A Japanese architect who makes 3
speciality Of European styles and de-
signs is person not frequently met
in this country, yet such is the profes-
sion Of Mr.. S. Yoshii, Of Toxic, japan,
who arrived in Washington Tuesday.
Mr. Yoshii's card tells that he is the
"chief architect to the ministry Of
communication, architect to the home
department" ETC., and Mr. Yoshii him
self tells some very interesting things
about the architectural phase Of Jap
anese life. Speaking Of this he said:
European architecture is gradually
gaining foothold in Japan, and must
sooner or later dominate, just as Eu-
ropean styles OF dress are soon to
dominate in the big cities. In Toxic
and in other large centres of popula-
tion all the rev business houses are
built ON European plans. They are
found to be more practicable. The
residences are still OF the Japanese
style, and suppose they will bend to

larger and finer residences in the cities

the old customs.
1.-THE Government does not own it's
buildings, but rents them, and these
without exception, are of European
design. Within few years the Gov
ernment will erect its own buildings,
and. Of course, will adopt European
patterns. There are three good Euro
pean hotels in Toxic, and number
that are not SO good. The Europeans

at the other, and was struck by the
wonderful resemblance.

Why Eggs Are EigI, I'm Winter.

Eggs are always high during the cold
season, and the scarcity is due as much
to the lack OF warmth as to the food

summer they then have exercise and
Go not suffer from cold. To get eggs
in winter give the fowls summe: con-

with warm quarters. having plenty OF
window glass, and allowing materials
as litter in which they may scratch.
It is not necessary to feed an abund-

should be allowed. Give q variety
and give it in manner so that the
fowls will scratch and work, as the
exercise will keep them warm and
