The hremen Of japan spend their
time when not engaged in subduing
flames in building operations and
hence there Is a mild suspicion that
the hremen are not over anxious to
minimize the ravsges Of IRE lest their
other occupation OF housebuilding
should suffer. The average fireman is

The fremen a little over so years
ago numbered 10000, but their PRESENT
strength is 1.640. The reduction Is due
TO the introduction Of modern fire en-
gines, which have greatly mitigated
the horrors OF a FIRE In a town Of wood

pressed the firemen with q sense Of
their waning Importance, for they have
no longer absolute control over fires.
The authorities Of today are content II
the annual fires do not cover more
than one hundredth part OF the city.
What the annual ravages were in for
mer times is q matter Of historical
record. The IRE Of 1857 practically
destroyed the entire city. and over one
hundred thousand persons are said to
have persisted in the Games. The Sho-
guns palace was reduced 10 ashes, and
the prisons were opened on condition
that their inmates should return after
the IRE was subdued. They never
came back, for their mad rush for a
place OF safety was interpreted by the
Warder Of the city gate as an attempt
at escape. He closed the gate when
he saw them coming, and they, to-

The Lap women who live In Alaska
are proving themselves exceedingly
valuable by their aptness in the man
agement and care Of the reindeer and
they are now teaching the native Alas
kan art, II such It may be called. There
are about a dozen reindeer stations
now established in Alaska and more
to follow. The natives are required to
serve an Apprenticeship Of several
years at the reindeer stations. During
this time they are practically taught
how to manage the deer and the max
ing Of sledges and reindeer harness.
After the expiration OF their service
the government allows each a number
Of deer as his own personal property.
The total number OF reindeer in Alas
ka at present Is $500, of which some
1000 have been distributed to the Es-
KINDS.
The average Lap woman Is a pic
turesque figure. She Is generally young
and robust, and ten chances to one
has an infant in her characteristic
Lapland cradle, which IL hsWn out Of

Tstrap. The wife Of the chief herder
is one Of the most noted women OF
the colony. She Is very intelligent, and
her particular duty is to teach the Es-
kmo women the art Of making rein
deer clothing. which is the warmest
and best adapted for Arctic climates.
She also instruets them how to pre-
pare the various foodstufis which the
reindeer furnishes. such as butter,
cheese. and the cooking and the dry
ing OF the meat For this work she
receives the same pay Is the herders.
She travels from station to station,
where the classes Of women are assem-
bled from the surrounding county OF

give each child the same number.
How did she do It? The class hadn't

insisted that his aunt knew nothing

Recent investigations made By the
department OF agriculture show that
mushrooms are about equal to pota-
toes in the element Of nutrition that
goes to make flesh and blood, but
that, on the other hand. they do not
hold much OF the fuel stun required to
keep the body machine running. Con-
tanning, as they do, very large per

tables in respect TO food value. The
notion that their composition resem-
bles closely that Of meat-a eoncep-
ton which has caused the term veg
etahle beefsteak" to be applied to them
is an absurd error. One would
have to consume eight pounds OF
mushrooms in a day in order to take

or mutton. The great usefulness Of
mushrooms lies in the palatablensss
which they give to other food mate
