APERMANENT PEACE.

That Is What the Japanese Are Seeking to
Establish.
VICTORIA, b. c., Oct. Traditional
oriental advices by steamer say that
the leaders CT Kashin-To a powerful
political party in Japan, have for
mulated the following resolution,
which will be submitted al a conven-
ton to be held soon and which with
out doubt will be unanimously adopted:
1. Our party will vote for whatever
appropriations of money may be neces-
sary to carry the present war to a ter
mination as shall serve to chastise
China and to secure permanent peace
for the orient.
2. Since it would only invite future
calamities to patch up temporary
peace, our party will resolutely resist
the acceptance of any proposals for
peace made before the vital objects of
war have been attained.
3. Since it is of essential Importance
that the whole nation should be united
in order to achieve the vital objects of
war our party will for the moment
desist from any criticisms of cabinet
errors and will apply our whole
strength in the field of foreign politics.
In addition to the above, the meeting
will be asked to pass an address OF
congratulation TO the sovereign, and
vote of thanks to the army and navy
for the victories hitherto achieved.

Courtroom Repartee.

The following anecdote is related
of Judge Thornton, who was chief
justice of the court of common pleas
IN New Hampshire and Judge of the
superior court of that state in the
last century. While he was presid-
ing in the common pleas, a counsel
who was making the closing argu-
ment to the jury in a protracted case
ON warm afternoon discovered that
the presiding judge on the bench was
absorbed in reading book, and his
associate was soundly sleeping by his
side. The advocate turned to the
jury, and with indignant emphasis
remarked, Gentlemen, my unfortu-
nate client has no hope but in your
attention, since the court in their
wisdom will not condescend to hear
his case!' -
OF course there was no sleeping on
the bench after that, but Judge
Thornton looked up from his book
and remarked: when you have
anything to offer, Mr.. =, which is
pertinent to the case on trial, the
court will be happy to hear you.
Meantime l may as well resume my
reading. "-Green Bag.

You might take a course in some

Trade Catalogues.

Trade catalogue making in Amer
lea, If not elsewhere, has gradually
become fine art. For years Amer
lean catalogues have been the ad-
miration of foreigners, and yet a
comparatively small number of these
catalogues were printed on particu-
larly fine paper or had special atten-
ton paid to Typography. There were
a few firms only that INDUCED in the
luxury Of what might, be termed
"gilt edged" catalogues, and single
editions of these frequently cost a
small fortune.
Aside from this there is another
point, though rather more utilitarian
in aspect, which is worthy of note,
and that is that the classifcations
and descriptionsR these catalogues
are generally ST hciently definite to
enable the exact quality, price and
style to be found either by name or
number and an order to be made
out, with the certainty of being sat
is6ed, even when the prospective
purchaser has never seen the goods.
The possible performances of the
tools and other apparatus are de-
tailed, the different grades are illus
trated; and as far as possible it is
made easy for the buyer to get a
good general knowledge of every
thing that the manufacturer includes
among his products. In this respect,
as in that of artistic excellence,
American catalogues are, generally
speaking, vastly superior to those of
English or European origin in which
there is too often an inadequateness
of description which leaves one I'M
pleasantly in doubt as to the quality
or performance of any particular
tool advertised. -Cassier's Magazine.

Lawn Mowers.

The proper care of a lawn mower
is a matter of Importance, as even
the best makes are liable to get out
Of order with i'll usage. The bolts
should always be kept tight and the
knives at a uniform distance from
the steel. The knives should always
be kept sharp, which can be done
with the saw file. If they get very
dull, they should be taken off and
ground. The lawn should be free
from stones and sticks. A small
stone in the lawn will be apt to cause
much injury to the knives. Good
oil should be used, as cheap oil gums
too readily. For this purpose sewing
machine oil is perhaps the best. The
machine should not be allowed tc
rust, and to prevent this it should be
properly housed on a dry wooden
