Having q Picnic.

There is something particularly enjoyable
about going to Picnic. The very word
Pic Mic brings pleasant anticipations of q
good time. The idea of going out to the
woods and fields or down by some brook or
lake, with luncheon to be served on the
grass and under the trees, has peculiar
fascination. The fresh air and exercise
contribute to give hearty appetite to all
and everything at luncheon seems far
better than the finest course dinner that
a French chef ever served. Wooden dishes
supplant Dresden china, and paper boxes
silver trays, when the good things to
eat" are spread upon the ground.
Pic-Nics are never complete without the
sandwiches, sweet white bread with gen.
erous layer of meat between. Libby's
canned meats are ideal for Pic-Nics and
outings. The cans are so easily opened
md the contents so fresh and palatable
that no Picnic is a success without
Libby's Natural Flavor" Food Products.

JAPAN's NAVAL CADETS.
Mental, Physical and Financial ouaIh
fications Demanded.

Mental, Physical and Financial oualA
fications Demanded.
Japan's system Of selecting naval
cadets is altogether unlike the Ameri-
can system of appointment by Con-
gressmen. If Japanese boy wishes
! to become a naval cadet he must firs'
graduate from the public schools
Then he must pay his own expenses
at naval preparatory school. These
expenses are equivalent, in American
! money to about six dollars month.
Having graduated from the prepare
tory school he forthwith enters the
naval college, and from that time on
his expenses are borne by the govern
ment Any Japanese boy who has the
necessary mental, physical and finan-
cial qualifications can thus become a
naval cadet.
1t was a very proud moment for the
writer, you may pc sure, when he first
donned the uniform of the Kanda
School and became one of the four
hundred students there. The uniform

jacket with single row of brass but
tons, plain blue trousers, and naval
cap of English pattern.
Our arms were not calculated to
strike terror to even the most timid
heart, since they were nothing but
mock wooden guns. Yet we boys
must have fancied that the martial
spirit Of the old time sumari dwelt in
those harmless make-believe muskets,
for it would have been difficult indeed
to find a fiercer-looking lot of youthful
warriors than we were at drill.
What did We study? First of all
the Japanese and Chinese languages,
delving a little into the classics of
both. Then we were obliged to write
compositions in Japanese and Chinese,
and disliked the tasks just as heartily
as American boys do heir English and
Latin compositions. We were taught
English also, and composition in that
language were added to our tortudes.
arithmetic, algebra, a short course in
japanese history, a short course In
geography and free-hand drawing, in
GLIDING map-work-surely this was
enough for boys of thirteen or four
teen years of age! l feel sure that
all of my young American readers will
agree with me on this point. Element
airy military drill and instruction in
rowing were elective branches; but
there were few boys who did not take
them up.
Five days and half every week
were devoted to these studies. The
discipline was not unnecessarily strict,
and on the whole our life was even
!ollier than American boarding school
life. We were fun-loving lot of boys,
and many were the pranks We played
upon each other. Even our instruct
ors did not always escape. But "haz.
ing" as the term is understood in this
country, is unknown to Japanese stu.

HORTICULTURAL NOTES.

Huckleberry plants, or blue berries,
are not offered in nursery catalogues
for the reason that it is difficult to
secure young plants in quantity and
that they are difficult to transplant.
Work in the garden is very pleasant
in the spring, as the weather is then
cool and the ground not very dry and
hard. Ladies who make a speciality
of flowers, or early vegetables, will
find the out-of-door work very bene-
fetal. The children should each have
a little plot for their own use as a
means of enjoyment.
Orchards should be cultivated from
early spring to August 1, but they
should be so managed that every year
some green crop can be plowed under
to furnish humus and keep the soil
loose and fortified. In August or
chards can be sown to rye, or some
other crop than can be plowed under
the succeeding spring.

LEWIS ULTIMATE DESTINY.
Return to Palestine Likely to BE DS
Gradual Stages.

Israel Zangwill, writing in the
World To-Day, says pertinently; The
freer the Jew is left the more he tends
if not toward Christianity, toward
broader view of it and toward the ac-
ceptance of Christ In the apostonc
chain Of Hebrew prophets. Inc mou-
ern Jew is n prO-Christian, only TOO
eager to admire the ideals of what
ever nation he lives amid, only 100
uncritIcal. There can be little doubt
therefore. that were the Jew lert TO

tendon and free elbow room he would
in the course of few generations be
practically merged with his environ
ment
For this contamination, however
ChristendOm is too unchristian to wait.
1t requires three or four generations
after the first emancipation, and be-
fore these generations are up some
thing is sure to happen to throw the
Jew back upon himself. The Dreyfus
case is what Bacon calls an "ostensive
instance" But apart from such I'M
practicable particuarlties, it may be
prophesied generally that with such a
good "whipping boy" as the Jew ready
to the agita tors hand, no economic or
other crisis will pass in any country
without its Jews being called to ac-
count for it. 1t is a notorious device
of statecraft to divert attention from
internal evils to foreign affairs and
the Jews are a Quasi-fOreign body pro
vided at home in default of a better
cover. These outbreaks of anti-semit-
icism, these inclpient prosecutions will
always be answered by reactiOnary
rigidiscence in the Jewish ranks.
The road to Palestine is hard and
long. The Jew will probably make
many detour to his goal, and is most
likely to settle as a first step in some
neutral territory, less beset with pO-
litical and religious pitfalls, there to
reorganize his scattered forces, to re
learn the lessons of cooperation and
self-gOvernment, to readjust the bal
ance of the old world and the new and
to reconcile his conceptions with the
modern scientific vision of the universe
and with the new, historical perspect-
ives opened up to us by archaeology
Thus tempered and prepared and re
united, he will await the opportunity
of colonizing the holy Land with his
overlooking population and there re
inspired and resanctified by the fulfil
ment of his secular dream. he will
continue his word toward the creation
of model state, which. set on lions
hill, may be light to the people.

that which she wished to visit.
She found place where buses were
arriving and departing, and waited.
She heard many curious names, but
failed to understand much that the bus
men said. Every now and then the
man on the step of a bus would call
out, "NIoblotchl Moblotchr and she
