London Ladies' Pictorial.
 Of Japan. with all its marvelously rapid changes from feudalism and isolation to a position among the Powers of the world, 1t is true today, as it was forty years ago, when Sir Rutherford Alcock wrote: Japan is the very paradise of babies" Sir Rutherford saw innumer- able infants in the three years he was in Japan. and as he was physician as well as diplomat and was keen observer as all physicians and diplomats should be-we may take it that he spoke the truth Judging by his description of the native youngsters, it is small wonder that Her Maiesty's Minister to the Court of the great prince" or Tycoon: as the shogoi called himself in those days had to write about them. He could not help it. His book. by the way, The Capi- tai of Tycoon" is vivid and delightful picture of the days when old Japan Wal passing away and new Japan was nearly ready to come out of its chrysalis.

Why a Lessened Meat Productionr

The Worlds Work.
 Publicity is demanded about the whole subject of the supply of meat The crops of cotton, corn and oats have steadily increased during the last twenty years, but the production of cattle has fallen of. In 1900. for example. 1t was per cent. less than it was in 1884; and the production of 1ogs was 10 per cent: less than it was in 1sS2--this in spite of the increased population and the dema ads of the export trade. Why this lessensd production? And what if anything, has the so-called beef trust to do with 1t? The following table Is interesting:
 1882. 1899. Total No. of hogs. ..... A 100000 3S,OOO, 0OO Hogs used by Western
 This shows the growth of the packing industry in spite of the decrease of pro- duction. While there is no necessary in- ference that one has had anything to do with the other. the question is inev- itably raj ,ed whether the consolidaui Dn of the packing houses has caused lower prices to be paid to the farmers.
 The most interesting question in fact raised by the whole discussion of the in- creased price of meat is whether, along with the enormous benefits that the great packing houses have conferred on mankind. they have discouraged the pro- duction of a normal supply.

The Coffee Heart.


The largest part Of the coffee grown
in the world is consumed in the United
States, and some of our life insurance
societies are beginning to realize how
it's excessive use increases the risks of
life. Its effect is in shortening the
long beat Of the heart and medical ex-
aminers for insurance companies have
added the term "coffee heart" to their
regular classification Of the functional
arrangements Of that organ. These
physicians advise that the use Of cot.
fee be limited to not more than two
cups a day. Coffee topers, they say,
are plentiful and are as much tied to
their cups as the whisky topper. The
effect Of the coffee upon the heart is
more lasting and consequently worse
than that of liquor.-Detroit Free

FLOWER AND TREE.

Palms lever live more than $50 years.
Ivy has been known to live $50, chest
nut $50. oak 1900. and yew $3.50 years.
Nothing is better for house plants
than to be set out in a gentle. warm
rain, but a cold rain and wind are any
thing but hopeful to them.
In planting trees an important point
not to be forgotten is pressing the soil
down upon the roots SO that they will
come in close contact with it.
A pot Of flowers in bud should re-
ceive all the sunshine possible, but
when the buds open keep them in
shade, and they will last longer.
The largest apple tree in New Eng
land is in Cheshire, Conn. Its trunk
measures n foot above all root ex-
fragments, IS feet 8 inches in circum-
ference.
An orchard, whether young or old,
should not be allowed to grow where
heavy crops of grass are taken every
year. 1t is weakening to the soil and
detrimental to the trees.
In Ashanti there grows a tree resem-
bling in appearance the English oak,
which furnishes excellent butter. This
vegetable butter keeps in perfect con.
dition all the year round in spite of the
heat.

Unnecessary Suffering.

How much wretchedness and misery
there is in the world! Do you add to it
or do you try to help those with whom
you come in contact? Every time you
speak, every time you act, you add to
some ones happiness or misery. On
which side do you throw your infu-
ence? Your opportunities may not be
great, but do you ever cause unneces-
sary suffering in a world wretched
enough at best? 1t ig worth thinking
about. Do you say cruel things when
you might say things that would be
kind?. If you have the habit, doesn't it
sometimes occur to you that you should
quit it? The writer Of this has been
thoughtless many times, but as he
grows older he tries very hard to avoid
giving unnecessary pain. - AtchisoD

One Of their favorite exercises is to

Another of their exercises is to drink

A Prominent Clergyman Tells
How He Escaped from His
Deadly Perils.

When spring comes with its gentle
showers, it's balmy aft, its bright sun
shine and bursting buds, it too often
brings to our homes enc of suffer-
ing and physical decay.
The seeds of disease which were inn
p%erceptibly terminating during the
winter months, have developed and
planted in the system dangers that
now call for our instant care and ait
tention. Neglect and representation
will only deepen existing perils and
lead to death.
Before the advent of spring, you.
must have noted symptoms, perhaps
of indigestion, dyspepsia, rheumatism,
neuralgia, kidney disease. liver COM
plant, functional Irregularities, or
v disorders.
. Take warning sufferers! the symp-
toms you experience are signals of
disease. Delay not another day; hes
itation and indecision on your part
may forever seal your fate. If you
have already made efforts to Danish
your troubles by the use OF other med
icines and the treatment OF physicians,
and these have failed. we council you
to put full trust in that great disease
banisher, Paine's Celery Compound.
Its use for a week or two will convince
yout hat you have truly commenced a
new existence. Rev. w. b. Aldridge,
a leading and prominent Clergyman
of Birmingham, Ala, says:
81 had been afflicted for ten years
with what I Thought to be heart
disease, but after having the physi-
clans examine me, I learned that
was almost dead from indigestion,
They told me they would give me- med
icine that would relieve me but there
was no permanent cure. Then I be-
aan using Paine's Celery Compound
which gave me immediate relief, and
I am now we'll and enjoying good
health. I can recommend Paine's Gel
cry Compound to be the best medicine
for all ailments; if people will use the
Compound freely, they wiH have nc
doctors bills to pay"
