THE FEAR THAT ABIDES.
"No one will fear a president," Mr. Wilson
.jonce said, "except those whom he can make
fear the elections." Ctfir democratic-friends are
-in the chilling shadow of that fear. As the
Metropolitan Magazine says, "at every demo--!
cratic" lovefeast these days-sits the ghost of
"Woodrow Wilson." Verily so. -
But some dare even' while they fear. Mr.
Bryan, for instance. ' He has not hesitated to
-ruse the knife upon both the quick and the dead
-'for postmortem or vivisectional explorations
"-'into the political purposes of his party's leaders
not in accord Vith his conceptions of policy and
"-righteousness. He did it in the Nebraska pri-
- maries with hearty abandon, and uncovered a
rlot tf signs and omens for democratic sooth-"-.sayersV.
Doubtless his promotion from a re
5; porter's table at the democratic national con
vention to the full authority of a delegate-at-large
has caused a "ghost dance" at the White
'.House even as it has attracted the wrathful
-.attention of he wet and Wilson wing of his
:. party. His talent for mischief-making is un
questioned, and with a brand" new commission
of leadership from -the democrats of Nebraska,
- won in a fight to the finish with the friends of
I the president and the administration's policies,
" there can belittle doubt in what direction his
, distracting activities will be turned. ' '
i When ie came up from one ofhis winter
- homes in the south to face foul political weather
I there were those who sougkt to strip and lasb
V.him into obscurity and impotence. But they
". opened their mouths in vain; they sowed their
J'seed in vain; they used many political medicines
, in vain. The thirsty reviled him, but he heeded
;-them not. The president's cohbrts sought his
: undoing, ,but were repulsed.
A handy politician is.W. J. B., and sly,
.'devilish sly. He always that is, nearly always
" has the handle of an issue in his grip that
confounds his foes. What he will do at San
) Francisco is on the knees of the gods, but that
he will' be doing something the thick and thin
. followers of W. W. will despise is certain.
Mike Way for Beans.
The humble dry white bean sells for about
three times what itrought before the war, but
at that it is worth while. Some families never
have learned the delights which linger in the
gentle but, energetic and nourishing bean. It
is to them a thing too common, too plebeian, too
cheap maybe, to win a place on their mahegany
dining tables, and they taboo it as a food fit
only for a poor purse, and thereby unwittingly
deny themselves what would be as costly a
luxury as terrapin or dodo eggs if it were scarce
instead of plentiful. To them it is on the same
gastronomic scale as dried apple pie and other
really luscious things a perverse urban popula
tion has lost the art of preparing for the table.
The date of the original bean is lost in the
dim corridors of prehistoric times in Asia, al
though most of its cultivated varieties are of
American origin, and by the genius of accom
plished home cooks have become prims favor
ites in the diet of the discriminating few who
know and seek the most delicious things to eat
Consider bean soup. Not the thin, watery,
salty fraud usually perpetrated in hotels and
restaurants, but the real thing made by a mis
tress of the wonderful properties of the whole
some seed, who knows how to draw out, sub
due, flavor and develop its richness into most
palatable form. Such bean soup, common
enough thirty years ago, is a splendid triumph
of culinary art. It is rich and creamyT' In it
nestle all the nutriment and vitality of the pulp,
minus its skin, with certain additions worthy'
the genius of a professional chef. One" of these
ingredients we remember the delectatile flakes
of the hard-boiled yellow of eggs that
crowned with gold a food fit for kings. ,
, - Consider baked beans. They are bread and
meat and -wine combined as fuel for achieve
ment and strength. Rich with tender fat pork,
garnished with -browned bacon here and there,
slightly reminiscent of onion, they call up vis
ions of glutton's heaven, so satisfying and al
together welcome are they to the little red lane.
In truth they who banish beans from their
diet go through life ignorant of a most com
forting and filling pleasure. If they do it
through ignorance there is yet time for them to
learn; if an unworthy prejudice controls" them,
or if they neglect the bean because it js not
stylish, their sins be on their "own defrauded,
stomachs! .They deserve nothing but ridicule,
and should never be admitted into the happy
and contented Brotherhood of Bean Eaters.
We dare say these things in defiance of the
dictum of a mdclcrn medical specialist rho dc- j
scribed beans some ten years ago as "cneap.
poison6us and nasty." Perhaps they were, as
served in his luxurious hotel; and. he might add
com' bread and prunes to his list of cheap'and
nasty foods. -There was a time when tomatoes
also were held to be poisonous. Bft truth ulti
mately shines through -crrcr.

Conviction of Caillaux. C ,
Another .interesting chapter of 'French his
i tory has been advanced by the action of the
7 senate, sitting as a high court, in convicting
"Joseph Caillaux of "commerce and corre-
spondence with the enemy." A former premier
; of France, man of undoubted political ability
.'."and influence, Caillaux has been something of
,'a storm center for many years. At 'the time of
.".the 'Morrocan affair, when the action of Ger
rjnany nearly precipitated the world war, Cail-
,-)aux was openly accused of favoring the kaiser's
"views and of a willingness to betray France to
-avoid war. His pacifist inclinations, at least so
j'far as Germany was concerned, came out again
in 1914, and it is fairly well established that he
r '"was, in cjose communication with those who
sought tff bring France to ask for a separate
i' peace. v
y The extent of the operations so carried on
has been shown to be greater than at first'be
Heved. Much that was brought outMm the trial
of Bolo Taslia, who wa.s shot to death after
' being convicted, was not only substantiated but
supplemented at the trial of Caillaux. One
branch of the intrigue reached the United States,
where its ramifications were such as to very
t closely connect it with the propaganda carried
x on by German agentSy Italy, too, as included
in the plot, and its principals were energetic,
capable men, whose activities provided consid
erable trouble for the Allies.
f Clemenceau exposed their machinations,
" -arrested such of the principals as he could lay
i..hands on, and succeeded in securing a sentence,
of death of Bolo Pasha, an adventurer in politi
- cal life, but a danger to France.' Caillaux was
: saved from this by the abandonment cf the
charge of treason against liim, perhaps an ex
pedient exhibition of governmental clemency,
. put is now in the presence of:banishrnent
i Incidental to His case is the revival of the
i trial of his former wife for the murder el the
editor of Figaro whom she shot because of his
.attacks on her husband while he was a member
,: of the, cabinet. The whole affair provides a
V curiously1 interesting portion of the record of
; French politics, and its echo will be heard for
; many a year to come, just as Boulanger and

- . His Dear United States.
What a lesson for those who hold in light
, esteem the privileges of American citizenship
f lies in the suicide of the alien Austrian, Mike
'Dragich of Los Angeles, this week. He quar
reled with a companion who told him he would
be . deported. Mike struggled with the wioked
" threat all night. The next morning he placed
two American flags in the window of his room,
kissed them and shot himself. When people in
r the house rushed to him he was fondly whisper
er ing, "My United Statesfmy United States," with
his dying breathy
He had learned to love tfie United States
r passionately, so deeply that his belief that he
? would have to leave the country was worse
", than death to him. HV cherished the country
and its flag. All honor to him! And there are
-" men in this land of the free, born on its soil,
educated in its schools, grown prosperous by its
opportunities, who neglect the fundamental duty
of their Jizcnship, that of participating in its
Amundsen Off for the Pole.
News that Captain Roald 'Amundsen
reached a far-awav Siberian base from which
he expects to make a dash for the North Pole
must excite the imagination of any who has
even casually followed the story of this quest.
Pearv undoubtedly reached the pole, but he
was unable to make any discoveries or ex
tensive examination, beyond such observations
a.s were essential fo establishing the fact tl.at ht
stood on top of the earth, and planted the
American flag on an ice hummock there.
Stefansson has approached near enough to set
tle the fact that the North Pole is open sea, of
unknown depth, the short scunding line he pos
sessed having been entirely "paid 'out without
reaching bottom. vBeyond this, and some in
definite knowledge as to the-set of the currents,
little is knownof the absolute north end. .
Amundsen is going out better equipped for
the venture than Uiy of his predecessors. He
is- prtovisioifcd for a four-year stay, and it is
thought he will bring back much information
that will be of service to science. Tt was he
who, moving independently, anticipated, by a
few short hours 'the triumph of the . gallant
Robert Falcon Scott and his, devoted tfarty,
who made their stand at the South Pole only
little while after Amundsen and his companions
had left the placo. The romance and the trage'dy
of this adventure is beyond expression, espe
cially when the lamentable end of Captain Scott
and his company isconsidered.
We may have to wait many months ' for
definite reports from Amundsen's latest enter
prise, but it may be accepted as settled that no
progress the World makes in any way while he
is gone will deter it from hearing with respect
and concern the word he brings or sends,back.
- Round Up the Delinquents.
If the office of the internal revenue commis
sioner has information to justify its belief that
over 300,000 taxpayers have evaded taxes since
the country went to war,' the remedy is in its
hands. Delinquents should bepirVsued effect
ively. It is possible that in some cases good
reason may be found for the failure 6f the in
dividual to comply with the law. Such may be
dealt with according to the discretion of the
commissioner. The man vajo has willfully
shirked his responsibilities, and there are plenty
of them, should be made to feel the might of
the government. Appeals to the patriotism of
such men are futile. They found themselves'
suddenly in possession of greater wealth or in
comes than they had ever thought to obtain.
This turned, their heads, warped their judgment
and in a suddenly aroused passion of greed, they
have sought to retain all of that a' share of
which the government has a, -just and in
disputable claim. By their action they have put
a heavfer burde on those who cheerfully met
-the tremendous levies. Even justice requires
that none of these tax shirkers be allowed to
get away.
The 4enim club may yet become a factor hi
domestic life. It is a much better thing than
"buy a' bale of cotton" for boosting that game.

How to Keep Well
By Dr. W. A. EVANS
i I
TESTING SCHOOL CHILDREN
From the standpoint of the happi
ness of the child,, behavior and con
duct are more important than men
tal capacl'. A mentally incapable
child generally gets along well with
other childrtiw A child whose con
duct is pecuIiatSdoes not get along
with other children, is hard to teach
and train and, in addition, may dis
turb the entire .schoolroom. -
From the standpoint of the teach
er, .behavior is -the more important
of the two. And yet beyond a su
perficial rating on deportment the
teacher gives no special thought to
the behavior or conduct of the child.
It would be worth her while to at
tempt to analyze the conduct of each
child in her room with a view to
picking out the misfits. "v.
Once they are understood, the rea
son for their conduct analyzed, once
they are properly classified a to
type, she is on the way toward less
ening her troubles. Some of the pe
culiar children can be made to fit in,
some can be handled by special
treatment and some can be trans
ferred to special rooms.
First, the teaeher must observe
the behavior of each pupil in the
schoolroom and on, the playground.
The fundamental question 'is-- Does
the child fit in? If the answer is
not then certain other questions can
oe asKea ana answered.
Subsidiary questions bearing on
the main question are Does he en
gage in competitions normally?
Does he play the same games as the
other boys of his oWn age? Is he
companionable, friendly and fairly
popular with other boys? '
As the result of observation the
teacher will determine within one
montn mat nine-tentns or tne mem
bers of - the class clearly doit in.
In temperament, emotions, be
havior and' conduct they are easily
above the doubtful line. Then let
her score the remaining 10 per cent
on a special score card. The unde
sirable qualities can bo checked.
The number of checks should
range between one and four,.depend-
etn on the degree of any bad qual
ity. Let us say excitability is being
marked.1.' One check would mean
that the child was recognized as be
ing mildly excitable; four checks as
meaning that the quality was ex
treme. A child With one or more
bad qualities marked with four
checks should come in for further
study either by the teacher or by a
trained psychologist.
Perhaps, all such children can be
divided among the following groups.
The method of training the child out
of its asocial or antisocial state, of
making it fit in, will depend on the
groupto which it belonss. Terman
estimates that in any student body
about 5 per cent of the pupils will,
be abnormal enough; in tempera
ment to make them difficult in the
schoolroom.
Terman suggests the following
points for observation. The list
might well be used by the teacher to
check on: Disturbance of motor con
trol, ovetmobility of facial muscles,
twitchings, spasmodic movements of
any kind, bad co-ordination, drop
ping things, jerky handwriting, in
ability to sit still, stuttering, bluster
ing, rapid speech, nail biting, chew
ing pencil, frequent requests to go
tfut." irritability, bad tejnper, laughs
lying or stealing, cruelty, finical hab
its, eccentricity or queerness. dis
turbed sleep, morbid fears, chronic
uneasiness, child an outcast, indica
tions of nervous exhaustion, associat
ed physical defects.
Good for Peristalsis.
' W. H. T. writes: "I regret to see
your O. K. on gum chewing. All
doctors do not agree with ou. "The
Habit of gum chewing has become so
widespread and Is indulged in so
constantly even in public places that
it would seem to be a menace to the
nervous system. It is offensive to
most persons of refinement. It de
tracts from' the good looks of our
women and girls. It would seem to
overdevelop the muscles of tha face.
Do consider esthetics as well as
physiology."
REPLY.
You make me say much mare than
I said1. When digestion is slow and
the stomach feels full chewing gum
gives relief. It does this by stimu
lating peristalsis and in some meas.
ure by promoting secretions. Poorly
poised, nervous people chew gum
just as they bite their finger nails.
Gum chewing 13 an effect with a
slight tendency to react as a cause.
Esthetics and pulchritude belong in
he beauty and behavior columns.
