petite, bolts what little he does eat and
rushes away to business. He is drowsy
and nervous by turns all day and forces
himself to work against his will. He takes
five minutes for lunch and not a minute to
rest afterward. He goes home at night
utterly tagged out and with no appetite for
supper. The idea of taking medicine or
even taking a little rest never enters his
head. Some night his wife finds him in
the rocking-chair before the fireplace
dead. The doctor will call it nervous pros

The Labor Question I'm Japan.
PHILADELPHIA Record.


A newspaper printed in the interest OF
workingmen has been established In Japan.
1t aims TO advance the rate OF wages, and
advocates as a means to that end the es-
Enlistment OF labor unions. The danger
apprehended by other manufacturing Ia
tiohs that cheap labor IN Japan would
give the producers Of that country an over
whelring advantage Is not likely 10 prove
seriously menacing. As new demand shall
be created for labor in Japan, wages will
commensurately advance. The Indications
are that that swiftly progressive nation is
making an advance along the lines of civil
!zation which involves the whole body of
the people. There is a general lifting up
OF the masses, which Is one OF the most
remarkable occurrences OF the present
century.

It Is again rumored that the street car

one ownership. II this should result in or
be contingent upon a new franchise, II Is
to be hoped chat the city council. without
being too harsh, will provide some securi-
car line out into the suburbs 10 q great
advantage. and where IL runs through
sparsely settled lands 1t cannot be expect
ed that the best service shall DO given.
There have been very few complaints by
the public on this score. but some OF the
roads have been reckless OF public COM
fort In small matters which involve lit
tie cost and show a want OF management.

pride 10 carry into the war the identify
OF the home state. 50 that IL may share
In the hono-s won by is so1s. but that
pride must be suboryiinated to the
greater interests Of the whole country.
Volunteers are 10 be treated precisely
as the regulars ard sene wherever they
are needed II Is the present intention
that wherever practicable two regi-
ments Of volunteers shall be brigaded
with one regiment Of the regular army.
In order that they may receive tnstruc-
tons through contact with disciplined
troops. This win be OF great advantage
10 the volunteers. as they viii be under
brigade commanders who know by ex-
perience how TO care for their men with
a minimum OF exposure and priyation.
The modern idea is not TO waste men.
but TO care for and maintain them in
the highest state Of efficiency. which In.
cludes good health and thoroughness In
drill and discipline.
II any attempt were made to keep the
men OF one state or one organization in
a compact body. confusion and jealousy
would result. The smaller states can
not furnish the same number Of men as
the larger states, yet the rule. IL applied
fairly. would have to extend to every
state alike. The military authorities
have enough anxiety and responsibility
without having to take into considera-
ton in making up the forces the state
whence the men came or the organiza-
ton to which they originally belonged.
The government has manifested dispo-
sition to be fair and considerable, and
the volunteers should surrender them
selves cheerfully to the requirements OF
the service and not manifest petulance
because when massed they find them
selves only small integral parts OF the
whole.

The life OF gun Is one OF the riost IN
satisfactory things about It." remarked an
ordnance officer in discussing the war
question. "and though a number Of expert
ments have been made in connection there
with, there is no absolute certainty as TO
the results. A general rule has been ar
rived at which is thought TO be on the safe
side OF the matter, and that Ii that the
modern steel gun should not be iired more
than 100 times. After that Il matters not
what the emergency may be, II Is safer to
disman:,e the gun ard send Ii back to the
shop than to risk firing II. for the explo-
sion Of a gun Is decidedly and extensive
iy dangerous occurrence to all in ITS imme-
date locality. The firing of a gun causes
the steeel to crystall;se and thereby be-
come brittle as . file. So far as has yet
been discovered. there is no remedy for 1t.
1t IL not exactly total loss after a gun
has become dead. for the steel can be used
for thousands Of things In the way OF bolts,
braces and the like for new work and for
repairs.
A modern gun 10 an expensive affair.
running from $4,000 way up. 1t is equally
expensive to keep II In operation. the cost
for each cartridge sent from it being over
N,00o. which does not include the putting
of the gun on its emplacement or taking
II down. nor the thousands OF dollars nec-
SSSaAhy SAktaocd paying Aisu
subsistence Of the officers and men who
operate II. This capitalization of the
metal Is one OF the mysteries OF the sci
ence OF ordnance. The gun could be re-
vivifled to some extent by heating 1t to
white heat and allowing 1T TO cool OF
slowly, but the treatment Is not exactly
satisfactory or even approximately GER
tain as to results. 1t has been said Of US
rs OF other nations that IL We kept every
gun We own in actual firing operation for
even twenty-four hours the powder and
shell bill would bankrupt us. and there Is
some truth IN 1t. This capitalization of
the metal is not confined to guns, however.
The same thing occurs in the journals or
axles used on the railroad cars. 1t Is for
that reason that careful railroads put on
new axles every five or six years. In
Europe there are laws upon the subject,
though IL is custom with US. In Germany
1t Is unlawful to use an axle on passenger
cars more than four years, though the linz
itation on freight cars IL not SO rigid. AS
with the oft-fred gun, the steel in the
Journal becomes so brittle by the crystal
lixation In consequence Of its use that it is
liable to snap in q dozen pieces any time
after its life Is ended"
