this, for, whenever the kimono is wash

haps why the Japanese, who battle

the Chinese, who battle sometimes
wear such clean clothes The kimono
strips are dabbed up and down. with
out soup. scrubbed with brush and
are ironed by drying them carefully on
boards. One Of the sights of town
are these boards, with their strips Of
silk leaning against the sides of the
houses.
The peasant women not only do the
housework, but out of door work as

sers and stand knee deep in the slush
of the rice paddles, guide the water

the trees look as il they We're wearing

discovery Of gold at Nome, was that
made of it as a government reserva-
tion for reindeer. This was at Cape
Prince of Wales, where there was also
mission. The rush to Nome natural
ly resulted in an overflow into the York
region, but no immediate success re-

until 1908 that this region began to
receive the systematic attention 1t
merited.

1900, when prosecutors in search OF

heavy black gravel, and became so
disgusted with its prevalence that they
