be done for them and to do nothing for anybody else, are on the wrong road. — Kansas City Star.

Consultants who formerly made 150,000 a year or so. find them selves earning little or nothing. As a consequence they are volunteering their services to the government in such numbers that the authorities are barely able to cope with the supply. The reason for this loss of practice is said to be that the persons who cherished imaginary illnesses in times o f peace have forgotten their hypo chondria since the war began. M o d ifie d .
