A certain advanced set of women 1n Japan have as their organ a woman’s paper entitled the “Blue Stocking,” or the Japanese equivalent for that name. This set of women claims social equal- ity with men, and works for the puri- fication of Japanese society. The jour- nal has been suppressed several times for the expression of what the Japa- nese called “dangerous thoughts.” In- cluded in these are scientific criticism of Japanese history and of the old Japanese records about the imperial family, doubts as to the patriotism of General Nogi’s suicide, and criticism of police methods. A meeting was held lately under the auspices of the “Blue Stocking” that may result in the birth of a definite woman suffrage move- ment in Japan. Prince’s Heaps of Names. Prince Albert, the king’s second son, who has been visiting the Colonial possessions as a cadet on board the “Cumberland,” has a reputation for an innocent sort of smartness which he fully maintained at Barbadoes. While on shore the lad was surrounded by a bevy of girls who eagerly begged him to sign their autograph books. The prince looked glum and then replied, “lI write awfully badly, and I have heaps of names, do you want them all?” This latter remark, it needs hardly to be added, was a hit at the string of names with which he was christened, Albert, Frederick, Arthur, George. Early Parcels Post. As long ago as the seventeenth cen- tury the attempt was made to prepay letters by using stamps. In 1653 Paris tried a system that even pro- vided pillar boxes for the letters, wuich were to have a billet, price 1 sol, attached to the letter or parcel. The experiment met the usual experi- ence of the pioneer—ridicule. Mice were dropped into the letter boxes and when the letters came to be col- lected it was found that the animals had made a hearty meal of them. As nobody could be sure of the fate of the parcels, the experiment came to a sudden end. Possibly Related to King Cole. Alfonso of Spain seems to get more genuine amusement out of his job than most other living monarchs, not-_ witkstanding the fact that an uncom- fortably large part of his time is spent iin dodging the assassin’s bullet. The divinity that doth hedge a king |doesn’t trouble him in the least; he takes chances, goes freely among his [subjects and often contrives to in- crease his popularity by some shrewd ior humorous remark. Teaching Bobby. The whole family had been patient- Ir trying to teach three-year-old Bob- by to be polite, and particularly to say “No, thank you.” They had com- pany for dinner one day and when the eets were offered her she shook her ead. “Don’t you want some?” asked big sister, encouragingly. “No,” said Bobby, shortly... “No what?” asked big sister sweetly and more encourag- ingly. “No beets,” scowled Bobby. Few Immigrants to South Africa. . The official year book of the South African customs statistical bureau shows that, among Europeans, the ex- cess of arrivals over departures from the union amounted to about five hun- dred persons. The chief increase was fin respect of women. Among Asiatic and other colored races the departures were considerably in excess of arriv- als. Cause of “Cracks.” The tissues of the body have more (salts than are usually found in fresh 'water. When you have more salt on lone side of an animal membrane than on the other, nature tries to equalize ‘the amount on both sides. Salts, leaving the tissues of the hands to go into the water, leave the cells partly emptied of their contents. "They do not hold together well, and “cracks” result.—St. Nicholas. Made Tomb for Queen Bee. Elden Harriman made a strange discovery this spring when he opened a hive of bees. The queen bee had died in the winter and the other bees stood her up straight on the bottom of the hive and built a little wall of their wax around her, after which they left the hive.—Bangor (Me.) Dis- patch, Their Sense of Humor. “Why,” asks Gertrude Atherton, “should a woman murder her hus- band?” It's a difficult question, Ger- trude, but our own personal guess is that most of them are actuated by a desire to exploit the delicious fund of humor they possess.—Philadelphia Inquirer, Other Things. There {8 too much of a general in- clination to sniff or to speak disparag- ingly of the rolling stone. The rolling stone knows in the heart of him that there are other worth-while things in the world besides moss. He is happy in that he can do his work and have his fun at the same time. To Set Colors. For lavender, use one tablespoonful sugar of lead to one gallon of water; for blue, one-half cup of vinegar to one gallon of water; for black or pink, two cups of salt to one gallon of water. —Home Department, National Maga- zine for May. i PURITAN AND THE SABBATH Observance of Day ef Rest Undoubt- edly Necessary to the Nation's Well Being. All forward looking minds must feel some apprehension for the mental, moral and especially the physical well being of the American people, as they see how the Sabbath is more and more given over to business and pleasure, declares the Universalist Leader. No nation can be strong unless it has a rest day every week; no man or com- munity can be spiritually strong un- less he or it sets aside and uses the Sabbath for worship of the unseen spiritual power that made and upholds the universe and its freight of life. Gladstone attributed much of his vig- orous health and his long life to the fact that nothing, not even cabinet making, ever prevented him from at- tending church. The puritan in Amer- ica gave the enduring moral fiber to our national life. His sabbatarianism was a portion of this might in him; he reverenced God, he mastered earth. A revival of puritanic sabbatarian- ism would greatly benefit this land of ours. Modern civilization would, of course, make the old sabbath quiet, much different than it was in the primitive communities of three gener- ations ago, but we are noisy about many needless things, sports that do not rest, amusements that do not recreate, business that does not yield a permanent profit. Consider the old adage: “The Sabbath is for works of mercy and necessity only.” One phase of the puritan life has long appealed to us, the fact that so little cooking was done on Sunday. The Sunday meals were prepared on Saturday. The slave of the cook stove was manumitted on the Sabbath. Could we not imitate that custom and have simpler meals on the Sabbath, thus giving freedom to worship to our mod- ern kitchen bondwoman, whether mother or hired servant? GET SUGAR FROM SAWDUST Chemically Prepared Material Found by Scientists to Be Valuable Food for Animals. In the course of a paper read before the London Royal Society of Arts, A. Zimmerman described a process by which sugar might be manufactured from sawdust. In its natural state, he pointed out, says London Tit-Bits, wood contains no sugar, but when subjected in closed retorts to digestion with a weak sul- phurous acid solution under pressure of six to seven atmospheres a very remarkable transmutation takes place, as much as 25 per cent. of the mate- rial being converted into sugar. In this Mr. Zimmerman claims that we have a valuable feeding stuff for horses, cattle and sheep. Draft horses in whose daily ration four pounds of ‘“cacchulose-molasses’” were substituted for four pounds of oats were kept under observation for seven months and were all found to have increased in weight, while a colt which was in so weak a condition that veterinary surgeons advised its destruction put on 260 pounds in six months and is now in excellent condi- tion. "ow Then He Didn't Want Them. Dejectedly twirling his thumbs the clerk sat in the box office of the Frivolity theater. A depressing air of failure hung over the theater, and it looked as though the piece would have to be withdrawn very shortly. Suddenly he perked up as a coun- trified man and his wife came in, fol- lowed by their three daughters and two sons. “Have you got seven seats in the middle of the second row for to- night?” asked paterfamilias. The box office man made a pretense of examining the plan of seats. “Yes, I find they are vacant, sir,” said he, trying to repress his excite ment. “Shall I book them for you, sir?” “Er—no, I think not,” said the man from the country. “If you've got those seats on your hands it seems to me the play can’t be up to much! ‘Good morning!” Diagnosis by Electricity. For the benefit of the nervous cases that come to the doctor, it has been asserted by Scripture that it is just as necessary to know how emotional they are as it is to know how high the temperature is in a case of fever. Moreover, in many cases it is neces- sary to find out what experiences in the past or present life of the patient produce emotions. For this purpose the patient sits at ease with hands on the electrodes, which may be so con- cealed in the arms of his chair that he is unaware that the most intimate processes of his soul are being reg- istered as various words are spoken or various topics of conversation are dis- cussed, the galvanometer showing when a sensitive subject has been touched.—Fred W. Eastman, in Har- per’s Magazine. In Wrong. Jackson—Bunker has got himself into a nice fix. Johnson—How ? Jackson—He wrote an article on “The Ideal Wife” for a ladies’ paper last month. Johnson—Well, what's that to do with his present fix? Jackson—Somebody told his wife about it, and she’s been reading the thing over during the past two days, trying to discover a single trait wherein his ideal resembles her. She hasn't found it, and Bunker dines in the city now. Somewhat Chary of Praise, | The mountaineers of Virginia and Tennessee are notoriously chary of praise. Miss Babbitt, the social work- er who came down from the north, es- tablished a mission among the “co- vites,” and labored with them, found the people hard to get along with and said so. But there was another side of it. A covite trader came into the lit- tle college town near by one day and was questioned by one of the profes- sors. “John,” asked the professor, “how long has Miss Babbitt been out In Lost Cove?” “Nigh onto four years,” answered John. “The people like her, don’t they?” “Some.” “But she’s a mighty good woman, John,” urged the professor. “She’s out there working to help you and your children. I've heard a lot about the good she’s done.” “Wa’all,” said John reluctantly, “I will say she ain't doin’ no harm.” The Family Horse. A family horse never seems to be going anywhere in particular until it is going home.—From the Maryville Tribune. There are a great many medicines which will act on the bowels and liver with satisfactory results for the time being. Those who buy and use such medicines, without caring for more than immediate results are very apt to find themselves at last the victims of a medi- cine which has broken down their strength. In the use of laxatives, the fu- ture benefit should be taken into consid- eration. The excellent laxative qualities of Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets, are the more appreciated because they don’t make victims of the pill habit. They are essentially the safe and reliable pill for family and household use. ——The WATCHMAN enjoys the proud distinction of being the best and cleanest county paper published. Hood’s Sarsaparilla. Do You Suffer From Backache? When your kidneys are weak and tor- pid they do not properly perform their functions; your back aches and you do not feel like doing much of anything. You are likely to be despondent and to borrow trouble, just as if you hadn’t enough al- ready. Don’t be a victim any longer. The old reliable medicine, Hood’s Sar- saparilla, gives strength and tone to the kidneys and builds up the whole system. Hood’s Sarsaparilla is a peculiar com- bination of roots, barks and herbs. No other medicine acts like it, because no other medicine has the same formula or ingredients. Accept no substitute, but indie on having Hood's, and get it today. Coal and Wood. A. G.
