"LANSING WINS HIS SPl'RS"
If Secretary Lansing needed to
wiu hU si>urs in his new office he
has won them by the recent Aus
tria-Huagariau note on the sub
jet: of munitions exports, says
Colliers Weekly. He may in the,
future make mistakes, as ail men
do. But for his note to Austria
lluuiMry he should be taken to
the hearts of the American people.
Th'-re is a gay courage about it
thu» is agreeably characteristic of
a vigorous nation. His tabb's to
show what shipments of munitions
both Austria and Germany made to
England during her war with South
Africa are a master stroke. In
other words. Secretary Lansing
".has the goods" ou these belliger
ents to whom all is fair so long as
they profit—but not otherwise.
There is an undercurrent of the
kind of advice that a younger and
more clear-headed brother might
be giving an older and blundering
oue with whom the \jorld has gone
awry.
If at the time (he says) Aus
tria-Hungary and her present
and ammunition to oreui-rmv
aln ou the ground that to do
so 'would violate the spirit of
strict neutrality, the Imperial
end Royal government would
with greater farce urge its
present contention.
And in another place he tells
poor old Austria:
A nation whose priuciple and
policy it is to rely upon inter
national obligations and inter
national justice to preserve its
political and territorial integ
rity might bceome the prey of
p.a aggressive nation whose
policy and practice it is to in
crease its military strength dur
ing times of peace with the de
sU.i of conquest, unless the
r.atiou attacked can, after war
has been declared, go into the
markets of the world and pur
chase the means to defend
itself against the aggressor.
"Oh, I don't mean you," he sub
stantially says; "of course I don't.
Certainly not!" We repeat, Secre
tary Lansing "has the goods.." It
is not for nothing that Germany
loft this particular coal for the
paws of Austrian diplomacy, since
its own diplomatic paws had been
of late so cften burned.

Burning, Kept From School at

101G McKceSt.. Fort Wayne. Ind.—"My

caused her pain for it itchcd
and buned so badly that
sho scratched and irritated

It was a good bit bigger than a silver dollar. |
It made her ear stick to her head and I I
could not pull it away without her crying.
"I got a sample of Cuticura Soap and
Ointment, washed the sore place with the
Soap and applied the Ointment and I began
to see the relief it gave her. So I bought a
cake of Cuticura i:oap and a box of Ointment
and she is entirely weii." (Signed) Mrs.

they stood, each at his open door on
summer evenings, Annlbale eyed not
without envy the bulge In Glnsburg's
left band trousers pocket He knew
that It evidenced a roll of bills as big
around as a hickory branch and that
the outer wrapper was yellow, for ever
and anon Morris pulled It from his
pocket and counted It alowly over,
drawing each bill toward him twlxt a
loving thumb and linger.
The operation finished, ho returned
It to Its hiding place and scratched his
straggling beard, calmly awaiting the
Inevitable question from Annlbale.
Many times he had gone through the
program, and not once had the ques
tion failed of utterance.
"S-n-a-y," Annlbale remarked, "yon
so reech a man, so much a mon', I just
for like know what's a matter you no
get shave-a?"
Morris shrugged and smiled.
"You ask me ah question," he replied
with tho Talmudlcal singsong Inflec
tion, "vot is doch ah foolish question."
He tapped Annlbale playfully on the
chest "You tell me," he concluded,
"und I'll tell you." And with another
Bhrug he re-entered his store.
"E's a-crate," Annlbale ejaculated to
himself and sought tho consolation of
his battered guitar.
Or perhaps the colloquy took another
form.
"I Just for like know," Annlbale
would say as the roll was thrust back
Into Qlnsburg's pocket, "how much a
mon' you got?"
"Ah million, I nln't got it," Morris
would reply, "aber I ain't eggs-ect-ly
bankrupt, y'understand."
Then he would turn to Annlbale, and
by tho movements of his ragged beard
it could be deduced that he smiled.
"Friends Is friends," he would say
oracularly, "und good friends is also
friends. Aber money—dot's der best*

The aphorism invariably left poor
