LIKE TO Be YOUNG AGAIN?
Yes: Well, Here Is One Man Who
Would Rather Be Excused.

Would Rather BE Excused.
1--WE all say that we'd like to be
young again, but l doubt if we really
mean it," says Harvey Sutherland in
Ainslee's. "Wed like to have as good
health as we had when we cast our
first vote, and we'd like it if we didn't
have to visit the dentist SO often and
so extensively. But if it came to the
point that the genii bounced out be-
fore us and sulkily growled: What is
your wish? l will obey, l and the 9th
er slaves Of the lamp | fancy we
should study quite awhile, with many
'Why-ah, let me see nOw,' before
we plucked up the courage to blurt
out, Make me twenty -One again.
Because, you know, you haven't
any too much sense now, with all
your experience of the world, and If
you were twenty-one again it would
have to be in mind as well as in body.
The mind is what the body is. 1t
seems a terrible price to pay for a
new set of teeth and an undiscriminat-
ing appetite. What? To walk again

again how many kinds of a fool and
a failure one can be, and not half try
either; to have to take over again all
those terms of old Professor Expert

may if you like. Even if could start
anew with what have learned Of
life, which would come far short Of
what should really need, it seems to
me that it would be bore to have to
sit through the performance again.
I suppose if ever there was success
full man, lucky man, it was Martin
Luther and yet when the electress
of Brandenburg wished him forty
more birthdays he told her he would
sooner give up every hope Of heaven
he had than spend forty years more on
earth. To be sure, he would have had
to spend them in Germany, but that's
a detail"

Smoke Looks Different Here.

"Look across the flats there" said
an occupant of one of the high build
ings in the central part of the city,
"and notice how smoke pours out of
the chimneys of the factories little and
big. I tell you, the scene from one of
these windows not only discloses the
growth Of the city in territory, but
it shows how busy the industries of
Columbus are. Several years ago a
look from this high point was quite
dismal. There were very few chin
neys throwing out smoke. There has
been quite a change "-Columbu Dis

Japan Becoming ExcsedinglyPrudlsh

Japan Becoming Observation-Disclosures
In recent communication to
the Argoaaut from Japan, Q e
Lorrimer says: "Chuserji is the
fashionable summer resort OF Japan,
with its famous sulphur baths.
The water is ss white az milk, aud
quite soft, like molasses, curing
every ill that human skin is heir
to. The quaintest sight OF the
place is the big bath house, where
the little brown mep, women, and
babies paddle about together,
absolutely az natural. The tiny
babies have their dinner in the
bath, their msmmas cat theirs from
the edge of the inclosure, or they
come out perfectly nude and I'M
embarrassed. 1t is all 80 simple and
natural, and without ,vil notice,
that one qnite forgets to be shock
ed. But the Japanese authorities,
the policemen, since they gave up
their national summer costumes of
no clothes, and attached their
pompous little swords to their pom
pous little uniforms, have become
exceedingly prudish, 30 that the
old and innocent customs are fast
being done away with. Even the
pictures and statues are being
covered up, and multitude Of
ideas suggested to the lover class
