In his "Age of Reason" he says: "It is certain, I think, that if the fleets of England, France and Holland were confederated they could propose with effect a limitation and a general dismantling of all the navies of Europe to a certain propor

END OF YELLOW FEVER The yellow fever map Is fast diminishing, especially since the Rockefeller foundation has thrown its splendid organization Into the fight, writes Herbert J. Spinden In the World's Work. A new danger came with the opening
of the Panama canal and the poslbil-:

life is such, so it is argued, ami the rush so great, that there is no time for the pursuit of letter writing as an
art. One can not read the letters, say of Horace Wal pole, without being conscious that something of beauty and
value has disappeared from our life.
Something must be done if an old and
gracious art Is not to be permanently lost, lost with the beJief that educa
tion and refinement really have some j
value and charm.

The demise is announced of the famous old pine tree of Karasaki, on the
shore of Lake Biwa, Japan, famous
in song and legend, visited every year
by thousands of pilgrims and regarded I
as a feature of one of the most beau-1
tlful spots of picturesque Japan. The tree Is known to have stood there for twelve centuries and it cast a shadow with an area of 4,2(K) square feet. It was not very high but broad. Just before It finally withered a very Imposing ceremony was heJu on the spot which consisted of transferring the spirit of the old tree to a young one which was planted near by.
