Mediums In Japan.

Spirit rapplng vocation Tor women III
Japan requires little apparatus Rap
ping is perhaps not the correct word, fol
there is really no 'rapping' at all-ths
clients are simply put in communication
with any spirit with whom they desire to
speak 1t is not necessary that the spirit
should be that of a dead person, but the
medium always inquiries whether the
spirit whose presence is desired is living
or dead.
The mediums always carry about with
them a mysterious wooden box, about q
foot or less square. Like the medicine
bag of the Indian medicine man, its con
tents are a secret to members of the
same profession. These women usually
have a bow of soft wood strung with q
single string, and this they twang on
the edge of the box like a cariCature OF
violin playing.
If the spirit required is that of dead
person, a leaf plucked from a graveyard
is used to splash some water out of n
small cup that stands in front of the
medium. If the person is living, sim,
liar ceremony is performed with piece
Of stick instead of leaf. Then follows
an incarnation, and the spirit proceeds
to speak through the medium. The
medium charges sometimes as high as 10
or 20 cents.-San Francisco Call.

Both Parties Pleased.

A Portland lawyer says that not long

ly angry-as men usually are when they
go on such errands He had called upon
a debtor and asked him politely for the
payment Of bill Of $3.50 and had been
abused for his pains. Now he wanted
the lawyer to collect it.
The lawyer demurred. The amount
was too tritiing 1t would cost the whole
of it to collect it.

care if don't get cent, so long as that
fellow has to pay it"
So the lawyer wrote the debtor let.

in high dudgeon. He didn't owe any
$3.50, and he wouldn't pay it.
Every well, said the lawyer, then
my instructions are to sue. But hard,

for so small sum-"

The lawyer was obliged to confess
that he should.
"Oh, WE'LL" said the debtor, that's
another matter If Mr.. - isn't going

The debt was paid, the lawyer peck

When Mans advice Was Good.


He who had much occasion to be abroad
on the day when the snow, rain and
WIND made merry with the population
OF this town saw some queer sights and
heard some queer things. One of the
worst crossings in the lower part of the
city was at the intersection of Broadway
and Fulton street, where the slush and
snow formed an expanse of something
which told nothing of the depth of the
mixture. Here and there was hum
mock which might furnish solid footing,
but probably wouldn't. A Young man.

between the curbs, and deciding that the

The young man jumped to one side,
and she who would not be befriended
went ahead. There was a splash, half
smothered cry, wild scramble, and she
stood on the sidewalk. But the slush
had gone above the tops of her stout
walking shoes. Grimly she looked back
at her adviser, and the wind brought her
remark to his ears:

What the College Gymnasium Does.

The college gymnasium is place not
for the production only Of studious ath.
letes, but of athletic students. A place
where an hours varied exercise, a run,
spray and a rub down can be had regu-
larly, and where a man may turn his
thoughts wholly from books and studies
for awhile by bout at fencing, or box
ing, or by game in the bowling alley, or
in the handball court, from which he
can get increased capacity for greater
and better endeavors. Kept within its
proper sphere, it is as necessary for the
symmetrical and complete development
of the young scholar in politics" as is
the mathematical recitation, the histor-
zeal lecture or the debating society, and
it is as legitimate.-Harper's Weekly
