COrns-Take Care OF Your Children's
Feet
On, how my corns do hurt me /"

"OH, how my corns do hurt me I"
Who has not heard this exclamation a
thousand times, and from thousand diff
ferent persons? 1t is rare to see an Ameri-
can, man or woman, who is not troubled
with corns
Though not dangerous, they are a most
painful infiiction. They frequently cause
agonizing pain, and still more frequently
make walking inconvenient and difficult
Let any one who has suffered from corns
for years look back and see how constant
ly little duties which require for their per-
formance personal lOcomotion have been
neglected from this cause. They diminish
the enjoyment, the comfort and the use
fulness of every one who has them.
And yet corns are entirely unnecessary
They are never an evil which could not
have been avoided. They come from too
tight or i'll fitting shoes. The "heathen
Chinee" idea that excessively small feet
are essential to beauty, is the prolific
mother of all the ills that arise from corns.
Now when grown-up people are so silly
as to pinch their feet out Of their natural
proportions, we need not waste our sym
pathy for the sufferings which they expe-
rience in consequence. 1t is their own
deliberate doing, and let them take the
pains and penalties.
What interests us chiefly in the matter
is the children. We protest against in
casing their feet in shoes which confne
them in too narrow limits, or forcibly
change their natural shape. The silly
pride of a vain mother has often imposed
upon child the iDfietion of corns, from
which she was obliged to limp all the way
through life.
Let unnaturally small feet be looked
H.. NE
of small brains, and this mischief will
soon be remedied.
1t always seemed cruel to us to "hopple"
lambs. How much more cruel is it TO
"hOpple" children with shoes which
spoil their feet, their fun, and their tenn
pers, and from the injurious effects of
which they will never be entirely free

Japanese House.

The japanese have habits Of living
about as unlike ours as the inhabi-
tants of the moon, if that satellite has
any living beings. Here is q sketch of
a japanese house:
When the walls of the house are
up it consists of but one large room,
which is then cut up by partitions,
which are nothing more than sliding
screens that close up into each other
in a fashion that admits Of one apart
ment being divided into dozen dis
tiRct ones instantly. There are 40
chiInneys attached to the houses, and
they contain no beds, chairs, or ta-
bles.
The floors are covered with a Sc
ries of clean bamboo mats or cesh-
ions, each six feet by three. and nice
ly bound with red or blue tape.
They arc stuffed with light wool
or moss, and are as soft and Welding
TO pressure as the heaviest Brussels
velvet.
These mats fit i'm with order as reg
. ularly as the squares ola chees-bOard,
and the whole floor is kept as clean
and is busted as often as the ma
hOgony side-boaFd in the house of
a burgler. No fieck of dirt is ever
/ allowed to rest upon the polished
i surface of the mating, and to step
upon it with pair of boots would be
a greater insult than TO make a foot
stool Of n seven hundred dollar pia-
I no.
The family sit upon the mating all
day, with their legs bent under them,
in shape that would give any for
eigner incurablc paralysis in fifteen
minutes, and they sleep upon it all
] night.

THE MAN LOVE.


BY NETTIE POWER HOUSTON.
have such a gallant lover,
In the land Ofmy hearts fair home;
When the mists OF twilight gather,
/ know he is sure to come.
IIc never has kept me waiting;
When the stars begin to shine,
His eyes more bright than starlight
Look down in the depths of mine.
And ont in the happy sunshine
That mantles the summer hills,
Together we sometimes saunter,
And rest by the singing ril1s.
\ nd oft as the sunbeams nestle
In the curIs OF his taWny h9lr,
How long for their unseen fingers
50 wild in their revel there!
When the cooling breeZeS softly
Come dancing TO kiss his brow,
And scatter bright leaves about him
ThrO' their Whispcrings soft and low
1 envy their blessed mission,
With a pang that L ne'er can tell,
They snay fan him, and may kiss him
And I-nay but love him WELL
But why should ] murmUr or envy?
He loves me far better than ALI
And my voice to him Seemeth sweeter
Than even the moclSing birds call.
All, well! in Queen Fancy's Kingdom
My life has "a radiant gleam,
For the man love is a Vision,
And my love for him Is q dream.

Atmospheric Currents.

Atmospheric currents are common
ly attributed to the combined effects
of heat, and the rotation of the earth.
Air rises in the warmer Iatitudes, and
colder currents set in from the North
and South latitude to fill the gap.
But as these cold currents have par
taken of slower rate Of rotation than
prevails nearer the Equator, they are
too sluggish for the faster regions and
therefore the earth's surface slips I'M
der them, so as to give the impression
of wind flowing from the East to the
West, very much on the principle of
the wind raised by fastgoing Iocomo-
tive. If this is a true explanation of
the trade winds, it is somewhat diff
cult to understand how a ship can
make westing by them any more than
the locomotive can get blown back
wards by the wind it raises. It is
now asserted that the heat of the
warm districts has very little to do
with the atmospheric current, and
that there is a dominant and primary
movement of the whole atmosphere
around the globe from West to East.
Subordinate currents are produced by
local causes on the surface, but the
great westerly current prevails still in
the higher parts of the atmosphere
over these, and it is the fundamental
movement to be recognized in all
study Of the winds. This is very i'm
pOrtant if true. AS no terrestrial cause
can le supposed for such a universal
movement of the atmosphere, 1t is
referred to celestial influences.

Japan Tea.

In the year 1913 Java exported
over million pounds oftea, although
of an inferior quality; since this it
has very much improved, as we have
seen by the six different experiments
with green and black teas at the last
exhibition in Paris. Reunion like
wise forwarded samples of excellent
quality, produced from plants which
the French procured from Java and
the Pekoe, sorts were equal to any
of the same description Of China tea.
We are convinced that Japan teas, of
the quality of which the japanese
have reason to be proud, will in time
have a great influence on the Eu-
rOpean markets. The tea plants is
called in Japan "Tsia," and cultiva-
ted not as elsewhere, in large gard
ems and plantations, but merely on
the banks of lakes and rivers. The
first harvest takes place towards the
end of February. The newly pluck
ed leaves are collected in paper bags,
and dried with the greatest care and
ceremony; they are stored up in por-
celain jars of enormous value, and
the handling of them is only permit
ted by gloves. The second harvest
takes place towards the end of March
or the beginning of April the third
and most plentiful follows few
weeks later, when the leaves have
obtained their full development.
The quality of the tea depends upon
the age of the leaves, the youngest of
which are the best. The earliest
leaves are called Itziban, those of the
second harvest Niban, and those of
the third harvest Sanban. The finest
qualities are ground to powder and
so stored up. Four qualities of Nj
ban are distinguished. The Sanban
are similar to the tea exported by
China to Europe, The last quality,
which is consumed by machines and
peasants, is called bantsiar, and it
suffers no change when exposed to
the air, while with the better sorts
the contrary is the case. The finest
specimens for the Emperor's Court
are grown on a hill near Mako, in
position especially adapted for their
cultivation,
Great care is always paid to the
thorough drying of the leaves, and
we think the Chinese might here take
a lesson and improve the tea sent to
us. We also notice that the Japanese
employ snoW-Water, or rain water if
the former is not to be had, and such
water develops the aromatic proper
ties of the tea more than spring wa

No Bones in the Ocean.

Mr.. Jeffrey has established the fact
that bones disappear in the ocean.
BY dredging it is common to bring up
teeth but rarely ever a bsne of any
kind; these, however compact, dis
solve if exposed to the action of the
water but a little time. On the con-
trary teeth-which are not bones any
more than whales are fish-resist the
destroying action of the sea-water in
definitely. 1t is, therefore, a power
full solvent. Still the popular Opin-
ion is that it is a brine. If such
were the case, the bottom of the sea
would long ago have been Swallowed
by immense accumulations of car
casses and products of the vegetable
iUgdom constantly floating into
EN-.
Dentine, the peculiar material Of
i.!Iiich teeth are formed, and the
enamel covering them, offer extraor-
binary resistance tn those chemical
agencies which resolve other animal
remains into nothingHess. Mounds
in the West, tumuli in Europe and
Asia, which are believed to antedate
sacred history for thousands of years,
yield up perfectly sound teeth, on
which time seems to have made no
impression whatever.

NOVEL SUBSTITUTE FOR GUTTA
PERCHA.-A singular marine plant is
washed upon the shores in the vicini-
ty of the Cape of Good Hope, South
Africa, which has come into conside-
rable use as a substitute TOR gutta per-
cha and similar substances, in the
manufacture of fancy articles, such as
canes, picture frames, inlaid work,
etc. 1t is of dark color, and when
fresh, it is thick and fleshy; but when
it is dried it becomes compact, and its
surface looks like a beautifully grain
ed deer's horn. After it becomes dry
and hard, it can be rendered soft again
by sleeping in water, and in this con-
ditiOn it may be stretch and formed
into various shapes. 1t can also be
reduced, when dry, to powder, then
made plastic by soaking in water, and
in this condition it may be struck into
almost any shape in a die press-cOm-
ing out of the moids like articles
formed of gutta percha. The plant
is prepared for its Industrial uses by
cleaning it first with weak caustic al
kali, and then with dilute sulphuric
acid, after which it is washed, and
before it is quite dry it may be pressed
into sheets or any other form. 1t
then may be rendered very hard by
STEPPING it in hot solution of alum,
after which it is removed to a hot
room, where it is dried, and retains its
shape afterward. Reduced to powder,
it may also be mixed with various
substances, like india rubber, and
nodded into a great variety of articles.
