Just at the ‘resent thne intentional indiscretions are numerous and the prompt action ‘which has been taken dy the govern- ment concerning them is to be com- Thendsd. ‘‘Without proper considera- tion of the position which they oc- cupy in respect to their governments, A. Rustem Bey and Baron Schoen have ‘made statements which if they were from:i private individuals might pass ‘with little attention, but coming from the recognized representatives of for- eign governments, at a time when they mre possible of much misconstruction, they camnot be allowed to go unno- ticed, The Turkish ambassador's determi- nation to leave in a fortnight indicates his rgcognition bf an indiscretion.

Wven though repudiated by the German government it discloses = dangerous tendency from that em- bassy which would be displeasing to this government at any time, but is particularly so now in view of its neu- tral attitude. Bven theugh Baron Schoen has just returned from Japan there is no rea- Son to believe his biased idea of the Japanese feeling represents the true attitide towards this government, but the ease with which a mountain can he madé out of a molehill calls for iteps which will prevent its repeti- ‘ion. Sir Tdonel Carden, A. Rustem Bey and Baron Schoen are a trio of Nhn; their countries can hardly be oroud. THIS COUNTRY’S RESOURCES. The peculiarly fortunate position of the United States in its ability to yupply its own needs is clearly seen ‘rom a survey of its production and ‘elative contributions to the world of 'he great requirements of man—food, :lotiing and shelter. It is found for :xample that the people of the United States may be fed readily by home yroduced foodstuffs, our vast area of ‘hreg -and two-thirds million square niles representing every variety of :imate and production, and being wearly equal in extent to all Europe vhich has a population five times as arge &s this country.

Though headway in such an under- is back of the effort to remove judges of probate from politics. The latest instance comes from Norwalk, where the retention of a democrat has been agreed upon by both parties. It is naturally a recognition of his efficient services, but it is at the same time a magnificent response to needs of placing in office a capable judge and retaining him there for the welfare of the community he serves, instead of making the important judicial posi- tion the football ‘of politics. The two ‘parties in Norwalk have set a magnificent example, or rather emphasized it for there are a few other instances where such a course has been pursued. When it is con- sidered what the business is that the probate court handles, it deserves as much attention for the securing of not only faithful, but of the best qual- ified men for the place, the same as the other courts of the state. In many instances far more important cases are before it for adjustment than many which reach the higher courts. Peo- ple who never see the inside of any other court are very apt to have some dealings with the probate court, and the judge who presides there -should have the confidence of the people and not be dependent upon campaigns and the whims of politics to reward effi- cient ce of duty. The same Dbenefit- which is gained by removing other judgeships from the list of elec- tive offices holds good there. ‘RUSSIAN TREATIES. It is mow mnearly two years since this country abrogated its treaty of commerce and navigation with Russia, Business has been carried on in the meantime without such a definite un- derstanding, but the need of resuming .| such relations as formerly existed has been felt by both countries. It was the persistent refusal of Russia to, recognize American pass- ports when carried by Jews who' had become mnatfuralized citizens of this country ‘which brought the treaty to an end. Russia restricted Jews to cer- tain sections of that country and was unwilling to change her position even when they had become American cit- izens. ! 5 " Quite recently there has been a change in the Russian’ attitude towards the Jews, the stringent regulations have been materially modified, Jews have been given appointments in the list of army officials and promises made which indicate the dawn of a new era for Jews in that country. Treaty-wise Ruyssia has signified its intention to negotiate a peace treaty with this country of a character sim- ilar to most of the other nations. With such intention disclosed and a dif- ferent attitude taken by the coun- try regarding Jews at home, the way would seem.to be opened for the re- newal of the former commercial treaty and its provisions as to pass- ports regardless of what the nation- ality of American citizens might have been before they pledged allegiance to the stars and stripes or what their re- liglon is. £ EDITORIAL NOTES. Even the suggestion that the war tax be placed on th(’; shelf is meeting ‘with opposition. To séme thers is consolation in the fact that hay fever is likely to.end before the war. From the work of the weatherman it might be judged that he had some doubt ahout his batting average. President 'Wilson has said something to one talkative diplomat which leaves no, doubt about it being a well fitted garment, Coming “into the home stretch of watchful waiting Villa appears to be doing his best to crowd Carranza out of the pole. There will be no weeping over the determination expressed by -the Turk- ish ambassador to leave this country in two weeks. The man on the corner says: About the time one begins to think of loving his fellowman he up and moves out of the neighborhood. If the “sparing” of the cathedral at Rheifis is a specimen of German ob- servance of orders there must be great elasticity to their rules. Having contributed a whole page of wise sayings to the new democratic campaign book, a new uss for the vice president is discovered. The one unfortunste feature of the Colorado strike situation is that the state is not ig 'a position to ald the termination of the trouble. e Being a friend of both Carranza and Villa, the only thing &or this country to do in the present crisis is to retain its grip on neutrality, The appearance of cholera among the Austrian troops means that dis- ease is preparing to claim a great deal larger toll than the battlefield. —— It is a rather difficult underiaking for one generatlon to keep its mind in tuns with the younger when the collection of ash bdarrels is under con= sideration, The war in Furope is creating in- tense interest but thers is no reason for indifference in putting up and vot- ing for the best candidates for office in the coming elections.

It is a fruit year and it is claimed there are sixty million bar- rels of apples in sight; enough placed -end to end to reach around the earth a dozen times, or to make a pyramid 530 miles high. It is threg barrels of ap- ples for every family in the United States—raw material for pie and pan dowdy enough to feed the armies of Europe for months. One great Ameri- can state has ten million apple trees, and this little state of Connecticut has one man who in their season can pick a million peaches a day, nearly two peaches apiece daily for every resi- dent of-the state. Since New England grows the finest of fruit, it is mot strange we have a great mouth for ple, or that we-are known as the pie- eaters of America. The pie belt starts with New England and - onz. Sugar is dear, but apples ought to Lé cheap. 1 ask myself occasionally. how much farther advanced religionists of today be who believe God. orders afflictions for his children than the men were in the so-called dark ages. There was a time when Christians believed all good things were from God, and- all, evil things from the devil.: It was evil spirits who afflicted, the people with sickness, and they were driven away by charms, incantations and a deposit of money or_ provender with the priests for the Lord. A written .prayer bound upon .an abscess or sore of any kind drove away the tormentor, or evil spirit, and the patient was healed. The war upon Saten was Incessant, and if the patient did not -get well it was because he didn't enjoy the faver of the Lord—was too. wicked -te - be saved. But since Satan as a direct enemy of man has faded away -and doctors instead of the Lerd are de- pended upon to make ‘men immune from disease, some people have con- ceived the idea God himsel disease of which they by their habiits are the cause.. This doesn’t look like progress to. me. It is not safe to dvscuss the merits of the European war in 2 mixed com- pany even in America, but when the horrors of it are talked over all men alike stand aghast. It is usually ad- mitted that the age s been reached when less than a hundred men should set 16,000,000 men of Christendom. on campaigns of murder and pillage. If twentieth century men are so intelli- gent and Christianized as we pretend they be, they should be -allowed to pass upon the 0} ce and. right- eousness of the issue and whether it is to be settled by arbitration or by arms. The divine right method of ruling sensible and sane men smells too much of the musty and mythical past to be even tolerated. The interests of the many are of more importance than the power and fame of the few. A half million dead and a third as many widows and three times as many fa- therless children is too high a price to pay for anything the present conflict promises the world. 1 am more or less interested in .the boys on the street corner, because I used to be a boy on the corner my- self; but I never loitered long with the lad who talks loud and tells “what my old man says” and “my old wo- man thinks!” Father and mother scemed hallowed words to me, and I have cherished ‘them. because - they embody all of love and kindness and inspiration. The lad who says: ‘“‘My old man!” and “My old woman!" is a disgrace to the -mother. who -bore him, and a poor- companien -for any boy. I do not believe much in the corrective value of the lash, but a live- ly applicatnon of the strap is what such thoughtlessness and debasement deserves. If the boy who talks about his old man. should.hear once. bow it sounds to others he would cut it out. His own speech is his constant condemnation. E There .are many people who talk that would tremble were they obliged to take thelr own advice. There is the hangman, for instance, who counsels theé convict not to be nervous in his last moments, but. to take it coolly; and the lawyer who invites you to put your bankbooks in his possession be- cause they will be safer there than in your own and the clergyman Who advises you to make your peace with God before you have.learned to make your peace with. your fellowman: and the editor who advises you to Vote-as he advocates instead of as you think you should: and the employer who advises you to be content when he knows your earnings are not-sufficient to keep you out of debt. What is ad- vice when it is sifted? Shakespeare says: “I.can easier teach twenty what were good. to be. done than to be one of twenty to follow mine own,teach- ing.” Advice is the one thing never welcome and given away without stint. The maid who marries & man for his money seldom gets it, but she is usually astounded at what she.haswith it, while the girl who weds a man for himself is frequently surprised by his power to acquire all that is neces- sary for the comfort and pleasure of ‘both. Things done from purely- sel- fish motives in this world do not pro- duce the most admirable results. Hon- or and honesty still continue to Dbe good traveling companions and' they direct one along inviting paths. Con= spiracies, whatever their -object, are base because they abound ih deceit and false pretense. To marry for any- thing except true love is of course cannot be peace and pleasure sult. Have you ever thought what a :fine world this would be if we could hold others in the same esteem we hold ourselves or excuse théir foibles and forgive their faults as readily as we <an our own? ‘What the world is suf- fering from is- an under-supply of charity. It takes an extraordinary man in distributing turkeys to give the tenderest to others and keep the teughest for himself. Right on the quiet most of us feel the best is none too good for us, and that most any old thing will do for others, We are not keyed up for making the Dest of ev- erything—we in our blindness make too moch worse. The spreaders of happiness are too few—most of our birds of paradise are counterfeits. ‘When we learn to love our neighbors as we do-ourselves the world ‘will be nearly heaven, & There is nothing. preached more than righteousmess—there is nothing practiced much -less, 1t is said thers is only ons effective bullet in 5,000 fired at the enemy, and there écesn't averags ome effective word in the same number almed at the un- righteous, Think of the fine sermons preached-in this sountry every Bun- day and the light Impression they make, It waz Rowland E1ll who said: “i do not like thoss mighty fine preachers who reund off thelr. sen- tcnces so beautifully that they are sure to voll eff the sinner's consclence The iruth needs to have the hooks of & burr to eatch on and hold on to the cenaciences of mosi mern, A good ser- mon is usually the one wiich does not disturb the mind of the hypeerites or arcuse the indelent to the peri] of their own lasminess, An- effective sermon s one that sinks deep into man's con- iy o - == 1f orders. (Written Specially for The Bulletin) Astory is told of two members of the race which always makes money meeting, when one sald to the other, “You remember J.? He used to stand on this corner and sell shoe-strings! Now he owns the cormer!” The other responded excitedly, “Yes, and if_he had walked up and down, he might have owned the block!™” There is a good deal in this.* Most of us are more than anxious to make money, to suceed; but we take it out in wishing. A Norwich business enterprise sends sciousness because it is leaded with the truth. Too many preachers in this day aim at nothing and hit it. It Is not the preacher's learning but his earnestly expressed convictions which work wonders. SUNDAY MORNING .TALK The Courage to Quit. It takes courage to holg fast, but frequently courage of quite as fine a sort to let go. To know how to quit is’as valuable as to know how to hang on: The drummer boy who said he could beat a retreat was not a scien- § tific’ soldier. For a retreat may be the best possible strategy, the forerunner of glorious victory. There is a_difference between pluck and- pig-headedness. Many a man flatters himself that he is heroically persevering when he has only slipped into a rut from which he is too stub- born or lazy to try to extricate him- self. He does the same things and thinks the same thoughts simply be- cause- of inertia. Consistency is a jewel, but some Jewels are of paste. Emerson told us that ‘A'foolish consistency is the hob- goblin of little minds.” To the man who thinks it a disgrace to change any, opinion once formed the words of the" philosopher are a sort of chal- lenge: “Speak what you think today in words as hard as cannon balls, and tomorrow speak what tomorrow thinks in hard words again, though it con- tradict everyt®®hg you said today.” There are someé opinions that had bet- ter be changed, some conclusions that need to be abandoned, no matter how inconsistent with all the past the new view ‘may be. One had better quit work which -deep fatigue has made unprofitable. A sure indication that you are very tired is the inability to Close up shop and go home when the time comes. You keep seeing little things to do and £0 puttering on and on. The efficient ‘worker has learned when to shut the desk or put down the sewing basket, turn out lights and go to bed. . Abil- ity to let go of work sharply is one to be cultivated along with the ability to take it up again. One had better quit a task for which after sincere trial, he is proved to have no fitness. The misfit occupation had better be abandoned. Franklin found no inspiration in making tallow can- dles nor Grant beside the tanner’s vat, Both quit uncongenial tasks with re- sults that the world knows., P, T. Barnum let go of 14 different occupa- tions - before he found the one for which nature had fitted him, that of showman. The principle may easily be carried too far, of courss but should be emphasized for those who need it. A shift of employment is 'justified «wheén' one finds he is in a blind .alley leading nowhere. The rolling stone gathers no moss, but who wants to gather moss anyway? One had better quit bad habits are those that dull efficiency of body. mind or spirit. Most of us need not look far from home to dis- cover such. A writer, excessively ad- dicted to cigarets, said that he came to feel all the time as though he were wearing mittens—only the mittens were on his wits.. It was only as he quti nicotine, after a struggle, that he took the mittens off. Every day “jolly good fellows” are dropping business and professional honors at the feet of those who drink mostly water and let good nights of sleep “knit up the raveled sleeve of care.” The night hawk, the moderate drinker, the user of drugs, the street lounger, etc., had better quit. No fame or fortune lies along the way they do. Let them change base before the wires are cut ang the enemy is surrounding them. THE PARSON. its. Bad out an announcement with this signi- ficant sugestion: % “Do what others are dreaming about; not dream what others art doins.” This summer, | have been impressed by the successes S0 many persons have been able to make, because they were wise enough to “do ye nexte thynge. They did not wait for money to come it to them; where they were. they made For exampl: otel on the Boiled Ham Sausage Potato Salad Maine coast, several small boys called regularly eachh —morning, offering bunches of sweet peas, nasturtiums, asters, zinnias and other blooms in their season. These were bought not only by the hotel management but by the guests. Irom the hotel and an- nex the boys made the rounds of the cottages. Nearly every one furnished a customer; the bright flowers were in demand to adorn the table, porch or_doorway. I learned that this was the enter- prise of a widow, whose only avail- able means of making money during the summer was to raise these blooms to sell to the summer guests. Her rev- enue must have been considerable throughout the season, while tending the flowers was a labor certainly not heavy. An active girl | met was able to ac- cumulate a nice little fund by catering to summer guests, but in another fashion. Since the time of the outcry against “embalmed” food, city peaple have de- veloped a strong desire for home made things. So this wise damsel prepares each summer glass after glass of jelly, currant, blackberry, apple, quince, crab-apple and the like, as well as cans of red tomatoes, the little vellow tomatoes which everybody likes,!pep- pers in several forms, preserves, curd cheese and other tempting things, sell- ing them to the city visitors for im- mediate or later consumption. She has regular eustomers and has estab- lished a trade which leaves her at the end of the summer with a good profit for her work in utilizing fruit and vegetables which otherwise would go to loss on her father’s big farm. It was a desperate woman who needed cash who thought of stringing dried kernels of sweet corn—yellow to their art value; but they were a the bare doorways of summer cottages. Possibly there may be a question as to their art value; but theye were a novelty and sold well to those who have money to exehange for odd things in the country. New England up her mind that she could just not return, the following Fall. It was then early in July. What could she do? “I could not dig!” she said, in telling me of the birth of her enterprise, “to beg I was ashamed! But I simply had to hustle to get a liv- ing”! The family home was a rambling old country place, fortunately on the well traveled post-road between two big cities. “It has always been a proverb” she said, “that when a man was unfit for any other business, he opened a tav- n! Ha, ha! Just the plan for me! T determined to start a tea room! And so she did. A quaint and an- cient sign was procured from an inn cellar and painted up gaily; the long, low rooms of the house and the deep fire-places were put in order for vis- itors; a varied collection of pieces of old china, dainty as well as practical baskets, boxes and baskets .of candy, and various other things which motor parties buy were secured, the major- ity on credit. Everything was made fresh ‘and dainty and attractive, quaint flowers from the old grandmother’s garden filled jardinieres apd vases, and the tea-room and gift ‘shop opened for business. I had a dinner there myself, so gained a good idea of what the wo- man served her patrons. There was tender lamb, roasted to a turn, mint sauce, mashed potatoes, creamed cauliflower, sweet pickles, bread sticks —which somehow always seen more appetizing than common bread, al- though no more trouble to make than an ordinary loaf—sweet, fresh but- ter, tomato salad and for dessert, old- fashioned Indian pudding with sauce of whipped cream. She charged w dol- lar, her patrons paid it cheerfully and went away to advertise how g her dinners were—and how filling— which is an important item with hungry motorists!

A farmer with crops to harvest, will stand with one foot on a rock, chew a straw and spend a valuable hour in farm—and trelilses, over which he will twine vines and flowers. Some day, a city man comes along, sees the trim, tidy well-kept farm, offers twice what it is valued at in the rmflvcmmunnox and pays cash it. ©Oh, ves! course!

He was a hundred miles from home, was sick of hotels and would have paid a le price for board at a near-by farm house, where he would have relished Tooms-were all occupied by members of the family, and they were perishing for a little ready money, mot one member would give up a room.
