4 J4pANEsE yrEW OF us.

MT. Makoto is Japanese who has travelled extensively in Europe and the United States, and he has kept his eyes and ears open during his travels He has told In Japan about some of what he saw and heard when he was abroad, and it is interesting to notice what he says about us and our English relatives and friends. As to social conditions in the United States he says: T found that wages seemed to be no more than bare living. In the coal mining re- gions of Pennsylvania, Ohio and Illinois what they choose to call liberty is real ly slavery" And after picturing con- ditions in merry England, the stunted children, the toiling men and women, the habits of drunkenness, the long machinery, the brutality of masters, he concludes with the remark, Strange fact, many cannot get work at all, while those at work toll to exhaustion" And concerning Japan's superiority to this country he says: "In our loved land the contrasts between rich and poor are narrower. Our dwellings do not indicate such great extremes, and the politeness of our working people is in marked contrast to the rudeness, profanity and threats of American streets"
 Well, well! Do we look like that to other people? And are we like that? IT we are perhaps we had better ask for some missionaries from Japan.

SOME USEFUL TIOy

After teaching the Spaniards 50 much
 perhaps we can learn something from
 them. Our consul at La Guayra seems
 to think that there is a chance for us He has written to the state department
 calling attention to the need there Is. If American trade is to be extended to South America, for our business houses to exercise greater degree of care in the selection of those travelling men whom they send to that country to rep- resent them. He says that there is no need of sending men to sell goods in South America unless they understand Spanish and can accommodate them selves to the habits and customs of a people pre-eminently different from our own. To simply attempt to drive trade through on the American system is to invite failure. The Spanish American people are not ''hustlers," and they do not wish to be hustled into a bargain. l lG lTdulIlOIidl ui6llOuS or the Ar1erl- can drummer are all right in many. and perhaps most, parts of the United States; but they are thrown away when practiced upon the people of Mexico, Central and South America. Another needed qualification is that the trav- cling salesman should have the in- stincts and manners of Q gentleman Our consul complains that men have been sent down to Venezuela by Ameri- can business firms, whose personal be- havior has been such as to not only cause the native merchants to look up- on them as persons with whom business relations should not be entered into, but has also served to give to American business houses generally a bad reputa- tion. The trade of the country as a whole has suffered because of the dis creditable conduct and character of certain American travelling salesmen. The English and German representa- tives, he says, are wholly different as a rule; they are usually well informed.

INVITED STATES MAGIO.

| When Aladdin wanted anything he
 rubbed his lamp. When our lucky men
 want anything they rub pencil on
 piece of paper and hand the paper to
 broker. Wonderful tales are told of
 what has been done in the way Of
 money-making during the last two
 years. One man has made a million in six months. Others have made ample fortunes in a day or two. But the most
 wonderful tale that is told seems to us | to be that concerning the money-mak- ing of H, c. and J. H. Moore of Dia- mond Match, National Biscuit and Tin Plate fame. These men, who failed for $4 900, 900 two and a half years ago have settled with all their creditors. Within ten days they have paid out $50O,0oO in cash. The Diamond Match company has received $2O0,O00 from the Moores in full liquidation of their indebtedness to it. They have paid the $4,0O00O0 which they owed in cash and stock in the Ma tional Biscuit and American Tin Plate companies. and it has all been done in less than one year since February 28, 1898, when the Biscuit company was re- organized. One of the results of their downfall was the means of their finan- cial rehabilitation. P. D. Armour and George Pullman found themselves large owners of New York Biscuit stock. w. H. Moore suggested that the best way to end the disastrous trade war between that company and the American Biscuit company was to consolidate the two companies. The Moores were engaged to organize an underwriting syndicate, which fioated the National Biscuit company, with capital of $55, 900, 900. The promoters received $6, GOO, 900 of com- mon stock for their services and to-day that stock is worth 54 cents on the dol- lar. They also received $1O,O0o,0OO of common stock in the American Tin Plate company, for promoting that $5O, O,0O0 deal, the common stock in which is to-day worth 40 cents on the dollar. They are now bringing about another great combine on steel billet mills.
 This is first-class United States magic. The Filipinos would do we'll to stop try ing to bluff us and turn their attention to our stock market.

terials, but this was because of it's en- tire newness, and because it was the cheapest form in which the model is yet to be had. In red broadcloth, with Rus sian sable taking the lines held by this braidng the price was enough to take wornan's breath.
 Why any shade of red should be called automobile is a matter for guess ing. Probably 1t was so named to give teh idea of newness. Anyway, it is very stylish. It is a beautifully soft, warm shade suggesting that the dye was a mixture of red and purple There is a faint tint of the latter shade in it, and it is improving. The color is in several shades, the darkest being very rich. It is found in almost all materials, too, but wash goods. It is especially handsome in velvet, and is much used for opera cloaks and hoods, and in kersey or broadcloth for those who do not desire the more elaborate affairs. Velvets re- quire much richer colors and adornment than do cloths. Squirrel will do nicely in the latter, while nothing short of er- mine, or sable would be appropriate for velvet In this peculiar shade, so rich ia the effect.
 There is variety of new designs in piques, the most attractive being the Dresden pattern in pansies. Their varlegated colorings, and leaves are perfect in outline and shading.

 Seven miles to the north and a little to the east of the Cheyenne Indian agency in Custer county, Mon, is a we'll filled with ice that excites much curiosi- ty among the ranchers and cattlemen of that section. Every cowboy who vis- it's the well has much to tell and inva- riably advances his own explanation. Many ingenious theories are given which tend to indicate that mankind of all degrees of scientific knowledge put forth an effort to find the origin of things; however, they all agree that the ice forms in the well during the sum- mer and that it actually thaws during the winter.
