DECLARES WOMEN TO BLAME
Writsr Asserts Selfishness of Her Sex
Frequently Is Responsible for
Man Being a Failure.
A woman contributor to Ihe Woman's
Home Companion, in Ihe course
of an article on "The Country of
Our Dreams," makes the following
statements:
"Whenever there is a man who is
a failure, look, and there you will
generally find not far from him in
his life some girl or a woman who
was selfish. I could show you many
such, who, giving no large service
themselves, prevent serviceahleness
in the lives of the men they influ?
*?- ?need; extravagant women, ambitious
women, pretty women, senseless
women, emotional and nervous women,
who actually hinder men from

"To put down personal selfishness,
to go cheerfully about our tasks, to

cntly with the men we know?you
may call these humble ways, but
they are far-reaching; and, al*>ve all,
they are a woman's ways of patriotism,
such patriotism as shall at last
mold for us, as 1 think neither votes
fhr women nor any other agency can,
quite so potently, the country of our
dreams."
PLEASANT OUTLOOK FOR JAPS
Coming Division of the World, Foretold
by Oriental Artist, Gives That
Race Commanding Position.
k A prophetic map of the world
I published in a recent issue of Tokyo
Puck has been the cause of indig
nant and amused comment in the
Australian papers, according to advices
received from Sydney.
The map shows the British Em
pire reduced to the British Isles, India
and Canada. All British African
possessions are in the hands of
a black republic.
f Australia and New Zealand, Fiji,
the Fast Indies and Manchuria are
Japanese, and Persia is credited to
Bussia.
Below the map are some figures
giving the relative standings of the
nations of the earth when the Japanese
artist's dreams coine true.
Japan is in the first place, England
is second, United States third,
i China fourth, Madagascar (used as

K the black African republic seventh,

Discovery by European Scientist

The results of experiments to find
the origin of cancer have been published
by Prof. Johannes Fibigcr, director
of the Pathological institute ai

His researches show that cancepoui
growths in the esophagus and stone

The experiments are considered o
great importance to seekers for i
cure of cancer, as they form the firs
experimental production of the dia
