Japanese in the Wool Market.

japanese enterprise in various man
ufacturing industries is being felt in
the Japanese markets by British and
German traders. Ernest L. Harris, COM
lneretal agent at Eibenstock, Germany,
writes On this subject:
''The products Of Japan's industries
are gradually forcing themselves into
various markets Of the world where
their competition is being keenly felt
by English and German traders. Japa-
nese ingenuity and industry are begin
ming to exert an influence to such an
extent that their export IS are increas-
ing, while at the same time the mar
kets in Japan are passing more and
more into the hands Of home ma1utac-
turers. This is causing reduction o.
imports. 1t has long been thought that
the Japanese were masters of the art OF
imitation, but it is now generally ad-
mitted the world over that they also
possess powers Of great initiative.
"a recent report of the British consul
at Kobe records the fact that the i'm
port Of cotton yarns shows a big de-
crease, due to the increased growth OF
the Japanese industry, which Is gradu-
ally but surely ousting Lancashire
coarse cottons from the Japanese mar
ket. Among woolen manufacturers the
outlook Tor imported goods is not very
bright. The manufacture of fiannels in
Osaka has improved to such an extent
that imports of this article have fallen
off considerably. Japanese manufac-
turers today are producing the cheap
est kind of cotton underwear, socks,
to'et soaps and lamps. The indigo and
tobacco trades are also rapidly passing
into japanese hands"

Kaiser to Suppress Gambling,

Drastic police action is, on the initia-
tive of the kaiser, being taken against
the gambling clubs of the German. cap
ital, owing to the numerous scandals
OF recent years. The 1900 Club is espe-
cially the object of suspicion. 1t cost
$4,000 to build, another 100000 was
spent in equipment, and the clubs CON-
mission on the stakes changing hands
amounts to $4,000 a month. AS this
commission is small, the sum reveals
that the money changing hands in the
club in year must be reckoned at
hundreds of thousands Of pounds. "A
systematic inquiry has been instituted
into the affairs Of this and other clubs,
the principal points raised being: Has
any member lost his fortune by gam
bling? Are members suspected Of be-
ing professional gamblers? Do guests
take part in gambling?-The London

Feathers on Hire.

Ostrich plumes are as much of ne
cesisty to the London coster girl on
her outings as are the pearl buttons to
her masculine companion, and the big
trimmed hats with their dropping
feathers are familiar in all gatherings
Of this class. Many of the girls can
not afford to keep their money tied up
in useless plumes, and there thrives
brisk industry in the hiring Of these
feathers. The loan Of single plume

to be returned promptly the next

trade with young women who wish to
adorn themselves for an outing.-Lon-

Customs In China.

China, as seen with our eyes, Is gro
tesuue. She is the antipodes Of all the
rest of the world. She seems the up
side down of everything. The needle
In her compass points to the south,
she says west north instead OF north
west. s
She enjoys her fireworks in the day
time: her ladies use WheelDarroWs
when they ale making calls; they drive
COWS instead of horses; the necks OF
their prisoners are put in the stocks;
their surname comes first, as Roosevelt
Theodore; they mount their horses
from the right side; the old men hy
kites, while the small boys sit demure-
ly and watch them; they keep on their
hats as q sign Of respect; their GRIM
son visiting cards must be a burden to
them If they do much calling, as they
are four feet long and about two wide;
their boats are drawn by men. their
carriages by sails; they never drink
milk and their mourning color is white
or pale blue.
Their young women, no matter now
beautiful they may be, according TO
Chinese ideas, are slaves, while the old
mother of grown sons and the wrinkled
grar dmothers are queens, and the most
respected and beloved members OF the
household. Even the empercr's moth
er ranks higher than he does. When q
son is fortunate enough to receive an
honorable decoration. he brings it to
his mother. who wears it for him.

In Printinu a NeWscaper.

In how short a time q tree can be
converted into a newspaper was tried
recently. At 1885 a. NJ. three trees
were felled ndgtakon to nearby pa
per factory. BY 9:34 the first sheet OF
paper issued from the machines. The
printing works of the nearest newspa-
per were about two miles distant. The
paper was carried there in motor ca-
at full speed, the presses set to work
and at exactly 10 a. N. the newspaper
was ready to be printed. The whole
process from the forest to the reader
thus only occupied the space Of two
hours and twenty-five minutes.

Do not hypnotize yourself with the
idea that you are being kept down. Do
not talk such nonsense. Nobody OF
any sense would believe it. People will
only laugh at you. Only one thing is
keeping you down, and that is your
self. There is probably some trouble
somewhere with you. OF course, there
are employers who are unjust to their
help; there are instances in which en-
ployes are kept back when they should
be advanced; but, as rule, this is only
Temporary, and they usually find their
level somewhere-Success Magazine.
