HAD AN INTERESTING CAREER Lived In Two Worlds, the World of Feudalism and the Present World of Banks and Limited Companies. Toklo. Huron HIiiliiiMiwa, pri'siili'iit of the First Nutloniil bank of Japun, resigned his poxltlon at the mutual meeting of t lie bunk ti ml retired Into private life. Ho Is sevinty-Nlx yearn of ago. Ho prnpoMes to devote tli? re uiulnlns; yenrs of lils life to the no tnotlon of charltublo works nml the betterment of International relations, particularly between Japan nml the United States. The baron Is well known In Anierlcu to which ho made Ms last visit rurly this year. When In New York ho had Umg eoiiHiillallons with leading Ameri can Ammeters, bis object being to In terext them In the proHltlons which Japan Intends to exploit In China. "Japan has the brnlint, America hns tho money," wuh In effect what he snld In tfylng to perMiade Wall "treet moueyed men to tnke nn IntcreHt In the buslne.ss. The proposal wus turned down. New York business men thought If they were golni; to liud tho mouey Baron Shibusawa. they V'ultl provide the brains ns well. Tho suggestion was n sort of second edition of one which Count Okumn made to England a year before wlieu he threw nut the Idea that tho Anglo Japanese alliance xlnuild become nn economic as well as a military pact. He made practically the biiiiiu proposi tion "Japan hns the experience, Kng land has tho cash" but the Krltlshcr enmo to tho conclusion without any sieclul delay that they hnrt enough brains to exploit China with their own money If they wanted. Lived in Two Worlds. Like every old man In Japan, Huron Slillnisawa has lived In two words a world of feudalism and two-sworded Kiiniurnl nnd the present world of, Himmg other things, bunks and limited cmnpnnles. Ho entered the govern ment service under tho old regime while the emperor who died three years ago was still virtually a recluse In Kyoto and the empire was ruled by the Tokugawa Shoguno. Slilliusawa's first mission out of Jnpun wus an education' al trip to Europe with one of the Sho gun's sons who did not drenni that his family's tenure of tho sovereignty of Japan was over. This was In 1W7-CS when Andrew Johnson was president of tho United States In the Interval between Lincoln's assassination and Grant's election. He returned and went Into the government after the upset of Rhogunate and wus an official until 1873 when he resigned over a differ ence with the nuance minister of the day and never entered politics again. Instead, he founded the First bank, so culled because It was tho first bank In Japan on modern lines. That was 41) years ago and In thn' long time Huron Shibusuwn moved on from one tlunti- rlnl success to another until In UK)D be was president of 70 concerns. When ho started the First bank its capital was a million nud a quarter dollars borrowed money uow It Is ten and threc-qunrtcr million dollars, or If re serve fund Is counted In fifteen mil lion. This Is not the first time that the baron has thought of retiring. In 1!H1 ho was III and not knowing whether he would live, made a will lu which he named as successor In the presidency of tho First bank, Mr. Vnnoslilne Su Hukl, the manager who now actually succeeds his old chief. Then In lUUo he wus again 111 and he resigned from many of his positions, but picked them all up again when he recuperated. His Her First Saloon at 18. Chicago.

Why He Resigned. Interviewed as to his reasons for re tirement the baron snld: "Tho child Is grown nnd able to walk by himself," meaning that Japunese finance wnx now sn advanced that his Inlluence Is no longer needed. Hut even now It docs not sem qnito clear that the veteran intends really to cut himself adrift from the world where bis long life hns boon spent, for he added that be would still contribute to the. commercial and Industrial Interests of the nation be side taking on active part In work for a better understanding between Japan and other countries. When the Kokusiii News agency was founded three years ago In order to disseminate the 'true truth" about Japan by cables and news. the baron became president of the com pany, a post he still holds. This com pany owns the Japan Times and Japan Dally Mull, two newspapers prlnlid In F.ngllsh In Toklo, and controls the Ileii ler cable service, both Inward und out ward from Japan. His retirement gives rise to the ques tion of who will be bis successor ns leader of the financial world of Japan. There Is no single man in sight who Is big enough to fill his chair. The can didates with the best chance lire thought to be Mr. It. Nakano, president of the Toklo chamber of commerce; Mr. It. Fujiiyama, vice president of the same body, and Mr. S. Ohashl. who was vice president until last year. COMES BACK AFTER 52 YEARS Nidler Sees Spot on Site of Seattle Where Indians Once Chased Him. Spokane, Wash.

This, willi Ihe Idea of Improving the. breed of hens wllh the hopes llint their progeny which escapes punching, scrambling and so on will be even more healthy and egg-fruitful.

The royal material testing office nt Gross-Llchterfelde, a suburb of Berlin, announces tho interesting discovery that pnper can be mituinao Hured from cotton stnlks. The discov ery Is not considered of much Impor tance for Germany, which produces no cotton, but is pointed to as of vast Importance to the United States be cause of tho shortage of paper reported In that couutry. The stnlks were cut and ground, boiled and bleached, nud the puper-muking then proceeded after tho usual methods. PROHIBITION AND THE FARMER. There ore In tne United States about 10,000,000 farmers, nnd they constitute ten per cent of tbo entire population. The value of their an nual products Is approximately $10.- 000,000,000, or ?l,(Hi0 for each farm er. Tho llnuor interests claim that should prohibition prevail the farm ers will bo deprived of their market for this largo amount o produce. There Is another side to this ques tion. Mr. diaries Stel.lo has made a careful study of the situation. Ho says: "The liquor Industry purchases every year about $100,000,000 worth of produce from tho fanner, and therefore tho liquor Industry con sumes Just ono per cent of all that the former produces, thut Is, J10 for pach farmer In the United Stutes. The question Is, what will the poor farm er1 do with his $10 worth of produce which the liquor Industry cunnot pur chase when It Is put out of business? There are over 20,000,000 families in the United States which would pur chase tho stuff now sold to the liquor men. According to a study mndo by the department of labor of the United States, the average workingmun's family spends annually about $500 for food. This would make a total of at least $10,000,000,000 per year for the 20,000,000 fumllles. "If the 20,000,000 families were each to Incrense their purchasing power ono per cent, or $5 per year, It would amount to exactly $100,000,000 tho sum of the liquor men's purchnses from tho farmer. Idt let us assume that tho retail figure ut which tho av erage futility would bo compelled to buy Is twice as high at the liquor men pay. This would Increuse the amount necessary to be purchased to $10 per year for each family, or about twenty cents per week. There can be no donbt that, with the Increasing Darning power and spending ability of the average worklngnian's family due lo the abolition of the liquor trnllic, the average family will easily wish to spend at least twenty cents more per week for cherries, peaches, apples, ber ries and the various forms of grain, to sny nothing about Hour nnd bread nud other materials which come piimnrlly from tho farm." WHERE YOUR TAXES CO. During the campaign of 191-1 for statu prohibition in Washington a busi ness man In the city of Seattle was ap proached by a friend with the ques tion, "What do you think of the state wido prohibition movement? lo you think It will win?" "Yes, It will win, because It ought to win." "Why, I thought you were nn ndvo-' catc of the principles of Individual re sponsibility, personal liberty, etc." "So I nm. So I ntn. That's Just tho point. The liquor business is nn In fringement on my personal liberty nnd I'll prove It to you. Xow, I pay $0,- 000 a year taxes for what?

You call this a free country?" FLIRTING WITH UNDERTAKER. Here Is something that may give tho beer drinker pause: In Professor llelnitzer's prisms, displayed conspic uously In the nntl-ulcohol exhibitions of Europe, one cube represents a pint of pure alcohol enough to kill a man on tho spot. Alongside of this Is a prism standing for 14 0-10 pints of al cohol, the amount a man who drinks a pint of beer dally takes Into his sys tem each year. It is a relatively sim ple problem to estimate from thrso comparisons Just to what extent nnd how fatuously a beer drinker In pur suing his favorite avocation Is flirting with the undertaker. Pr. Edwin F. Bowers. CONVERTED BY EVIDENCE. Those who were honestly opposed, as I was, to prohibition in Washing ton and Oregon, have been converted to It, as I have been, by the actual evidence that prohibition is a fine thing from a business standpoint. No city and no community can afford to have saloons. They ore too expen sive, morally and economically. In a very few years there will not be a licensed saloon in the wholo country. RESULTS OF NO LICENSE. Mayor Pnul M. Collins of Teotone, III., spenking before the Woman's Voting league, turned tho spotlight on financial conditions since the town hns been dry. Two years ago tho village wus $1,000 In debt. On January 1, 191C, said the mayor, there wus a sur plus of $1,000 In the treasury and credits amounting to JUKI. A $1,000 water bond, due In 1917, has been paid also. This was accomplished notwithstanding the loss of $4,000 an nual liquor license revenue. PATHETIC STRUGGLE. The most pathetic struggle In the world is not that on the battlefield between men Inured to hardship, but the mother struggling to save her boy from the influence of the saloon. William J, Bryan.

Infantile Paralysis Germ. In a lengthy report to physicians, the Uockeleller institute announces the discovery of n germ In the brain and spinal cord of monkeys inoculated withe infantile paralysis. The organ ism Is said to be very minute, the dillicnlties attending its nrtlllehil cul tivation and identilicaiion being so great that the discovery Is as yet of little value for the purpose of early diagnosis of suspected cases. Mon keys inoculated with the micro organ ism, developed n disease corrc.oiiil ing to infantile paralysis In human be ings. Prom these experiments ll was determined that the mucous mem branes of the nose and throat of per sons not sick with Ihe disease may become contaminated with the virus and that without falling III themelves they may become curriers of the dis ease. It was found, in monkeys, tint t the virus could be discovered six months after inoculation, and that dry ing and mixing with dust did not de stroy It. Precocity. "Mercy:" exclaimed Mrs. hlggs.
