Japanese Emperor's Expenses.

The Japanese Emperor's yearly ex-
pense of living is limited. For this
purpose he draws 100000 from the
rational treasury. His personal
wealth is not to be spent on his own
living, so that $3,0OOO00 is really his
salary as manager of the country. He
is required to pay out of it some
thousand employees. The Emperor's
daily fare is Japanese. He is perfect.

Of bean soup and a few other dishes.
But his dinner usually appears in
splendid style, in some twenty
courses, although he always de-
nounces it as a useless extravaganza.

cherry blossom viewing party at the
Kioskikawa botanical garden or the
chrysanthemum party at the Alaska
palace, for instance-he will not spare
any expense in preparing an elegant
European banquet.

COBRA CHARMED BY MUSIC.
Capturing Of These Reptiles is a Dan.
gerous Profession in India.

The death-dealing cobra is passion
ately fond of music, and it is through
this means that its capture is often
accomplished.
The men OF India who can effect the
capture OF these deadly reptiles must
be possessed Of remarkable Skill or
their lives are forfeited. When the
cobra takes up its abode in the neigh
borhood of a dwelling-house it is Gus
tomary to send for the professional
snake charmer One of them strikes
up a tune near the place where the
snake is supposed to be located. No
matter what the creature may be doing
it Is at once attracted by the sound
of music. 1t emerges slowly from its
hiding place and strikes an attitude
in front Of the performer. There IL
is kept engaged with the music while
the other man creeps up behind it
with a handful of dust. At n convent
ent moment, when the cobra is stand
ing motionless, this man suddenly
throws the dust over the head and
eyes Of the snake. Immediately the
cobra falls its length upon the ground
and remains there for one short sec
ond-but the second is enough With
movement like lightning the man
seizes the body of the PROSTATE SER
pent just below the head.
In great anger the cobra winds it.
self round and round the arm of its
captor, but to no purpose, for its can.
not turn its head and bite. If the
fangs are to be extracted at once the
captor presses his thumb on the
throat of the cobra and thus compels
1t to open its mouth. The fangs are
then drawn with pair of pincers. If,
however, he wishes to keep the snake
intact for the present the musician
comes to help him and forcibly un-
in a basket, all but the head, which
is firmly held by the other man. He
presses down the lid to prevent the
cobra from escaping, and suddenly
the captor thrusts the head in and
bangs the lid.
A very expert performer can cap
ture the snake single handed, though
it is highly dangerous. While playing
with one hand he throws the dust
sideways with the other, and captures
the snake with the same hand The
whole action must be like a fash oi
lightning, for a half seconds delay
or the merest bungling in throwing
the dust or catching the snake would
prove fatal to the operator.

Brain Work and Longevity.

A medical man who gave evidence
in a Chancery Division case testified
as TO the connection between brain
work and longevity in a way that
charmed the lawyers and will charm
other brain workers. One-third of the
laborers in rural districts, he is re-
ported as saying, die of brain-soften-
ing, and the average vegetative rural
laborer dies much earlier than the
hard-thinking lawyer, simply because
his brain rusts from lack of exercise.
"The use of the brain prolongs life"
There is much in this, no doubt, and
we believe that thorough statistics as
TO lunacy would astonish those who
imagine that it is the wear and tear
ID high-pressure thinking and excite
nent that more than anything else

surely, must be allowed, in the case
Of lawyers, for instance, for the fact
that the weddings are killed or
frightened off early, while in the
country air even man of poor STAN
ina and insufficiently fed can vege-
tate for a long time. Also, worry
must be reckoned with; if hard brain
exercise does not kill, chronic brain
worry will, and the two are too often

Trees In Wireless TeIenraphY.

One of the most interesting sugges-
tions made recently in connection
with wireless teegraphy is that of
Major G. o. Squier, of the United
States Army Signal Corps, who be-
lieyes that for short-distance trans
mission trees can be used as substi-
tutes for the aerial wires usually EN-
ployed. Major Squier's plan is to con,
meet the apparatus by wires to iron
nails driven in the base of the tree
from which the radiations would be
emitted. While the tree would hardly
be as satisfactory as a more perma-
nent arrangement of wires, yet in a
military campaign it might answer
tances were comparatively short.
This, of course, involves a difficulty
where the army is operating in a
country barren of trees, but here a
method of employing jointed poles or
kites or balloons to raise the wires
In connection with Major Squier's
suggestion the point has been made
that the difficulties of wireless teleg-
raphy in trasmitting messages over
land would be increased by the pres
ence of an intervening forest, and
should this be the case the operation
or wireless telegraphy may be restrict
ed greatly. Harper's Weekly.

A novel method for increasing the
usefulness of lumber has been per-
fectcd in England. The method con-
sists, in brief, in replacing the air
in wood with a solution of beet sugar
and removing the excess of water
by subsequent drying. The inventor
of the process. Mr.. Powell, attains his
object by using a large boiler in
which the timber to be treated is
placed and the beet-sugar solution
pumped in. After the air has all been
replaced by the solution the wood is
kiln dried. Examination of the wood
seems to show that the sugar is alb
sorbed into the fibre of the woody tbs
sue and is not simply held in the
intercellular spaces.
1t is claimed that timber treated in
this way is no longer porous, will not
shrink or warp, and is stronger, heav-
ier. and more durable. Moreover, it
is said that this wood is not liable to
dry rot; it is hoped that by mixing
the proper poisons with the sugar
bath the wood will be made resistant
to the attacks of fungi and insects.

THE SUPERNATURAL IN WAR.
Russians and Japs Had Great Faith

in Their Gods.
A great deal has been said about
Russian superstitution in the war in
the east, as expressed in the blessing
and forwarding to the front OF ikOns,
or sacred pictures which. by the COM
mon soldiers at least, were expected
to bring victory TO the Russian arms.
No one knows just how many Russians
with the least education believe in the
miraculous powers of these ikons-or
how many did believe in them before
the defeat Of the Russians in every en-
gagement. on sea or land. operated TO
destroy what confidence any one had
in them. But there can be no doubt
that the japanese from high to low,
have been sustained and suothed by
certain beliefs that would certainly be
regarded as superstitious in this part
OF the world.
The idea was further developed by
Admiral Togo in his message to the
mikado. He said that the spirits of
that soverelgn's imperial ancestors had
helped him in the battle. This, too, the
admiral really believed. There are no
firmer spirilualists in the world than
the Japanese, unless IL is the American
Indians, whom physically, and in many
of their customs, they much resemble.
They people the world with the spirits
of the dead After each of the great
land battles in Mauchuria the Japanese
erected altars and conducted services IN
honor of the spirits of their dead SOL
diers.--New York Mail.

Some interesting experiments in
blasting tree butts with gellinite-a
safety explosive-have recently been
carried out at Lord Leigh's Stoneleigh
Abbey estate, near Kenilworth, Eng.
land. The usual boring was made and
filled with the explosive. An electric
detonator was used, which enabled
the operator to retire under cover at
a safe distance. The butts operated
on were of various sizes and species,
but in each case the method was
found to give satisfactory results. 1t
it also claimed to combine efficiency
with economy.

Fruit TreesM y be Saved.
Prof Surfaces Method oi Destroying San
lose Scale Had Been Tried and Found
Etficacious.

Farmers and orchardists through =
out the country will be pardoned if
they shall believe that their fruit
trees can be saved ifthey are spray
ed according to the directions issued
by State Economic Zoologist Sur
face and his assistants. Prof. Sur
faces method Of destroying the San
jose scale has been tried and found
efficacious, and this is a merit
which tree growers are not slow to
appreciate. All sorts oftheories as
to how to stop the ravages of the
scale may be advanced, but the wise
orchardist will accept the plan
which he knows is practical in pre-
ference to untried suggestions. 1t
is unfortunate that there should be
any controversy over the import
ant question of combating the ac-
tivities of the San Jose scale. DR..
Croft is right in his assertion that
fumigating nursery stock will pre-
vent the spread of the scale, and
Prof. Surface has proven that the
only way in which the scale can
be removed from growing trees is
to spray them with the solution he
recommends. AS farmers are only
interested at present in having their
orchards saved they will be very
foolish if they shall refuse to accept
the remedy for scale offered to them
by Prof. Surface.

Simplicity of the Method Used Ex.
cites Surprise.
By means of governor, which does
not impair the efficiency of the engines
because it does not throttle then, the
steam supply for both engines is SO
coupled that neither will work more
rapidly than the other.
The consensus of opinion in the In
stitution of Naval Architects, where the
invention was described, is that alb
sence of vibration will be readily Sc
cured If the engines are made to run
at the same speed and in opposite
phase, no matter how much the engines
may be out of balance. The device con-
sists of set of differential bevel
wheels or balance gear arrangement,
one wheel being driven by the port en-
gine and the other by the starboard,
and these two wheels being mounted
loosely on shaft. Two pinions mesh
with both wheels and are mounted on
an axle keyed to the shaft.
AS long as the two bevel wheels re-
volve at the same speed the shaft re-
mains stationary, but if the speeds diff
fer the movement of the pinions causes
the shaft to rotate. This rotation works
an eccentric mounted on the shaft, and
the eccentric in turn actuates a small
steam valve, by means of which high
pressure steam is admitted to the low
pressure cylinder of the engine work.
