Japan To-day.

Although the military prestige OF
the Mikado's empire has been materially
increased by the efficiency and self
restraint exhibited by the Japanese
soldiers during the recent disturbances
in China, there IL a disposition in some
quarters to question It's possession Of
the sinews of war, or, In other words, to
cast a doubt on It's financial resources.
it Is worth while to examine tho grounds
for the scepticism concerning Japan's
ability to sustain a protracted contest.
We shall find light thrown upon the
matter by the annual report just issued
by the Department Of Finance IN Tokyo.

This is where the borax king will
find that he is foster-fat her,- and if

that she is putting her money to the

who will quarrel with her ON this

UNIQUE PHILANTHROPY.
Mrs. Smith, Wife of California;
"Borax kinE,' Expects to Adopt
Hundred Girls.

The responsibility of rearing 100
daughters and starting them all prop
.erly in life is one that would cause
most mothers to shudder. Yet that is
what Mrs. F. NJ. Smith, of Oakland,
CAL, is going to take upon herself.
She is going to adopt 100 poor girls
and rear them as tenderly as the fond
est mother would her best loved child.
Mrs. Smith is the wife of the man
who is known throughout the country
as the ''borax king" He controls the
entire borax trade of America and is
rated in California as multi-million-
aire. 1t is the money made from
borax that will permit Mrs. Smith to
care for 100 girls, some of them hardly
more than toddling babies, from now
up to the time when they are young
women and go away to fresides of
their own or to the life work which
they shall select. But if any of them
should not marry or would not show
any inclination to take up a profess
sion, why, then they will do just as
any daughter of any ordinary family
would do-simply stay at home and
live her own life in her own way.
Mrs. Smith is not going to adopt
her hundred girls for any certain
period of years, to be sent away at
the end of that time, regardless of
whether they want to go or are pre-
pared to go or not.
The home which Mrs. Smith will
provide for these homeless girls is to
be home in fact, and the girls are
to be taught to regard it as such.
Mrs. Smiths hundred daughters will
live in ten houses, ten girls to each
house, on 35-acre tract of land, near
Arbor villa, Mrs. Smiths home in Oak
land. The first of the ten houses is
already being built, and work on the
others will begin at once.
The girls are to have every oppor-
tunity to learn all that they wish.
They will go to the public schools
and attend church. Every effort will
be made to equip them with prac-
tical education, as well as the &C.
complishments that an ambitious girl
naturally Graves.
Each girl will be permitted to fol
low her own particular bent. Those
who wish to attend the university
after completing the work of the
graded schools can do so, and those
who wish to become milliners, dress
makers, or follow any other trade or
profession will be given every facility
for doing so.
But think of becoming foster-moth.

The Hair in Hot Weather.

Oil the head at night three times
weekly. On the following day wash
with soap and water, rinse and expose
to the suns heat for as many hours
as possible. Let the sun fall on the
scalp. 1t is not necessary to expose
the entire scalp at one time. One
part may be shielded while another
is having its sun bath. Few people
are aware that by skillful use of
the comb severe straightness can be
remedied. It is difficult to convey in
words correct idea of the necessary
motion of the hand. It resembles
that employed in whisking an egg
into a frothy state. The comb is
moved rapidly and very lightly, with
the result that the hair assumes a
fluffy condition. But this is merely
temporary.
