All druggists sell charcoal in one

it was arranged that lingerie should

While the world is filed with amaze
ment at the Japanese victories on land
and sea, few people give any thought
to the wonderful powder known as
= shlmose, = after it's ingenious and ex-
wrought such terrific havoc among the
hosts OF imperial Russia.
An Unknown Power.
AS in all other departments of Ja-
pans wonderful work, an all but i'm
penetrable veil Of secrecy has been
drawn over the Investigations, and even
the personality Of her chemist in explo-
s1ves, DIR. Clan Shimose. He was born
in the very humblest circumstances in
the province of Hiroshima some forty
seven years ago, when railways and reg
ular steamers were practically unknown
in the island empire. And yet as
youth Shimose determined to make his
miles from his native village in Hiro-
shima to Toxic.
That his plans were already fully de-
veloped in his mind will be seen from
the fact that on reaching the Japan
ese capital he was able to pass fairly
stiff examination at once, and forthwith
gained the first round in the battle Of
surely one Of the most go
ahead academic institutions in the
world, not even excepting Yale, Har-
ward and Columbia.
His Indomitable Spirit.
It is no exaggeration to say, that
young Shimose quite commonly felt the
pinch of actual starvation. Certain! it
is he was ordinarily without the few
coppers necessary for the barber or the
bath man! It need hardly be said that

every examination with perfect preci-
sion; yet, strange to say, after gradu,,
ating with the highest honors, he could
find no better employment that assist
ant in humble printing office at wages
which appear to us simply laughable-
something under 10 shillings a week!
He became 50 skilful in the printing
office that it suddenly occurred to him
he might get employment from the gov
ernment in this way, and at length, af-
ter many demonstrations Of his ability
he was given, on trial, somewhat re-
sponsible position in the government
printing works in Toxic.
It was at this stage of his career that
Shimose turned his thoughts to inven'
| operations in connection with his OWE
employment. After many experiments
| he succeeded in producing the curious
ink which is now used in Japan fol
bank notes and paper money generally
and which renders forgery and altera
tion practically impossible. The secret
like all Japanese secrets, was so wei
kept that the productions Of the very
ablest counterfeiters were instantly de
| tected.
It was while employed in the govern
nent printing works that Shimos
turned his attention to naval and mill
tary implements Of all kinds, offensiv
Z and defensive. He was brought int
| contact with naval and military officers
both foreign and native, and began t
discuss eagerly with them the compo
nents Of the various high explosive
used thruout the world.

No quality is more important or help
full in business than that of freshness,
the productive energy that springs from
hand. To be eager for a piece of work,
in good spirits concerning it.. means at
least the good beginning Of the job; to
finish the Job in this frame of mind
means, other things being equal, effect
i've production.
What is it that so often renders the
work Of the comparatively untrained
that of his tried and tested elder9 Fresh
ness; the enthusiasm of an unjaded
work attitude or point Of view.
What is it that makes Of severest
athletic training play while wood chop
ping figures as hard labor? The one is
undertaken with enthusiasm and fresh
ness, the other performed unwillingly as
disagreeable task.
The really successful worker, the
worker who would remain permanently
successful, must carry this freshness of
spirit and method into every piece of
work undertaken, must retain it, un-
spoiled and unhampered, thru all the
changes and vicissitudes Of life. All
really great men have been distin-
guished by freshness Of spirit, by peren-
NAL, indomitable, optimistic enthusiasm
Of mind and spirit. In no way can this
effective freshness be so well main
tanned as by the preservation of high
and youthful ideals.
Ideals Necessary in Work.
The worthy ideals Of life. personal
and impersonal alike, are always true
and enduring, whether or no they are
always and everywhere apparent. the
worker who has lost the creative, mo-
tive power Of enthusiastic freshness
has lost the ideals that once endowed
him with this mighty source of benefi-
cial energy. And he who has lost his
ideals must somehow manage to restore
them before he can again be quite the
worker Of his earliest efforts. The
work performed without ideals to back
and support it inevitably becomes dry
and perfunctory, and entails its own
punishment. The idealless worker has
at once forfeited all possible "joy of
| the working and his own highest right
! to work.
To bring back the lost ideals try
| change of outlook, mental, physical, or
both; determination, calm logic and
reason. The ideals are just as real, as
true, as attainable as they ever were.
The past or present failure to attain
them means nothing more than chance
to try again. AS well declare the tar

lifting ideals that gave faith and power

Jewish Quarters of New York.

A few years ago there was only one
Jewish quarter in New York. Now
there are several. The original ghetto,
bounded by the East river, Catherine
street, the Bowery and Houston street,
and embracing less than one square
mile. is the largest Jewish settlement
in the world, containing 100000 inhab-
itants-over three times the number
in London's ghetto and 10000 more
than the whole number of Jews in the
British empire. This square mile is
also the most congested in the world
A large part of it contains 1859 in
habitants to the acre. In this limited
area there are 3O6 synagogues and only
twenty-five churches.
The Jewish settlement, second in i'm
portance, is, in Harlem, extending from
One Hundred to One Hundred and
Twentieth street, between Second ave-
nue. and Lenox avenue, and contains
10000 Jews. In Yorkville, the district
lying between Central park and the
East river, and extending from Seven
ty-second to Ninety-second streets, the
population is already half Jewish, and
the proportion is steadily increasing.
These two quarters are among the
pleasantest in the city for residence,
and the Jews who live there are far
superior in every way to those Of the
downtown ghetto. They are made up

Russia's Civic Forces.

That the Russians have no genius foI
home politics is apparent to the world
and Is admitted by the people them
selves. Born and bred Americans are
puzzled at the spectacle Of modern
ambitious and, in the main, progressive
power wholly lacking in stable social
element that can be counted upon In
a government crisis. The reason Is
that there is no cohesion in the popu.
lace. The freed serfs are, on the whole,
only loWly, cropping peasantry. The
nobility and gentry, despoiled of serf
labor, remain mobiles and gentlemen
living by debt, corruption and govern
ment Office.
Between the two extremes Of Rus
sian society-the peasant class and the
nobility there is a third, or middling,
class not so numerous by far as the
others and, worse than all, for civic
purposes, wholly unorganized and
without common interest or impulse
to stimulate unity in action. Within
the borders OF Russia proper there are
over 100 different nationalities and
about forty languages. The Russifca-
ton of the mass is slow process, es-
pecially as the main force working to
this end is at the very top the autoc
racy-and relies upon edicts rather than
education, example and leadership. The
Germans, Poles and Firms, all very in
telligent and capable agents for prog
ress, are the ones who cling most tena-
ciously to racial aloofness
In the German population Of the
cars realm are many professional
men, students, high class mechanics
and artisans. Whenever they affiliate
with the Russians it is for revolution
airy rather than for social development.
The moment that the more progressive
workingmen get lift by government
concessions they become revolutionists
and follow the leadership Of the I'M
derground press Of Geneva and Paris.
One loyal Russian element there is
Of the middle class-that would at this
date be power in national as it is, to
a limited extent, in local politics but
for the bar which has for generations
rested upon public discussion and or
ganization. This element is not nu-
merous, but is by natural position
formidable. 1t comprises a class of
rural people who up to 1916 had the
rank and privileges of a lesser nobility.
In 1916 the czar reduced the members
Of this class to the rank Of peasants in
the matter Of privileges. Naturally
they have the old yearnings and am
billions. In all Russia there are ele-
ments which, fused into a body, would
form a strong civic force to cooperate
with progressive ministry. Clubs
there are, associations and unions, but
the law stamps out all attempts at fed

The fact that the man Wren, MUIR
dered at Trevor, was poor and with
out friends in this county, should only
be an added incentive to the authori-
ties to run down his s1ayers. Murder
trials are proverbia11y expensive, and
unless some member of the gang con-
cerned in the killing loses his nerve
and confesses, it is going to cost the
county a lot of money to search out
and convict the guilty party, but it
must be done no matter what it costs.
For the sake of the good name of the
county we cannot afford to have men
murdered here without running down
and furnishing their s1ayers, and any
expenses incurred by the authorities
IN this case will be cheerfu11y paid by
the people. This county is rich
enough to put the law upon every
criminal within its borders, no matter
what it costs.
