Is Disease a Crime ?

Not very long asro. a popular magazine

piioiisliPd an editorial article in wnien the writer assorted, in substance, that all

disease should bo regarded as criminal.

Certain it i, that much of the sickness and suffering of mankind is due to the violation of certain of Nature's laws.

But to Bay that all sickness should be regarded as criminal, must appeal to every reasonable individual as radically

wrong. It would be harsh, unsympathetic, cruel, yes criminal, to condemn the poor, weak, over-worked housewife who sinks under the heavy load of household cares ani burdens, and suffers from weaknesses, various displacements of pelvic organs and other derangements peculiar to her sex. Freouent beirlnr of children, with its exacting demands upon the system, couple J with the care, worry and labor of rerintrj6 large family, is often the cause of weaknesses, derangements and debility which ire aggravated by the many household crs. and the bard, and rterer-endlng work bi-h the mother Is called upon to perforrrf Dr. I'lerce. the maker of that world-farrup remedy for woman's peculiar weaknes and Ills Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription says that one of the greatest obstacles he cure of this class of maladies Is the farr that the poor. over-work-i housewife ran ig,t get the needed rest from her many houMBiold cares and labor to enable her to 5ni from the tue of his " Prescription " itsulljFenelits. It Is a matter of frequent explrief-.e, he says.

With those suffering from efc-aapsus. anteTerslon and retroversion of Ira e uterus or other displacement of the wlanly organs, it is very necessary that, in aJditlon to taking bis "Favorite Prescription '' they atmtaln from being very much, or for long periods, on their feet. All heavy lifting or straining of any kind should also be avoided. As much out-door air as possible, with moderate, light exercise Is alo very important.

(Fublishcrs Press. Washington. Dec. 12. The ability

of a government navy yard to turn out

warships equal in all respects to those built under contract Is maintained by

Rear Admiral W. L. Capps, chief of the bureau of construction of the

navy, in his annual report. He urges that at least one yard on the Pacific coast and one on the Atlantic coast, when practicable, should be given a reasonable proportion of new con

struction work, in order that yard3

may always be available for any work the government may desire to undertake. Reference is made to the bat

tleship Louisiana and Connecticut, the

latter constructed In the New York navy yard, Admiral Capp3 remarking at the time of the delivery of the Connecticut the actual condition of work on the vessel was practically identical with the Louisiana, bo far as concern

ed all matters not connected with armor and armament. Admiral Capps admits the oft-repeated charge that Jt costs less to build a warship by contract by reason

of shorter hours of labor, paid holidays, vacations, etc., granted to navy yard employes, but he believes, nevertheless, that the government should always be prepared to turn out Its own ships in times of emergency. The lack of suitable docking facilities at Norfolk and Mare Island is commented on as being especially embarrassing to the bureau, as no battleship of any class can be docked at either of these yards. He recommends the building of an additional dry dock, capable of docking the largest vessels

at both the Norfolk and Pensacola navy yards, and that provisions should be made for enlarging and rebuilding a dry dock at the New York navy yard. The development of the Norfolk navy yard to meet the requirement of a fleet as regards construction and repair is recommended for special consideration. Appointment of a special board to consider matters' relating to the per

sonnel of the corps of naval constructor!, the report says, is In contemplation. While recording the fact that the proportion of casualties, by reason of death and resignation, continues to be large. Admiral Capps says the department's policy of years In assigning for a special course instruction graduates of the naval academy of suitable attainments, with a view to their ultimate transfer to the con

struction corps to fill vacancies, will

in time make the effect of such casual

ties less serious. The excessive

amount of work devolving upon the bureau. Admiral Capp adds, comoined

with Its limited number of officers, re

suited In the gradual impairment of the vitality and in some instances complete breakdown of officers whose

services were especially valuable.

The report speaks at length of the

work on new and old vessels during

the past year and states that prelimin

ary work was begun on designs of the 20-000-ton battleship authorized at the

last session of congress.

Admiral Capps doubts the expedi

ency of repairing warships at foreign

stations, and says that both economy

and efficiency will result from carry

ing out all large repairs and overhaul

ings of naval vessels in navy yards within the continental limits of the

United States wherever practicablo.

tPublishers Press. Seattle. . . .he latest Issue of the Kcbe Herald received here gives the vicv of Viscount Hayashai, Japanese foreign minister, in regard to the question of Japanese citizenship in the United States. The Herald says: "In accordance with the arrangement mentioned in our last issue, deputations waited on Viscount Hayashai, the foreign minister, to convey to him the views of the party in regard to the anti-Japanese movements in San Francisco. Addressing the deputations separately the viscount assured them that the Japanese and United States governments were entirely at one in their views as to the San Francisco difficulty. Tokyo au

thorities are limiting their action to providing the United States informa

tion needed to enable them to arrive

at a settlement as soon as possible. The viscount also said the general public opinion in the United States is fully in agreement with the attitude

of the general government. In conclusion Hayashai said he believed the United States authorities would take

advantage of this opportunity to re

vise the federal constitution, if such a course was found to be necessary."

led pp to Proctor's arreaL

nini, secretary of the papal nunciature at Paris. Prosecutions were begun against the ultramontaine abbes of the Church of St. Pierre du Grosse Caillou, St. Augustine and St. Roche, where the greatest resistance to the taking of inventories occurred, and it was decided to immediately take over the buildings belonging to the ecclesiastics, stop the pensions of the clergy, compel aspirants to the priesthood to fulfill their military obligations, and, if necessary, treat the clergy as subjects of a foreign power. This constitutes a sufficient demonstration of the

spirit with which the government In

tends to meet resistance.

The reception of Premier Clemen-

ceau's speech In the chamber of deputies also shows that he has parliament

at his back. Nevertheless, M. Clemenceau was careful to say that there was

still time for Catholics to conform to

the law. That the rank and file of the liberal

Catholics disapprove of the intransi

gent attitude of the authorities at Rome is evidenced by the feet that the editor of th Renaissance, Felix Robin, of his own Initiative, filed with the prefect of police application under the public meetings law of 18S1 for permission to hold erligious meetings in all the churches. Cardinal Richard, archbishop of Paris, at first declined to approve of M. Robin's action, but he changed his mind. The application being accepted and granted, whether approved or disapproved by the clergy, will legalize the holding of religious services and render unnecessary any proceedings against parish priests or vicars. It turns out that the papers seized at the papal nunciature placed in the government's hands Important evidence if open war is to take place. They include, besides diplomatic records covering correspondence exchanged before the rupture with the Vatican, recent instructions from Cardinal Merry Del Val, the papal secretary of state, a mass of letters from prelates all over the world, and letters in the handwriting of deputies of the Right party.

Publishers Tress. Washington. Dec. 12. The immediate result of the memorandum of Secretary Taft outlining the procedure to be followed by enlisted men of the Twenty-flfth infantry who were discharged without honor was the visit to the department of six discharged men, who applied for re-enlistment, declaring that they were Innocent of all complicity in and knowledge of

the affair at Brownsville. The men had no documentary evidence to present establishing this fact, but their applications were submitted and re

ceived on the assurance that such testimony will be forthcoming at once.

Secretary Taft, who will pass on

the cases of the discharged men before taking them to the president, said

nothing beyond receiving the applications for re-enlistment will be done until replies of the president and himself to the' senate inquiries are sub

mitted. He also said the evidence furnished by Gilchrist Stewart, who is

acting for a number of the men, will be gone into carefully and taken into

account in the final adjudication of the matter.

How

the Proposal Question Was Solved

THE diffident young man wanted to propose to his girl.- but for the life of him he didn't know how to go about it. He read books on the subject and sought information from men who had experience, and., while .the theories were admirable, in every instance he found that the practice thereof was a different thing. He was walking with her one evening, thinking over these things, when

her shoe became untied. She stuck out her pretty little foot

with a smile and looked down at it. He fell on his knees and tied the lace. Then he walked on with her. The shoe became untied again. The third time it happened he was ready as before. "See If you can't tie a knot that won't come undone," she said as he worked away at it. "If I can't I know a man who can," he said. "Do you want him to tie It?" she asked coquettlshly. "Yes." he replied. She jerked her foot away. He smiled to himself.

"It's the parson," he said. And he rose to his feet and finished the proposal. San Francisco Star.

On the First Trip. Among the passengers on an Atlantic liner when she left New York recently was a charming young woman from St. Louis who was making her first trip abroad. The vessel had not proceeded far when the fair passenger approached the captain and said: "The ship appears to be stopping, captain. Why should we stop here?" "We stop here to let the pilot off," was the reply. "To let the pilot off?" exclaimed the young woman in a tone of polite incre

dulity. "Do you mean to say that the pilot doesn't mean to cross the ocean

with us and direct the course?" "I mean just that," answered the

captain.

The fair passenger pandered for a

bit. Then, smiling as if a bright idea had occurred to her, she added, "Oh. I
