the United States see the Worlds Fair,
the most glorious spectacle Of the age
and the most influential factor in the

n The bureau Is In charge Of Miss Ger:
1rude Beeks, secretary Of the Fedora
lions welfare department, Of which
Mr.. II. n. vreeland, head Of the street
railway system Of New York city, is
chairman. The bureau headquarters is

position management is in hearty ac-
cord with this movement on the part
of the Federation to induce the large

almost impossible to get long timbers
from this district. The Chinese in their
native affairs seldom use any but short
timbers, and all the timber cut for Chi
nese consumption is cut into short
lengths in the forests.
Up to the present the logs from this
section have been cut into lumber by
the whipsaw method. the natives using
a thin and narrow saw blade with teeth
set so as to cut Doth ways. Where the
Russians have charge of the sawmills
they have introduced large and heavy
saws, cutting only on the downward
stroke-such saws as are used in our
country for wh1psawing lumber. With
these the natives accomplish much more.

are bound to have a good time. A son is
necessary to carry on the worship of his
parents and to keep the ancestral fires
lit. If a man has not son, he adopts
one or takes another wife. If a woman
has not son, she knows what to expect.
Polygamy finds it's excuse in religion.
Japanese girls are by no means so high
ly, valued, but, as can be seen, they
work into the general scheme. Children
being a religious necessity, their place
is fixed. Supplementing this is the
natural joy of parents in their own
progeny and the sense of possession.
Curiously enough, pampered as they
are, the children are never caressed.
The Japanese regard kissing as vulgar,
animal and unsanitary. Even foreign
children would willingly give up being
kissed in return for never being scolded
or whipped.
A baby wears layers of those long
easy slips we know as kimonas, which
cover it's feet and it's hands. Conse-
quently, it has no cause for crying when
| it is dressed. Even the poorest baby has
| its daily hot bath. Hot in Japan means
10 degrees Fahrenheit, temperature
that gives even grown person lively
recollections. Its head is shaved, with
the exception of a small tuft until it is
three years old. One of the few repusive
sights in Japan is the number of sore
headed children seen on the streets.
| These sores are not allowed to heal, the
theory being that in this manner all the
evil humors of the body are expelled

euBA,s RICHEST WOMAN.
Sonora Abrcu, in Spite of Her Wealth
ind Social Rank, Is IL Simon
Pure Democrat.

Havana has it's Sonora Abreu, just as
England has its Baroness Burdett-
Coutts, and just as the United States has
its Hetty Green.
She is the richest woman in Cuba, a
handsome, intelligent, rather aristo-
cratic widow, worth 50 900, 900, and with
no membranes. She is considered a
catch.
To northern eyes 100000 does not
seem important. But, says the Boston
Globe, that sum of money in Cuba is
looked upon as immense wealth, and so
it is, considering the impoverished con-
dition of the island, and the years of OPP
preston when there was no incentive
to amass wealth.
Rosa Abreu is a Cuban born. Her hus-
band Was a Cuban, and all her interests
and sympathies are entirely non-Span-
ish. Aside from Countess Fernandino,
vana, principally for her social charm,
her great generosity in charitable mat
tiers, her taste in dress, and her hospi-
tality.
She lives in the Cerro, fashionable
suburb of Havana, or more precisely at
Palatino, on the edge of the Cerro. On
Sunday afternoon and evening she
holds a salon, which has actually be-
come famous in the West Indies.
Everybody goes. 1t is the meeting
place of the representatives of the best
Cuban and American society in Havana.

walls of her dining rooms. The literary

woman, with clear, bright, quick mind

At the Abreu dancing parties one
meets the prettiest Cuban girls of the
capital and the best of the Americans

and French as perfectly as Spanish, she
is quite competent to entertain cos

and verandas surround it on all sides

surrounds it and makes the house

and it has been the source of supply for
both this and the Tientsin markets for
ages.
The ocean and river junks are built
of this timber, hewn out in large pieces,
often three feet or more in width. There
are about $4,000 of these junks trading
at Niuchwang. The timber is mostly
pine, very much like the white pine of
the United States. This is the best quail
fly of lumber that have seen in China.
The percentage of clear wood is not very
large.
There is also considerable fir, usual
ly much smaller than the pine, and also
q timber similar to our tamarack. These
are the three varieties from the Yalu
district that have seen. 1t is brought
I into Niuchwang and the other markets
of China on junks. These junks, when
coming to Niuchwang usually sail in
fleets as means of protection against
pirates, who often board them near the
mouth of the river and rob them or levy
tribute on them.
Most of this timber is driven or RATED
down the Yalu in short lengths, and it is
