Letters are carried more cheaply
in Japan than in any other country
in the world. The cost is 2 sen, or
about seven-tenths of a penny. The
mail is carried over mountains. There
are few railroads, so it is carried in

The milkweed down makes pretty

they crack open. Before the down
is dry, remove it from the cone in
the pod and put it into bag made

be shaped TO hang over a chair back
to form a soft rest, or it may be in
the shape of an ornamental sofa
cushion. When the bag is a little
more than half full, sew it up and
hang it over a line in the hot air; 1t
will dry and the down will fill the
bag. The cushion will be light and
dainty.

NEGRO LEAGUE
IS IN SESSION

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. Aug. ST.
The National Negro business league
began its fifth annual session in this
city today with the largest attend

OF the league from all parts of the
country, representing among them
the wealth, industry and intellect of
the negro race in America, 1t was
strictly a gathering of business men
who believe that the elevation of
their race is to come through hard
work along industrial lines rather
than through political channels or
higher education.

Why does the man who is suffering

he is told that there is health and

Why does the business man stand

more money one steals the more po-

But there is another class of po-

WASN'T AT PEACE
WITH THE WORLD

COLUMBUS, May 81. Especial. Am
brose johnson was asked during specia
services this week to arise in the colored
Baptist church in the suburb of Airing
ton and declare. in accordance with ono
of the strict rules of the church, that he
was at peace with all the world. Am
brose wasn't and refused to play the
hypocrite by saying so. even though the
minister, from the pulpit, commanded him
to do so.
Upon his refusal Ambrose was asked
to leave the church He refused to do
this, and the minister asked a number of
the brethren to volunteer to eject him.
There were half dozen volunteers. Am
brose at first held onto the back of the
new. and thu h drw knife it is said.
For this he was arrested on the charge of
displaying a deadly weapon and threaten
ing
In police court yesterday Ambrose said
lie only drew his knife to cut off the
hanging fngernails of his hands, which
had been shivered by the brethren at
tempting to break his hold on the pew
back. Police Judge Wildermuth dismissed
him.
And now the colored Baptist church at
Arlington is split in factions over the ques.
ton as to whether the rule in regard to
standing up and declaring peace with all
the world is supported by the scrip
lures.
