THE RESOURCES OF JAPAN.

A writer in BldcktCoOd's Magazine,
speaking from a personal knowledge
of the resources OF Japan, says:
In minerals the country is very
rich The precious and useful metals
are found there in large quantities, as
well as coal, and a few mines are
worked on an important scale. Rock
crystal Is abundant, pearls and eOrals
are fished along the coast, but no dia-
mOnds. or indeed any other stones of
value have yet been found. We all
know how able the Japanese are in
metal working, especially in cutlery
and gold and copper; we haYe but q
general idea Of the matehless finish
and subtle delicacy of the handling,
and of the talent which that handling
reveals.
With the skill which they have so
long possessed, and with their caPac-
ity of imitation (let it be remembered
that they built their first steam boat
and its engines solely from a descrip
tion in Dutch book, it may be ex-
peeted that they will soon produce
all the hardware with which we now
supply them. In manufactures gen.
orally, there has not, thus far, been
much develOpement, though several
European articles, such as window
glass, grape wine, and beer, are be
ginning to be made on a small scale.
In the staple products of Japan, in
lacquer, porcelain, and silk Grape. no
change can possibly be wished for
they are so perfect as they are that no
have learned to equal them.
Indeed, the secret Of good lacquer and
1f weaving silk with the same pat
tern on both sides, has never been
discovered outside of Japan.

IHTE REST

Long ago we determined That il
should not be our fault if our readers
did not soon better appreciate the ac-
eumuiatOn of interest. and how. i'm
possible it is for any business to long
pay current high rates. Possibly some
have almost tired seeing our Oft
repeated table about the aeeumula-
tiOns Of one dollsr at different rates
for hundred years. But, tired or
not, X is a healthfuI sight; and every
business man especially ought to have
that table where it will meet his eve
at least once a week ;Tand- even then
it IS more than probable that he will
allow many dollars unnecessarily to
accumulate their Interest against
him. This may be IN dead stock, in
Unnecessary fixtures, or in various eS-
penses easily dispensed with II he
would be successful he should count
the Interest he Aaight- receire as We q
as that he has to pay.
Especially in making permanent
investments let no one forget the in
tefest account. However familiar
with this subject, there are probably
few who will not be startled al the
statement that the cost Of the outfit Of
Columbus in his first
voyage of discovery, put at interest at
six per cent, would by this time have
amounted to more than tie entire
money value of this cOntinent, to-
gether with the Accommodations from
the industry OF all who have lived
upon It. If any doubt this let-tiseu
reckon the amount, estimating the
entire outfit TO have cost only the
small sum of five thousand dollars.
and remembering that money doubles
at six per cent. in a little less than
twelve years-OF accurately, in eleven
years, ten months and tWenty-Cue
days. Allowing it to double every
twelve years, this five thousand dol
lars at interest at six per cent, since
1892, it will be found, would have
amounted to Sl7, ,S95, 700, 600, 900 which,
the population OF the en-
lire continent Of America to be eighty
i've millions. or seventeen million
families (averaging five members
sseh) would give more than million

1f these. Our table of the aeeumuIn.

SLOW POISONING FROK GREEN
WALL PAPER.

A physician in Western Massaehu-
sets recently had a lady patient,
who, for several weeks, had been suf-
fering from nausea, general pIostra-
ton, and other symptoms of slow
poisoning. Failing to discover the
cause of the symptoms, as a last re-
sort, the Doctor requested her to
remove from her chamber, the walls
Of which were covered with paper Of
avery light shade of green, so light,
indeed, that in the evening it could
scarcely be distinguished from white.
After leaving the room the symptoms
Immediately disappeared, and the
patient rapidly recovered. A sample
of the paper was forwarded for analy-
sis to the State Chemist, at Hartford.
Mr.. Joseph Hall, of the High School.
and was found to contain a large
quantity of arsenic. Mr.. Hall OBJ
tanned the poison in the various forms
OF metallic arsenic, yellow tersul
phate, silver arsenite, and arseniOus
acid, or common white arsenic. He
estimates that every square foot of
this innocent looking paper contained
an amount of the poison equivalent
to five grains Of arseniOus acid, or
double the fatal dose for an adult per-
son. This, in the moist, warm wea
ther of last July and August, was
amply sufficient to keep the air OF
the room impregnated with the poi
son, and any person occupying such
room would be as certainly poisoned
as though the arsenic had been taken
into the stomach.

Who shall know him by his dress
Paupers may be ut for princes,
Princes ut for something less.
Crumpled shirt and dirty Jacket
May oeclothe the golden ore
or the deepest thoughts and feelings
Satin vest can do no more.
There are streams Of crystal nectar
Ever flowing out Of stone;
There are purple beds and golden,
Hidden, crushed, and overthrown.

Loves and proSpers you and me,
While he values thrones the highest
But as pebbles in the sea.
Man upraised above his fellows.

That your meanest binds are ment
Men Of labor, men Of feeling,
Men OF thought and men OF fame,
Claiming equal rights TO sunshine
In mans ennobiing name.
There are foam-embroldered oceans,
There are little woe d-clad rills;
There are feeble inch high saplings,
There are cedars on the hills.
God, who counts by souls, not stations,
Loves and proSperS you and me,
For to him all vain distinctions
are as pebbles in the sea.
Toiling hands alone are builders
ora nations wealth and fame,
Titled laziness Is pensiOned,
Fed and fattened on the same:
By the sweat Of others f0reheads,
Living only to rejoice.
While the poor mans outraged freedom
Nainly lifts its feeble voice.
Truth and justice are eternal.
Born with lOveliness and light;
secret wrongs shall never prosper
While there is a sunny right.

Boundless love to you and me,
Links oppression with its titles
But as pebbles in the sea.

A HINT FOR BORRS.

Some time ago there lived a gentle.
man of indolent habits in Sussex.
who made a business, in the winter
season., of visiting his friends extern
sively. After wearing out his well
come in his own immediate vicinity
last winter, he thought he would visit
an old Quaker fFi( nd, some twenty
miles distant, who had been a school
fellow of his. On his arrival he was
cordially received by the Quaker, he
thinking his visitor had taken much
pains to come so far to see him. He
treated his friend with great attention
and pOliteness for several days, and
as he did not see any signs of his
leaving he became uneasy, but he
bore it with patience until the eighth
day, when he said to him:
my friend, 1 am afraid thee will
never visit me again"
"Oh, yes, SHALL" said the visitor,
81 have enjoyed my visit very much;
shall certainly come again."
May" said the Quaker, "I think
thee will never visit me again"
What makes you think / will not
come again ?" asked the visitor.
''If the does never leave, " said the
Quaker, chow canst thee come
again?"
His visitor left.

A writer in the Gdlqry says the
two great wonderful sights of Europe
are the children Of England and the
flowers of Paris. If any one doubts
the former assertion, let him make a
pilgrimage any fine afternoon to
Hyde Park and look at the English
children as they are at play, and he
will own, that they are "earthlyu an
gels of Incompatible beauty. The
flowers he does not attempt to account
for, but the children's beauty comes
from living almost entirely in the
fresh air, eating plain, good food,
sleeping on hard but comfortable
beds, playing until they are sleepy,
and sleeping until they are resied
again. Such a training, says the wri-
ter, will cOnfute the bold assertion of
so convincing a person as Prof. Book,
of Leipsic University. who says; "a
healthy man is rarity; a healthy
woman apparently does not exist"
