The British Vs. Wilson Neutrality During the last war between great nations, the Tapanese-Russian war, England supplemented her declaration of neutrality with the following order issued by the British consul at Shanghai, China: "All subjects of the Crown are notified that the British government will not undertake to. be responsible for the safety of any British subject leaving this port on a ship of either of the belligerent nations." President Wilson has supplemented his declaration of American neutrality in the present war by refusing to warn Americans off British ammunition-passenger ships and by demanding that German attempts to destroy these hostile ammunition ships shall not endanger the lives of their American passengers. Yet England was the ally of Japan at the time she issued her order regarding the safety of British subjects aboard belligerent vessels and the United States', under President Wilson, so far as the public knows, is not supposed to be allied with England. President Wilson's Responsibility Fair minded Americans, who are American citizens first and pro-Germans, pro-English or neutrals second, are deeply interested in seeing how President Wilson in his reply to the last British note, will handle England's violations of

our trading rights as neutrals under international law. Boiled down to its essence the last British note informed the United States that England intends to fight in this war according to what her judgment tells her is the way most' likely to insure a British victory. England admits the injury done our commenrce by her illegal blockade of such neutral countries as Holland, Denmark, Norway and Sweden and then insultingly reminds us that our losses in that direction are more than made up by our profitable war munitions contracts she and her allies have placed with this country. In other words, we are urged to accept the war contracts, the blood money of England, France and Russia, as a bribe for acquiescing in England's violations of our commercial trading rights as a neutral with other neutral countries. Because Germany, driven to it by England's violations of the rights of neutral nations, destroyed the British ammunition-passenger ship, Lusitania, and over a hundred American lives thereby were lost, President Wilson practically threatened Germany with war if inadvertently any more American lives were lost in her attempts to destroy British ammunition-passenger ships. Despite the precedent established by the British government during the Japanese-Russian war by its refusal to guarantee the safety of British subjects traveling on belligerent vesvels. President Wilson seeks to do so for Americans in the present war. President Wilson now has the opportunity by compelling England to observe the established rights of neutral commerce, to remove the cause for German submarine warfare and secure safety for the lives of his fellow-citizens whos go to sea on belligerent vessels. If his reply to England is as uncompromising in its declaration for the rights of Americans as was his last note to the German government, fair minded Americans will feel that he is sincerely neutral. If his next note, however, shows he is inclined to temporize and delay, such Americans will rightly feel that he is seeking to use their government to give an unfair advantage to their hereditary enemy England.

TAGLE MAY PRESIDE OVER ALL MEXICO

Woman in Future A Brunette, Verdict

MAUEl, VASQVEZ XAGIx;.It ia thought that the conference at which the Ambassadors from Argentine, Brazil and Chile, the ministers from Guatemala. Bolivia and Uruguay and Secretary of State Lansing, will lead to the lending of American support to the candidacy of Manuel Vtisquez Tagle for president of Mexioo. Tagle was minister of justice under Madero." and is -the only member of the Mader cabinet who has not forfeited his rights to the succession by fleeing from the country. Tagle is one of the ablest men in Mexico and is said to have the support of Villa and to 1 e favorably considered by President Wilson. In the event of the conference's supporting Tagle, an embargo on arms to his opponents will probably be enforced. Carranza is understood to be hostile to Tagle, but if he is unable to ct arms from this country or any other country in this hemisphere he will soon be brought to terms.

Will the blonde or the brunette be the reigning type of the future? , What will the coming eugenic woman do toward changing the racial characteristics cf the American woman? Interesting questions these. At the international conference on race betterment. ,at the Panama-Pacific exposition, several days ago, this old battle between blondes and brunettes was waged in medical controversy between eminent physicians and educators. Dr. David Starr Jordan, chancellor of Leland Stanford, Jr., university, and Dr. A. J. Read, professor of hygiene in the Normal School of Physical Education at Battle Creek, Mich., were the chief, contestants. Sentiment ran overwhelmingly in favor of raven tresses and midnight eyes for the future mothers of the race. Blondes were lost in the counting, for the report stated "the ideal woman of the eugenic age will be plump and well rounded, but not fat. Her complection will be ruddy or brown. She will be taller than the average woman is today, and she will be a brunette." Outdoor Life A Cause. Dr. Edward Muncie, of Brooklyn, declared: "Brunettes are on the increase. The wholesome outdoor life of our women is changing the color of their skin. Health is beginning to paint new roses on their cheeks and several generations will see striking differences. The strong foreign element in this country, bringing the dark skins of southern Europe, is already showing the effect of its influence. "The blonde has represented the ideal of many races in the past and romance has added its glamor to the fair-haired, blue-eyed creations of the poet and the painter. But science has the last word. The future, undoubtedly, will show a decrease in the number of fair-haired women in this country." Dr. Charles F. Pabst said brunetts were longer-lived than blondes and that the inevitable law of the survival of the fittest would undoubtedly work for their final extermination. "The blonde type denotes absence

of pigment," Dr. Pabst said, "and this absence of skin protection In the pigment means greater susceptibility to the actinic rays of the sun. Sentiment has put blondes high in the esteem of the world, but scientifically they are apt to be mentally and physically deficient." "Men Like Bright Colors." "Men like bright colors, just as we all watch, fascinated, the colors of a butterfly that is why we joke about blondes and "marry them. But in the question of race survival the brunette will outlive the blonde every time. Women are getting so much stronger these days. That, too, is telling on their appearance. "Since wqmen have become athletic they are getting more color and darker hair. All these so-called 'eugenic failures' are making an American type. We shall see that the future will bring darker haired women, and eugenics will undoubtedly have its influence on this result." Dr. Sigmund S. Goldwater frankly waived the question. .t "I'm afraid to give an opinion," he declared. "Scientifically, it's pretty big to answer off hand, and, personally, don't dare take a chance. Ask me three years hence. Perhaps I can qualify with an expert opinion then."

Dolly's Daily Ghats For Housewives

It has long been a joke how cats and dogs, when out of sorts, fly to grass or some kind of green food for relief. The animal knows by instinct what only a few human beings are beginning to learn from experience namely, that nature has provided vegetables of the leaf order, rich in mineral salts. These salts possess a double power they not only combine with the acids and poisons in the body, rendering them powerless, but they also drive them out of the system altogether. It is not too much to say that no great mental, moral or physical progress can be made without an ample supply of this vegetable food. Salad is the one ingredient of our regular diet which we cannot afford to do without. Some people say salad is cold and indigestible, but cabbage, if eaten raw, needs only two and a half hours for digestion, as against five hours

when boiled: The DoHlng of green

should be alkaline that Is, the opposite to acid and it is the alkaline salts in vegetables which bring about this healthy condition. Many thousands of men and women of all ages suffer from anemia from having lived almost entirely on cooked food. To those long accustomed to highly flavored food, salads will at first seem tasteless, but a liking for them comes with use. Salad should be very carefully washed in several changes of clean water. This is .essential. During washing the leaves should be well picked over and inspected. Leaves should be torn, not cut'. W7hen done, they can be allowed to soak for an hour, or overnight, but not longer, in cold water, to which a little lemon-juice has been added to increase the crispness of the leaves. The Japanese use the petals of many flowers for salads. Chrysanthemums, stocks, violets, roses, nas

Talks With Lovers Kitty Carothers Gives Advice to" Young Persons and Answers Inquiries About Affairs of Heart.

Dear Miss Carothers I am in love with a girl in Seattle. We had been sweethearts since childhood, until her parents moved west. I can not marry for at least three years, as I have two more years school at Earlham. Would it be an injustice to ask her to wait? STEADY READER. You have won the young woman's love. Don't throw it away now. Talk the situation over with her. Then if you are both sure of your unswerving love and fidelity, wait and work. You will be surprised how you will prosper and how the time will pass with your constant working toward such a happy reward. HE WAS IMPOLITE. Dear Miss Carothers For some time I have been keeping company with a young man. The other night my sister and I went to the movies together. Accidentally we sat next to him. When we got ready to go he said I would have company home, and made no offer to escort us. Don't you

think he should at least have offered to take us home? PERPLEXED. Unless you and your sister are older than I presume, you should not have been alone. In the second place, the young man should have proffered his company. He probably thought he would not enjoy being with you so much when your sister was there, but that, does not excuse him from acting courteously. YOU'RE TOO YOUNG. Dear Miss Carothers I have been going: with a young man, who is without bad habits, for some time. He has asked me to marry him. My parents object; why I do not know. Do you think I am too young at 17? MABEL. Yes;, you are too young, for one thing. Try to get your parents to see the young man's good qualities. If they steadfastly refuse to do so, I would not marry against their will until perfectly satisfied that he is the man you want for a husband. Weigh carefully your parents' objections.

The majority of us care too little for what our families think of us and too much for the way we appear to the outside world. To make a show, comforts even necessities are denied in the home too often that lavish display may be shown to outsiders. Family quarrels are oft the result of the expensive entertaining of those who may, perhaps, laugh at you and your efforts as soon as they leave your home. .. Denying the family ordinary expenses for a month that a number of people outside may be given the most expensive things possible is a poor plan to follow What do you gain by it? Giving people costly and elaborately prepared viands can not buy friends. The worth-while friend is the one whom you can treat as you treat ybur family. If he be the right sort, he will enjoy the privilege of dropping in at mealtime with the members of the household. No extra furbelows. Just a plate and it is done.
