Phe death of the wife of President Wilson on Thursday afterneon fis an- nounced by ‘telegraph this morning. She has been suffering from a fatal| physical malady for several weeks, and the worriment and care of this affliction in addition to the strain and trials of the business of the govern- ment must have been all that a man could bear. Msrs, Wilson was an accomplished woman and had won some repute as an artist. She was highly esteemed and beloved in the clrcles In which #he moved. and although her death was expected her loss Is deeply felt b5 all who knew her. The American people recognize with sorrow the deep bereavement of the president and his family ana oxtend to them in the fullest measure their sin- cere sympathy, O T T TR MILITARY EFFICIENCY OF THE ARMIES. There can be no question as to the military efficiency of the armed forces of Furopc. The German army is regarded as the finest orgawized force for defense in the world, and| the latest expert opinions of the Aus- trian army is that it stands only sec- ond to the forces of Germany for abil- ity and discipline, The defeat of the French by the Germans 44 vears ago with compara- tive ease, and the recent defeat of the Russians by the Japanese, tends to lessen the confidence of onicokers in their ability to cope with the forces against them. No doubt both nations have profited by their repulses and are in better trim for battle than ever he- fore. The French government has a new rapid fire feld gun which is sald to be superior for speed, range and des- truetive power to any field gun now in use, As the ruler of the sess Great Bri- tain has the ships, the guns, the men and the prestige and it is not likely she will be pushed to second place By her enemies, espectally since Japan Rea decided to guard her interests in the east if her services are required. It is because of the efficiency of the eombatants and thefr wonderful equip- ment to destroy men that the por- « tending war gives promise of being in its results the most disastrous war ever known to the world, ENGLAND'S CALMNESS, Tn the present intermational furore England commands the respect of America by her cool and dignified atti- tude. King George is neither explain- ing nor complaining, but makes a fi.n of his international obliga- and expresses his intention to stand true. He does not believe in ing neutrality treaties or in walking over weak and defenseless Bations to gain an advantage in at- facking the enemy. He believes the te of neutrality should be met and honored in times of war, This frerdom may be extended and they dream of a better homeland in which | the people should rule and rovalty bej abolished. | We like the spirit of bravery and !ovalty which takes them forth to the fray, and we respect the sense and the love of their adopted country which prompts them to decline to throw their |lives away WHAT WE DON'T THINK OF.

At supper time Maude was off for the straw ride and couldn't help, for she must'nt keep the girls waiting for her, so the burden fell, as usual, on mother's shoulders. And it was always so. Maude did not mean to be selfish or unkind, but there was sure to be something for her own pleasure that must be done. something that could not be put off, she thought, that kept her from giv ing the help she really meant to rend- er Her mother had always done the work without a word of complaint and the daughter did not see the failing strength, or the faltering step.

Statistics have a peculiar Interest. They seem to be proving sometning. They impress you as indisputable. You ‘eel you dare not argue with them. And ‘they usually come to no conclu- sion at all. A triumphant general law can only be maintained by one who gayly casts facts to the winds. Our colleague, for a period of six had under observation ten rersons, coming as often as possible in contact with them and checking up the aocuraey of their statements. The subjects were a legislator (party not given), a physician, two_ lawyers, one young, the other old: a banker, a grocer, a grandmother, a young moth- er. a young lady and a servant girl, During the six months the investiga- tor found that the legislator in thirty interviews lied ten times: the doctor in twenty-five utterances fold fourteen lies; the young attorney departed from the’ truth twenty-two times in forty conversations; the old advocate., na- turally more 'expert, falsified in as many talks twenty-eight times: out of ten remarks of the banker five were untrue and one literally true statement told with intent to mislead; the grocer in fifteen talks lied forty times; the grandmother managed to get in seven falsehoods in eight visits: the young married woman's score was fifteen whacks In eleven calls; the young dady told twenty-four in nineteen innings, and the servant girl—she worked for the journalist’s family—in six months of continued observation produced over 150 lies. Total, 377 conversations and 42§ lies. Of the 324 lies, 100 were traceable to vanity pure and simple: over sixty were told to advance the speaker's per- sonal interests; fifty were put forth to conceal some embarrassing defect or mistake of the tellers self or of an- other; four dozen were told to injure some one else and sixty to make ex- cuse for not keeping some promise or for not doing what ought to have been done. An analysis of the record shows— anything -you please. That 1s the beauty of statistics. Algo the conviction cannot be re- sisted that a man who could discever such a quantity of lles must have been something of an artist himeelf. Besides, there aro lies that are not lies.
