President Roosevelt's Message

United Stales Has Committed
Itself to the Policy Ho Outlines
Advantages of the Treaty Made
Plain.
IN THE INTERESTS OF ALL
Measure Declared to Do Demand
ed by Considerations of Brond
National Policy as Well as Eco
nomic Interests Large Market
at Stako.
On Tuesday, Nov. 10, President
Roosevelt sent to Confess hla mes
sago explaining tho reasons for the
gathering of tho Senate and Houso of
Representatives In rpeclcl session.
Tho document follows:
To tho Senate nud Hou o of Itcpre
l uontatlves:
I have convened the Congress that
It may consider the legislation neces
Gary to put Into operation tho com
mercial treaty with Cuba, which was
ratified by tho Senate at Its. last ses
sion and subsequently by the Cuban
government. I deem uch l"gls.ln.tIon
"demanded not only by our Interest,
but by our honor. Wo cannot with
propriety abandon tho course upon
which we have so wisely embarked.
When tho acceptance of tho I'latt
amendment was required from Cuba
by tho action of tho Congress of tho
United States, this government there
by definitely committed Itself to tho
policy of treating Cuba as occupying
n unique position ns regards this
country. It was provided that when
tho Island becamo u free and Inde
pendent republic, she should stand In
such close relat!oti3 with us as In cer
tain respects to como within our sjs
tern of International policy, and It
necessarily followed that she must
also to a certain degree become In
cluded within tho lines of our eco
nomic policy. Situated as Cuba is, it
would not be possible for this country
to permit tho strategic abuso of tho
island by any forolgn military power.
It Is for this reason that certain limi
tations have been impressed upon her
financial policy and that naval sta
tions novo been conceded by her to
tho United Statos. The negotiations
ns to tho dotalls of these naal sta
tions nro on tho ovo of completion.
They nro so situated as to prevent any
Idea that there is tho intention ever
SAVAGE WEAPONS OF WARFARE.
Inhuman Devices invented to Make
War More Horrible.
Devices Intended to make war so
terrible that every civilized nation on
earth would bo only too glnd to re
frain from it havo been offered fre
quently of late to tho war, tho navy
and stato department. Tho predilec
tion to run to gas bombs manifests
Itself again, as it did fifteen years ago.
Tho main object of tho uso of tho
hydrocyanic acid gas bomb Is to cap
ture the ships of tho onomy without
8hooting tho vessel to pieces or blow
ing them up or sinking them. It is
contonded that If si bomb charged with
that gas wero exploded on tho deck of
a ship tho fumes would instantly sink
to tho inncrmobt parts of tho vessel.
It is known that a whiff of hydrocya
nic acid gas inhaled will cause irrstant
death. Evon after thoso who proposo
Birch a scheme nro informed by tho
authorities (lint such a thing is out of
the question becauso it comes under
tho head of poison, tho, use of which
Is Interdicted by tho universal regu
lations of wnr, thoy proposo other
similar schemes timo after time. Ono
of theso Is tho uso of a gas thnt is irr
Itself not deadly. It renders thoso
who inhale its fumes unconscious for
about six hours. "Why, you might no
well take tho crow of nn enomy's ship
and get all hands drunk," remarked
a Washington officer In commenting
on the last mentioned plan.
The Sugar Confectioners Use.
An amateur candy maker says: "If
I didn't tako pains with tho littlo
things I'd ho a fnllure. I always bear
In mind that any old uugar that tho
grocer sells for pulverized Is not good
enough. Bar sugar Is what confec
tioners uso. Every lump must bo
rubbed out of It. In dipping chico
lato creams never uso sweetened
chocolate; the bitter coating is de
licious." Women Not Good Risks.
Notwithstanding tho fact that wom
en reach a greater ago than men, thoy
have proved a losing vonturo to llfo
Insurance companies. Women nro
not prouo to the excesses, nor exposed
to tho rough weather, nor liable to
tho accidents which shorten llfo, but
they aro more likely to suffer from
cancer In middle llfo than aro men;
and, too, women much moro frequent
ly have intuitive promonition of fill
ing health than huvo men, and, having
that Intuitive fear take life Insurance.

to uso them against Cuba, or other
wise than for tho protection of Cuba
from tho assaults of foreign foes nnd
for tho better safeguarding of Ameri
can Interests in tho waters south of
us.
Advantages of the Treaty.
Those Interests havo boon largely
increased by tho consequences of tho
war with Spain and will bo furthor in
creased by the building of the Isth
mian canal. They nro both military
nnd ocor tulc. Tho granting to tia by
Cuba of tho nnal stations above al
luded to is of tho utmost lmportanco
from n military standpoint, and Is
proof of the good faith with which
Cuba is treating us. Cuba has mads
great progress since her Independence
was established. She has advanced
steadily In every wny. Sho already
stands high among her sister repub
lics of tho new world. Sho Is loyally
observing her obligations to us; nnd
shu Is entitled to llko trcntment by
us. Tho treaty submitted to you for
approval secures to the United Statos
economic advantages as great as thoso
given to Cuba. Not an American in
terest Is sacrificed. By tho troaty n
large Cuban market Is secured to our
pioducers a market which lies at our
doors, which Is already largo, which
Is capable of groat expansion and
whicli l.i especially important to tho
development of our export trade. It
would be indeed short sighted for us
to refuse to tako advantage of such
an opportunity nnd to force Cuba Into
making arrangements with other
countries to our disadvantage.
In the Interests of All.
This reciprocity treaty stands by
Itself. It Is demanded on considera
tion of broad national policy as well
ns by our economic Interests. It will
.do barnr to no Industry. It will bene-
I lit many industries. It Is In tho in
terest of our people as a whole, both
becauso of its lmportanco from the
broad standpoint of International
policy and because economically It In
timately concerns us to dovolop arid
secure the rich Cuban market for our
farmers, artisans, merchants and
manufacturers. Finally, it In deslrnblo
as a guaranty of tho good faith of our
nation toward her oung sister re
public to tho south, whoso welfnro
must ever bo closely bound with ours.
Our Duty to the Island.
Wo gave her liberty. Wo aro knit
to her by tho memories of tho blood
nnd tho courage of our soldiers who
fought for her In war; by tho mem
ories of tho wisdom nrrd Integrity of
our administrators who served her
In pence nnd who Marled her so well
on tho difficult path of self-govern-mont.
Wo must help her onward and
upward; and helping her, wo shall
help oui solves.
Tho foregoing considerations caused
tho negotiation of tho treaty with
Cuba and Its ratification by tiro sen
ate. Thoy now. with equal force, sup
port tho legislation by tho congress
which by tho terms of tho treaty Is
necessary to render It operative. A
failure to enact such legislation would
como perilously near a repudiation of
tho pledged faith of tho nation.
I transmit herewith tho troaty, ns
nraendod by the senate and ratified
by' tho Cuban government.

Whlto Houso, Nov. 10, 1003.
A GFjEAT BABY SHOW.
Hundreds of Youngsters Exhibited In
an English Town.
At n baby show in England tho
other day there wore 430 entries,
which included seventeen pairs of
twins.
All tho babies wero between tho
agas of six and twelve months. About
half of tho total number of entries
had to be refused admission becauso
of tho lack of accommodation.
After a good deal of dlscus.ilon ns
to tho best way to exhibit tho young
sters it was decided that tho mothers
bring their youngsters to tho hall at
4 o'clock and "hold them all tho
time," except during tho wolghlng
process. So the ground lloor of tho
hall was covered with mothers hold
ing babies, and tiro galleries hold tho
friends of tho mothers.
Tho jury consisted of a number of
doctors, assisted by u nurse. Tho chief
points to bo considered In Judging
theso babies were: Dimensions and
bulk, muscular tone, firmness of flesh,
absence of rickets and Bkln disease.
While tho Jifdgos wero withdrawn
to dccldo tho giving of tho first prlzo
theso littlo competitors, who com
prised all typos of baby folk, bright
and dark, pale nnd rosy, fat and fra
gile, amused themselves billing nnd
cooing. When tiro prlzo was given,
with it was tho announcement that
tho best babies had boon nursed, not
bottled.
Cowa Try to Kill Fox.
Edgar Palmer, Jr., and John Mur
phy of Now Haven, Vt recently killed
a fox in a peculiar manner. Whllo
working on a farm their attention was
attracted by tho cows mnklng a dis
turbance In the pasturo around a
stono pile. On investigation they
found thnt tho cows had cornored a
fox iu a pilo of Btones nnd wero en
deavoring to get at him. Thoy rushed
to tho Bceno and with Btones and
rocks succeeded In killing tho fox.

"Trashy dime novels, with fantastic
titles and devotional books," says a
writer In Itusskalya, "are tho only
intellectual pabulum of tho Russian
pcoplo, and these books nro bo diffi
cult to procuro that it frequently hap
pens that a porson who once had

EASY TO KEEP WELL
IF YOU KNOW YOURSELF.
Keeping well Is mechnnlcnl. Eat
ing, working, sleeping, temperate on
Joymcnts and becoming animated over
nomo useful subject cover tho field.
It is better to pay n doctor to toll
you how to keep well than to treat
you after you nro sick. But so few
do this tho doctors hardly know what
to say when one tries tho plan.
A suggestive fact Is that n woman
with continually poor health will tako
n sick houso plant nnd bring it up Into
a flourishing state, and n mun who
never sees a well day will tako n sick
horse nrrd cure him. This Illustrates
tho power of special knowledge np
piled. Hut there are peoplo with sp
clal tendencies and Inherited diseases,
who break all rules of treatment and
preventive selenco, though theso ex
ceptions are no few that no ono need
plnre himself In tho list till ho bus
tried a modorn comae of systematic
sxcrclso with proper diet and right
lemedlea.
It took one doctor n long time to
learn thnt bread with coffee or fruit
with hi cad did not agree with him.
Ho found thnt potato and fruit or
coffeo went all right together. You
must know yourself and then do ns
well ns you know.
A Chicago doctor tells mo that u
cold salt watei bath before breakfast
Is a favorlto with him. He thinks
moro of soups than meats. Recently
radishes and lettuce gave him such
novero Indigestion that It required
a milk diet for dnjs to restore his
stomach. Hut for some people milk
is almost a poison, nnd lor diet thoy
cat graham waters or dry toast.
Another doctor tells urn he can eat
uti thing but liver nnd does not pay
much att ntlon to hluibolf except to
eat and sleep regularly. Ho has nat
ural force, physlcul harmony, Intuit
energy, and Hos healthily automat
ically. It U just as Important to havo
a little roseivo strength us It Is to
have emergency money.
Some peoplo beom to draw money
and health toward themselves con
tinually, whllo other. nppoar to
frighten theso blessings oh. There
are low general rules. Some really
need medicino often, but ninny will
never be healthy as long as they con
tinue dosing. It Hurely requires a
clear head to decldo for ouch caso
aright. Sonro aro built to walk many
miles a day and some aio always In
jured by a common stroll. One man
told mo that muscular exerclso ajways
destroyed hls appetite and that a
couple hours' work In his study made
him as hungry ns a hear.
Many oat too much. A few do not
eat nearly enough. Light foods and
no cold drinks for summer. Keep
away from very hot air If jou aro
golug Into veiy cold air winters. Bo
extra careful about clothing during
spring and fnll. Pluln food gves
rich blood. Do not experiment with
jour appetite. If you know by oxpoil
euco useful Information that would
add to this or havo a question you
would llko answered send It on Eat
f.ir strength. Speak for truth. Live
to spread good news.
The Pleasures of Memory.
Why does an old doctor, who Ik vis
iting tho city and calling at u medical
college, smile at thu students and
tholr zeal? Ho sees tho old times
ovor again when ho may hav-j won
dered whether to go without his laun
dry or skip a meal. Ho sees tho hu
morous experiences and the sweating
times Irr store for theso students. The
first case one doctor had was an un
usual ono, difficult and requiring In
stant action.
The Old and New.
A publisher was ready to attend a
convention. I thought of an idea use
till to him In his work at the con
vention, but I folt that ho hnd known
It longor than I had. Finally I decided
to give it to him anyway and then I
found It was now to him and ho was
very thankful to mo for It. since then
I have been braver.
Agents as Educators.
If you havo tlnro, listen and learn.
Was not Washington a book agent?
Tho porson who would sell to you
may grow famous and may not. By
asking a few questions and being po
lite though you buy not you will know
moro and give for next door zeal or
hopo to the one who Is trying to earn
living.
