not want Japanese rule, for the name
of Japan is hated throughout Corea.
They desired to throw off the yoke Of
China and govern themselves, with the
assurance from the European powers
that neither China nor Japan should
attempt to annex them. China as
suzerian Of COrea is utterly powerless
to keep her in time of distress. Chi
nese troops aided to put down the reb-
els, but it was costly help, for the Mon
golian soldiers left path of dissolution
like the trail of a swarm of locusts.
They ate the country bare wherever
they Travelled, and they committed
atrocities such as Flaubert described
in "Salammbo" as incident of the seige
of Carthage by the Roman mercenaries.
AS far as that right goes, japan has

A KIND OF sUBAoUEoUs CITY.

Each species of sponge occupies its
own special habitation and will thrive
nowhere else; for in no other place can
it find its proper conditions and food.
Is 1t not curious to consider that this
blot of slime eats like other living crea.
lures, and is an epicure, too p-that is,
his meals must be exactly such as he
prefers, and warmed to the exact tenn
perature which best pleases his delicate
stomach. Into all these numerous al
ley-ways in the house which he has, in
company with his numerous family
and relations, built for himself, he alb
serbs the water, selects such particles
as he needs, whether to deyour or to
aid him In continuing the construction
of his dwelling, and expels 1T again
through the larger openings, or oscula.
Professor Hauxley's smile is an apt
one. "The SPONGE" he says, "repre-
sents kind of subaqueous city, where
the people are arranged about the
streets and roads in such manner
that each can appropriate his food
from the water as 1t passes along" A

HOLD THE STOCK.

How far it is advisable to reduce
ones stock at this time is an important
question. The stock of cattle on hand
owned by the farmers, is none too large
for them to carry under ordinary con-
ditIons. Why should they dispose OF
any more than usual this season
Grain of all kinds, especially corn, will
be scarce and high in price in Sac
county for a year to come. This will
prevent the fattening of many cattle
that would have been fed had we had
an ordinary crop of corn.
We have an abundance of corn fod-
der of the very best and richest kind
1t is only necessary to save it, and feed
our steers and other cattle literally
with it to make from it at least one
half what an ordinary corn crop would
have returned us. Our hay crop lis very
short, but if the corn crop which has
been prematurely ripened by the hot
winds and dry weather is properly cut
and bound and gathered into shocks,
it will more than make up for the loss
of hay. The dried corn fodder will

ficer of the district. Ofcourse the plan
was to force the farmer to return his
favor with present, as the governor
supposed he had saved money, and was
therefore, a good subject for squeeze.
So the Yamen runners who carried the
governors commission to the farmer
were instructed to bring back money
or, if he refused to yield. to torture the
man till he gave up his hoard.
These runners are the curse Of Corea,
as they are of China. Their uniform
and position fill them with Importance,
and their greed is something which fills
the country people with fear, They
are always expected to bring back to
the Yamen certain amount of money,
but the Mandarin winks at any exact
ions on their own account.
In this case of the Corean farmer the
runners first devoured everything he
had in the way of eggs and chickens.
Then having eaten up his food they
demanded q considerable sum for the
governor. The poor victim, instead of
bringing out the coin from his secret
hoard, was forced to go to the neigh
boring village and sell his land and
COW. This left him with the commits
sion of honorary Office, but without any
means of livelihood. The governor,
however, had not exhausted his re-
sources for evil, as he followed out pre-
cisely the tactics with the man who
had purchased the land and cow. This
victim in turn had to sell the land.
The process of squeezing" went on
three times, till no one had the courage
to buy the land. Then the governor
seized the land as unclaimed property
and added it to his possessions.
This is said on good authority to
have been an actual occurrence in
Corea recently. 1t simply serves to
show why even long oppressed peo-
pie will rise at last and strike one blow
for their rights. The Coreans haYe
nothing to hope from China, for the
methods in vogue on the peninsula are
precisely the same as those in the mid
die kingdom, save that in Corea the
magistrates are more shameless in their
exactions than they care to be in China.
What the Coreans who lately rebelled
wished to accomplish was to overthrow
the present dynasty and get ruler

sort Of submarine Venice, in fact.
Sponges take all sorts of forms; thin
and fiat, branched, round, pear-shaped,
or cup-like. They are fixed bya sort
of root, or encrust other bodies, grow
ing in groups, generally, and attached
to all sorts of things, floating or sta
tionary, animate or inanimate. When
a sponge has an addition to the family
in the spring, the young scion of the
house leaves his native roof, enjoys
himself by seeing life In rowing fash
ion for while, then, having selected q
site which suits his fancy, settles down
and builds dwelling of his own.
Some varieties prefer shallow, others
very deep, water.
Many of the sponge tribe are of so
dense silicious formation that they
crumble like brittle glass, which, in q
way, they really are. Others, like the

next best variety after this same
"sheep's WOOL is the "grass" sponge,
being of coarse texture, is used chief
ly in the making of mattresses and for
various mechanical purposes. The
"yellow" sponge is also gathered; but
Its value is less, inasmuch as it is harsh
and not of tough fibre. This species
after being treated with chemicals is

They speedily drop to pieces, and are

WHY THE coREANs REVOLT.
Exactions Which Drove the People to the
Virgo of Ruin.

Now that hostilities have begun
between China and Japan over Corea,
stories of the terrible misrule of the
peninsula are coming out. 1t has been
reported that the assassination of Kim
Ok Hum was the real cause Of the up
rising of the Togaku-to, or seceeders.
Nothing could be further from the
truth. This society was formed at
least two years before Kim came to his
end, and it was brought into existence
solely to redress grievances which had
become insupportable.
An erroneous impression of the in
fluence of Kim in Corea has been given
by Japanese writer's. The simple fact
was that Kim had been in exile in Jap
an so long that he had no strong par
tisans left in Corea. He had dropped
out, and his name was only used as a
sort of rallying cry by young men
who were dissatisfied with the govern
ment. His relatives counted for moth
ing, as they were obscure and poor.
His death created sensation merely
because it was the climax of years of
espionage and treachery,
The Togaku-to was formed of promi-
nent politicians who were frozen out
of public offices and by merchants and
others who had been ruined by the &C.
ton of the palace officials and the dis
trict mandarins. What these exactions
were can only be appreciated by one
who has lived in the Orient and seen
the utter disregard of personal rights
shown by the magistrates, and the cy-
nical contempt for legitimate COM
plants exhibited by the higher officers,
who are supposed to look out for the in
terests of the people. In Corea this op-
preston of the class that has no infu-
ence with the authorities went beyond
aything ever seen in China. Here is
an instance of the ruin brought upon a
man by the intrigues of those in power,
In one of the remote procedures near
the Chinese line lived a farmer who
had owned for years a small tract of
land and cow. They merely sufliced
to give him an ordinary living. The
governor, learning of his independence,
appointed the farmer an honorary Of

for feeding the family COW and horse,
in many cases of more than half the
value of a good well-ripened crop.
Most fields will turn off one and a
half to two tons per acre, worth in the
towns five dollars per ton. In very
many years in the past, average crops,
well-ripened, husked, and delivered in
our market, would not bring any more
money. Milk cows fed on fodder will
increase their flow of milk.
Let every farmer try to carry over to
next fall all the shoats he can. They
can be carried through the winter with
very little grain, and when spring
comes they will live and make con-
siderable growth on grass alone, and a
little skim-milk, the by-product of the

old or comparatively useless should be

CARE OF THE LASHES
Hints for Making Them as Lovely as

Of the regulation heroine eyelash. the
first step towards obtaining it is to
cure any trouble you may have with
your eyes. All local irritation is as
bad for the lashes as it is to the eyes
themselves. The tendency to rub the
eyes invariably results in thinning the
lashes. Infiamed eyelids always bring
about thin, short 'scrubby" Iashes. If
the lids are inclined to be infamed
a wash Of two or three drops of cam
phor, a teaspoon of bOrax and two
ounces of water is valuable. A mix
ture Of two parts to one of witch
hazel, allowed to simmer and applied
very nearly hot, is also soothing to in
famed eyelids.
When these washes are being used
to strengthen the eyes, soothe the lid
and preserve the lashes from total de-
the Iashes may be rubbed
every night with some greasy oint-
ment to encourage their growth. Vase
line is probably the best thing to slim
ulate the growth and give a good dark
color to the eyebrows and eyelashes.
