where Age Is Looked up 10.

The parents word is always law in
Japan and perhaps this accounts for.
the sweetness and gentleness Of the
Japanese character. The japanese are
inherently an obedient people. The
old always take precedence of the
young in all things. An eager, inn
petuous young man, be he ever so bril-
liant and clever, is not expected in
Japan to have the reason, the wisdom
and the foresigh of an old man. There
fore the old man comes first always.
As q result, there is, perhaps, more
general happiness in Japan than any
where else in the world. One might
imagine that where duty lis carried to
the extent it is in Japan the natural
love is not much in evidence mean
the actual affection, rather than the
mere duty, Of a child tosits parent. On
the contrary, the natural bond of af-
lection between parents and children
is nowhere so wonderful as in Japan.
No matter how unkind, unjust or even
wicked the parent may be, or how de-
PRAYED, the child invariably clings to
that parent, even though, as is often
the case,,-it own nature be finer

A COUNTER BREEZE.
The Novel Procedure Of the Koreans
When a House Takes
Fire.

The land where they make least
trouble about a house on fire is per-
haps Corea, possibly because there is
about the houses very little to burn.
When several dwellings at once ere in
danger, however, even the Coreans
think it time to bestir themselves.
Then the king sends out hundred or
more soldiers, who calmly view the
fire and offer help if necessary. Should
they really decide that it is necessary,
they set to work in what would to west
ern eyes seem novel manned.
They usually bring along with them
a ships anchor fastened to a long
thick rope. This anchor they fix in the
burning beam, and so or so men at a
time pull at the rope in order to bring
j the beam down.
It is when the sparks resulting from
this operation are, drivenFby the wind
across the street that peculiar and
characteristic met bod Of protecting
property issresorted to blythe Coreans.
The owners Of the endangered
houses, with their friends. male and fe-
male, procure ladders and climb up on
the roofs, standing in rows upon the
upper edges Of the structures. Then
the men strip off their coats, and the
women their large cloaks, and, using
them as fans, wave them rapidly in
order to create a counter breeze, and
drive the sparks away.
The sightis q strange one, and could
be seen nowhere else but in Corea

AMBoY's QUEER LANDLORD.
and Kittens Sole Occupants of
, an Illinois Hotel.

S. ts.Apropos of hotels and hotel keep
ers," said the man who has travelled,
ST have seen a few in my day, but the
queerest hotel keeper ever saw or
heard of was one struck in small
railroad town right here in Illinois,
Amboy, if I remember right, where I
put up one Fourth of July night Is
years ago. The hotel had a name, I
presume, but if it had I've forgotten
it. And the hotel keeper-as far as /
ever knew-Was a cat with nine kit
tens.
You needn't look surprised, gentle
men. I'm telling the truth. AS I said,
it was the night of the Fourth, about
! II o'clock, when reached the place,
and found that on account of its be-
ing holiday the trains made no con-
nections, and the next day would be
Sunday. inquired for the place, found
it and tried TO rap somebody up, but
could get no response. Then I tried
the door, and it opened to my hand.
1 went in, but found no living thing
but family of cats, which unearthed
in the kitchen. The mother cat well
coined me as joyfully as if she hadn't
seen a. human being for month.
swell, I found vacant room at the
head of the first fight of stairs, and
lay down to sleep with my clothes
on. In the morning opened up the
hotel, let the cat and her brood out,
and went to find a livery team that
would take mes to my destination. The
driver proved to be the owner Of the
stable, who told me he hadn't a man
sober enough to drive. 81 asked him if
that was the trouble at the hotel, but
Ehe said it was q temperance house and
they went to bed early. I went back
to pay for my lod ging, but no one was
on duty except the cat and her nine
kittens, and pinned the am cunt to the
pillow of the bed occupied and trust
ed its safe delivery to luck. I thought
l saw sleepy looking head protruding
from an upper window, but dare say
it was only the cat. &C Chicago Times

THE MAN BEHIND THE GUN.
Target Training of Our Jackies IN
Preparation for the War
with Spain.

From the time of the destruction of
the Maine, in the harbor of Havana, on
February Is, our naval force in south
ern waters had been placed partially
upon war footing. twas not by any
means that war was considered newt
able. On the contrary, it was thought
that even should the court of inquiry
decide that the Maine had been treach-
erously destroyed, Spain would meet
all reasonable demands; but the state
of preparation was state of security
demanded by military prudence, and
also was valuable to men and officers
as a discipline and exercise. The men
had already been well trained at the
gunss-well instructed in their mechan-
ism end manuals-the principal bust
ness OF the cruising man-of-war in time
of peace; but to this training was add
ed constant daily target practice with
sub-calibre fre-a form of exercise
which is much approved, and for which
all batteries are now fitted. 1t consists
in firing a small projectile from large
gun, employing the pointing and aim
ing mechanism of the latter. To effect
this the small gun is placed inside the
breech Of the large gun, and precisely
in it's center, and is held there by spe-
cial fitting. So adjusted, it's axis coin
cides with that of the larger piece, and,
except for the shock and recoil, the
normal firing conditions with full
charge are initiated. One-poundersa are
ordinarily employed for the sub cali
Der of the heavy turret-guns, and
musket barrels for those of the sec
ondary batteries During those wait
ing days a Tortugas and Key West,
futtering flags a few hundred yards
from each ship showed the targets, and
for hours each day the splash of bullets
followed the rifle reports with mnonot-
onous regularity. After each shot the
gun was swung off the target, brought
back, and aimed anew for the next,
thus making itsan independe exercise.
It was not inspiring or dramatic, this
steady burning OF, powder in small
quantities during the sultry afternoons,
but it was the sort of work which makes
war deadly, and it bore it's fruit in the
swift and terrible destruction of Ger
vera's feet.--Lieut. s. "a. Staunton, in
Harper's Magazine.
