Many moons ago ths BULLETIN,
discussing the prospects of Japa-
nese emigration, held it as proba-
bic that the changing conditions
in japan would in time check the
outward flow of population. With
the great development of home
industries there would be a CORES
pondipg advance in wages with
an enhanced domestic demand for
labor. Now an extract from the
Consular Journal is found in an
exchange, saying that the cost OF
living in Japan has nearly doubled
in four years and that wages have
gone up accordingly. The result
is that Japanese coal mine owners
are importing laborers from Corea
The Journal thinks that japanese
competition in industrial lines IL
myth, and that as the Japs in
crease their industrial capacity
their demands for better pay aDo
their power to consume botf
home and imported products vii
be vastly increased.

In view IF The periodical alarms
of diphtheria in these islands, a
report of the value of anti toxine
as q cure for the disease, which
comes from Fort Kent in Maine,
is important. There was terri
BILE epidemic at that place, and,
the local doctors having been
baffled, an appeal was made to the
State Board Of Heath. In res
pouse DR.. Johnston of Augusta
was sent up with good supply oi
the anti. toxine, and here is the
published record of results: The
doctor found there had been
twenty five deaths 10 a few days
aud there were sevpnty-tive cases
then in existence. He went Wig
orousIy to work. administered tn
remedy to every patient and had
only two deaths from patients, in
whom the disease was far advanced
when he arrived. Now there j.
no sign of diphlheria in the vii
lage and the doctor has returned
to his practise convinced the
diphtheria need never be fatal i
anti toxine j. use promptly.

There is no better oil stove
in the market than the justly
celebrated BLUE FLAME for
which we are agents. We have
recently imported fresh lot of
these convenient stoves and
they contain two new improve
ments which add to their de-
STABILITY. One of these is a
regulating screw for the burn
ers and the other is a spring by
which the burners are brought
to the top of the stove when it
is desired to light them. These
stoves are absolutely the best
coal-oil stove in the market
and they are sold at areasonable
price.
In coal and wood stoves we
recommend the PANSY as be-
ing the best. We have it in all
sizes at prices to suit all purses
STEEL Ranges for large fa-
miles and restaurant use are a
speciality with US and we shall
be glad to quote prices at any
time. r'
A useful article in this warm

CELERY AND ASPARAGUS.
How These Vegetables Were Considered by
 Ancients and Their Present Standing.

How These Vegetables Were Considered by
 Aneients and Their Present Standing.
 The feet of armies had gone for ages over the humble celery in Great Britain before it was lifted up to adorn with its bleached stems the tables of tho civilized world and to take a foremost rank among the lux uries which the vegetable world affords. How it would amaze the men of old to see many of their weeds eaten, as is scurvy grass, from the scacoasts of northern Flu rope, when mixed with salads
 Asparagus, originally wild seaeoast plant of Great Britain and Russia, has come down through the ages with all the weight of Greek and Roman approval Plato ate it by tho platefuI, and Aristoph. anes considered it great aid to diges- tion. This culinary plant Is closely related to the famous asphodel, which was sup. posed by the ancients to be the leading flower in the gardens of Elysium. Accord ing to the Roman superstition, the names of the dead fed on the roots of asphodel So abundant is tho wild asparagus on the steppes of Russia that cattle eat it like grass. Not native to America, it has here been raised to its greatest perfection as q table delicacy. It seems to be unquestion- ably stimulus to digestion and is prob ably one of the most wholesome adjuncta of 0 dinner.
 The seeds in some parts of southern Flu rope are dried and used as q substitute for coffee A wild variety in Spain and Por- tugal is considered the crown of a salad. The amount raised in Staten Island and New Jersey for the New York market in creases largely every year.-Calyin Dill Wilson in Lippincott's s For November.

THE CITY OF THE FUTURE.
Water Power Will Displaoe Coal and Iron
 as the Natural Focus.

The modern industrial city has been de- pendent for it's rapid expansion unon its superior advantages with respect to coal that is, it must have either nayigable water front or be a natural railway re- eeiying and distributing center or be the natural focus of q coal and iron region All this will be changed in the great cleo trical waterfall cities of the future. The power, as a rule, will be produced in the mountains, while the cities will be scat ssged far and wide over the foothills. There will be better air, more room, better drainage, more civilized conditions of liy- ing than is the case with the present over crowded industrial beehiyes, built for the most part, on the swampy deltas or in the valleys of great rivers.
 Under the pressure of dear coal and with the attraction of cheap water power. the face of Europe will be changed. As fn dicated by Lord Kelvin. the highlands of Scotland will become industrially more important to Great Britain than the com paratiyely fiat midlands Switzerland, Nor way and Sweden the Austrian pyrol and Pennsylvania may become the industrial centers of Europe owing to their superior ity in water power For the rest, the course of manufactures will seek the sources of the great rivers or of rivers not great which have q very rapid fall
 In distant lands we find English engi- neers already making plans for saving the energy of the falls of the Nile, 15 miles be- low Cairo, and i6 is we'll within the bounds of probability that the Nile cataracts will some day supply the power necessary for running trains of cars from Alexandria to Khartum. Not only are there magnif- cent falls on the Zambezi itself, in south central Africa, but many of it's branches in the Shire highlands have rapid descents in level, admirably suited for the develop ment of electricity by turbine wheels.
 Me too often think of Hindustan as a great plain, forgetting that the Himalaya mountains, the highest on the globe, gave birth to tho Ganges, the Indus, the Brah- naputra and the Oxus, all of which, with their mountain tributaries, reach the plains after taking innumerable giant leaps down the mountain sides. 1t is nonsense to say that the development of this water power is visionary. The falls of the Zambezi are much more within the range of civiliza- tion today than any part of Montana, for example, in the United States, was 30 years ago.-E. H. Mullin in Cassier's MagaZine

BEHIND THE FINGER.
Lillian Bell Gets Hex First Taste of Real
 Liberty In England.

Liberty In England.
 impressions of the old world and Its people for The Ladies' Home Journal, writes from London Tn the November issue ot that magazine: 'I have seen the houses oi parliament and the Tower and Westmin- ster abbey and the Worlds fair, but the most impressive sight I ever beheld Is the upraised hand of a London policeman. ] never heard one of them speak except when spoken to. But let one little blue coated man raise his forefnger, and every vehicle on wheels stops, and stops instantly, stops in obedience to law and order, stops with out swearing or gesticulating or abuse, stops with no underhanded trying to drive out of line and get by on the other side. Just stops-that is the end of it. And whyf Because the queen of England is behind that raised finger. Why, Q London police man has more power than our president. Even the queens coachmen obey that fore finger Understanding how to obey-that is what makes liberty.
 1T am the most fiamboyant of Ameri- cans, the most hopelessly addicted to my own country, but must admit that had my first real taste of liberty in England. will tell you why In America nobody obeys anybody. We make our laws and then most industriously set about study ing out plan by which we may evade them. America is suffering, as all repub- lies must of necessity suffer, from liberty in the hands of the multitude. The null titude are ignorant, and liberty in the hands of the ignorant is always license.

A TALK WITH ANDREE.
FLe Aeronaut Recognized the Danger of
 His Undertaking.

His Undertaking.
 Jonas Stadling. who accompanied An. dree to Dancs island and witnessed his de- parture toward the north pole, contributes 70 the November Century an article entitled "Andree's Flight Into the Un- known. " This is accompanied by num- Der of interesting photographs. including several of the balloon after it had been gut loose and had begun it's flight Mir Stadling says
 The acronauts were impatient to start this year They had decided to wait for roally favorable winds until tho 17th of July After that date they were prepared to start with less favorable wind
 In my talks with them about the risks and dangers of their undertaking they said at various times:
 We hayo taken all into account We are prepared to face whatever may hap pen. "
 Suppose the balloon should burst, D I asked what thenY'
 We shall be drowned or crushed
 Suppose you alight on the pack ice far away in the dcsolate polar regions, what will you do?'
 We shall do our best and work our way back as far as possible Having during these last years thought, worked and cal cuiated In preparing fer this expedition, we have. so to speak, mentally lived through all possibilities. Now we only de- sire to start and have the thing finished some way or other '
 While talking about home and tho loved ones their faces would assume more seri- ous expression and a faint quiver of the voice might be noticed, but there was no wayering of purpose.
 "When may we begin to hope to hear from you2" asked
 " At least not before three months, and one year, perhaps two years, may olapse before you hear from us, and you may one day be surprised by news of our arrival somew here And if not-if you never hear from us-others will follow i'll our wake until the unknown regions of the north have been surveyed. "
 Those who think the expedition u feat of foolhardiness should remember that humanly speaking, all possible precau- tions were taken toward securing safe voyage. A new and larger balloon might have been made during the previous win ter, but Andree preferred to enlarge the old one Besides q larger balloon would have been still more difficult to handle.

 ODD FELLOWS.
Rebekahs and the Payment of Sick Bon-
 efts-v Various Notes.


 ents-varfous Notes.
 The request by this and many other jurisdictions for permission for Rehekah lodges to pay sick benefits was not grant, ed by the sovereign grand lodge, says The Dominion Odd Fellow. It might be in- teresting to know what strong argument was used against giving our fair Rebekahs the right to pay benefits. Surely If they are able to successfully run so important branch of the order in almost every other respect, they might be intrusted with this further mark of confidence, under care fully provided legislation.

Keep Assessments Paid Up Promptly.
 Council Notes.
 The man who neglccts to pay his assess ments and dues on or before the last day of every month Is putting himself i'll dan ger. Every minute of our existence is q battle of life against death. Every step we take is beset by somo danger, but a man who will permit the protection he owes to his family to be, even for ono minute, im- paired is reckless and taking chances he should not take, snys an exchange. In n kindred order an ex-colleetor of camp failed to pay his assessments and dues. One day later he took his gun and went hunting An accidental discharge killed him instantly He stood one day suspend ed The order mentioned refused to con sider any claim for benefits. None was paid. A member s duty Is far from being done by the payment of his dues and as sessments. He must give a certain portion of his time to the work upon which is based the perpetuity of the order-that of increasing the membership.
 Organize. Let every regent call togoth- CT the members of his council and divid- ing them into committees and securing a list of eligible persons make united effort to obtain their applications.
 Started in Boston in 1877 with but nine members, tho order has steadily grown to almost 200, 000 and has paid out in that time the grand total of over S42, ,000 900

 There should be no reason for the order not succeeding in California in the estab lishment of grand council.

photographing From the Sky.

That the camera will play an important part in the future warfare Is foregone conclusion, but up to the present time the one thing that has been needed to make 1t more useful and quickly available in aerial work has been a simple and reliable lifting power, and this has apparently been found in the perfected form of the tailless kite This kite, or Il train of them, to which a camera can be fixed, will do the work of a balloon and at no risk to human life If an enemy cannot easily hit balloon, how mnch less chance will there be of in jury resulting to so small an object as g camera suspended thousand feet or more in the air.
