Early Rising.

Although it may be of great benefit
to debilitated people to go to bed early,
there are few things more hurtful
than remaining in it too long. Getting
up early imparts vigor which Moth
ing else can give. Those who are not
very weak, indeed, and sleep well.
should rise soon after waking in the
morning. At first this will seem too
early for the debilitated person, who
does not feed entirely rested, but ris-
ing early will gradually have the eff
feet Of prolonging sleep on the sue
ceeding night Lying in bed late is
hurtful, not only because of too much
relaxation, but also by thus occupy

ercise is most beneficial

WOMEN WORKERS IN JAPAN.
Have Been Accustomed to severe
Manual Labor at Very
Small Pay.

In Japan there is no bar erected
against the employment Of women in
any industry whatever, provided they
quired. The usual wages the girl OF
that country receives is three pence
day-about six cents For that
miserable stipend girls not only labor
hard during working hours, but per-
NIT themselves to be wholly isolated
from the outer world, just as II they
were in prison, hospital or nun
merry. Thus they are entirely In the
power of their employers, the least
scrupulous of whom take an unfair ad-
vantage Of their helplessness. Thanks
to the initiative of the press and to
the high spirit of few wealthy firms.
a strong and lurid light has been
thrown upon those dark places OF
Japan, and redress is already in sight.
The Manchester of the mikado's realm
is Osaka, and it was the terrible state
of things in vogue in the mills and
works of that city that first attracted
attention. The slaves of the southern
states of North America had better
time than some of the wretched girls
of Osaka, the product of whose labor
was thrown upon European markets
| at nominal prices. Happily, the guild
of weavers have now set to work to
| better the lot of these helots, and its
efforts are being reinforced by gov
ernment employees.
Curiously enough, in the higher call
| ings and professions that require skill
manual labor, there was hardly any
field for woman's activity. Thus, in
none of the ministries of government
Offices was woman to be found as
civil servant The respectable firms
of merchants likewise rapidly exclud-
ed members of the fair sex, refusing
to employ them as saleswomen; only
in a few cheap bazars where the work
was very fatiguing and the pay utter
ly inadequate were women to be seen
behind the counter. But here, too,
benef1cent change is now being
made The firm of Mitsui, the weav
ers, for example-one of the wealthiest
in Japan-has just decided to take on
girls.
For considerable time past women
have been engaged at railway stations,
especially in dealing with passenger
traffic. and now the Sanui line. which
had hitherto eliminated the female
element, has completely broken with
it's traditions and in future the pas
sengers by that company's line will
be looked after by women conductors.
and, perhaps, women controllers as
WELL The crown prince of Japan takes
a keen interest in this movement,
which aims at making life miserable
to the future female subjects, and he
mas begun by setting an excellent cx-
ample. He has married but one wife
and has allowed it to be generally
understood that he is and intends to
remain a monogamist to the end Of

VACATION AMUSEMENT.
Haymaker's Picnic . New Form o1
Festivity for the Country
Outing.

For the girls and boys spending
their summer vacation in the real
counrty," there is no form of amuse-
ment more enjoyable than hay
makers picnic. The big hay wagon
is pressed into service, the girls max
ing it very attractive with festoons OF
wild flowers and green leaves. Moth
ing but the seating portion OF the We
hicle is left undecorated. II the horses
or oxen are sufficiently gentle they,
too, can be decked out in floral f1nery.
In this festive looking cart the girls
and boys, arrayed In genuine country
fashion, are conveyed to the bayfield,.
The girls go in for sunbonnets and
gingham aprons, the boys wearing
broad-brimmed straw headgear, sim
liar to that adopted by the real farm
ers, and with overalls tucked into
high boots, as the haymaker is always
pictured.
Once in the field the frolic begins,
with which is combined some real help
to the farmer, as the heaped up hay
wagon soon shows. The luncheon.
which has come later in less fantas-
tic wagon than the haymakers' char
lot, is eaten in some shady spot, the
seats being fragrant mounds Of hay.
No table Is spread, the sandwiches and
fruit being eaten from the hands. A
| big can of cool milk or buttermilk Is
the only beverage, and this Is served
| in tin dipper by an obliging farm
hand. When it comes time for home
going all ride on top of the load, which
is not as easy feat as it looks. for
the hay has curious way of slipping
from under, suggesting a trip on a
camePs back more than the ease Of a
cushioned seat.
If at night dance in the barn can
follow the picnic, the day will be COM
plete. For this lanterns furnish the
lights, those which the farmers carry
when they go to do the chores being
preferred to the pretty Japanese ones,
when the inflammable nature of the
surroundings is considered. The stalls
of the horses should be decorated with
flowers. The orchestra for the occa-
sion, to be quite in keeping, need be
only an accordion, a fiddle or a
mouth organ, played by some young
countryman who has done SO before
at dances of the real haymakers.

was the Burlington. ''But," said the
governor, "they did not take me up
and presume they did'not want the
