THURSDAY. DECEMBER », IBM. What Trua Order la. Undy^ the head of vital thing* order should be written In large capital a. write* Elizabeth Emery. In the Home Beautiful. No houee la beautiful If 1U laws are disregarded. The order that faints at the sight of a speck of dust, the order that locates every chair and table by a chalk mark, the order that cannot tolerate a misplaced book, is not to be thus written. This order is not vital. It was once called good housekeeping, but it is not considered good home-making, and never can be. It has wrecked homes quite as success fully as the saloon. The order - tba makes for restfulness and comfort U vital. It cannot exist in crowded rooms. Furniture is made to be used, and books are made to be read. It the disarranging of a chali/or the mis placing of a book upsets the order of a room, something is wrong, and th» “something" la the crowded condition. Get rid of the superfluous. Most rooms have too many pieces of furniture, ant all rooms have too many things. Slnr pllcity of arrangement is *o bound up with order and The absence of the au perfluons that It cannot well be separated. A few pictures, chosen to accord with the room, books that are placed within the reach of those whe use them, lamps that are located where they are needed, flowers that are ar ranged with a Japanese feeling for the value of the leaf and stem, ere exprea sions of a love for a simple arrangement. Beauty no leas than comfort U dependent upon this vital principle. Patriotism Their Only Religion. The emperor and the empire, the empire that is the people, these constitute the real religion of Japan, the great Idea through the divine virtue of which the Japanete have accounted for themselves before the wondering eyes of a Christian world, according to LAlle’a Weekly. For his Imperial majesty. Emperor Mltauhlto. the little brown soldiers of Japan Joyously die. and for him do the thousands of bereaved ones sailer in proud silence that dreams In great peace of an after ward. And it U not weak indifference they display, these tearless ones; It U strength, the mightiest ever seen on earth. By thousands they hear the grim news that robs them of all reason lor living, and by thousands they retreat In splendid awe, tempered, bless God. by patriotic pride that has not its equal under the shining sun. Grief invisible racks the soul of Japan while ah* marches proudly on with a joy note in /her war,song

'During my absence from the state." said Mr. Doug Us. “I had consultations with Lieutenant General Miles about military affairs in Massachusetts. The ideas of General Miles and myself concerning these affairs are In exact accord. and General Miles will undoubtedly be my chief military adviser during my administration.

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE. (CONTINUED FROM THIRD PAGE,

The strong arm of the government in enforcing respect for its Just rights in International matters Is the navy of the United States. I most earueotly recommend that there be no lialt la the work of upbuilding the American uary. We have undertaken to LiQild the tsthmlan canal. We have undertaken te secure for ourselves our Just share Id the trade of the orient. We have undertaken to protect our cltlzena from Improiier treatment in foreign lands. We continue atendlly to Insist on th# application of the Monroe doctrine to the western hemisphere. Unless our attitude In these and all similar matten is to be a mere boastful sham we cannot afford to abandon oar naval programme. Onr voice Is now potent for pcac* and 1* so potent because ws ar# hot afraid of war. But our protestations upon behalf of pence would neither receive nor deserve the ■lightest attention If we were impotent to make them good. THE ARMY. Within the last three years the United States has aet an example in disarmament where disarmament was proper. By law our army is fixed at a maximum of 100.000 and a minimum of 00.000 men. Whew there was Insurrection In the Philippines we kept the army at the maxlmnip. Peace came la the Philippi net. and now oar army has been reduced to the minimum at which it I* possible to' keep it with due regard to Its efficiency. We should be *h le - in the event of some sadden rgency. to pat Into the field one first class army corps, which should bs. as a whole, at least the equal of any body of troops of like number belonging to any other nation. Great progress has been made in protecting onr coasts ay adequate fortifications with sufficient guns. We should, however, pay much more b than at present to the development of an extensive system of testing mines for use In all our more important harbors. These mines hare been proved to be a most formidable safeguard against hostile fleets. THE PHILIPPINES In the Philippine Islands there has been during the past year a cpntlnua don of the steady progress »hleh ha* obtained ever since our troops definitely got the upper band of the Insurgents. The Philippine people, or. speak more accurately, the many tribes and even races sundered from one another more or leas sharply who go to make up the people of the Philippine Islands, contain many element* of good, and some elements which we have a right to hope stand for progress. At present they are utterly Incapable of existing In independence nt ail or of building up a civiUsadon of their ewn. I firmly believe that we can beljy them to rise higher and higher In the scale of civilization and of capacity for self government and I moot earnestly hope that In the end they will be able to stand. If not endroty alone, yet In some such relation to the United States aa Cuba i stands. This end Is not yet In eight and it may be indefinitely postponed if oar people are foolish enough to torn the attention of the Filipino* away from the problems of achieving moral and material prosperity, of working for a stable, orderly and Just government, and toward foolish and dangerous Intrigue* for a complete independence for which they are as yet totally unfit On the other hand, our people most keep steadily befopr their mind* the fact that the Justification for our stay in the Philippines must ultimately rest chiefly upon the good we are able to do In the islands. I do not overlook' the fact that in the development of oar Interests in toe Pacific ocean along its coasts the Philippines have played and will play an important part and that our Interests have been served in more than one way by the poe session of the islands. But our chief reason’ for continuing to bold them must be that we ought in good faith to try .to do our share of toe world's work, and this particular piece of work has been imposed upon us by the results of the war with Spain. We are endaavorlng to develop the natives themselves so that they shall taka an ever Increasing share in their own government and. as far aa is pendant we an already admitting their raptetontstivee to a governmental equality i ear own.
