TROUBLE NEARER?
Japan has taken another step In the game that is making more apparent its Intention to be prepared for a con
flict with the United States. By rais
ing the Japanese flag over the island
of Pratas, a small coral-enclosed harbor 120 miles from the Philippines, Ja
pan has secured a new base from which Its navy can operate in case of war
with us. In view of this latest action,
and despite the peace assurances of
some of the highest American and Jap
anese officials, it can be readily seen
that Japan is preparing for the day
when it shall try to wrest from our control the Philippines, and, Maybe,
the Hawaiian Islands.
The seizure of this Island is all the
more significant, coming as It does, at
a time when the United States Is pre
paring to send a large part of its fleet
to-Ahe Pacific ocean. Doubtless Japan will. give out that It Is only taking the
island for commercial purposes, but in
the light of what the island is, no ex
cuse at all would be better. It is ab
solutely incapable of any use other
than that of a naval station. It brings the Japanese to the very doors of the Philippines and gives them a vantage point for a quick descent upon Manila in case hostilities should break out. The only practical answer the United States can make to this new move on the part of Japan is to make an appropriation at the next session of congress that will provide for the building of a number of first class battleships. The stronger our navy the greater our guarantee of peace from all quarters and especially from Japan. Japan realizes that it enjoys an advantage over us at present, owing to our woeful lack of a navy In the Pacific ocean. But If we remedied that lack, Japan would think twice before undertaking to
tackle us, weighed down as It Is by an I
enormous debt that would greatly handicap it in carrying on a prolonged war. Trouble is undoubtedly nearer on account of this latest action of Japan, but it can be removed almost entirely if congress has the good sense to back President Roosevelt in his work of increasing the United States navy;

THE PAY CAR.
FREIGHT INTERCHANGE. The Pennsylvania railroad seems to be following the same course in Its dealings with the citizens of Richmond that has caused so much 111 feeling towards corporations and railroads in the past on the part of citizens of other parts of the country. Hiding under a cloak of apparent willingness to assist In the interchange of freight with the C, C. & L. railroad, it Is in reality doing all it can to prevent it It is essential to the further progress of Richmond that we have interchange of freight between these two railroads, and the action of the Pennsylvania is directly against our Interests. Richmond la a very good patron of the Pennsylvania and contributes its share toward that road's dividends. But Richmond is not In existence simply as a dividend feeder for the Pennsylvania or any other railroad. Our growth and development warrant that even the Pennsylvania should heed our demands for freight interchange. The state railroad commission is now considering the further reasons why the Pennsylvania does not want freight interchange. But the commission, fortunately for Richmond and Its commercial Interests, is already favorable to the interchange and has once ordered the Interchange made. In case the Pennsylvania shows by its future action that it will not grant the Interchange, then the commission will order the case into the courts and. while this will all consume much valuable time, it will ultimately end In the victory of Richmond and freight Interchange. , But the Pennsylvania, at a time especially when railroads and corporations are under fire as they have never been before, shows poor Judgment In adding fuel to the fire by refusing to co-operate with Richmond and help its further growth by the valuable factory sites that will be addif the interchange goes through.

Any Weak Person can gain strength on Grape-Nuts

London is to have a dress exhibition next February, at which dresses, furs and laces to the value of at least $."x,D0O wil be displayed- :
A member of the Chicago Press Club, says she obtained so much benefit from Grape-Nuts food that she wishes to offer a voluntary testimonial: "I had an illness which reduced me greatly, when convalescent I wanted a great deal to eat, but nothing seemed to satisfy me. "Very soon after a meal I felt that sense of emptiness, 'an aching void as it were, though really not hungry. The fact is, the food I was then taking was not properly assimilated and I was improperly nourished, which accounted for my lack of vitality and weak condition, constant exhaustion and inability to gain flesh. "I started in on Grapo-Xuts food, husband laughing good humoredly at the time. I ate it with cream, and the result was most surprising. After the first dish of It I felt a great sense of satisfaction. I have gained several pounds, and the old gnawing Is gone entirely. I retire and sleep well all night, whereas I used to lie awake in the night and was unable to sleep again until I had taken some sort of food. "There's a Reason. "Husband Is much surprised at the result and tried Grape-Nuts himself. He is delighted with the food. Best wishes for the great food and ; its makers." Read The Road to Wellville, in pkgs. Some physicians call it a "health classic.
Ita Coin Rack, Crammed With Yellow Boys, a Tempting Sight. The good old days are gone. In these heathen times railroad men are paid by check. Of the pay car and its luxurious travels C. F. Carter writes In the American Magazine as follows: "A metal coin rack crammed to the muzzle with three denominations of yellow boys, flanked with silver, and on the desk behind it a very large wooden tray, on which were long columns of yellow coins d'ye ever see anything po pretty in all your lifel No wonder your eyes stuck out until you could have used them for hat pegs. "And all the time an exquisitely musical 'tinkle, tinkle, clink-clink welled up from coin rack and counter in response to the calls of the assistant paymaster. Talk about Beethoven's symphonies! "If it were not for that strong wire screen jou could have touched that fascinating tray. For the inflnitesimal fraction of a second a wicked thought flitted through your brain. Then you almost fainted as your roving eye stared down the barrel of a monstrous
revolver. It was only in a rack," but it was within easy reach of the paymaster's hand and most eloquent for all that. Half a dozen of its fellows lay In the handiest places, while as "many
Winchesters lying on tables and set tees came in strong on the chorus.
"Hurriedly your vagrant wits busied
themselves with all the Sunday school
lessons you had ever learned. As your
subconsciousness perceived that the head of the road's secret service department stood on the platform with his eyes intent on every man In the car at once, while Conductor Linkenpin stood on the ground outside very much alert, with his coat tail bulging suggestively, your bosom swelled with pride over the watchful care the company had exercised to bring its honest
toilers their hard earned money."

Power of the Waves.
The power of waves, says M. Brou-
nln in La Nature, is the sum of two efforts, one dynamic and due to the orbital movement of the water particles, the other static and dependent on the height of the center of gravity of the mass raised above its normal position. Theory and observation seem to show that the total power of waves is divided equally between these static and dynamic effects. If a body of watei meets the wall of a structure there is a shock, and this Is most violent at tht water surface, diminishing with the depth. At the moment of meeting jets of water rise sometimes to very great heights. His System. Shippen Clark (to his employer, leaving the o33?e) Oh. Mr. System, haven't you forgotten your umbrella?

"Talk about 'The Making: of an Americao, " said a settlement worker who Is occasionally called upon to run over to Ellis Island, "awhile ago I happened to take particular notice of a young Polish girl who had just been released from Ellis Island with a lot of other Immigrants. The girl was met by two women, one of them apparently her sister. The trio crossed Battery park jest ahead of me and I soon saw that they were bound for the same ferryhouse a I. They reached the npper deck only a moment before me, but by the time I got there the shawl that covered the young immigrant's head and shoulders had been pulled off, her hair fixed a bit and a brand new hat and wrap put on her by the other two women who had brought along the finery to make the newcomer fit to be seen going home with them."

These Have the Power of Spoutfng Blood From the Eyes. That certain lizards have the power to emit a stream of blood from their eyes has been a tradition of the south west from time out of mind, but many scientists hare clasred it with the jewel in the toad's head and the hoop snake. Raymond Lee LHtmars. curator of reptiles in the Xew York Zoological society, made exhaustive research tc ascertain what foundation in fact, II any, there is in the tradition of the blood spouting lizard?. He had nearly made up his mind that it was purelj mythical when he came upon a startling demonstration of its truth. lie had received a particularly fine sped men of the Mexican honied lizard and after photographing it proceeded .to measure it. The result he tells in his "Reptile Book." "The latter process," he ?ays, "seemed to greatly excite the creature. It finally threw the head slightly upward, the neck became rigid, the eye? bulged from the sockets, when there was a distinct sound like that produced if one pressed the tongue against the roof of the mouth and forced a email quantity of air forward. This rasping sound, consuming but the fraction of a second, was accompanied by a jet of blood at great preFsure. "It hit the wall four feet away at the same level as that of the reptile. The duration of the Cow of blood appeared to be about one and a half seconds, and toward its termination the force gradually diminished, as noted by a course of drops down the wall and along the floor to a position almost under the spot where the reptile had been held. The stream of blood seemed to be as fine as horsehair and to issue from the eyelid, which was momentarily much swollen. "For some time after the performance the eyes were tightly closed, and nothing could induce the lizard to open them. Within two minutes after it w as placed on the ground the protruding aspect of the eyeballs and the swelling of the eyelids had disappeared. "Most surprising was the amount of blood, expended. The wall and floor showed a course of thickly sprinkled spots about one-eighth of an inch la diameter. There were 103 of these Fpot3." Philadelphia North Americao.
Every sign in Rio Janeiro, is taxed. A cafe having a special "sorvette" or ice to serve makes a placard and hangs It to a doorpost, or to one of the palm trees in tubs which usually decorate such establishments. The notice thus posted must have a revenue stamp attached. Permanent signs are taxed on a permanent basis; temporary signs on a stamp basis. A sign "house for rent," bears a revenue stamp. Under such circumstances the tax on signboards or billboards is the expected thing, but naturaly there is much less general use of such forms of advertising. As in the cities of the United States, a vacant corner on a frequented street is very likely to have some sort of a billboard arangement. and temporary inciosures about buildings in course of construction are generaly covered with more or lea prominent signs, but these signs being taxed, are regulated both in size and other respects.
