Since the beginning of the war Jap
an has increased her debt from about
s290,000,00O to 1881, 100000, but of
this amount she has on hand perhaps
as much as $175,00O,000 unexpended.
In the same time Russia's debt has in
creased from ,2S2,OOO,OOO to about
$3,700,00O,00O. Japan will probably
receive about $100,OO0,O00 from Russia
in payment for the maintenance of
prisoners Of war, and Russia must also
borrow money for her immediate
needs at home. Japan, therefore,
seems to come out Of the war in bet
ter financial condition than Russia. In
spite Of the latter country's vastly
greater resources.

The hay fever serum or pollantine
Of Dr. Dunbar of Hamburg is shown
to have proven very effective. Having
first proven that hay fever Is due to
the pollen poison from grasses, ce-
reals and other plants, the investigator
sought a preventive by repeated vac
cinatlon of animals with the poison Of
pollen. The antitoxin thus produced
in the blood serum neutralizes the
poisonous effect of pollen in the eyes
and nose. The serum is not injected
under the skin, like others, but simply
applied to nose and eyes.

Nuremburg, Germany, in conjunc-
ton with the Society o. German Clock
Makers, recently erected a monument
to Peter Henlein. Four hundred years
ago he substituted springs for weights
in clocks, and thus prepared the way
for the watch. His work also meant
that clocks could be made smaller,
since length was no longer required
for the fall of the weight. 1t is prob
able that the first spring was not
coiled as at present, but consisted of
strip fastened at one end, with a
string at the other end pulled down
and coiled round the driving wheel
The spring thus acted like the sapline
in moose trap. Its play was limited
and the timepiece soon ran down.

this type, and they were regarded as
the finest af1oat
France at that time had fourteen
battleships, each Of over 10000 tons
displacement, the largest being the
Bouvet, of 12,2O5 tons. There are
now twentysix battleships, each of
more than 10000 tons, in the French
navy, the heaviest being the Demo-
cratic class, now building, ships of H.
635 tons. Italy, in 1895, had ten bat
tleships ranking above the 1O,OOO-ton
class, the heaviest being the Lepanto,
a 15,90O-ton ship, built in 1888, and so
heavily armed and armored that she
almost found 1t difficult to get out of
her own way. She is now ranked as
a second-class battleship; but she is
not considered fit to stand even in
that line. The Italia. sister ship to
the Lepanto, was built in 1880, and
was for many years the largest bat
tleship afloat. She represents an early
attempt to build monster battle
ship, but, apart from size, she has
never been considered at all formida-
BILE. Italy now has fourteen battle
ships, each over 10000 tons, the heavi-
est being the Regina Margherlta, 49,
124 tons.
In 1895 the United States and Ger
many were equal as to battleships of
over 10000 tons. Each had four; the
United States had the heaviest ship
in the Iowa, of 11,340 tons. Germany s
four were uniformly 10000 tons. Now
Germany has eighteen heavy battle
ships, and six building The United
States has twelve, with thirteen build
ing and two projected. The heaviest
German battleships to-day are her r..
997-ton class; the heaviest in the Uni
ted States is the Connecticut class,
10000 tons.
The wars Of the United States with
Spain and Japan with Russia have not
been without their lessons to the naval
powers, and the tendency is to build
larger and heavier battleships,. so that
they may carry more tremendous bat.
teries. The determination to build
these enormous ships was arrived al
only after considerable discussion. II
was thought by some naval construc,
tors that more units, each Of consid.
erable power, were to be desired above
a few battleships Of the greatest
power.
1t was thought that the Dreadnought
would be the last word in warshiI
construction for many years, but now
1t appears that japan is to build three
battleships Of 10000 tons EACH Ger
many is reported to be considering g
20,OOO-ton warship, and France next
year is to lay down one of 2O,5OO tons

Does village improvement pay?
Those who doubt it may find some
thing suggestive in the conclusion Of
man who is looking for home in Il
New England village accessible from
Boston. In his search he visited one
town to which he had been recon-
mended. He found the railway station
shabby, the common, in sight from the
station, covered with long grass, and
weeds growing along the sidewalks.
The whole place had bedraggled and
neglected air. The man decided at
once that he did not care to buy prop.
erty or to live among people appar-
emily so Indifferent to appearances as
those who controlled affairs in that
town.
