Old Photographs.

From the National Magazine.
There are very few homes which have not
numerous old photographs too precious to
be thrown away. yet OF interest 10 few be-
side the immediate family. These generally
take up too much space TO be kept where
they can be gotten at conveniently, and 50
are carefully put in boxes in the store room
or attic to be kept from the dust. So when
we would gladly spend few moments
looking on the familiar faces and scenes
aIasI 1t is too much trouble to get them out
Here is one solution of the problem: Put
the photographs in clear. hot water, and In
a short time the pictures can be easily re-
moved from the cards. When dry. either
trim down the picture Ito econoEnize space
or cut away the background entirely. This
last requires care, but can be done without
destroying the outline. Mount these in a
scrap book. or better still, book made
especially for kodak pictures This book or
these books Of more than one is needed
can be made very interesting by clever ar
rangement of the pictures. grouping reia-
tives, school friends. army comrades, baoes,
out-of- door scenes, etc. IN different portions
of the book.

It absorbs the injurious gases which collect IN

EXPRESSES HIS APPRECIATION.

Minister Takahfra has publicly expressed
his appreciation of the many tributes OF
regard that have been paid him by the citi-
zens of this country.
at is gratifying" said he, ito see that
my movements In the future should be con-
sidered worthy enough to be made the sub
iect of so much discussion as observed
lately from the newspapers of Washington
and other cities. I am going home on
leave of absence obtained two and half
years ago. but which could not be awaited
of for reasons too obvious to explain. So
my visit to Japan Is the fulfllment of an
old engagement and entirely Of a personal
nature. On this eve of my departure 1t Is
most pleasant to recollect what I have ex-
perienced during my stay here of five years
and Ave months, which began In July, 1900,
when the Boxer trouble was at It's height,
and ended with the exchange Of the ratifi-
cation of the treaty of peace concluded
through the most noble and humane action
of the President to bring together the two
then warning nations for the purpose.
81 received throughout this long, eventful
ton I could expect from all the officials of
this government with whom I was fortu-
nate enough to come In contact. and also
unusual sympathy and friendship from
every citizen of this country, and have no
hesitation to declare that simply because of
such friendly consideration and sympathy
as received from every one was enabled
to discharge my duties. which otherwise
must have been onerous to me. / feel
grateful for all that was done by them. and
1t will be my pleasure on my return home to
inform my countrymen Of everything that
has tended to my agreeable experience and
of every reason can think OF for the
marked consideration and sympathy I re-
ceived from the officials. as we'll as the citi-
zens, so disinterested and dgnffed.
''In view of such agreeable relations as 1
had with them In the past, and also Of the
growing importance of promoting them
more and more throughout the future
which is fully recognized by the whole Japa-
nese nation, regardless of the parties and
classes. / can say without the slightest
doubt that this post will be regarded as one
of the highest in the whole diplomatic serv-
ice OF Japan. and It will be the greatest
ambition of any japanese diplomat to be
sent here as the representative Of the en-
peror. If, therefore, 1t should be my for
tune to be returned here again in that
capacity, will certainly consider X great
honor and pleasure. but all 1 can say at
this moment Is that whoever Is appointed
to this post will do all in his power, not
only to maintain. but to promote the i'm
portant relations growing between the
United States and Japan"

In America, as in England, the circus Is
the fashion Just now. The opening of New
York's great amphitheater. which far and
away surpasses the world-famous Hippo
drome In London both in architecture and in
the magnifcence of Its productions. has
reused the entire country to new interest
In the wonders of mammoth tent show.
Fashionables from Boston to Frisco have
taken up this form of amusement as their
latest fad. and as Christmas approaches 1t
Is the circus which affords the inspiration
for much of the holiday entertaining.
To give genuine pleasure to children no
happier idea could have been hit upon The
little ones like nothing quite so much as the
animals and the clowns which they meet at
''the greatest show on earth" So clever
women who make the amusement of chill
dren their particular study are planning the
Christmas parties this year after features
in the up-to-date circus, and the young
sters themselves are to be the chief per-
formers.
What, for instance, could be more fas-
cfnating to the onlooker and give more
happiness than Christmas tree party to
which the children all come dressed as
clowns-those funny fellows who have grim
maced at them SO often across the foot
lights or from the bark-strewn ring? And
this Is just what one little boys friends are
