a dear old lady was taken one day

Superintendent Bright takes excep-
ton to a brightly colored chart in use
in country schools which represents the
farmer as painfully moving grass
with scythe at SIS 4 month. while
opposite an elegantly dressed clerk
costly sells a bolt OF gingham to a
beautiful young lady at $40 month
and another city clerk below keeps
books on little mahogany desk at
5000 a month.
Mr. Bright objects that the chart
conveys false idea. for the farmer,
who really does his moving by ma
chinery. gets board and lodging with
his $40. while the dapper clerk has to
pay $3.50 month out of his $40 for
board. lodging and car fare. Also the
business houses which are looking
for bright young men 10 keep books AT
5000 month. carefully keep their
of the newspapers.
The only defense of the chart is that
it is calculated to make pupils think"
This is true. 1t will make them think
that the authorities which display the
chart have something the matter with
their intellectuals.
1t Is rather odd that so much energy
IS devoted to making pupils think
when very likely small part of the
same energy directed to the desirable
end of making the educators think
would have a much better result

There is Il clock on building near

Bridge which is looked at every day
by more persons than any other clock
in the city, perhaps in the whole coun-
try. The clock is in plain view from
the promenade and from the cars The
hundreds of thousands who sleep in
Brooklyn and work in Manhattan re-
gard il as an infallible guide, and
every morning four-tifths of them set
their watches by it.
Every one knows when he arrives
within seeing distance of the clock,
and there is general craning of necks
to get peep at its face. If it should
ever run slow or fast, the business en-
gagements of 100000 persons might be
disarranged.-New York Mail and Ex-

INSIDE JAPAN.
Fist Fights Preface Death Struggles - No
Wife-Beating.


In spite of qualities of easily aroused
anita gonism, of pride and Spartan
ideals, the Japanese are an essentially
gentle race-more SO than the Anglo
Saxons. Broils in which one man hits
another are of rare occurrence: blows
are generally the preface of death
struggle. The women may often suf-
fer from the prevailing ideals of mo-
rality, which are yet much lower than
ours, but there are few wife heaters,
and the home atmosphere is almost al
ways outwardly peaceful. 1t follows
that little true poltieneSs on the part
of the foreigner goes long way. and
almost invariably meets with a warm
recognition: you rarely appeal TO the
japanese in vain. They are as quick
to respond to an act of real kindness
as they are to resent an act which has
a tinge of arrogance. Our Government
allowed several transports with re-
turning volunteers to stop at Yoke
hama, and so hundreds of American
soldiers visited that city and Toxic.
One of them hired bicycle and was
taking ride about the streets of Yo-
kohama when he ran down an elderly
Japanese Hdu. lie
bell several times, but the japanese
apparently paid no attention TO it, and
the American found himself promptly
arrested and taken to court. where he
was fined ten yen go. He protested
that he had done everything possible
to avert the accident. and asked why
the man made not attempt to get out
of the way. The policeman then told
him that the man was blind. The sol
der looked daZed for minute, then
felt in his pocket and brought out
ten-dollar bill. Here" he said, Its
the last I've got. but he can have II.
and he turned it over to the blind man.
The Japanese We're deeply touched,
ana that same day a delegation of po-
licemen hunted up the soldier and gave
him back his tine.-Anna \. Benja-
min in AinSlee's.

The English tongue seems to have
the advantage to-day. \ hundred
years ago English was a barbarous
sound to most of the inhabitants of
the globe. In 1900 there were only
twenty millions who heard that drum
beat which Daniel Webster spoke of
later as rolling around the world. To
day there is more warning of suprem-
acy often in the English voice than in
the English trumpet.

The project of cutting canal
through the north island of New Zea-
land is again revived. The city of
Auckland says correspondent Of
the Cleveland Plain Dealer lis situat-
ed on the east coast of the island but
Oh an exceedingly narrow isthmus, and
has large trade connections, both east
and west. AT the narrowest point the
isthmus is only some three quarters of
a mile broad. but on both sides of this
the water is shallow. and the canal in
consequence, would be work of some
magnitude. 1t is. however, of great
importance, and would bring Auck-
land over Il hundred miles nearer
