Inspection OF MEATS


Ha and New ZeaIa11d and the Cattle raisera
OF Argentine have all made az much capital
as they could out Of the discussion. It Is
said that the sales Of the meat trust to
foreign customers. have fallen on 50 per
cent since the agitation began. The Japan

days, to have cancelled one order for meat
placed In ChicaGo. the largest Individual
order for meat ever given anywhere.
It 10 impossible for the packers to make
much Of an open fight against the adoption
Of the proposed measure. But It Is esti-
mated that the inspection will cost about
$2o0o000 annually, SO that they are not
anxious to pay the cost themselves. 1t is
well understood by every one. and has been
cynically mentioned by both sides In the
controversy, that the packers will never
pay this bill themselves: that they will pass
1t on to the consumer. But II they can put

spring.
Last summer 7 went with some
friends to Luna park, anu, much To my
aStonishmcnt, found an exhibit OF in
cubation being made by Il poultry and
supply company.
There were dozens or machines, in
which they showed every stage of &C.
velopment from the first TO the last
day of Matching; but the greatest ca
ture of interest TO me was Feathers

brooder. surrounded by little chicks.
which she mothercd as if they We're
kittens.
II was n charmingly novel sight to
watch those little, fluffy yellow balls
cuddling up to puss for warmth and
protection. l made inquiries, and
found that Feathers had been given to
the manager as a very tiny kitten
really too young to be taken from it's
mother: and to keep the mite warm
at night, he put it into a brooder with
some chicks, knowing that it could not
hurt them while so young.
KITTY must nave liked the heat OF
the brooder and the Compdnionship OF
the other babes, even though they were
not of her own species, for after a time
she would cry and appear unhappy
when taken out, until it became a Gus
tom to put her into whichever brooder
contained the youngest chicks. Now
she is 2 years old, and considers each
new hatch OF babies from the incubator
her special charge.

New Works. Fire FIGHTERS.

from IHe American NASdZlut.
1t is not a fire brigade that takes prizes
at tournaments. The men look understood
and insignificant on parade. Their appar-
atus is not the most modern in the world.
And they do not attack a blaze after
their officers and making ar exhibition
drill of taking their hose out OF a wagon.
as the German military companies do. But
in ability to handle dangerous fires. In
daring. endurance and resourcefulness
there does not seem to be a fire force to
equal them.
And the reasons for this are simple.
The fire department of greater New York
nov employing 1868 men-is the largest
and busiest in the world; and IL has the
largest fires to fight.
The houses on Manhattan Island are so
crowded together that in the tenement
district of the Tenth ward, for example,
there are 400, 900 persons living on a square
mile: the blocks are rabbit warrens done
in brick; and the fremen cannot isolate a
blaze I'm these and fight it from ladders,
through windows, from the street, after
the easier methods of the firemen in less
congested cities. They must fight. from
the inside out" as they explain. They
must close with their enemy and sweep IL
before them. up the stairs. out the win
dows and through the roof. 1t follows
that the men must needs be physically per-
feet, able to endure heat and suffocation,
TO "eat smoke" as they say, TO be regular
~saiamanders."

A M lsfortune.

Julian Story. the successful painter, was
talking at a dinner party in Philadelphia
about sympathy. He said:

OF putting ourselves in another persons

we can not escape from being extremely
disagreeaole.

really shrinks from taking a man into
the kitchen" One girl that l know of
stayed nine years in q family where the
work was hard n the conditions real
ly unpleasant, just because she had the
use of a little sitting room, pleasantly
furnished and provided with magazines,
on n or two evenings a week, when
she could have callers.
But that's an impossibility," says
the housewife, Il haven't the room to
spare Well, where there is a will
there is a way, and this is the way
adopted by one lady who made up her
mind that her two maids were as fully
entitled To home life as she herself. She
turns the kitchen into n sitting room.
AS soon as the dinner dishes are
washed a big, soft rug is spread on
the bare floor, a Japanese screen hides
the stove, n a smaller screen goes up
in front of the sink. A cheerful table
cover and q shaded lamp give an air
of comfort to the kitchen table, and w
rocking chairs and the magazines Of
the last month, brought in from the
library, add the finishing touch to a
really comfortable little parlor that
means home" to the girls-a home
where the employer never penetrates in
the evening, and where friends ire al
ways welcome.
Il don't believe In it at ALL" says the
housewife; girls have enough privi-
leges as ii Is. We pay them high wages
in everything" Yes, we do pay them
high wages. But is money everything
to women? Is ii not in this case the
price we have to pay for maintaining
an industry that offers disadvantages to
the workers.

Japanese Work for Philadelphia Gen.
tenniaI Still Shows Perfection.
From the PhiIadeIphId Record.

FROM the Inlidueipuld IkeCOiu.
If the Japanese peace ENJOYS rad
passed through this city on their way
to the Pacific coast and had stopped
for a few minutes at East Pen juno
ton. on the Reading railway, they
could have seen the first specimen of
oriental carpentering as exemplifed by
the Japanese in this country and now
used as offices.
When the Centennial exposition dis
covered Philadelphia the Japanese en-
braced the opportunity to introduce
themselves into favorable notice Of the
occident, and the building was un-
doubtedly the first specimen of Japa-
nese carpentering n architecture
seen in this country.
1t was to demonstrate TO the western
world how a solid and substantial
building could be erected without the
use of nails that the government of
japan caused these buildings To be
erected on the grounds of the Centen-
NAL and sent over a force of native
carpenters for that purpose.
The years that have passed since
that time have left their marks on the
structure, but to this day the perfect
Joints, the mathematical accuracy with
which everything is cut and dovetailed
together, arouse the envy n admira-
ton Of native carpenters. The dove
failing is so marvellous, the innumer-
able pieces of timber. the joists, cross
pieces, braces, ornamental woodwork
are so perfectly adjusted and so tight
ly interlocked that when the buildings
were removed from P~ennsburg on the
Perkiomen railroad to East Penn juno
ton the larger one, in order TO allow
it's passage through the tunnel at Vera
Cruz, had to be sawed in two, as it
was found to be practically impossible
to take it apart without tearing it TO
pieces.
Some years a party of Japanese
while travelling through this section OF
the country inspecting the various steel
and iron works, heard of these two
buildings and their history. 1t devel-
oped hat a brother of one of the party
had assisted in their erection. and SO
anxious were these Japanese. all of
them distinguished men in their own
country, that they Cancelled other ell

and inspect the first buildings erected
by japanese artisans in this country.
One of the Japanese said hat in their
construction the carpenters took no
measurements but depended altogeth-
er upon their eyes In making the joints
