Those who carry on the next war will undoubtedly initiate the smart Japan ese in many things. Perhaps they will initiate them in the sanitary work of the medical corps. The Japanese med ieal officer with the army is a busy man. He is as much to the front of the army as to the rear. He is with the first screen of scouts, with his mi- .eroscope and chemicals, testing and la belling wells so the army to follow shall drink no contaminated water. When the scouts reach a town he im- mediateIy institutes a thorough exam ination of its sanitary condition, and if eontagion or infection is found he quarantines and places a guard around the dangerous district. Notices are posted, so the approaching column is warned, and no soldiers are billeted where danger exists. Microscopic blood tests are made in all fever cases, and meteorological experts, fully equipped, form part of the staff of every divisional headquarters. The medical officer also accompanies for aging parties, and with the commissa- riat officers samples the various food, fruits and vegetables sold by the na- tives along the line of march long be- fore the arrival of the army. If the food is tainted or the fruit everripe. or the water requires boiling, notice is posted to that effect, and such is the respect and discipline of every soldier from commanding officer to the file in the ranks that obedience to it's order is absolute. The medical officer is also found in camp, featuring the men on lsanitation and the hundred and cne de- tails of personal hygiene-how to cook,
 to eat, and when not to drink, to bathe,
 and even to the direction Of the pairing and cleansing of the finger nails to pre- vent danger from bacteria. Long be-
 fore the outbreak of hostilities he was with the advance agents of the army, testing provisions that were being col
 lected for troops that were to follow, land as consequence of these precau- Etions he is not now found treating thou
 sands of cases of intestinal diseases, diarrhoeas or dysenterles. contagion land levers that follow improper sub tsistenee and neglected sanitation.
 Good work. The Japanese are giving
 the world lessons in industry, prudence. Iskill and efficiency, If they are finally licked it will not be because they were mot ready to fight and didn't know how to fight.

CTS are also using 2 mixture ot corn meal and wheat flour For sweet cakes and their customers find the product very satisfactory. 4 loaf of bread made Of rye and corn meal costs much less than a loaf of rye bread. The differ enee in price is a matter of considerable importance to European laborers and artisans, whose wages are small conn pared with the earnings of Americans of the same type. The consumption of corn meal in Belgium is one-half bushel more per capita than in the Un- tied States. The Belgian pays fifteen cents for a five pound loaf of mixed rye and corn bread. For a five pound loaf of rye bread he pays twenty-five cents. In Berlin eight hundred bakeries make mixed bread. ., ...
 Perhaps we do not think enough of corn meal as food in this country. Ex- perts in such matters say We don't. But we grow so much that is good and cheap that we don't have to figure very closely in such matters.

A rANr.

Some business men know what kind |of employees they want and why they
 want them. A business concern in
 Sioux Falls, Iowa, advertised for "a |red-haired stenographer, one who does not wear long skirts or use perfume. !" Interviewed as to the reasons for i'm posing such conditions, the concern ex- plained that red-haired girls are more alert and efficient than others; that perfume is as objectionable in an office las tobacco; that long skirts swishing around in business hours are decidedly |out of place, and, above all, that it is useless to expect a girl to think of her employers interests when her mind is
 constantly on herself and her attrac- |tions.
 This is definite and Interesting, and ,quite encouraging to red-headed girls, If they need any encouragement. We hope the alert and efficient red-headed girl has modestly yet proudly taken
 her place in the office of that concern, and is minding her ps and as. And if
 we are permitted to hear the end of the story we shall probably hear that she chose the man in the office whom she wanted to marry and married the man of her choice. An alert and effi- cient red-headed girl who can eschew perfume and long skirts when she is at
 work can do pretty much as she pleases.
 She doesn't need to have her mind con- stantly on herself and her attractions. All she needs to do is to take a little Ijudicious notice of the antics of the
 male mind.

COST'LY Y.

It is already pretty well proved that big strikes don't pay anybody, but a little more evidence may be interesting. The commercial and industrial author ities of Marseilles have prepared a statement to show approximately what the loss of the city amounted to in the first month of the recent great strike there. According to their estimate French vessels alone lost freightage on 250,000 tons Of goods which they would have landed at Marseilles, and on 1SO,- 900 tons which they would have carried away, the amount being more than $9CO, ,OO0 The loss on postoffice subsi- dies paid to the Marseilles shipping companies was $250000. The customs returns of the port showed for the month falling off of nearly $500, O,00O and the sanitary dues paid by vessels were $20,0OO less than usual. Generally during the month of September 35,OOO  passengers sail from Marseilles, This year the total was less than half that figure, and would have been much smaller but for the trans-M Mediterranean service, which was carried on by gov- ernment transports. The commercial traffic between Marseilles and the French colonies amounts to about $9,- OOO,000, and the actual loss under this head alone was probably at least $5,- 100000. The strikers, of course, lost their wages, sailors and lockers alone sacrificing $150,0OO.
 Of course figures like these wont make any impression on strikers. Their counting of the cost comes late, if ever.

II HIT RICnG NIzED

Not long ago 1t was generally thought
 in Europe that corn meal wasn't fit for human beings to eat, but there has been a change. The change was largely due to the efforts of United States agents who showed the people of Eu-
 rope what good things could be made from corn meal. Now the statement is made that more corn Is used in Belgium
 and Ireland for human food than is used by the people of the United States. Belgium imposes no duty on corn, while France and Germany both levy duty on this food product. The Belgian and
 the German do not eat corn bread pure and simple, as it is eaten in the United
 States. In Germany rye and corn meal are mixed in the proportion of two- thirds of the former and one-third of the latter. This mixture was recom- mended by the Berlin Imperial Board .oi Health. which made many tests. Emperor William, it is stated, took great interest in the matter, the first loayes made according to the process being sent ito him. Some German bak-

The recent escapade of Princess Louise of Coburg has brought unfeign- ed joy to the people of the little wa tering place of Blister, not because she fled from there, but because of the way she did it. Before that sensational event the name of the little town was known to few; now it has become fam ous throughout two or more continents. The good people of Blister are not un- grateful to their benefactor, and the Elster Journal has gracefully expressed the common feeling by publishing a. poem of which the following is trans lation: 70 thou who by moonlight left us so brusquely, without economy, and, above all in the most sensational man. ner possible, receive, o Highness, our. thanks for the advertisement which you have given to our town.
