Peculiar Business Methods.

Japanese engineers seldom specify a
machine to be of given dimensions, of
a certain type and efficiency, and to
perform specified work. They usually
hunt through catalogues until they find
a picture and accompanying descrip
ton which meets their ideas of what
they need. They then write out a
specifica ton which is verbatim copy
of the description in the catalogue, fire.
quently designating the number of the
page upon which it is to be found.
The maker is, of course, to be the party
publishing the catalogue. Much trouble
has arisen from this practice, as some
of the handsomest and most complete
catalogues are published, by supply
houses in America and England which
build nothing whatever, and a machine
with any name, other than that of
the publisher of the catalogue, cast on
it is liable to rejection. Certain Euro
pean firms-and lest this be hurled back
at me from the Old World let me say
here that my attention was first called
to this by an English engineer in
Japan-take contract to supply ma
chimes from specified makers. They
let the contracts to build these ma
chimes to jobbing shops by whom they
are thus built for trifiing sum, and

are worth about what they cost. The
specified makers name is cast upon
the frames of the machines, and the
purchaser, supposing them to be from
these makers, accepts and pays for
them. This has been a common oc-
currence in times past. The Japanese,
however, are progressing so rapidly in
their knowledge of these matters that
this practice is becoming more and
more difficult and less profita BILE, and
will, no doubt, eventually die out alto

Highlands for fortnight's holiday, and

The Rev. Mr.. Horsley, an excellent
Englishman, who has worked for sew
eral years among the inmates of Eng
lish prisons, has written a book based
on his experiences. He has some par
ticularly interesting pages on prison
slang. The chief elements in the earli-
est slang, he thinks. were survivals of
early Celtic or Anglo-Saxon. but at
the beginning of the sixteenth century
the gypsies arrived with a definite Ian
guage of their own, of Indo-Aryan, or.
perhaps Hindoo origin. They united
with the wandering thinkers and was

The bumblebees delve in the thick red
clover,
Tousling and tumbling it over and over;
The far sun shines and the winds go by,
And a sparrow hawk poises above in the
sky.
There is little to learn from the flight Of
the swallow,
Who leads where his gathering comrades
follow;
The stream runs slow and the hills are
high,
And the sparrow hawk poises above in the
sky.
And a clear, sweet note from the ground
is ringing,
Where bird in the silence now is sing
ing;
Like drifts of snow do the white clouds
lie,
And the sparrow hawk poises above in the

PELVIC CATARRH
l New Name For An Old Ailment,
Known AS Female Complaint.

Pelvic catarrh is new name for a
very common disease known as female
weakness. Most women have more or
less what is called female complaint.
This is in reality pelvic catarrh.
There are SO many women, especially
married women, who drag themselves
YEARLY around from year to year, mis-
cradle beyond description. They ache
and tremble and throb, growing moro
nervous, tired and debilitated every day.
For this class Of sufferers Pe-ru-na is
the most perfect remedy in existence
It relieves, it soothes, it quiets, it
strengthens, and no victim of pelvic ca
tarrh in the land should be without Pc
ru-na.
Mrs. A. J. Hull, Leona, Kan, writes:
"I feel as if am entirely well and can
do as much work as when was young.
I don't have any pains about me, and I
thank you q thousand times for curing
me. My trouble was female complaint.
I had falling of the womb and great
pain. tell every woman talk with
that Pe-ru-na is the best for them and
that it saved my life"
Endometritis is the medical term for
catarrh of the womb. Catarrh of the
womb is very common, producing what
is generally called female disease. DIR.

The Return of the Ship.

With banners her masts adjoining,
And fair as the oceans foam,
The ship sailed out in the morning,
Out of her harbor home.
All new from the hand of her maker,
Who watched her sailing away
To battle with storm and breaker,
To wrestle with wind and spray.
'Tis many month since the sailing,
But the builder is hopeful STILL
AS the glow in the west is paling,
He stands on the seward hill
And the ship comes homeward slowly,
All battered, and rent, and frayed:
And he welcomes her though she is lowly
For he loveth the ship he made.
o, Builder of human vessels,
That sail in the morning of youth
Out on the unknown ocean
With yearning for light and truth.
Art Thou for Thy vessels watching,
Awake on Thy seaward hill?
Wilt know us when worn and weary
We wait for Thy further will?
