Japanese Paper.

The Japanese excel in the making of
paper from the bark of trees and shrubs.
Among the remarkable varieties are thin
rainproof paper used instead of glass for
windows, the oiled papers serving for
waterproof coverings and clothing, and the
oiled tissue for wrapping delicate articles.
The bark paper employed for meal and
grain sacks is not readily penetrated by
weevils and other insects. Most interest
ing of all, perhaps, are the tough papers
from which tobacco pouches and pipe cases
are made, these leather papers being al
most as tough as French kid, translucent
and as soft and pliable as calfskin.

A pITIFUL CASE,

In every city there are real traged- les going on all the while. Sometimes they occur almost under the eyes of those who would willingly give aid if they could know the need of it. Some times they occur within the knowledge of those who could help if they would. An example of an occurrence in New York is given here in the language of The Boston Herald, which tells us that a 14-year-old boy died in a small furnished room on Norfolk street. The doctor called to view the body said that death resulted from starvation. This boy had been attempting to sup port his mother and a baby brother by the sale of newspapers. He had been able to make at best only about forty cents a day, and his earnings were often far below that trival sum. This was no case of viciousness or drunkenness leading to the downfall of a family. The father died two weeks prior to the birth of the young child, and the entire burden of the support of this family fell on a 14- year-old boy, who probably had not the physical development of a well fed country boy of 10. Appeals had been made to a charitable organization, but this organization had not had sufi- cient time ito investigate the case" be- fore the boy died. Perhaps that was unavoidable, but in city where $10O,- 900 can be spent for a single dinner k.vy s1YIIt iona q fra !, i1 friends, 1t should not be possible for a young boy who was willing to work, and who evidently was devoted to his mother. to die of starvation.
 Dead, my lords and gentlemen" in the great city where millions of dollars are freely spent each year for idle pleasures and selfish enjoyments; dead in his young childhood. when he should just have been looking forward to a future manhood; dead, because he pre- ferred starvation for himself to suffer ing for the mother who bore him and the little brother who knew not why he should suffer from the bangs of hun ger or the icy fingers of winter; dead. while a so-called charity was getting ready to Investigate" the case.
 Is 1t not pitiful that sRch things can occur in a land of plenty? a land of churches and schools. of good men and women, and of mlllionaires and million airesses? We may be charitable enough to admit that the condition of this family was not known but it re- duires a hard stretch of the mantle of charity to believe it. It Is difficult for us to realize that a boy could dle of starvation in New York or elsewhere and no one be apprised beforehand that there was want and Restitution and suffering at hand. But, however we look at tive must shudder at such incidents end wish that they might be prevented.
