POPULAR RUSSIAN DRINK
Vodka, the Euscovite FirswaAaE, Is
Nearly Three-ouArters
Pure Alcohol

Vodka is the popular Russian drink.
1t is to the Muscovite what nrewater
used to be to the aboriginal Indian. It
provides him with courage when all
else fails and he will fight to the death
for it. There are eight vodka distil-
leries in the new town Of Harbin, the
center of Russian industrial and COM
mercial development in Manchuria. and
the inhabitants drink vast quantities
of the product. Forty-six thousand
men are In Harbin. At least 10000
drink vodka. The daily consumption
is 1900 gallons, or about three-ffths OF
pint each. That would make for ev-
cry man about five good drams-noth-
ing at all but for the fact that vodka
is about 145 proof; that is, in each 100
gallons there are TN gallons OF pure
alcohol. Vodka IS as strong as schli-
vowitz, three drinks OF which will
knock a man silly. For comparison.
most Of tho American whisky sold over
the bar is from 80 to 90 proof.

HAD A PROPHETIC VISION.
Russian Writer Foretold Disasters
That Recently Befsll HiG Coun-
try's Navy at Port Arthur. i,

One Of the most remarkable instances
Of political prophecy that have come
to light in recent years is reported by
DR.. f. ]. Dillon. A Russian named Lew
itod published recently at Port Arthur
a pamphlet urging that the Russians
do everything possible to gain time and
that they withdraw the feet as an In
eumberance and depend upon their nu-
merical superiority on land. With great
elearness he pointed out the periia oe
meeting japan on the sea.
The Yellow BOsporus" (the Straits
Of Corea) "is a trap into which tho
Japs, at Bngland's instigation are try
ing to enice us So LONG as we steer
clear Of a sea night" he continues. the
command Of the sea and the Anglo
Japanese alliance are not worth q
sucked egg. II we resolve to keep out
of an engagement on water and If we
are further prepared to do without our
feet, not only by refusing to increase
it but by getting rid Of It wholly and
without reserve. then the japanese doc
trlne. Asia for Asiatics, becomes mean
ingless and we have free field on
which to continue our work OF culture
in that part OF the GLOBE"

Russian Naval .Aotinna

Russia can point to only two Oc-
,casions in modern history when her
ships were Ia action. One was the de-
structiQp of the Turkish squadron a.
SinOpe, when the number of vessels
was 'eaqal, though the latter were
greatly inferior in size and armament.
The other occasion was in the Crimean
war, when the Black sea fleet did Rus
sia excellent service, but hardly OF the
kind usually demanded Of the ships OF
an imperial navy, when she sank her
finest ships like coal barges to block
the entrance to Sebastopol.

THROW PRAYERS AT IDOL
II They Stick the Petitions OF the
Japanese Worahiper Wtu Be
Answered.

One OF the most curious phases of
idolatry exists in Japan, where on the
sacred road to Nikko Is located an idol
about which centers one OF the most
peculiar worshlps in the world. Upon
the surface OF the statue are seen little
pieces of what appears to be dried paper
If you stand by the idol for awhile and
walt for worshiper to come along. YOU
will see what these bits Of paper are.
The devotee halts In front Of the image.
then scribbles a prayer on bit of pa
per The wad he then chaws Up into q
ball and hurls at the god. Ifit hits the
face and sticks the. prayer Is sure toll,
answered, and she pious pilgrim goes
away happy. Il the bail sticks to some
portion Ct thu body the omen Is rot
quite so propitious and il it falls to the
ground there is absolutely no hope.
Such a mode, Of prayer is even more
curious than the praying wheels Of the
Buddhists, who>set the wheel revolving
and reel OFF prayers by machinery. As
John L. StoGdard, the lecturer. says:
"One sees. OF course. uumberless strange
rites connected with religion in travel
ing about the world, but Japan is the only
land I hsve ever visited where deitics
serve as targets for masticatGd prayers.

II is very necessary to possess sufI-
'ctsnt development Of the muscles of the
legs, writes II. Irving Hancock. in ST.
Nicholas. One Of the best exercises
looking to this end is accomplished as
follows: Stand erect, with feet spreaa
apart and arms hanging Imply at the
sides. Bend downward to a squatt,v =
position. allowing the hands to touch
the floor, If possible. The souattirg
position should be one in which the
student as nearly as possible sits upon
the heels, but head and trunk should
be erect or nearly so. When this posi-
ton has been taken. bring the arms
up horizontally forward, clasping the
hands for moment only Next throw
the arms as far backward as possible.
and Us nearly horizontal an you can.
performing this last coyement slowly.
Now slowly resume The hand-clasp.
and, keeping the hands In this position.
return gradually to standing position.
Three of these exercises are enough for
the e'Ieginner. and in Japan the veteran
jiu-jitsu rarely performs more than ten
sof them.
