FISHERIES OF JAPAN.
In Many Respects They Take First
Rank Over Those of Other Nations.

In Many Respects They Take First
Rank Over Those of Other Nations.
The fisheries of Japan are less valu-
able than those Of several other coun-
tries, but they take first rank over
those Of all other nations % in the
actual number Of people making live
lihood thereby; CO. in the relative num-
Der Of persons engaged in and depend
ent on the industry; 81 in the quaint
ty Of products taken annually from
the water; a. in the relative impor-
lance of fishery products in the domes-
TIC economy; 90 in the ingenuity and
skill shown by the people in devising
and using fishing appliances and pre-
pairing the catch for Use; g. in the ex-
tent to which all kinds of water prod
ucts are utilized; ~ in the extent to
which the fisheries Of foreign countries
have been studied and the best meth
DDS adapted to home conditions; 81 In
the extent to which agriculture has
been carried; 60 in the zeal and intelli-
gence displayed by the government in
promoting the development Of the fish
cries and the welfare Of the fishing
population.
From the earliest times down to the
present day, fishing has supplied the
staple animal foods and a large por-
ton Of the vegetable and mineral
foods consumed in Japan, and none Of
the other great powers is now so de-
pendent on the water for subsistence.
So important are water products and
30 numerous are their kinds and the
methods of preparation, that venture
the assertion, from what l have seen
of domestic life in Japan, that every
day in every japanese family some
form of fishery food is served-I am
almost ready to say at every meal.
The Japanese fishermen as a class
are hardy, skillful. energetic, sober,
self-reliant, to which qualities is super
added q spirit of intense bravery and
patriotism, which makes them invalu-
able, indeed Indispensable, in the crisis
through which Japan Is now passing.
With ingenuity and dizziness which, it
seems to me, are unsurpassed by any
other people, the Japanese have de-
vised apparatus and developed meth
DDS which centuries ago brought their
fisheries to very high degree of eff
fectiveness; but not content with this,
they have within our own time super

Prejudice.

The word prejudice" comes from
two Latin words pro" or pre-" be
forehand. and "judico," Judge. There
fore prejudice means the forming OF
an opinion beforehand or before
knowledge. To form an opinion or de
clare judgment concerning any sub
ject without or ignoring knowledge is
prejudice" An opinion formed after
a lifelong acquaintance and expert
ence and after thorough Investigation
and study may be erroneous, but can
not properly be styled prejudice. y
When the teaching and experiences of
the world are disregarded, when the
facts of history and science are ig-
nored or denied, the conclusions or
opinions thus arrived at must not only
be mistaken, but they must be the re-
suit of prejudice.

Cure For The Blues
one MEDICINE that HAS NEVER FAILED
Health Fully Restored and the 10y of

When a cheerful, brave, ight-hearted
woman is suddenly plunged into that

She has been feeling "out of sorts"

for some time; head has ached and
back also; has slept poorly, been quite
nervous, and nearly tainted once or
twice; head dizzy, and heartbeats very
fast; then that bearing-down feeling,
and during her menstrual period she is
exceedingly respondent. Nothing
pleases her. Her doctor says: Cheer
up: you have dyspepsia; you will be
all right soon."

A branch of the fisheries in which
Japan far surpasses all other coun-
tries as regards both extent and in
genuity of method is the seaweed in
dustry. In the United States, notwith-
standing our long coast line and sea-
weed resources, not inferior to Japan's,
the annual crop of marine vegetables
is worth only $4,000, whereas in ia
pan these products are worth not less
than S2,O0O,00O, and are exceeded IN
value by only four animal products
of the fisheries Many kinds of algae
are gathered and many uses are made
Of them. The local consumption is
enormous, and large quantities Of pre-
pared seaweeds are exported to China,
Europe and elsewhere.-Hugh NJ.
