moment as are carpets here. They are
handed down in families as heirlooms

paper by peculiar process. In ap-
pearance they are much like the lac
quered boxes which come from japan
and which are so much used as hand
kerchief boxes" said the old time
American consul In Korea. 1.-THE ma
tives always take off their sandals
when they enter the house, and that
fact accounts largely for the long life
Of the rugs. When | was there, how
ever, / shocked the feelings Of every
one by wearing my shoes, carpets or
no carpets, and during my stay 1 COM

Earth Notifications.

Military engineers are practically
agreed that no material for fortifica-
tons Is superior to earth. When clay
Is not Obtainable, as on the seashore,
sand is collected into bags, and these
are laid in regular heaps along the line
Of the proposed fertilization. In such
a fertilization the balls from the enc
my's guns sink without doing damage,
and shells explode harmlessly.
