Tea on the Down Grade.

Tea drinkers are finding scant -
couragement in report recently
made by a large tea exporting house
in Yokohama to its American Gus
toners Incidentally it indicates that
the United States is not alone in fac
ing increased cost of living. The re-
port says. Owing to the rapid in
creasing cost OF living in Japan labor
costs more, and in consequence cul-
tivation of the tea gardens is less
generous and extensive than formerly.
and less care and skill are expended
in picking and curing the leaf. Hence
the average quality of the teas now
offered for sale is below that OF sea-
sons prior to the war. and for the
same reasons we are not likely in tho
future to see any reversion to the
excellence OF former years."-NeW

Starch were used. In order to get the

beauty and fneness OF the fabric Is
hidden behind a paste OF varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear

can be entirely overcome by using De-

ly'' is a foreman of a logging camp,
.'choker'' Is a moose of wire rope. Of
course you say. But what is goose

Briton's Love for Ruling Class


The presence of q personal sovereign is
the outward and visible sign that caste
is still supreme in the British empire. The
external abuses of the feudal system have
been abolished in Great Britain. one by
one. until those that still linger are almost
harmless. but the inner spirit survives to
this late day, and even now its manifesto
tons abundant in almost every part
Of the social structure of the British Isles.
There is still alive the fiction that the king
rules. and that the army of the empire is
his majestys army. There Is still will
ing acceptance of a titled aristocracy, and
also of upper house. the vast majority
of whose members sit there by the right of
birth only. without regard to their in
dividual merits No doubt the British peo-
pie could change these things speedily and
without violence IL they really desired to
get rid of this inheritance from feudalism.
But they have not got rid of 1t. and this is
evidence enough that they do not wish to
do so. The British see no reason to abolish
state Of affairs which the American peo-
pie look at with amazed wonder as sur
vival of the dark ages A native American
finds 1t wholly impossible to understand
the mental attitude of certain man of let
ters in London who justified his ingrained
toryism by the assertion that he simply
would not be ruled by his equals.
