JAPs STUDY EXPLOSIVES.
Results Of Their knowledge Of Chem
istry Shown in War with
Russians.

Probably no eastern nation is
more strongly represented than
are the Japanese in the English
annals of science and more partic-
ularly in literature on chemistry.
They possess an undoubtedly
strong faculty for original re
search and they combine this fac
tor with a sharp-sightedness as
to the possibility of practical ap-
plicatiOn of the fruits of research.
The Japanese chemist, in fact,
unites the power of originality of
the English chemist and the prac-
teal intuition of the German. AT
the University of Toxic practical
study is much favored and splen-
did facilities for work are pro-
vided in the laboratories and
workshops.
There are several distinguished
Japanese chemists who are fell
lows of the English Chemical socl-
ETY. and who were elected to the
fellowship on account of the ex-
cellence of their contributions to
original science. Many elaborate
papers involving long and patient
laboratory Investigations are
printed in full in the transactions
of the society, The Japanese
chemists discuss with a freedom
which astOnishes the western
chemists all the modern abstruse
theories bearing upon anatomic
theory, the constitution of mat
ter, the theory of dissertation, and
so forth. They write powerful dis
sertatiOns on the views already
advanced by such esteemed think
ers as Ostwaid, Arrhenius, Kelvia,
Thomson, Lodge, CroOkes and
Ramyas, and have offered valua.
BILE criticisms on the methods of
systematizing and compiling
atomic weights adopted by west
arm chemists.
Chemistry, of course, is a pow
erful weapon in wal and there can
be little doubt that among other
things which have so far contrib
uted to japanese successes is a
sound knowledge of explosives,
their composition, action and be-
hayior under a variety of cOndi.
tons. When there is no longer
any need for the implements Of
battle, and may that soon be, the
same subtle insight which is so re.
markable a feature of the Japan.
csc intellect may turn with equa'
success to the application of sci
ence to peace pursuits.

COFFEE AS A FUMIGANT.

FOR THE AMERICAN INDIAN
Words Of Praise Uttered by william
Penn IN Hi First Descrip-
ton Of Him.

William Penn, when he came to
America, gave a most interesting
account of the Indians whom We
met. ''They are generally tall,
straight, well built and of singu-
lar proportion" he said. "They
tread strong and clever, and most
" walk with a lofty chin. OF com
plexiOn black, but by design, as
the gypsies in England. They
grease themselves with bears fat,
clarified, and, using no defense
against sun and weather, their
skins must needs be swarthy.
Their eye is little and black. The
thick lip and fat nose, so frequent
with the east Indians and blacks,
are not common to them, for l
have seen as comedy, European
like faces among them of both
sexes as on your side the sea, and
truly an Italian complexion hath
not much more of the white, and
Ehe noses of several of them have
be much of the Roman.
"Their languages lofty, yet mar
row; but, like the Hebrew in sig.
nihoatiOn, full. Like shorthand in
writing, one word serveth in the
place of three, and the rest are
supplied in the understanding of
the bearer; imperfect in their
lenses, wanting in their moods,
participates, adyerbs, cOnjunc-
lions, interjections. / have made
Il my business to understand it,
that | might not want an interpre,
ter on any occasion; and l must
say that l know not a language
spoken in Europe that has words
of more sweetness or greatness in
accent and emphasis than theirs.
"In Iiberality they excel. Moth
ing is too good for their friend.
Give them a fine gun. coat or other
thing, it may pass 20 hands before
it sticks. Light of heart, strong
affections, but soon spent. The

WHEN MEN HAND OUT TIPS
Nothing Is Too Good When They Are
with Ladies at the
Table.

Boarding at one of the hotels is
a woman who takes an interest in
everything. Coming down to
breakfast one morning, relates
the Chicago Inter Ocean, she dis
covered that her waiter had been
replaced by a new man. She asked
for the old man.
"He's been transferred to the
buffet" was the reply.
Seeing the old waiter in the cor
ridor the next week she sent for
him.
II suppose you like being down
stairs much better" she said, "be-
cause you have men to wait upon"
81 don't like it at all, ma'am," he
replied.
"You don't like it! How can
that be, with none but the tip.giy.
ing sex to server"
OTIS this way, ma'am," says he.
"DOwn there the men don't give
tips Of any amount, sometimes moi
as much as women do"
"But you told me some months
ago that they do" interrupted this
sociological investigator.
"That's when they are with la
dies. Then nothin's too good, ant
they are ready to pay handsomel!
for the best possible service
When they're alone most of ZEN
simply wants something good t.
eat without unnecessary frills
Some meals they tip moderated,
and some they don't"

SETTING THE CLOCK AHEAD
A S0nseless Practice That Is Met
With in a Great Many
Homes.

1t is a common thing to find the
clocks in nine out of ten house
holds either Is minutes or half an
hour fast, and should you happen
to be in a hurry or mention the
fact that you have to be going,
you are at once treasured by the
fact that you have no cause to
hurry, as the clock is so much
ahead of the time, says the New
York News.
Has it ever occurred to you
why clocks are usually put ahead.
Some physicians have said that it
is due to laziness, for it is such a
satisfaction to the lazy man to
find when he has to get up al seven
in the morning and strains his
half-clOsed eyes to look at the
clock, that it is a little fast.
Said a matchmaker when asked
about the subject:
eyes, it is a peculiar thing with
most people to put their clocks
fast, and while there may be some
satisfaction in it when it comes to
doing a little longer, there is real.
ly no advantage in it, for when
you wake up, say, at six and glance
at the clock and it registers six
the fact remains that it is a half
hour fast. While this may make
you feel easier, knowing that You
still have 30 minutes to doze,
confess don't see much advan-
tage in it.
"Why not have the clock right!
1t is the same thing in the end.
Suppose railroads were to put
this into practice, how many
trains do you think people would
miss thereby? This putting clocks
fast is really only a pleasant form
Of deception which people like tt
practice on themselves, but it does
more harm than good"

HoRsEs TURN AMPHIsIoUs
Group in Australia Dive 70 River
Bottom for s~uceulent Weeds
TO Eat.

~ -
While on a cattle station in
western Australia, Henry Taun.
ton had an opportunity of seeinga
remarkable instance of the way in
which animals can adapt them
selves to their surroundings, says
a writer in Australind.
"On the upper reaches of the
river there was a large pool, JUST
fOrdable at most times, but in a
dry season very low" he says.
among the horses making their
run in the vicinity of this pool, an
old mare and a number of fOals
and yearlings used to come down
every day in the long, dry summer,
when the heritage was scant and
scOrched into dryness. They
waded into the pool until the
water nearly reached their heads,
and stood there for hours, diving
to the bottom for a mOuthful of
succulent weeds, which they
chewed at leisure with their drip
ping heads raised above the wa
ter.
''The first time | witnessed this
strange sight was during a dry
season, when / was riding with
the Overseer in search of some
strayed stock. As we approached
the pool my companion bade me
keep quiet if I desired to see some
thing well worth looking at. AS
we rode quietly up to the pool /
saw a group of horses standing in
the water and disappearing from
time to time as they ducked their
heads below the surface. My won
der was soon at an end, when / saw
one of their heads suddenly come
out with a mouthful Of dripping
weeds. No sooner was this mouth
full disposed of than the head dis
appeared in search of another.
"The Oyerseer told me that dur
ing a long drought some five or six
years previous, when hardly a
yestige of feed was left on the run,
and bush fires had laid bare the
sand plains, the old mare had dis
covered that there was plenty Of
luscious feed at the bottom of
pools, which could be procured by
diving for it; and, having once put
her discovery into practice, she
continued to do out of preference
what she had been driven to do by
necessity.
"The several generations of
foals which she had reared had all
followed her example, although
none of the full grown horses had
Joined the am%phibious group.
Here, then, seemed to be a new
variety of horse in evolution,
which, if left undisturbed, might
breed and separate from the run,
perhaps to survive through
droughts severe enough to exter-
inmate all others"
