Japanese Becoming carnivorous.

The cooking pots of Japan are now
used in the preparation Of other edibles
than fish and rice, rs the following sta
tistics amply prove: In 1879 the num-
bcr of cattle killed in japan was about
$4,000, and yearly the number has in
creased, until in 1885 itreached lie, 06S,
and in 1886 it advanced to 100, 475. It
is estimated that the number Of cattle
killed last year was not less than 200,
000. The Choya Shimbun points out
that while beef rs an article of food il
yearly coming more into favor IN Japan,
the number OF cattle markets in the cap
ital is confined by the Government to
three. Some years ago Count Goto and
Others hoated the Tosio Cattle Market
Company, and the venture has proved
SO successful that branches have been
established at Kobe and Yokkaichi.

Round Shoulders Squared.

A stopping figure and hating gait,
accompanied by the unavoidable weak
moss of lungs Incidental to narrow
chest, may be entirely cured by n very
simple and easily performed exercise OF
raising ones self upon the toes leisurely
in a perpendicular position several times
daily. To take this exercise properly
one must take perfectly upright posit-
ion, with the heels together and the toes
at nm angle of forty-five degrees. Then
drop the arms lifelcssly by the sides, an
mating and raising the chest to its full
capacity muscularly, the chin well drawn
in, and the crown of the head feeling as
il attached to string suspended from
the ceiling above. Slowly rise up on
the balls of both feet to the greatest pos
sibe height, thereby exercising all the
muscles of the legs and body; come
again into standing position without
swaying the body backward ont of the
perfect line Repeat this same exercise,
first on one foot, then on the other 1t
is wonderful what Strengthening out
power this exercise has upon round
shoulders and crooked backs, and one
will be surprised TO note how soon the
lungs begin to show the effect of such
expansive development.-IThe Family

Ohio water was extremely amusing to
one who knew what one was compelled
to drink in that region of alkaline
lagoons and soda pools. His plea en-
abled him to gain his point, and justified
the thought or opinion held by him
that white men were no good.
They did not like to go to church, as
they thought the white preacher did too
much talking and was ''all-time fool "
They could not and would not believe
that anything that the white prisoner
did or wanted to do was or could be
good. Jack said that as the white men
were here for stealing, they ought not
to be allowed to speak to the Indians
who were here for killing. He never
failed to give a good, healthy exhibit
ion of ''gall'' at any time.
When 18th Kah died Jack was asked
what should be done with the body.
Jack replied: ''Put on warm shirt, coat
aud pants; put in box; make heap pile

had taken root before he came to the
