Up.to- Date Japanese Countess.

A new woman" in her own coun-
try is the Countess Hayashi, who adj
vocates ''jiu- jitsu," the Japanese sys-
tenn Of physical training for women
as we'll as men.
1t is to this method of Strengthening
the muscles that the men of Japan are
indebted for their wonderful, wiry,
strength. Upon it they are depending
for the endurance which they believe
will enable them in the present war to
conquer their powerful Russian enc
mics.
The "jiu-j itsu' was until recently a
secret system of physical training,
taught only to the nobility. Now men
of all ranks share It's benefits. Countess
Hayashi contends that women also
should receive the training. The count
ess Is a very modern woman in her
ideas. With the spirit of progress so
evident in Japan she has adopted Eu-
ropean dress. s.9z

The Birds Breakfast-Table.

There is a suggestion for all girls and:
boys who live where snow falls in "The
Birds Breakfast table" in the February
st. Nicholas, telling how many Hudson
River valley birds are fed winter after
winter at Cherrycroft. Cherrycroft is
the home of Amelia E. Barr, the writer
and stands on the banks of the Hud-
son near Cornwall. The hospitality of
Cherrycroft is so widely know among
it's bird neighbors near and far that
every fall Mrs. Barr lays in grain, corn,
and hickory-nuts by the bushel to
provide for her feathered guests.
Among the interesting incidents of
this pretty hospitality Isabel Gordon
Curtis recourts the appreciation of
Cherrycroft's generosity shown during
the blizzard of 1888.

asking only high school certificate on
these studies. He also rules that when
teacher fails to pass, credit shall be
given for the subjects in which pass

the subjects are successfully passed

cuted for a longer time or that more
men and more apparatus were en-
ployed."
1t seems very improbable that
there will be any general improve
ment in the fishery until new methods
of conducting it are adopted and shall
have continued for a number of years.
Uniform protective laws are greatly
needed, and without them the work
of the Commission in lobster cultiva-
ton will have but little effect at this
stage of the decline.
From data collected by the Com
mission it appears that there are at
this time about 213,00 men engaged
in the fishing industry in this coun-
try, of whom $4,000 are fishermen,
The aggregate capital invested is
$76,850,000, of which about one-cniId
represents vessels and boats of all
ing. Squarely in the midle of the
sorts and apparatus of capture. The
value of the catch at first hands is
estimated at $49,882,000, of which the
ocean and coast fisheries represent
$44,964,000.
The ocean fisheries of New Eng
land, which have always been the
most important of their class, have
been in satisfactory condition. At
the two great ports Of Gloucester and
Boston the quantity of fish landed by
American fishing vessels in 1902 was
about 168,O00,000 pounds, valued at
$4,380,00O, an increase of 100000
pounds and $4,000, as compared
with 1901.
The mackerel catch has never since
reached the proportions attained in
the years preceding 1887 although the
report shows it to be now greatly in
excess Of the product during the first
half of the present period of unprec-
edented scarcity. Commissioner Bow
ers says the tendency Of late has been
upward, and it is believed that in
comparatively few year the mackerel
will have again becom, abundant on
our shores. lion
Of the culture Of cod in the Atlantic
coast the report says the Commits
sion's expectations have been more
than realized. Practical results of
an unmistakable character were first
manifested in 1889, since which time
a very lucrative shore cod fishery has
been kept up on grounds that were
entirely depleted or that had never
contained cod in noteworthy numbers
in the memory Of the oldest inhabi-
tants."
During the last year the Commits.
sion has distributed in New England
streams and lakes great numbers of
land locked salmon, cod, Holsters,
crapple, fatfsh, sea bass, mackerel,
soup and tautOg. The cultivation Of
the last four named had not been pre-
viously carried on to any considerable
extent. Experiments with them, as
well as with the land locked salmon,
will therefore be closely watched dur
ing the next few years.
