THE JAPANESE VILLAGE.

in New York, to see the Japanese.
One finds the workmen in this Japan
csc village in Enthusiastically pictur-
esque and attractive surroundings. There
are half dozen booths on either side of
the hall, open Oh three or four sides, SO
that one can see all that is going on and
watch each Of the many processes into
which the work is divided. The floor
ofeach of these little houses is raised two
feet or SO above the floor of the hall, and
is covered with straw mating. Each
little hi use has its roof Of bamboo poles
and paper thatch; and between and
over and around them all are hung
scores Of lanterns, umbrellas, screens
and what not, which gives gay, holi-
day look and not inartistic decorative
effect to the whole And when you be-
gin to wander around among the booths
you find many curious sights to engage
your attention. The Japanese seem to
have an aversion for chairs. They do
most of their work either sitting cross
legged like tailor or, more common
custom, kneeling When they mount
theirlow platforms to prepare for work
they oftentimes leave their big, clumsy
looking sandals on the floor, and then
one sees that they wear a stocking of
some kind of thick Servicable cloth that
was once white and Of peculiar cut that
provides socket for the big toe in
dependent of the others. For the curl
GUS onlookers they seem to care moth
ing. Some Of them are rapid workers
and others seem lazy-as much interest
ed in critical observation Of the specta-
tors as they are in what they have in
hand. They are all intelligent men I;
this is apparent both from their appear
ance and from the manneri in which thew
do their work. And tits a rare treat to
be able to getthe glimpse that is here
offered of the peculiar methods by which
skilled Japanese artisans produce the
beautiful objects for which they are ia
nous.
I'M,
Thus one is struck by the shape of
some Of the tools which the cabinet ma
kers use. The saws, for instance, re-
semble in shape butchers cleaver with
long handle. The blades are shorter
and narrower than ours, and the wood is
cut by drawing the saw towards one, the
left hand furnishing the power These
Workmen make the screen frames which

Country Boys.

The glory of the farm is in the
boys. Their successful careers in
every avenue of life where energy,
ability and worth are required is the
best possible recommendation Of
country life. 1t develops constitu-
ton capable of struggling with the
tasks and hardships oflife. Common
sense, ingenuity and pluck are natu-
raj products of the farm, as well as
fruit orgrain. The man who pushes
to the front, the man of intelligence,
adaptability and power is the son of
farmer. The country boys fill our
colleges, where they are noted for
scholarship and industriousness; and
not to be forgotten is the fact that
most of them are forced by necessity
to the closest economy, while the
boy from the city enjoices in album
dant means. Full eighty per cent. of
the rich and influential in our cities
were once boys of the farm. The
vast majority of the men notable in
the workshop, in the halls of legisla-
ton and at the bar, in the pulpit,
scientists, writers and scholars of
every class, come from the same
source. Our nation observes with
pride that most of her Presidents
were boys in frontier cabins, and
learned to strike their first hard blows
in the forest. The courage that taught
them to go barefOoted, wear patched
clothes and work for their bread, has
also taught them how to rule. cal
most one half of the people in this
country reside in town. Where are
the town boys in the race of life?
Pooling, curling their hair, polishing
their boots, while the rough country
boy is ploughing barefooted along the
road to fame" Born an heir to no
fortune, he makes one for himself,
and stepping unknown from the cabin
home of his boyhood, he wins both
wealth and fame by personal energy
and worth. "Where did that boy get
his noble purpose and unfaltering
courage? They were born to him on
the farm; they were woven into his
fibre by early years of toll; the warp
and wool of his life were threads OF
gold"

Husbands and Lovers.

Many woman sighs and weeps in
secret because the husband of her
youth has ceased to pay her the at
tentions of a lover. He coolly lets
her pick up her own handkerchief,
stalks stfffly out of the door before
her, and lets her risk all sorts of dis
asters by clambering out of a double
wagon unassisted. Now, we don't
propose to excuse men for any such
objectionable lapses but it is a fact
that the majority of women cease to
grow in attractiveness, or-to speak
acknowledgements to put forth new
buds of promised loneliness to chal-
lenge their husbands perennial ado
ration; and the perverse creatures
cease to cast admiring glances at the
old plant which has dropped its bios
SONS. Do you see the remedy, neg
lected wife? Treat yourself as you
treat your plants. You give them
fresh air and sunshine, fresh soil and
more room for the advancing roots to
grow in; give yourself more oppor-
tunities for mental growth and the
cultivation of personal graces. Maybe
it's too bad, but you can't blame a

ETC., were usually sold by "struck
measures" unless the quantity was
small. Corn meal, vegetables and
fruits were always sold by "heaping
measure" Fifty pounds was consid-
cred bushel of corn meal, but this
was merely an arbitrary country Gus
tom, and was never sanctioned by
the dealers or mill men. The State
fixed fifty-siX pounds as bushel of
shelled corn and permitted water
mills to exact one-eighth, and steam
mills One-siXth as toll for grinding
grain. This would make a bushel of
water mill meal weigh forty-nine
pounds, but bushel of steam mill
meal would only weigh forty-siX and
two-thirds pounds! This is only one
small instance showing how little the
average legislator knows of the real
practical wants of the people at large.
There was an effort made early in
the tifties to correct this legislative
blunder by passing an act compelling
steam mills to grind for the same toll
-one-eighth-that was allowed to
water mills. In 1854 a fearful drought
visited this section, and, as all the
water mills were shut down for
months, the steam mill men paid no
attention whatever to the act, and it
remains a "dead letter" on the stat
utes till this day, and the wisest law
makers cannot tell what is a legal
bushel of corn meal in Tennessee. 1t
ranges from 46S pounds to so pounds,
with large majority of retail dealers
in favor of the smaller figures.

Good Advice from a Humorist.

To young men Bob Burdette says
"You take basin of water, place
your finger in it for twenty-five or
thirty seconds, take it out and look
at the hole that is left. The size of
the hole represents about the impress
sion advice makes on young mans
mind.
Don't depend too much on your
family-the dead part l mean. The
world wants live men; it has no use
for dead ones. Queen Victoria can
trace her ancestors back in direct
line to William the Conquerer. If
you cannot get further back than
your father you are better off; your
father was a better man than old Will
liam; he had better clothes to wear,
better food to eat and was better
housed.
"If you are diamond, be sure
that you will be found. Cheek, brass
or gall never gets ahead of merit.
"Iloveayoungman who is straight
forward. Ask for what you want.
If you want to marry rich mans
daughter, or borrow $500 from him,
ask him for it; it amounts to the
same thing in the end. 1t is always
better to astonish man than to bore
him.
Remember that in the morning OF
life come the hard working days,
Hard work never killed man. It's
fun, recreation, relaxation, holidays
that kill. The fun that results in q
head the next morning SO big that q
tub could hardly cover it is what
kills. Hard work never does.
"Those who come after us have tc
work just as hard as we do. When
shovel the snow off my sidewalk, il
perchance / take three-quarter piece
off of my neighbours walk 1 put il
back, because if l didn't / should be
doing him an injustice.
"You can't afford to do anything
but what is good. You are on a dress
parade all the time.
"Don't be afraid of pounding per
sistently at one thing. Don't bt
afraid of being calleda one-idea mar
or q crank"

Uncongenial White House Dinners

Ben Perley Poore.
After Gen. Grant had appointed
Judge Taft Secretary of War he in
vited number of leading Republi-
can Senators to dine with him at the
White House, that they might be-
come personally acquainted. He for
got, however, to invite Judge Taft,
who consequently was not present, so
those invited to meet him did not see
him. On another occasion, when
Congress was investigating the Wash
ington real estate pool, Gen. Grant
sent one of his sons to the Capitol to
invite informally a dozen Republican
Senators TO dine at the White House,
for a conference, The young Grant
mistook that staunch Democrat, Sen
ator Eli Salisbury for Senator Morrill,,
of Vermont, and so invited the Della
warian. His presence acted like an
extinguisher on all political talk, and
he, after having wondered all through
the dinner why he was invited, hur-
riedly took his leave when the cigars
were introduced.
