It was not lowered In order to please the Itrltish people hut be cause it was considered economically sound. Nevertheless it added to the pleasure of doing It when he reflected that America would thereby receive more trade from this country. Especially in Cotton. “Mr. Page here made a lengthy ref erence to the trading between Kngland and America, especially In cotton, about which he said: “‘I hope In future It will he sent here in better grading and better shapin' “The ambassador proceeded that he wished to correct an impression about the attitude of the United States gov- j eminent concerning British Invest ments In states in Central America with volcanic tendencies He sometime read that the Cntted States was en tering upon ft polit y to discourage for eign investments. There was a policy . forming In the mint! of the American government which was not new, that would discourage Investments or such concessions as would carry with them control of the government of any of those states ami only that. The Monroe Doctrine. “It was not the business of the Unit ed States to put any let or hindrance 1 upon any Investments anywhere in ■ the world, provided only that the In vest merits were not made so that they took the country with them. “The Monroe doctrine m«*nnt only that no Kuropean governments should gain any more land In the new world. “Mr. Page then made humorous ref erence t<i Kngllshmen taking tdg prices from Americans for their pictures, marrying American heiresses, benefit ing by the expenditures of American tourists, etc. He said: “ ‘You complain of our rapacity hut you take our money* “ ‘You show yourselves shrewd trad ers. for we got only a little Knglish history in broken pieces for all our expenditures.* Colossal Trad#. “Tn concluding the ambassador said that next to free government, which had Its birth In the United Kingdom, the greatest fact In the whole world was the colossal structure of Itrltish commerce that bound all parts of the earth together ami made men know ono another and therefore become moor reasonable and more peaceful.” The Times quotes Ambassador Page after his references to Panama and the tariff as follows: “Concerning the recent message of President Wilson he could say the same. He delivered It not merely to plouse the people of these Islands hut to express the true sentiment and self respect of the American nation for ev ery true American."

He sure and get the white or colorless lodine; the brown Is too strong for the skin of the face and will also leave a stain. Cultivate Beauty Habits. Beauty habits and habits that mar hesuty are easily cultivated during these years. Among the latter are frowning, distorting the face and bit ing the lips. Thick or rough lips should be kept well lubricated with a good cream; never bite or moisten them with the tongue, for this will only Increase the trouble Remember that frowning will make permanent lines in the fact and that a happy expression will ren der any face attractive. Blonde hair, so common with the An glo Saxon race In childhood. Is prone to darken towards maturity. So often ni> pupil* ask for something to pre vent this. There Is little wo can do to ehange pigmentation; that Is decided while the hair Is in the bulb and Is one of the mysteries of Nature's chem istry. Nothing cun make the hair grow light after It has started dark; It can be made light by bleaching or dyeing. Safe Treatments for the Hair. There are, however, some harmless methods that will brighten the hair. Hair that Is kept dry, free from per- 1 splratlon and an oily condition of the scalp, will remain blonde longer than It would If neglected. An egg sham- 1 poo tends to brighten blonde hair, or, if , the ordinary soup shampoo is given, the Juice of half a lemon added to the lust rinsing water will have the same effect. Soda and peroxide of hydro gen will render the hair light and fluffy For a time, but the continual use of either will eventually make the hair brittle and lifeless and take all color from It. How much better to accept Nature's dictum in this matter and promote the right color by treating the hair right ly. This means a daily brushing, comb ing and airing of the hair, an occa sional scalp massage and a thorough shampoo once a fornlght, or more oft en. If dandruff Is present. With proper care the hair will be glossy, sort and beautiful, no matter what the tint, and this la sufficient to make It beau tiful. J£lp In th. next lesson Madam.
