4 GREAT DAY FoH CORN.

It may be well enough to take min ute off from the contemplation of Civil Service Reform and the Board of Con- trol to notice that though New Haven is so agitated that it seems to some of her citizens that there is nothing in the world but New Haven and her agitation, there really are other things. For instance. corn. Unmindful of all our turmoil, our solemnity, and even our high moral tone, corn is quietly and gaily growing. And yesterday it hearti- ly joined in with the congregation in singing Day of all the week the best" Yesterday was great day for corn, and though in narrow sense it might have been a better day for human
 beings, human beings can find comfort in asking themselves if good corn days are also not good days for them. It isn't altogether pleasant to sweat in bearing fardels, or in going to Com- mencement exercises or to ordinary
 meeting. But corn didn't sweat yester- day. It was wholly comfortable and contented, as comfortable and con- tented as Shadrach, Meshach and
 Abednego were in the fiery furnace. By
 and by it will come out in as good shape as they did and do us all good. John ny-cake is good, and some think corn whisky is. Let us therefore rejoice with corn instead of cussing the good corn weather. Especially do we counsel such ac+ion at this time because if we get
 discontented and talky about the weather some educated and critical gen. tlemen will surely get up on his hind legs and demand that it be investigat- ed. Then we shall have new trouble
 before we are off with the old, and do we really want any more investigations just now?

sent having an opening of the exact size of the coin required.
 Some people wrap a scrap of paper around coin before putting it in a let ter, and this helps to prevent the sharp edges of the coin from cutting or break ing through the envelope. But more and more people nowadays have ad- vanced on that. Some for instance, now take card and cut in it parallel slits not quite so far apart as the dia- meter Of the coin and they crowd the opposite edges of the coin into the two sits between which it is held.
 And then some people take a card and lay the coin on it and simply paste a piece of paper over it on the card {; and then there are many people now who lay coin down on the paper on which they are, writing, near the corner, and then double the corner of the paper over the coin and paste over it down to the sheet around it.
 So there are many ways of sending a coin in letter without fear of it's shifting about in it and breaking out; and while there are still plenty of peo- pie who just drop a coin in a letter and let it go, there are more people who in sending coins by mail now exercise a reasonable care.-New York Sun.

faithfully carry out the orders of your commander. I send you to take the place of death, and I have no doubt you are ready to die but do not mean to advise you to despise your life, nor to run needless risks in trying to make a great name. What I ask of you all lis to do your duty regardless of life. The cup of water that now offer you is not meant to give you courage-it would be shameful if our men needed courage to go to the place of death-it is only to make you representatives of the honor of the Asama. Submit your life to the will of heaven, and calmly perform your duty.

HOW TO MAIL COINS.

Many Devices for Sending Them in Let ters.
 Coins sent loose in a letter." said clerk in an establishment receiving
 much money by mail, "are always like ly to break through the envelope and get lost; but there are various ways in which this may be avoided, and people generally now show more care in send ing coins by mail than they formerly did.
 There are now made devices es- pecially designed for use in sending lcoins through the mails-coin carriers. One of these consists of card of the thickness of the coin and having punched in it a hole of the exact size of the coin to be sent, this card having a patch of thin paper paster on the back of it, across the coin hole while on the other side there is pasted, by one edge, a flap that can be pasted down over the hole on that side when the coin has been inserted in it.
 ''In such holder it is obviously inn possible for the coin to move about in the letter. Such devices are used by | concerns sending out circulars inviting subscriptions to periodicals, the holder

somE JapANEsE IDEAS.

The Japanese have some pretty fine Pagans, as Russia would like Ito have them considered and called George Kennan, special correspondent of the Outlook magazine at the seat of war, declares that it is mistaken idea to suppose that Japanese courage is nothing more than Oriental fatalism. "The Japanese soldier does not he says, fight bravely because he regards his fate as irrevocably fixed in such a way that neither courage nor cowardice can change it. He goes cheerfu1ly and ifearlessly to death, when necessary, for l the simple reasons that he loves and is iproud of his country, that death is a civic duty which he owes to sDai Nip pon,' and that his friends and kinfolks --the men and women who waved flags over his head and shouted 'Banzain when they bade him goodby-are ex- pecting him to choose death in prefer l lence to disgrace without a moments hesitation and without single regret" 1 As Illustrating the kind of thought kept constantly in the Japanese mind, MT.
 Kennan notes that when Captain Ya- shiro, of the battleship Asama, bade good-by to the men who had volunteers ed to take the blocking steamers to the entrance of Port Arthur he gave them I to drink from large silver loving cup 1 filled with cold water-as if he were giving them the wine of the sacrament -and said to them: In sending you

Two Stories of People Who Were Too Quick With differences.
 T have gone into the missionary business" said s. B. Todd, the school
 book man, at the Hotel Pfster yester- day, II believe that more than half the troubles that exists between people in
 this age come from the fact that we jump at conclusions. For example, I was taking breakfast in flat building

 the house answered. We heard one
 side of the conversation, which ran as follows:

 and when I informed them that the hostess, after resuming her seat at the 1 table, remarked that MT. Snyder had met with an accident and had three oi l his fingers mashed in the door. there was round of laughter that shook the
 building, and I concluded that my aud- fence had been guilty of jumping at a conclusion. It also reminded me of the young woman who went to her minister and in the course of her converse tion 1 told him that it was an easy thing tc write sermon If you had a good text. I could write one myself if I had a good passage from the Scriptures, 1 she remarked.

The unsearehabIe Mysteries.

One craved a boon--and on his knees The wakeful night, the weary day, Assailed Gods throne with anguished
 fire
 In longing for his hearts desire, And yet, no sign there came to say His time of travelling might cease. Another put his wish away Else honor, manhood, both had died; Pronunciation, faith in good. Hallowed the darkness of his road But, what he felt must be denied, God granted him, unasked, one day. Thus Iife's sad ironies neer cease; For those who grope with broken heart Maybe there seems no ray of light, Yet songs come sometimes in the night. Who wins, may lose the better part.

LIFE STILL ME MNnou us.

The fate of nations is still decided by their wars. You may talk of orderly tribunals and learned referees; you may sing in your schools the gentle praises of the quiet life; you may strike from your books the last note of every martial anthem, and yet out in the smoke and thunder will all ways be the tramp of horses and the silent, rigid, upturned face. Men may prophecy and women pray; but peace will come here to abide forever on this earth only when the dreams of child hood are the accepted charts to guide the destinies of men. Events are num- berless and mighty, and no man can tell which wire runs around the world. The nation basking to-day in the quiet of contentment and repose may still be on the deadly circuit and tomorrow |writhing in the tolls of war. This is the time when great figures must be kept in front. If the pressure is great, the material to resist it must be gran lite and iron.
 So said ex-Governor Black in his speech nominating Roosevelt, and much is made of it by those who think that Roosevelt is too strenuous. But unfortunately there is more truth than poetry in ex-Governor Blacks words about war, and though this country |isn't quite ready fora military dictator, la President who is of fighting quality might be useful.
