THE RED CROSS IN JAPAN.
A Powerful Influence in Modifying
Oriental Methods of Warfare.

One of the most important of the
institutions of modern Japan is the
Red Cross society, which has just eel
ebratedi tstwenty-ffth in
Tokyo. 1t was at first only a small as
ISOLATION organized to care forthe sick
and wounded soldiers at the time of
the Satsuma rebellion in 1877. Tt
was then known as the Hakuaisha
(society Of beneyolence); but in 1886,
when the union with the Geneva con-
vention wa effected, it assumed the
name cred Cross society" 1t has
always enjoyed the favor, patronage
and benefcence of the empress and
the nobility; Prince Komatzu, one of
the imperial family, has been for
many years honorary president, The
president is Count Sano one of the
privy councillors; the vice president
is Viscount Honabusa, also yice-min-
lister of the imperial household. The
Surgeon-general of the army is also
very active in its behalf. The men,
bers number 1886, the annual sub
scriptions amount to more than
100000 yen 1000, OOO), and the
property Of the society is valued at
more than 6,OOO,OO yen ($9,OOO,-
OOO). The Japanese Red Cross So
ciety has been a powerful influence in
modifying oriental methods of war
fare.

READING THE BIBLE.
You Can Finish the Sacred Book in
Less Than Eight Months.


You Can Finish the Sacred Book in
Less Than Eight Months.
'Did you ever figure out how long
Il would take to read the Bible?"
asked an obseryant man Of a New Or
leans Times Democrat writer. "Wel
you would be surprised to know in
what a short space Of time YOU could
Anish the last chapter Of the Holy
Book. OF course there are different
ways of reading. There are men and
women who read without knowing
@ything about what they read. They
are the class Of persons who neyerg get
lasting impressions from the book.
They may pick out one or two charae-
tiers, but when it comes to the various
phases Of the story they do not re-
laember it. This is due largely to a
short Of unconscious bias which the
tFeader shows for one character or an
other, or to an abnormal sympathy
for some Of the silent actors in the
plot. But there are persons on the
other hand who read critically, and
who a talk about the book they
have read when they come to lay it
sside. Readers ofthis latter kind will
be considered in the calculationwhich
follows. There are in the Old and
Kew T~estaments combined a total of
Sc books, containing 1889 chapters,
3l,173 verses, and a total of 773,629
verbs, approximately. The Old Tes-
lament contains 80 books, 929 chap
ters, 1924 verses, and approx
tmately 592, 239 words, while in the
New Testament there are ~ books,
$50 chapters, 1853 verses, and 49,
S53 words approximately. Adding
lthese together, we get the total given.
How long viii it take "a person 10 read
Che Old Testament, with its 92,939
words, or the 1928 words of the
New Testament? And how long to
Tead the 1862 words Of both? A
man can read understandingly 100
words every minute. By hurrying a
man can read 100 words, or probably
more. l viii assume that a man can
mad critically, that is carefully and
Understandings, at least 90 words a
l4iRute. That is slow reading, being
,Oaly 5000 words an hour. Suppose
lGman should devote an hour a day to
fhe Bible. At this rate he would read
100000 words in 30 days, or in a
months time. AT this rate he would
read the OLD Testament in less than
sN months, and he could finish the
New Testament in less than two
months. The whole Bible could be
read in less than eight months by de-
voting simply one hour tot each day.
Yet there are few persons outside Of
students who can claim to have read
Che Bible from lid to lid. Which ar
CUES that the age is strangely per
