A Missionary's Views on the Orient.

The Rev. E. B. Kennedy, mission
airy who has been at work in Japan
and China for the past seven years,
stopped awhile in Fergus Falls on his
way to his destination.
He came across the Pacific on the
Minnesota with the ENJOYS, and is
we'll acquainted with several of the
party. He states that the ENJOYS are
far from certain that they will be able
to make peace, and that the people of
Japan with whom he came in contact
are perfectly willing that the war shall
continue until Russia is willing to ad-
nit that she is thoroughly defeated.
The Japanese are anxious for peace,
but it is permanent peace that they
want, and they propose to fight until
terms are obtained that will make it
permanent
"And after the war is over," con-
tinued Mr.. Kennedy, ''just await de-
velopments. Japan is going to forge
to the front, and is going to remake
China. The Japanese are going to be
able to capture practically the entire
trade of the Chinese empire; they are
at China's very door; they are a
patient, Woodworking people; they
can manufacture goods as we'll as any
people on earth, and labor in Japan
is cheap. All that is lacking is the
necessary capital to establish factor
les, and they are confident that they
will be able to secure that. The En-
glish, German, French and American
trader is going to be superseded by
the japanese. Prejudice counts for
great deal, and the Chinese are not
prejudiced against the Japanese; they
are prejudiced against the Europeans,
and they have reason to be. When
the Russian, German, French or En-
glish capitalists want concessions in
China their governments force the
Chinese to give them. And the
Chinese know it. Do not imagine
that the Chinaman is a fool, or that
he does not know anything about what
is going on. He does. Bulldozing
tactics may work for a while, but
they are not going to work forever.
':The great trouble with China to-
day is graft. There is more or less
graft here, understand, but in China
it has crystallized and infests the
whole body Of public oficialdom.
The petty officer exacts what he can,
and the higher officer exacts still more
on every possible occasion. A man
must buy justice if he is going to Sc.
cure it in the courts, and the man who
has the most money or the most power
is the man who wins his case. The
corruption is gross and notorious.
In Japan, on the other hand, the
courts are generally free from any
thing savoring of corruption, and !
believe Japan has the best police sys-
TEN in the world.
"There is also great contrast in
the physical conditions of the two PEG
Piles. The Japanese are absolutely
clean, their houses are clean and their
streets are clean, while in China
houses, streets and people are filthy.
I think you have too high an idea Of
the morals of the Japanese, however.
While graft is not common among
their public officials, their standards
of morality in general are no higher
than those of the Chinese; in fact, !
sometimes doubt if they are quite as

The railroad round-house, together
with its contents, including three
locomotives, was destroyed by fire at
Morton on Monday. The night crew
was in the oil car when the fire first
broke out, but has no knowledge OF
the origin. The fact that the long
trestle west of the town was discov-
cred to be on fire the previous day
gives rise to the suspicion that both
fires were the work of tramps.

ON CLEANING SILVER.
Ehould Be Done as Seldom as Possible
-Woolens Cause Tarnish When
Used for Wrapping.

The methods of clening silver are as
many as the roses OF June. Silver
should be cleaned as seldom as posi-
BILE. the frequency depending upon the
daily care. The gradual wear OF daily
use and mere washing and wiping are
considerable. and, when the rubbing
with cleaning powders is added to that,
we wonder there is any heirloom silver
left.
II the silver Is carefully washed and
wiped according to the directions and
then occasionally polished with a
chamois, the cleanlngs need not be
frequent. II silver furnishes quickly,
the housewife should look carefully to
her traps and furnace, because this
rapid discoloration is pretty good In
dication of the presence OF noxiouss
gases.
One of the best ways Of cleaning
large pieces of silver. that are covered
with a great amount OF ornamentation
is to place them In kettle Of warm
soda water and bring them gradually
to the boiling point. Line the kettle
with pieces of cloth and lay pieces of
cloth between the silver. Rinse In
clear, hot water and wipe with soft
towels. Polish with chamo!s. There
should be great caution against using
too great pressure when rubbing the
silver, for, especially II 1t is old, II
may be bent easily and misshapen.
A most satisfactory way Of cleaning
silver Is to rub the article all over with
alcohol and polish with dry silver pol
ish applied with a piece Of soft cloth,
old damask, or silver brush when the
pieces are ornamented. Polish with
old, clean damask and finally with the
channels.
Pieces of silver that are seldom used
should be wrapped in cotton flannel
cases, never in flannels or other wool
ems, because they cause it to tarnish.
The same may be said Of steel knife
blades. Woolens cause them to rust,
probably by absorbing moisture

HINTS TO HoUsEKEEPERs.

Plunge your bread-knife into hot wa
ter before attempting to cut warm bread
or cake.
No one should ever attempt to wash
dishes without two pans-one for the
washing proper and one for rinsing.
Sprinkle salt over the coal in your
bin in liberal quantities; it will make It
burn more evenly and prevent "clink-
ers."
II you cannot procure dampened saw
dust for use in sweeping, use bits OF
dampenei paper sprinkled over the floor
Tea leaves stain and salt makes the car
pet sticky.
A severe paroxysm of coughing may
be often arrested by q tablespoonful OF
glycerine in wineglass of hot milk.
Besides the bother in winding worsted
for fancy work of In the balls, 1t Is not
good for the worsted itself. 1t stretches
it, and removes something Of the light
surface, making 1t stringy. 1t Is better
to unwind a skein into very loose
round, like bottomless nest in shape,
and holding this on the lap, use from
it in working
The same precautions that are used in
washing fine woolens need to be taken
with silk. Prepare suds of white soap
and fairly hot water and add to each
gallon Of water two tablespoonful
of ammonia. If the ammonia is strong,
use only one tablespoonful. Let the gar
ments soak in the suds for some time,
half an hour, or longer. Wash by rub

ing. Never rub on board, and never
rub soap on the silk, unless some spots
are unusually obstinate. Rinse thor
oughly; this means through two or three
waters, the same temperature as the
washing water. Iron when nearly dry.
If the garments are very delicate press
under thin muslin.
For nervousness, try celery tea, which
may be made by stepping the tops, roots,
or even the seed, or by draining the wa
ter from cooked celery.-Boston Budget

was as sorry for that accident as we
were, and they would take off their hats

STRONGER THAN MEAT.
A Judges Opinion of Grape-Nuts

A gentleman who has acquired Q
judicial turn Of mind from expert

opinion as to the value of Grape-Nuts
as food. He says:
"For the past years Grape-Nuts
has been q prominent feature In our

"The crisp food with the delicious,
nutty flavor has become an indispensa-
BILE necessity in my family's everyday
