RUSSIA'S METHOD OF SECURING
TERRITORY.
Since the Crimean war.RuBBl has not
lerlouily gone Into any war which
meant loss of men and money. The
Banian method of territorial aggran
dizement it one of making treaties, with
no thought cf complying with them. Of
securing new territory by the very mag
nitude of Ita empire, and a diplomacy
which la shrewd and nnscrupnloos.
The stand which Japan Is taking at
the present lime shows how that nation
fears for the future of J Hb commercial
and political existence, for the Russian
maroh is towards the sea, and Japan lies
very near Korea, which once added to
the Russian Umpire would place Japan
In the shadow cast by the tremendous
Empire of the.North.
It is a matter of national humiliation
with the Japanese, the present attitude
of Russia, towards Japan, for It was
.Russia which made null and Told every
victory which Japan had gained in its
war with China.
Rusala quick to selxe advantages, oc
cupled Manchuria and has used the
years since the war to fortify its posi
tion and strengthen Its occupancy in a
country where It haa no jast right, and
Its note to the Powers that their treaty
rights in Manchuria will be respected, is
the assumption of ownership of Man
churia. This promise will be like every Roe
aian promise made since Its occopancy
of Manchuria, simply Ignored. Rossis
makes no promise to be kept, as her
record shows. . The treaty la the barrier
against possible war which the Russian
gets behind and accomplishes without
loas of men or money, that which the
aacrifloe of these might fall to secure.
A failure of Japan to assert her rights,
and an Indifference among the Powers,
means absolute death to treaty rights In
Manchuria, and the ultimate absorption
of Korea by Russia.
Over riding of treaties entered into,
and a defiance of her opponents, when
eaca the territory is occupied, is the
Russian method, a policy not of Russian
dishonor, for that oountry has not
ehown that Unas a character which can
be stained by violation of ita National
word.

"The highland Utonor la a very smart
affair, and one that Is never seefi south

The laird wears hia full press kilt- ev

often there are more kilted men, around
the table than black wata, - - j

better in it than in afiy other: clothes.
It gives width, height and dignity t to
the wearer, with its shayd, sporraq and
brooches. Not only does the laird wear
his highland dress, but toward the end
of dinner his piper, who has played in
the lmll outside during the meal, comes
Into the room and marches around the
table. The pipes are a little deafening,
but the player looks so fine that one is
glad to see him. Most of the pipers In
the more noble families have Inherited
the position from their ancestors and
are rightly proud of the post After
dinner, if there is a big house party,
there Is often a dance. Then the piper
Is at his best, as he plays his pipes for
the lightsome reels to be danced, beat
ing time with his foot the while."
The Value of PoMteaeM.
If those who are doubtful as to the
correct course to pursue In any given
situation will remember that even the
wrong thing is overlooked if one la but
absolutely polite in the doing of It, their
relief might be great -
A gentleness of demeanor and a cour
teous rcsionse or question can never be
out of place. A man may wear a busi
ness suit of clothes to an evening wed
ding less noticeably ' than' a truculent
air of insolence. If he be perfectly well
bred as far as behavior goes, it matters
not so much what his outward garb,
although by an unwritten law of social
observance certain clothes are the cor
rect thine for certain occasions.
Politeness is never wrong. ! Its prac
tice goes nearly all the way toward the
goal of the right thing in the right
place. We hear of polite ipsolence, but
insolence is never polite, and It Is never
under any circumstances polite to be
insolent -

Mr. . John H. Cullom, Editor of the
Garland, Texas, News, bas written at
terof congratulations to the manufac
turers of Chamberlain's Couh Remedy
as follows: ''Sixteen years ago when
our first child was a baby be was sub
ject to 'croupy spells and we would be
very uneasy about him. We began us
ing Chamberlain's Cough Remedy In
1887, and finding It such a reliable reme
dy for colds and croup, we have never
been without it in the house since that
time. We have five children and have
given it to all of them with good results.
One good feature of this remeily Is that
it is not disagreeable to take and ur
babies really like it. Another Is thai it
la not dangerous, and there is no risk
from giving an overdose. Ijrongratolate
you upon the success of your remedy."
