MIR. Stephenson located the farm on
which he died in November, 1854. A
year later he came to Topeka, the next
night after the townsite was laid out.
He came here from Paris, Ill.
AT all times he was a strong anti
slavery man and when trouble came on
he served as a lieutenant in the Second
kansas regiment, company G under Col.
Veale. He was in the Battle of the
B2ue and escaped with a number of
bullet holes in his clothes. His horse
was shot.
His farm out east of the city, where
he died, he preempted in 1854. He lived
in tent on the place for two years
with his wife and two children, and
then built log house, in which seven
other children were born. Since that
time he has built beautiful large white
frame house, a typical country home.
There We're ten children in the family.
Eight are still living.
Mr.. Stephenson was always a promin-
ent member of the Methodist church.
He was one of the charter members of
the First Sunday school in Shawnee
county. DR.. A. S. Embree, a great
friend of the deceased, will preach the
funeral sermon.
The deceased leaves a widow and
eight children as follows: Emma E
Naylor, Los Angeles; Eva J. Wright

u. G. Stephenson, Hutchinson, Kan;
Jesse Stephenson, Los Angeles; Mary E
Stephenson, who lives at home: Mrs
J. o. Butler of Temple, o. T.. and Mrs
George Lockhart, also at home.

The Diet Cure in Japan.

Japan has a diet specialist, whose
name is Sagen Ishidsuka; he is often
regarded as an advocate of the vege-
tarianism; but he is not vegetarian
in the literary sense. Both his grand
father and his father practiced in the
Chinese school of medicine, and he also
learned Chinese pathology in his
earlier age; then the western medicine
through Dutch books which were i'm
ported into the country even before
the Taikoon did not take the open
quite an old man. While he was un-
der the service of the imperial army
as a military pharmacist, he had taken
special interest in studying the rela-
ton of health and diet, and has been
investigating scientifically what is the
proper food for mankind. He has
reached the conclusion that nearly all
illness comes out of the improper diet.
The construction of human teeth is
the best proof that the grain food is
most suitable for the man, he says.
According to the opinion of DR.. Ishid-
suka, those who engage in the work
of muscle only may take the meat for
their food; it is not always the suitable
those who engage in brain work as
well as those who spend their days in
idle manner, ought to take the SIM
pie vegetable food. The reason why
| there are so many unhealthy persons
among the Japanese mobiles is that they
take heterogeneous substance as their eS-
sentiai food while they never work
hard, is his opinion. He gives the di-
rection of the diet to any patients who
requests his consultations. after he has
examined the Iatter's physical condi-
| ton, and is gaining good results. There
are many mobiles at present. who are
under his ward. He publishes a
monthly magazine for the special pur-
+, pose of propagating his gospel for the
| diet cure.

can recognize her by the instinct of re-
lationship, and because he has been thus
nurtured." And now all the world
marvels at the unanimity of this people,
in their apparently impossible task at
the patriotism which has intensified the
sacred flame that burns in the inner
most holy place of every man in every
nation; at the perfection of detail in
their organization (and organization on
this scale is a great imaginative effort); |;
at the self-restraint not only of the
armies, but of the people and even of
the press; and, of course, most of all.
at the gigantic imaginative effort by
which they have again, as has happen
ed before, surveyed the world and, dis
eliminating between principle and prac-
tice, deliberately appropriated all they
wanted of western science and methods

mate as to cause and effect-London

thusiam of his desire to hear the
ancient chants which were then eX-
tant. Ancient ballads were collected
by the sage, by way of illustrating the
manners of the Chinese Golden Age,
when its songs furnished the test by
which the welfare or miSgovernment
of a province was to be determined :"
And in Prof. Nitobe's fascinating lit
tie book, 'Bushido," we read: In the
principality of Satsuna, noted for it's
martial spirit and education, the Gus
tom prevailed for young men to practice
music; not the blast of trumpets or the
beat of drums-'those clamorous harbin-
gers of blood and death'-stirring US to
Initiate the actions of the tiger, but
sad and p1aintive melodies on the biwa,
soothing our fiery spirits drawing our
thoughts away from scent of blood and
scenes of carnage" He also tells how
the training to rhythmic expression in
language is now so much an instinct
with the people that it is quite common
for soldier on the march to draw out
his tablets and write a little poem on
any passing scene or thought. This is
confirmed by Lafcadio Hearn Qn
"Glimpses of Unfamiliar Japan'O, who
states that on the pf1grimages under
taken by the poorest, the pilgrim leaves
little sonnet behind at the nightly
resting place.
The author (Hearn)f tells again how
a crowd of holiday folk, in walking on

tionally into a rhythmic beat; and how
in a remote country district he saw a
harvest dance where, without organiza-
tion or direction, crowd of 500 or 600
peasants formed themselves in a few
moments into revolving wheels of
dancers round central figure, keeping
the measure and peculiar steps for hours
through the night
The book was written some years ago
but it shows throughout that the au-
thor considers that the feeling of the
harmony and rhythm in things has gone
right into the souls and bodies of the
people, unconscious and unreasoning
but so that, as Plato predicts of musical
training in the child, when reason come

RHYTHM IN JAPANESE LIFE.
Reason for Japan's Triumph Is Nation

triumphing over her unWieldly enemy,
he argues, it is because she has

Chinese civilization. He says Gas far
back as 500 B. CO: The supreme
canon of life was the self-sacriflce of
the individual to the community and
art was priced for it's service to the
moral needs of society. Music, it is
to be noted, was placed in the highest
rank, its special function being to har-
monize men with men, and communi-

music, therefore, was the first accom-

of the balance and have one apple
over, and to the daughter one-half of
the remainder and half an apple over,
