JAPANESE WOMEN
 AND AMERICAN.
Washington Star

Washington Star.
 The beauty and charm of the American girl is so generally conceded that 1t may be surprise to learn that there is a spot on the earth where her appearance fails to make a favorable impression; where. in fact, her features are regarded as the reverse of prepossessing.
 In this respect an American girl, re- gently returned, from the Orient, relates an amusing experience. that has since kept her wondering If the comments she 50 often receives are not the, most bare- faced fiattery and the looking glass a miserable deception.
 It happened in this way: A short time before leaving Japan she was visiting a friend who resided in part of the country little frequented by foreigners. the quaint main thoroughfare of the town, much observed by the populace in general. when they became conscious that they were the objects of curious atten- tion on the part of two Japanese girls, ticular, who followed close on their foot steps.
 Presently the resident turned to her visitor with a smile and remarked: Tt seems we are the subjects of good deal women following us. What do you think they are sayingY'
 lf"I cannot guess" the visitor replied. Please tell me-"
  and violently resent their criticisms"
 Certainly"
 "Then this is a translation of what they have been saying about us. said Miss Peach Blossom to the Hon. MT. Chrys- anthemum: "Oh, do look at those foreign women. See how strangely they are dressed. They wear short kimonos just like men. How very improper
 Yes acquiesced the other. The for eign women have no taste in dress. In Tokio, where l have been once, no for eign womans toilet is complete without a stuffed bird on her head. If she has not enough money to buy a whole stuffed bird, she buys head, the wings or some feathers. They are very strange, the for eign women
 But exclaimed the first, Did you notice the terrible size of the noses of these two foreign women? Are the noses of all foreign women as large as theseT
 Yes, they are large. But they are proud of their large noses. The foreign women do not consider large nose a dsiigurement'
 " How very strange, and see. their eyes are round as the full moon.
 !" Yes, as round as the full moon. They stare at you without any expression or feeling.''
 " And their walk. Do look at their walk, so ungainiy, just like great big birds
 stop" interposed the visitor. "I've heard enough, or I shall begin to imag- inc Tn the most hideous creature on earth"
 You will get many such shocks to vanity if you stay long enough in Japan" laughingly returned the resident.

AN ISLAND OR THE IRISH SEA.
The Calf of Man is the Property of a
 Citizen of Toledo.

Toledo Bee. =
 1t may not be generally known. but to 0 Toledo man belongs the distinction Of owning an island that by reason Of its location and it's peculiar shape, as we'll as its size and the iact that 1t IS owned by an individual holds an unique position in the geographical history of the world.
 The island referred to IS the Calf of Man, and W. L. D. Cary of 1926 Indiana Avenue, Is the owner.
 The Calf of Man lies at the southern extremity of the Isle of Man, In the Irish sea. The two are separated only by a narrow chanel. through which. the tide rushes with terrible rapldity and it's pass age is considered extremely hazardous The Calf of Man contains about 800 acres, and it's shores are rocky and pre- cipltous and of great danger to mariners. 1t gets it's name from its peculiar forma- ton which resembles to marked degree calf in d recumbent posture. This like ness is especially noticeable during clear weather when the sea is calm and the two gleaming lighthouses seem to be the animals eyes. Many people settled on the island and these settlers were the ances- tors of w. l.. D. Cary, to whom the is- land has reverted through inheritance.

NOT JEWELS, BUT JEWS.
Latter, Says Dr. Peters, Made the Dis covery of America Possible.

Baltimore Sun.
 Not Isabella's jewels, but the money and the brains of the Jews made possible Columbus voyage" said Rev. Madison c. Peters in his lecture on What the Jew Has, Done for the World" last Aven- ing at the Baptist Tabernacle. St. Paul Street and North Avenue. Speaking of the part the Spanish and Portugese Jews played in the discovery of America, he said: ''The great majority of Americans, Jews and non-Jews, are but little ac- quainted with the part the Jews played Tn the discovery of the United States. With the same hand and the same pen and on the same day on which Ferdi- nand and Isabella signed that infamous edict which drove more than 100000 Jews from the land of their birth because they declined to have Christianity forced upon them they also signed articles of agree ment that authorized Columbus to go forth in search of another world.
 Dr. kayserling, of Budapest, for yeas the acknowledged master of Spanish Jewish history, has made a thorough search of the Spanish archives and re- cords. including those of the inquistion, which had never before been open to such Jewish investigator The result is his valuable work entitled 'Christophar Columbus and the Participation of the Jews in the Spanish and Portugese Dis coveries.'

MISS LIZZIE SNEkThING
Dr. Hartman, tho Famous 6yaaaco!o- gist and lnvento Of Pe-ru-na W- tors to Treat Women Free During tho Summer Months.

America is the land of nervous women. The great majority of nervous women are so because they are suffering from some form of female disease By far the great est number of female troubles are caused by catarrh.
 Women afflicted with pelvic catarrh de- spair of recovery. Female trouble Is so common, so prevalent, that they accept It as almost inevitable. The greatest ob- stacle in the way of recovery Is that they do not understand that 1t is catarrh which Is the source of their illness. In female complaint. ninety-nine cases out of one hundred are nothing but catarrh. Peruna cures catarrh wherever located.
 The following letter was recently re- ceived;

A New Supervisor.

It is stated that last week the re- signation of Mir. Emerson Gee as a supervisor of Santa Cruz county was forwarded to the county board. Under the law it becomes the duty of the remaining members of the board and the probate judge to elect a successor, This will be done at the regular meeting of the board next Monday.
 It is reported that those having the selection of new supervisor called upon the democratic county committee to recommend a success sor to Mir. Gee, and a meeting of that body was held for that pur- pose last Saturday morning. Upon the first point it was agreed that as Mr. Gee was resident of one of the county precincts, his successor would likewise come from the country. Then Mir. NJ. M Trickey of Washington precinct, was made the unanimous choice of the com mittee and recommended to the governing body, which will in all probability ratify the choice next Monday.

The Baseball Game at cusymss.

It tlldID piOiicihH gum ii"c ''Ni decided at last, and the cup re- mains in Guaymas. It was a glor- ious game and a glorious victory for the Guaymas boys. who, by their excellent playing, deserved to win the cup.
 The day was beautiful, glorious Easter Sunday, and a happy ex- pression could be seen on every face. From 9 o'clock people began to flock to the railroad station to witness the arrival of the Colorado boys and at 9:30 the station was crowded with happy and good natured people The band struck up fayorite air, and the train rolled into the station. From the Pullman car could be heard strange and weird sounds, as of an Indian war-dance, which sounded to the untrained ear something like this:
 "Oskey, wow-wow,
 Huskey wi, vii
 La Colorado,
 Wow, WOW, wow.p
 The Guaymas boys were upon them in moment and gave them the same hearty reception, showing the ties of friendship between both teams. The boys were then taken to the street cars, and an enthus- iastic procession rode through the streets of the city.
 At 1 o'clock people began to ap- pear on the ball grounds, and at 1:30 Umpire Felipe Seldner called game" Guaymas went first to the bat and made three runs, and La Colorado came in and tied the score. In the second Guaymas made 6 and La Colorado 1, and from here on Guaymas showed it's as ball-tossers and rolled up a score of 29 against s. But the La Colorado boys, who are thorough gentlemen, as they have always shown it, received their defeat in jolly, good style.
 Charlie Cafiez pitched excellent ball and had fine support The star plays of the game were beau tiful double play by < Palma who after running for the ball q good ! caught it and threw from left field to first, putting man out who was running to second; and double play by Luis Yberri to first base Jesus Palma.
 La Colorado was greatly in need | of pitcher, but the support was good.
 Taking the game from every standpoint, it was the finest and | most agreeable game of the league. The following is the score of runs by innings
