In the guest room in every house where there are sons are tiny models of the Elm. peror and his court and of famous Japanese soldiers and statesmen, some of whom lived many hundred years ago These figures are clad in gorgeous robes or in armor and look absolutely fearless; indeed. some of them appear exceedingly fierce. Of course these help boy to keep his countrys heroes fresh in mind, Besides these images of people there are models of spirited horses, and there are toy arrows and swords and spears th It belong to the olden time and guns of today.
 While the children look at these tiny i'm ages, placed on a sort of platform at one end of the room, they listen to exciting stories told them by their parents of the brave men they see before them in miniature.
 There are many dantieS for the children to eat on this festal day. but not of the sort American lads would care for, except, per haps, the sugar waferS The bits of raw fish, with bean sauce poured over them, and the unsweetened custard, with sivers of fish in it, and the salads would not appear in vitlng at all, but one would enjoy seeing. how daintily and prettily all the food is served and how each persons meal is set on the floor before him on lacquered tray.

and out of doors. having a fine time. What a sight will greet them if they happen to live in great city like Tokyo; for above the houses, far and near. will float fish of all sorts and sizes. On the roof of every house in which a baby boy has come during the year is erected bamboo pole, and from the top of 1t floats fish of the sort that is called carp (gold fish), which are of many colors and shapes. These carp are made of paper or silk and are startlingly lifelike. The mouth Is kept open by a wire or hoop, so that the air ca n fill the fish and make it swell out even to It's fins, and as there Is only a small opening in the tail for the air to pass out 1t cannot get out so quickly as 1t gets in and so the fish floats like a balloon and makes motions with body and fins as if it were really swimming in water. Fancy thousands of these wonderfully made, beau tifully colored carp-ranging in size from little fellows of a foot in length to monsters 15 or 20 feet ong-'swimming' in the air overhead! Wouldn't 1t make you feel, as one writer has put it, as if the world and sky had been suddenly turned into great globeful of fish?
 Sometimes there will be several fish float ing from one pole and sometimes a tiny fish will be fastened to the tail of big one. Then

their country so deyotediy that they will gladly die, if necessary, for either. They are also taught that unless they are brave and determined they cannot serve country and Emperor as they should.
 You know, do you not, how hard it is to swim or row against the current? The carp sets bravely abont this difficult task of swim ming upstream and often succeeds in his effort. In the old fairy tales of Japan there are legends of how carp have been known to climb waterfalls. When one succeeds in doing this great white cloud comes down upon the water and catches up the carp and carries it away off and turns it into a mag nificent dragon, which is the very luckiest thing that can happen to q fish-a Japanese fish, 1 mean.
 So. you see, the boys are reminded by these paper fish, or koi, as they are called in Japan, that as a carp struggles up the stream in spite of difficulties and dangers, so the truly brave boy will fight his way through the world and conquer all obstacles that beset his path.
 All day long the koi rustic overhead, while the boys fence with toy swords and play that they are brave warriors defending their country.

 As soon as James reached the room he bolted the door on the inside. Then he opened a secret door that led from his room to his fathers library. He walked softly along the passageway until he reached the library Once there he took down from the topmost shelf the oldest volume of poetry he could find. Nobody will ever know said he to himself, "and I must win that golden ball." He copied a poem and re- placed the book. Thep he went back to his room.

 The owner of the bulldog used to let him run around in the cellar for exercise, but one morning the dog got tired of his narrow quarters, and went up stairs into a ne'ghboring fruit store, where the black cat lived.
 Of course. the cat did not like to nave any one come into her home without an invitation. much less one of her old nat ural enemies-the dogs. So as soon as the dog entered out jumped the eat full upon him, and. of course, a fight followed, W hich naturally drew into it the owner of the fruit store and the owner of the dog.

Good afternoon, Uncle Sam. You see we have come again. as you said we might. We told our teachers how glad you were to talk with us, and how much you told Us about Mnrconi. They said it was fine. We told some other folks. too. and they just said h'ml And now, Uncle Sam, will you tell us something about your submarine boats?'
 With pleasure, my boys. Your Uncle Samuel doesn't tell everything he knows any more than other folks do. but you young Americans have is good a right as anybody to information about my little fleet of submarines. In the first place, the idea of travelling under water is not at all new. Men have initiated every kind of animal under the sun. It is not surprising, then, to find them trying to navigate the air like birds. or the sea like fishes. Four hundred years ago, when Spain was great power, there was an attempt to build q submarine craft at Toledo Ever since then the idea of q great fish of wood or steel. with human brains, has been q most attractive one.'
 "Didn't Jules Verne figure it out pretty well, Uncle Sam, i'll that story of his Twenty Thousand Leagues under the SeaY"
 That was a good story. and a fine ex- ample of the fanciful side of submarine navigation. 1 enjoyed the yarn myself, boys, but you know a novelist can leave some of the knotty problems to he guessed out by his readers, especially if the novelist happens to be Jules Verne. But to come closer home, do you know that during the Revolutionary War a Yankee from Con necticut named Bushnell built submarine boat just large enough to carry one man? It was operated by hand, and Bushnell undertook to fasten q torpedo to the bottom of British frgate h New York Harbor. He would likely have succeeded had not the torpedo screw iiek copper bolt in the vessels wooden bottom. It was close

The Golden Ball.
BY SIMON T. STERN.

When the sons of King Beneficent were very young they went to school, the Wizard Wiseman acting their teacher. One spring day he called the three young princes to his cell and spoke to them as follows:
 Princes, give you greeting. l want each of you to write a poem. To the one who writes the best original poem by tomorrow l shall give this golden ball. and he held out splendid golden ball that sparkled in the sunlight
 The youngest prince, Richard, went at once to his room and started in to write, for he was very anxious to win the splendid trophy His brothers saw, and flouted him. "Work away, you grind said they derlsive- ly. Writing poetry is talent not drudg- cry. We shall not work half as hard and I dare say TIT poems shall be twice as good" But Richard said nothing and continued his work.
 John and James were quite as eager as he to gain the golden ball; this time they were not only rivals to Richard. but to each other. John went at once to his room and James
The age-herald., 1902-05-04


 The next day they all handed in their work and awaited the Wizard decision
 It was four days before he sent for them. Richard" said he to the youngest prince, your poem is not nearly as good as the other two.''
 T did my best" said Richard. More than that you can ask of no man.
 Quite so,'' said the Wizard Wlseman. "As for your brothers poems, they are gems, and so evenly balanced in merit that can not choose between them.- Both are very, very fine"
 DO not trouble yourself further,' said John and James, overjoyed; we do not care You can bestow on us the prize in common'
 q said nothing about the prize" rejoined the Wizard. "I merely said that both of your poems were very, very fine. They ought to be-they were written by one of our most illustrious poets. You copied yours, John; you copied yours, James, and the funniest part of it is that you both copied the same poem. There they are-word for word aiike."f
 So Richard got the prize after all.
 Boys" said the Wizard, as he gave the golden ball to the youngest prince, "it is fine thing to be clever, but the man who Is too clever often overreaches himself"
 And John and James ruefully looked up the word "overreach'' in their dictionaries, and said they guessed hc was right.
