Japan's Lacquer Industry.

japanese papers are crying out at the
extinction of the lacquer industry of the
country. The tree from which the var
nish is obtained is disappearing. For
merly, like the mulberry tree on which
the silk worm feeds, it was protected by
law. Each family of the upper classes
was obliged to rear 100 trees, the middle
classes seventy, and the lower classes
forty Since the law fell into disuse the
cultivation of the lacquer tree has rapidly
declined. The trees were cut down with.
out care and none were planted to re-
place them, so that they have become
exceedingly rare while the price of lacquer
has enormously increased. Similar com.
plants, too, are heard of the process OF
disafforestation going on in Japan since
the ancient law, which required every
one who cut down a tree to plant two in
its place, was abolished.
The Forest Republican. [volume] (Tionesta, Pa.) 1869-1952, 1884-07-16

tious is the Banca de Italiana in Null
berry street. The men put their saw
ings in this, and their pile is augmented
by driblets from their wives and chill
dren. But surely the reader may ask If
these men are able to save money on
their small wages, they would be con-
tent to live better. No; they are willing
to drudge and starve, willing to subsist
on a crust, so that their ambition, the
great one of their lives, may be realized.
The poor Italian has but one object in
view and that is to get back to his ma
tive land. 1t is to compass that object
that he slaves and starves. Every day
that goes by sees him nearer to the goal
of his ambition. If he feels the chill air
on winters night because of the lack
of an overcoat he consoles himself with
the knowledge that soon he will have
money to bring him to sunny Italy, where,
with his modest fortune, he can become
tradesman or a farmer. When the
Garibaldian has acquired 81, 900 or 81, 200
he sails with his wife for home. The
children are then old enough to take
care of themselves and they are left to
do so.
These Neapolitans have their pleasures
and their designations too. To be sure,
they do not go to the theatres, nor do
they study the rhythm of the waves upon
the seashore.. But they find surcease of
toll and sorrow in their liquor saloons.
These abound. They are vile places,
but they suit the customers. There they
dance the brisk rigadon, play cards for
stale beer, and after an evenings dissi-
patton only spend ten cents. The beer
costs two cents glass and is the drain
age collected from kegs. The cigars are
sold for the same prce, and vile COM
pound called whisky may be purchased
for three cents. The men play cards for
the drinks, and only the victors quaff
the stuff. Sometimes they quarrel and
vile oaths float out into the atmosphere
Sometimes they jest, but their wit never
reaches an Attic height and rarely gets
to the level of a banter. If some Jack
pudding comes along they entertain him
while he gets off his gasconade, but
oaths are far more frequent than laughter.
And this is how they live. A hundred
families occupy building and at least
one room. In it they eat and live and
sleep and sometimes die. The funerals
are inexpensive but affecting. The cof-
fin is as rude and cheap as pine can be.
The hearse is simple also. When the
time for the funeral arrives the windows
in the vicinity are black with Italian hu-
manity. The coffin is enclosed in the
hearse, male member of the family sits
beside the driver, and the solitary pro-
cesson is ready to start. Then two or
three native musicians play dirge upon
their violin and harp, and when they
have concluded the funeral starts. This
is the actual everyday life of these strange
people, and they number over 5000 now.

Churchyard Poetry.

That the following, near bennington,
is genuine, there is no reason to doubt.
The lines are touching. They are in
memory of a man named John Trees:
Poorly lived,
And poorly died,
Poorly buried,
And no one cried.
Equally melancholy, though with a
different kind of sadness, are the rhymes
on John Hill. They come from "church-
yard at Manchester"
Here lies John Hill, a man of skill;
His age was five times ten.
He neer did good, nor ever would
Had he lived as long again.
Very likely not, for if in half a CEN
tury man does no good he will hardly
turn over new leaf at fifty years of age.
Is the following to be considered as an
eulogium on the person commemmorated2
Provost Peter Patterson was Provost of Dun
Provost Peter Patterson, here lies he,
Hallelujah, hallelujeel
And what is the meaning of this sim
gular inscription in Cusop churchyard,
Herefordshire2 Has it any meaning at
all2
Why DER and DER a beaten path
You walk, and draw up nothing new
Not so our martyred seraph did
When from the Verge of Wales he fed
The martyred seraph was William
Seward, of Badsey, Worcester, who
died October %, 1742. How a man
could be seraph, and how a seraph
could be martyred, are unexplained mys-
teries.
1t is somewhat curious to find person
not only writing his own epitaph, but
doing it in the following manner. Mr..
Thompson speaks of himself as dead and
buried; and yet he survived himself for
the space of sixteen years. At Kirk
Braddan, in the Isle of Man, we read:
Here underlyeth the body of the
Reverend Mr.. Patrick Thompson,
Minister of Gods Word forty years,
At present vicar of Kirk Braddan,
Aged 81, Ammo 1873.
Deceased ye cath April, Ammo 1859.
This vicar apparently looked forward
with calm equanimity to his death. "a
calm despair is indicated by these mel
ancholy lines:
At threescore winters end I died.
A cherries being, lone and sad;
| The nuptial knot l never tied,
And wished my father never had
