Curious Japanese Customs.

In Japan almost every one carries q

fat box. Each end of the box is fas-
tened to sort of paper. which, lying
in folds, forms, when drawn out Ian

also tiny wooden box, shaped like
cylinder. to hold his candle. A small
medicine chest, with half dozen little
boxes, each containing a small portion
of medicine, a fan, a pipe and short
sword, all form part of the outfit.
The belt OF a Japanese is, therefore. a
very important part of his dress. His
slippers consist of sole with worsted
thread at the upper end. through
which the great toe is thrust to keep it
on the foot. His pillow is frame
work of whalebone or some such SUBJ
stance, into which the back Of the
neck near the head fits. This is to
keep his knot of hair in order, for he
does not have his hair dressed every
day and therefore is obliged to take
care of the piece, which is creased and
bound into a queue, the rest of the
head being closely shaven. The rich

HIS WILD EXPLOIT.
Yankee Tar Who Would Not Admit
Foreign Superiority.

Horeign superiority.
While the United States ship Nipsic
and several men. of-war of different ma
tions were anchored near each other
in the harbor OF Montevideo last April
the crew Of Dutch man-of-war which
was moored short distance from
Uncle Sans ship entered into liveliest
competitive drill and did their utmost
to beat the time made by the American
Toys in shining masts up and down
and crossing yards. After some very
determined racing, in which the Amer
leans had slightly laid over their per-
sistent competitors, one of the Dutch
men, who had succeeded in crossing
the mainroyal yard a few seconds
astern of the time made by the Nipsic,
gave a loud shout, which drew the at
tention of every ship in the harbor,
and shining up the pole to the truck.
which is a circular piece of wood about
the size of dinner plate fixed at the
very top OF the mast and used for the
purpose of hosting the flags, he drew
himself up and stood on his head on
the truck, and twirled his legs around
as if to challenge and deride the
possibility of any seaman daring to
rival him in that line of business. and
after maintaining his position for al
most minute he repeated his yell of
defiance and slid down the royal back
stay to the deck, where he was received
by cheer that could be heard all over
the city of Montevideo. The rousing
cheer had an instantaneous effect upon
the temper of Jack Peterson, the curly
headed captain of the Nipsic's foretop,
who, after declaring that no square,
headed Dutchman under the sun could
get ahead of him, rushed up to the
main truck, and in attempting to stand
on his head. which he had never before
attempted to do. he instantly overbal-
anced and fell a distance of 1870 feet
into the water, accidentally going in
feet first, after the manner of most
expert diver. The sommersault and
fall were entirely accidental, but
looked from distance like feat Of
great skill. Jack was at once pulled
aboard the ship, and before he had
fully recovered his breath he jumped
on the rail, and shaking his clenched
fist in the direction of the Hollander,
he shouted at the top of his voice:
"There, you Dutch pea-soup guzzling

THE ART OF DINING.
The Small Party of Six or Eight Persons
the Truest Enjoyment.

the Truest Enjoyment.
Think of me with envy" Thackeray
said to an English friend in Paris who
had called to take him to a dinner
party at which both were expected.
Sir Joseph told me that, so far from
being ready, he found Thackeray had
sent an excuse based on a very slight
cold, and had settled himself to COM
plete comfort. In loose. morning
clothes, with his feet to the fire, he
was established in deep armchair,
with small table beside him; on it
shaded lamp. with a roasted pheasant,
claret and fruit, and by way of COM
pany new French novel. This made
the entertainment he had bid his friend
remember with envy" when he found
himself imprisoned for two hours next
an unknown person, possibly dull
one. II thought nothing was lacking
to my comfort, but to see you in even
ing rig and know I've escaped from
what's ahead of you makes me settle
down to complete enjoyment of my
book and my bird. just say you called
for me, but found me covering over
the fire.
Thackeray's well-known dislike to
formal dinners is shared by many, who,
like himself, are fashion of the time
and liable to be invited because they
are fashion, not for the real charm of
the man, which can never come out
naturally in that sort of company.
No way of meeting in society is more
thoroughly agreeable and refreshing
than the small dinner where congenial
people meet, where the six or eight
chosen persons ut table can talk freely
together and the different minds give
freshness to each topic, and where gay
nonsense has its underlying knowledge
and bias of character. Such dining as
this is the fine towering of civilization,
and it is best found in the great centers
where the easy play of minds together
has been growth, But all favoring
conditions are nothing without tact,
that faculty combining all faculties
into harmonious and instant percep-
ton and execution. This is vital to
social success, and, as the Scriptures
say of charity, "all else is naught
without it." 1t is as much a lovely gift
of nature as the artists eye or the
musicians ear. an enviable. charming
gift which training and use can de-
velop, but not give.
Constantly one sees people puz-
zled because they are not the social
success they believed inevitably due
their position or wealth, or unhagging
efforts to do the right thing in the
finest way. They can not see why

Honesty and Intelligence.
1t pays to be honest, you say.

1t pays to be honest, you say.
Granted.
Yet how many are dishonest through
ignorance, expediency, or Intentionally.
One can be dishonest and yet say nothing
A clerk who lets customer buy dam
aged piece Of goods, witness who holds;
back the truth which would clear prison,
er, a medical practitioner who takes his
patients money when he knows he is doing
him no good,-all are culpably dishonest.
Speaking Of the dishonesty OF medical
men reminds US that only the past week,
there has come under our personal obser-,
walton form of dishonesty which is almost,
too mean for narration.
1t is generally known that doctors bind
themselves by codes, resolutions and oaths
not to use any advertised medicines. Now,
there is medicine on the market which,
for the past ten years, has accomplished a
marvellous amount of good in the cure of
Kidney and Liver diseases, and diseases,
arising from the arrangement of these great
organs,-we refer to Warmers Safe Cure.
So widespread are the merits of this med
icine that the majority of the doctors of
this country know from actual evidence
that it will cure Advanced Kidney Disease,
which is but another name for Bright's Dis
ease.
The medical profession have put them
selves on record as admitting that there is
no cure for this terrible ma!ady, yet there
are physicians base enough and dishonest
enough to procure Warmers Safe Cure in
surreptitious manner, put the same into
plain, four-ounce walls, and charge their pa
tients $500 per vial, when sixteen-ounce
bottle Of the remedy, in its original pack
age, can be bought at any drug store in the
world for 81 .25
Perhaps the doctor argues that the cure
of the patient justifies his dishonesty, yet
he will boldly stand up at the next county
medical meeting and denounce Warmers
Safe Cure as patent medicine, and one
which he can not and will not use.
The fact is that the people are wakingu up
to the truth that the medical profession is
FAR from honest, and that it does not pos
sess monopoly of wisdom in the curing Of
disease, doctoring the many symptoms Of
kidney disease, instead of striking at the
seat of disease-the kidneys themselves
allowing patients to die rather than use a
remedy known to be a specific, simply
because it has been advertised, and when pa
tients are dead from Advanced Kidney Dis
ease, still practicing deception by giving the
cause of death in their certificate as pneu-
mouia, dropsy, heart disease, or some other
accompanying effect of Bright's Disease.
All this is pri'na facie evidence of incom-
potency, bigotry and dishonesty.
We speak but the truth when we say that
Messrs. H. H. Warner & Co. have done
most philanthropio work for the past ten
years in educating the people up to the
knowledge they now enjoy, especially of
maladies growing out of diseases of the
Kidneys and Liver, and are deserving Of
nil praise for thelr honesty and straight
forwardness in exposing shams and dis
honesty of all kinds.-EI.

EARLY MATURITY,
Tho Only Way In Which Farmers Can Get
Full Pay for Their Corn.

Full Fay Tor Their Corn.
The evidences of the advantages Of
early maturity of hogs and cattle have
been so numerous and positive, in the
last year especially, that there is no
need of hesitating or doubling. The
fact that hogs and steers can be made
to increase nearly double as much per
day in the first year as in the second,
shows any farmer when they should be
pushed. A steer may be made to gain
an average of q pounds per day for
the first year, while it will gain only
II pounds the second year, with a
greatly increased amount of food. And
the. third year, at the end of which
was the old-fashioned time to consider
a steer ripe for market, he will gain
only Z to pound per day. A pig
can be made to gain II pounds per
day for the first nine months, and only
+ pound per day, with food greatly
increased, the next nine months. Hence
early maturity is what is wanted, and
farmers should strive to attain to it.
When hogs or cattle are fed only
enough for support, nearly all the feed
thus used. as we'll as the time and care,
are thrown away. When feed enough
is given to keep the animal alive, a
very little more will add to their
weight and value. Therefore strive
for early maturity.
Another sad mistake is practiced by
many farmers. Though they keep
cows, they sell all of their calves when
young, and never have for market any
good, large. smooth steers. perfectly
ripe. and which will command a high
price in any market. Others keep their
steers in moderate condition until they
are two or three years old, then sell
them to feeders, and allow the latter to
reap all of the profit of cattle-raising.
Every farmer should keep his corn
away from the railroad station, but
bring forward rapidly his steers to
early maturity, as the best means of
getting full pay for his corn, and to
have the full benefits of the growth of
the steers of his farm.-Iowa State
Register.
