dollar worship among US, but it
means that the public conscience has
become SO aroused as to prevent the
accumulation of otner fortunes by
such means as John D. Rockefeller
has used, declares the Progressive
Farmer.
What you can produce best On your
farm is the important question to you.
The cost of the food you grow can
not always be estimated by what
your time is worth at good wages, for
all farmers could not get pay for their
time in this way, if they did not grow
forage crops, says Prof. w. H. Jor-
dan.
Importation at this port s5O05,-
goo. or about 40 per cent greater IN
the first quarter of this year than In
the corresponding portions OF the
year before. The most gratifying fea-
ture of this gain was that a great
part of it consisted of wool and goat
skins, the raw materials of two OF
our greatest industries, remarks the
Philadelphia Record.
Naturally, when jiu jitsu is once
common property, the policeman and
the soldier and the citizen, too, must
become acquainted with its princi-
pies, says the Argonaut. The thug
and the criminal never hesitate to
catch up with what seems of some
use to them. 1t is beyond a doubt
that the worst class of offenders
against the States peace have al
ready learned some of the tricks OF
this new Oriental art.
Commenting on the revolution, The
Iron Age expresses the opinion that
too much attention has been given
to the development of metal adapted
to extreme speeds, and not enough
to the production of steel suited TO
a more moderate one. 1t may safely
be assumed that of all the tool ma
chinery on the worlds market not
two per cent is yet designed for ac-
tual high speed working.
Let the child alone" said the Rev.
Merle st. Croix Wright to the New
York City Mothers Club. Children
get licked and whipped and rounded
into shape among other children.
They get independence in this way,
and that is really the experience OF
the world" Revolutionary doctrine,
but much good sense IN it, comments
the New York World.
The Japanese influence is being
felt over the Tar East. Recently they
established a japanese museum at

A brisk daily walk, or a ride on
horseback, beats any more elaborate
forms of physical exercise for sim
plicity combined with efficiency. In
walking, especially if the ground IS
somewhat undulating, a very large
number of muscles are brought into
natural and easy play, sufficient, at
any rate. to stimulate the circulation,
which in its turn compels full expan-
sion of the lungs and due aeration OF
the blood. The professional or busl-
ness man requires no more than this
TO keep him fit for his duties, provld-
ed he follows the ordinary rules OF
health in respect of bathing, eating,
drinking and clothing. If he is af-
fiicted with a sluggish liver, indiges-
ton or inactivity of the alimentary
canal as whole, man may derive
more benefit to health on horseback;
but that is really a curative form OF
exercise, concludes the London
Chronicle.
