Japanese playthinr. warlike.

The very playthings in Japan have
now warlike character. The Japan
Mail says that even the game of chess
is transformed, the figures being paint
ed clay images representing Japanese
and Chinese soldiers Of various ranks
A long line of mechanical toys, either of
tin or wood, by turning a crank, or by
simple clockwork, are made to show
Chinese combatants i'll large variety of
unenviable positions, sometimes pursued
by japanese troopers. who make terrific
sweeps with sword or lance in a stately
seesaw, or prisoners, caught by their
cues and trying to avoid the rising and
falling blades Clay figures representing
Cinnamon pleading for mercy are used
as paper weights or desk ornaments. In
another bit Of mechanism u Japanese
warship is gradually closing with Chi
ness vessel. The latter is struck, her
flag comes down with rush, and the
doomed vessel sinks beneath the wild
tin waves. A fortress is shown with
Japanese soldiers storming it. A favor
lite bit of clay modelling represents five
or six Chinese caval1ymen i'll full flight
through wood This is TO be found in
nearly every toyshop. Finally little
pinewood box contains tootnpicks, on
each Of which is written some ode, in
almost illegibly microscopic characters
in praise of Japan S warriors.

The Sein islanders rarely eat any AMI.
NAL food except fish. As il is brought
in the women salt it and lay it out to
dry ON the quay wall or ON convenient
rock, so that before the winter they have
made large provision. Dried conger
is especially esteemed. Their ordinary
cooking is well adapted TO keep in check
too eager appetite. Potatoes in their
skins, with layer Of dried fish dropped
upon them during the boiling, is an all
the year round dish, which is consid-
cred one of the most satisfying and eco
nomioal. The common drink is water
or cider. Fresh water is precious, Tor
much of that which is used is brought
over from the mainland.
The women have mode of baking
bread which is probably one of the most
ancient still practiced by mankind. A
thick layer of live embers having been
spread upon the forepart Of the hearth,
circular iron plate foot or more III
diameter is pressed down upon it. Up
on this the dough, made into the desired
shape of the loaf, is laid. Over it is
placed convex iron cover; then fire
of dry seaweed is made upon this. The
seaweed burns slowly and supplies Just
the heat that is needed In every house
there is all that is requisite for baking
in this manner, for although in summer
there is regular supply of bread from
the mainland the furious currents OF the
Raj and the westerly gales may keep
all communication interrupted for
weeks together in the bad season. 1t is
true that there is Geographic cable,
but the means of feeding people by cleo
tricity has yet to be discovered Tom

In typcsetting machinery the applica.
ton of mechanics to the art of printing
is reaching elimination. 1t is stated
that during the last 20 years upward Of
81, 900, 000 have been expended i'll bring
ing the art of setting type by machinery
up to its present state. Now, for all
plain work, typesetting machines are
available. III the London Times Office q
curious arrangement has been adopted
for the composition of the stenographic
notes Of the parliamentary reports in
the house Of commons, i'll which type
setting machines play an important
part. The stenographic notes are read
directly to the operators of the ma,
chimes, instead of being transcribed, as
was formerly the case Men at tele-
phones at the house Of commons read
these notes TO men stationed at receiv-
ers in The Times composing rooms,
who III turn read them to the typsset-
ters. In this way these notes can be set
up i'll type almost as rapidly as they
could be transcribed by an expert type
writer, and ii il said that the number
of errors that creep in are not so numer-
ous as to make the work of correcting
proof much greater than by the old sys
tenn, while considerable saving IN time
and expense is Effected. Engineers

PROTECTION IN ENGLAND.

uome Industries Favored In the United
Kingdom.
The manufacturers Of matches in the
United Kingdom appeal to their Gus
toners to buy only English matches, by
placing little printed slip inside the
cover Of the box, asking the people to
patronizo home industry, use English
matches and employ British labor "
Large signs bearing the same views can
uow be seen throughout the country
districts of England. This is exactly
what Republicans urge-namely, that
the American people should patronize
American home industries, use Ameri-
can made goods and employ American
labor The English and American
manufacturers thus have precisely the
same ideas.
Following the plan Of the English
match manufacturers, we find in an
other line of goods the following an
nouncement on the outside of a cover Of
a package Of British goods:

Patents
Notice to Inventors.

There was never time in the history OF
our country when the demand for inventions
and improvements in the arts and sciences
generally was SO great as now. The con.
Veniences of mankind IN the factory and
work shop, the household, on the farm, and
in Official life, require continual accesslons
to the appurtenances and implements to each
in order TO save labor, time ard expense
The political change in the administration
of government does not affect the progress
OF the American inventor, who being on the
alert, and ready to perceive the existing
deficiencies, does not permit the affairs OF
government to deter him from quickly con-
ceiy,ng the remedy to overcome existing
discrepancies. Too great care cannot be
exercised in choosing competent and skill
full attorney to prepare and prosecute an
application for patent Valuable interests
have been lost and destroyed in lnnumeraDie
instances by the employment of incompe-
tent counsel, and especially Is this advice
applicable to those who adopt the mo pat
ent, no pay" system. Inventors who cntrust
their business to this class Of attorneys do
40 at imminent risk, as the breadth and
strength of the patent is never considered in
view of quick endeavOr to get an allowance

No Blanks in this Competition.


This is competition Of rather an unusual
nature 1t IS common to offer prizes for the
best story, or picture, or architectural plan.
all the competitors risklng the loss of their
labor and the successful one merely selling
his for the amount Of the prize. But the
Press Claims Company's offer is something
entirely different Each person is asked
merely TO help himself, and the one who
helps himself to the best advantage is to be
rewardct FOR doing it. The prize is only a
Stimulus to DO something that would be well
worth doing It, The architect whose com.
retitive plan for club house on a certain
corner is not accepted has spent his labor on
,methng of very little use,:o him But the
erson who patents simple and useful dc.
iice in the Press Claims CompaGp's Compe-
: tlti0n, need not worry if he fail to securc the
prize. He has substantial result TO show
for his work one That will command its val.
ue in the market at any time.
The plain man WHO uses any article in his
t daily work ought to know better how to I'M
prove it than the mechanical expert who
studies it only from the theoretical point of
v view Get rid of the rid of the idea that an
Improvement can be too simple to be worth
pa,cnting 'i'Ec simbler the better. The
person who best succeeds in combining
simplicity and popularity, will get the Press
Claims Company's twenty five hundred dol,
lars.
The responsibility of This company may be
judged from the fact that its stock is hclaby
about three hundred of the leading neWspa.
