Japan and Russia Compared.

Although the population of Russia is nearly three and half times as great as the population of Japan, says the Worlds Work, and its area near ly six times as great, the Japanese have a million more pupils in their schools than the Russians. They pub fish more periodicals and books. All though Russia has nearly nine times as many miles of railroad, the Jap anese roads carry more passengers, though less freight.
 They send half as many again let ters by post as the Russians send. With only about onefourth as many miles of telegraph wires, they send nearly as many messages. Their trade per capita is greater than the Rus sians both in imports and in exports, although the total trade of the Rus sians, of course, is very much greater.
 The apparent financial and military strength of the Russians is incompar- ably the greater. Yet so cheaply does the Japanese soldier live that Japan may do more with little money than Russia with more.

Left a Letter on the Desk

Our little youngster, six years old, has just reached the ''learning-to- write" stage in school. Sometimes his teacher has the children copy moral precepts from the blackboard into their copy books. Among these was the statement: Kind words are never lost" In Freddy's book, how ever, written clear across the paper to the other margin, this appeared: "Kind words are never los.' When he was asked: "Where is the T, Freddy" he replied: "Oh, there was no room on the paper for the T, so l left it on the desk. You can see it there if you go to the school"
 The same youngster has sister who was married recently. Being on visit to her parents, and happening to catch Freddy in some mischief, his sister reproved him. "Umph." sniffed Freddy, you needn't scold me! You don't belong in my family, anyway"

Their Steering Gear.

A learned but absent-minded pro- lessor has small son who is very observant and inquisitive, and man. servant who has a fund of Irish wit and good humor. One day the small boy was playing with q cat in the stable while Larry cleaned the har- ness. "Larry," he began, why do cats always land on their feet?" 'They shteer themselves wid their tail" "Well, how do rabbits steer them- selves? They haven't long tails-only a stub" "Wid their ears. That's phwat they have their long ears for" "Well, how does bulldog steer him. self? He hasn't got long ears or a long tail." 'NYid his bark" The boy looked doubtful and was silent. Pres entity he ran into his fathers study, and in few minutes came back to the stable. 'Larryw "Yis?" "That's true what you told me about bulldogs. [ asked father, and he read something to mother out of book about 'barks that steer against the wird'"

Fallacy Regarding Bread.

The fallacy that the whiter the bread the higher its quality, seems to prevail all over the world, and the de- mands for snow-white flour have been answered by the production of flour which is robbed of considerable of it's nutrtive value. There are various ways of accomplishing this object, but the purpose comes from France. Here the dough has been treated with ozon- ized air, and the effect was that while the bread was much whiter than the untreated the quality of the bread was very much impaired. Both the taste and the amount of nourishment were very much inferior.

A Trade that Lengtheus Life

The best and healthiest trade in the world is that of dye-making from coal tar. There is no manual work that comes near it, for tar and the smell of it is the best of all tonics and tissue builders. The average life of tar worker comes out at SC years. The mortality is so per cent lower than in any other factory trade. Malignant diseases are almost unknown in aniline dye factories, and even in epidemics the workers suffer very little. And there is nothing like a tar-works for keeping off influenza. Yet the work of actually making the tar, which falls to the gas and coal works, Is virtually unhealthy, because of the sulphur fumes; but when the tar Is finished" it brims with health and strength, and the weakliest men improve while work ing it. Eighty-six years is marvel ous average when we remember that the average length of life for the whole population is only forty-nine.

Creatures Without Eyes.

Marvellous are the lives of creatures condemned to live always in darkness as black as night. One of these crea- lures is a very rare specimen and is styled the cavern beetle. It was first discovered some seventy years ago in an Austrian cave, the grotto of Adels- berg. One specimen only was caught, and, though its discoverer offered a prize of $25 for another, it was four teen years before a second was found. Brought out from its gloomy haunts into the light of the sun, it dies al- most immediately. The sunlight seems to wither and shrivel up these insects, just as though they had been placed iD front of hot fire Yet, in spite of this fact, it is known that the blind cave creatures are descended from oth- CTS which originally lived in the light of day.
