KNOW RULES OF HEALTH.
Japanese Are Showing the World Their Superiority in the Attain
 ment of Physical Excellence.

Just now, while the military or0wess and general staying pow ar of the Japanese are claiming tue attention and respect of the civilized world, it IS of great inter- 4st, says Youths Companion, to aote the claims made, by those who know best, as to their ad Sanced attitude toward the whole question of hygiene and physical development. We of the west are all too apt to take it for granted that we stand i'll the advanced guard of all evolution, and il has become the custom of late years to anlighten the laity by word and pen on their duty to their phy- siques. Health is the fashion, and it's rules are published broadcast. Now we are told that in Japan health is not only the fashiOn-it is the universal habit. The Japan ese people not only know the rules that govern it, but all classes un- tiringly practice them.
 They are the same old rules we have them all at our tongues ends-breathe deeply and slowly of fresh air, bathe regularly, eat moderately, drink plenty of fresh water. We all know them, we all respect them, but most of us ig- nore them, except by fits and starts.
 With the Japanese the case is different. They are naturally an abstemious people and not great meat-eaters. They have always laid great stress on the value of large quantities of pure water to flush the system and keep the kid neys in good condition, and they are probably the most inyeterate bathers in the world. As to their muscular development and con- trol, they are famous, and last, but not least, they place great weight on the importance of cultivating and practicing all the time the fundamental principles of hy. giene.
 They are today pitted against huge and powerful nation, and are winning victory after victory over their adversaries. not because they outnumber them, not because they are bigger, but largely be- cause their bodies are trained to endurance and their minds to pa. tience and foresight.
 The western nations are begin. ming to learn the lesson they teach ito practice with patient per sistence those laws of health that have been taught so often. The jiu-jitsu, the system of body-train- ing practiced by the Japanese for centuries, is the foundation of many modern treatises on physical culture.

MRS. CHURCH DIES THE SUNDAY DlNNERI|
CANNED TOMATOES ARE HIGH
THIS WINTER BECAUSE OF
SMALL "PAcK"
Good Selection Of Fresh Vegetables In
the Local Markets to Choose Menu
From The General Market, Whole
sale and Retail.

1t didn't seem much like spHng the
first part of this week, but yesterday
one might almost fancy that the faint
perfume of the spring flowers filled the
air and that the song of the robin came
softly from the trees.
But If there Is taste of spring in
the air. there is more than a mere sug-
gestlon Of spring eatables in the local
market. Why. early in the week there
were even new potatoes in the market.
These We're imported from one of the
West Indian islands. The selection is
really Quite large for this time Of year.
There are no fresh tomatoes in
market here and the canned variety is
higher than usual. Some of the retail
ers, who were SO fortunate as to lay
in an early supply are selling the vege-
table at about the same price as last
year. Others, those who have had to
buy lately, are not. The cause Of the
steepness in the price of the tomato
this year is the unusually short pack"
Good varieties are selling in the mar
ket at 10 and 15 cents per can.
Butter continues high in price. The
best creamery is selling at 32h cents
per pound, while the best country pro-
duct brings 25 cents per pound.
The prices quoted this morning on
some of the vegetables in the local
markets are: Celery, three lunches
for 25 cents, lettuce, leaf, s cents per
bunch, and head 15 cents per head:
cabbage, 2 cents per pound; cauli-
flower 20 to 80 cents per head; pota-
toes, common, rs cents per bushel;
Colorado, 81 per bushel; sweet pota-
toes, 30 cents per peck, and parsnips,
rs cents per peck.
Though good fruit generally Is bring
ing prices above the average for this
time OF the year on account of the
scarcity in some varieties, the prices
quoted are not beyond the reach Of the
ordinary purchaser. Apples sell for
from 40 to Is cents per peck. Oranges
from 25 to 40 cents per dozen and ba-
nanas 20 to Is cents per dozen. Dates
retail at 10 cents pound, or three
pounds for two bits.
Epns Drop.
The packers price on eggs drops 2
cents this morning. Other prices in
the local wholesale markets remain
the same as yesterday.
