Rice for Jananese Soldiers.

Rice and dried fish is the uniform
food of the japanese army in cam
paigning times This is the way in
which the rice is cooked: It is boiled
until quite thick and glutinous. Next
it is placed on a ceramic slab, rolled
out, and cut into squares. The squares
are then placed in the sun to dry and
often turned. When hard as sea bis
cult and greatly reduced in weight,
they can be stored.
A certain number are allowed each
day t. the soldier. All he has to 10
is to break up a square in boiling
water anu to add the dried fish. In a
few minutes he has what seems to
him a delicious thick soup. If ce
cannot procure boiling water, he sim
ply cats his rice dry. In the fruit sea-
son he substitutes fruit, when he can
obtain it, for the fish.-Chicago Tri-

Ancient Egyptian Plants.

The oldest herbarium in the world
is in the Psychologist Museum Tt
Cairo, and consists of an inconspicu-
Gus collection of dried portions of
plants. These portions of plants and
flowers were taken from wreaths and
garlands in the collins with mummies,
where they were placed by the ancient
Egyptians as death offerings, and
from edible plants which were set in
earthen vessels on the floor of the
sepulchre as the furniture of the last
resting place of their beloved ones.
Many Of these floral remains ara
so we'll preserved that, after being
treated with warm water, they can
be handled like modern herbarium
specimens. The colors, too, are pre-
served in a remarkable way. The
most important matter in connection
with these plants is their age.

Trolley Ferry in Missouri.

A ferry is plying across the Mis-
souri, river, short distance north of
st. Joseph, which is described as
something unique. 1t is not run by
wind, steam or electricity, but solely
by the force of the rivers current.
Its proprfetors call it trolley fer
~" A steel cable is passed across
the stream over the boat This cable
passes through two stationary pulleys
on the deck. By means of these pull
leys and the cable the boat is held
so that the current of the river
strikes it at an angle of about As de-
grees, and in this sideways" fashion
the current forces it across the chan
mel. 1t carries 100 tons of cargo over
in four minutes. There are no fuel
bills to meet, no engines to keep in
repair, and no engineers to pay. and
as the boat is literally patronized by
farmers, truck gardeners and poultry
breeders living near Wathena, on the
Kansas side of the river it is bring
ing in large dividends for its owners.

Catarrh of the Stomach is Generally
Called Notwithstanding
to Produce Artificial Diges-
ton is Generally Taken.
Hence, Pepsin, Pancreatin and a Host
of0ther Digestive Remedies
Has Been Invented,
These Remedies Do Not Reach the
Seat of the Difficulty, Which
is Really Catarrh.

Tx. U. S. Senator NJ. c. Butler from
A. South Carolina was Senator from that
State for two terms. In a recent letter to
The Peruna Medicine Co., from Washing
ton, ID. c., says:
~ can 4ecOnamt end Pe41t4ld for dys-
pepsiG and stomach trouble have
been q,sing yonr medicine for a short
period and Ieet Verymuch reLieUed.
10 is indeed a lUOndeTft5 medicine
besides a good tonic. I'M. @. BWAer.
The only rational way to cure dyspepsia
is to remove the catarrh. Peruna cures
catarrh. Peruna does not produce artl,
fetal digestion. 1t cures catarrh and
leaves the stomach to perform digestion
in a natural way. This is vastly better
and safer than resorting to artificial meth
DDS or narcotics.
Peruna has cured more cases Of dyspep-
STA than all other remedies combined,
simply because it cures catarrh wherever
located If catarrh is located in the head,
Peruna cures it, If catarrh has fastened it.
self in the throat or bronchial tubes,
Peruna cures it, When catarrh becomes
settled in the stomach, Peruna cures it,
as well in this location as in any other.
Peruna is not simply a remedy for
dyspepsia Perunia is a catarrh remedy.
Peruna cures dyspepsia because it is gen
orally dependent upon catarrh.

Eood Of the Chinese.

"The food of the Chinese consists
principally of rice and fish" That
statement has appeared in nearly
every. school geography or history
that has been published since the
food. Its all folderol and flap
doodle" says a concessionaire from
the interior CT the great empire. The
streams were fshed out ages ago, and
you seldom find fish in the interior.
On the coast yes. Much fish is eaten.
But the main food of the Chinese is
pork and chickens. Mutton and beef
are rare. Less rice is eaten than you
would imagine but there is an abun
dance Of palatable vegetables, ana
you find no difficulty in making out
a good dinner"

London, Feb. 6.-The statement is
published here that the draft of the
treaty which Japan originally submit

the siyss of which provided for the mu-
fNs! TeeeSnition of the integrity and
iFscessAdence of China and Korea. The
Es>cossd recognized Japan's right to ad-
wise Korea on finances and general ad-

Japan was entitled to send troops to

GOT A LINE ON BELL
The Mailbag Robber Who Eluded U.
S. harshals at Philadelphia.

Denver, Colo. Feb. 5.-An officer of
the postai service left here today for
Ojo Caliente, New Mexico. to run down
a report that Albert E. Bell, the self
confessed mail bag robber and forger,
was -ecuperat:nS his health at afesort
in that neighborhCod.
Bell was arrested here several
months ago, while occupying quarters
in a local hospital and when ne had
recovered his strength started with two
United States mGrshals for Philadel-
pha to answer to charge of stealing
a mail bag at the Union depot there.
AS the train was approaching that city,
Bell eluded the guards and escaped and
has since been at large.
At different times he has been report
ed to be located at various places in
this country, and Europe. It is said
that Bell was located in New Mexico
through the medium of a confiscated
cipher message, sent from Sharon,
Kansas, to Mrs. Eta Sharp, at Omaha,
saying that her mother was ill. Mrs.
Sharp is the reputed wife of Bell and
was with hiTl in Denver. when he was
arrested. When the message was de-
ciphered. it read Meet me at DO
Caliente, n. NJ. Am very sick" The
authorities Immediately concluded that
the sender was Bell himself.

The dispatches this morning from all
points are more pessimistic. The Tien-
Tsin correspondent of the Standard re-
ports that the railway authorities are
still bringing all the rolling stock in
side of the Great Wall, owing to the
uncertainty of Russian movements. and
the Russians have prohibited the Ja-
panese from travelling on the railway.
The correspondent at Toxic of the
Daily Mail says no hears that the Rus
SIAN fleet at VladVostock is preparing
to sail.
There is renewed activity at Car
diff owing to the demand for coal. The
admiralty agents today received in
structions TO secure the prompt loading
