'JAPs TO GROW BIG.
ISLANDERS TO ADOPT A NEW.
DIETARY PLAN.
Baron Takaki Says This Method WIN
Increase Stature-Expects Future
Men to Be Large as Cauca-
stans-Tells of Navy Tests.

Ph,ladelphia.-The Japanese Of the
future are to be Of the normal stature
OF the Caucasian race, according to
Baron TakaA. surgeon general of ia
pan. The baron declares this will be
brought about by the Japanese eating
the proper kind of food.
Baron Takaki In lecture at the
University of Pennsylvania said 1t was
a national humiliation that the Jap
anese were SO small physically. He
said If in the centuries past the Jap
anese had eaten food which makes mus
Gle, bone and sinsw they would be Of
normal height.
Inc baron denied that the Japanese
were OF normal size centuries ago. He
said they have been dwarfed and di-
minutive for ages.
DR.. Takaki quoted statistics of the
Japanese army and navy to prove that
by giving the men proper diet he has
brought them nearer the standard
weight and size Of the men of the Eng
lish and American navies. He also de-
clares that many diseases common in
Japan have been almost wiped out by
the same method. DR.. Takaki has
made 1t his lifework to find method
by which the size of the Japanese race
can be increased.
within a few generations am sure
the Japanese race will be of normal
size," he said. Zone Of the greatest hui
miliations of our life is that we are so
small. The Caucasian race is normal in
size, and that is what we want to be.
That is what we will be within short
time If the people of my race follow
my directions.
"The trouble is In the food the Jap
anese race has been eating for CEN
turies We have not been living on
the kind Of food which goes to the max
ing of muscle, bone and sinew. Other
nations have had proper food and are
normal in height. The Japanese now
will follow the example of the English
man and the American.
Il made test on our men Of thenav
found that they did not have enough
food and did not have the right kind of
food. feed our men Of the ships the
same rations as that given in the Amer
lean navy, with additions of my own.
What was the result? Within year
there was great change. The men
seemed to expand and become taller.
after three years Of proper feeding
the men now are much nearer the
standard of the men Of the American
navy and army. There was less disease
and fewer deaths in that time than ever
before. We can look forward to the
time when we shall be equal in size to
the Caucasian. The emperor has prom
ised to join hands and help in the work.
"The thing is past the experimental
stage. It is now a certainty. We are
persevering people and future genera
tions will find the Japanese brother hia
equal in size and strength. Young peo-
pie Of the future will read only IN his
tories that the Japanese were one time
a diminutive race. The lesson will be
that to keep from degenerating phys
ically the nation must be given proper
food"

and your duties will be explained to
you by one Of the officers. This after
noon, I believe, you are to accompany
me on my visit to the fortress which I

spectfully said. He was thinking of
Miss Calhoun, an American girl, al
though he called her 'your highness."

Certainly" she replied. Els man
ner was more deferentiai than she had
ever known it to be, but he threw a
bomb into her fine composure with his
next remark. He addressed her In the
Graustark language:

ne to address you In English7"
Beverly's face turned bit red, and
her eyes wayered, By wonderful ef-
fort she retained her self control, STAN
mering ever SO family when she said
in English:
Il wish you would speak English"
unwithngiy giving answer to his ques-
ton, " shall insist upon that. Your
English = too good to be spoiled"
Then he made bold test, his first
having failed. He spoke once more In
the native tongue. this time softly and
earnestly.
"As you wish. your highness, but
think It ia a most ridiculous practice"
he said. and his heart lost none of its
courage Beverly looked at him almost
pathetcally. She knew that behind
the curtain two young women were en-

told her that they were sitting their

kerchiefs.
"That will DO, sir" she managed to
say firmly. "Its very nice Of you, but
after this pay your homage in English"
she went On, taking long chance on
bis remark. It must have been COM
plimentary, she reasoned. As for Bal

his lips, and his eyes were twinkling as

DURING HOLY PILGRIMAGE,
Sacred Square Of Mecca Presents, a
Picturesque and Impress
sive Sight.

Like gigantic catafalque, somber.
shrouded in mystery, the Kaaba rises
out of the seething sea of white garbed
humanity that crowds the grea: sacred
square Of Mesa, says Everybody's
Magazine. It's door is covered with
plates of solid silver, studded with sill
yer nails. From the exterior of the
roof, above stone marking the sepul-
cher of Ishmael, which lies at the base
of the narthern wall, there projects a
horizontal, semi-circular rain spout,
five yards long, "a inches wide, made
of massive gold. Within, the roof is
supported by three columns of aloe
wood; the walls are hung with red vel
vet alternating with white squares in
which are written in Arabic the words.
"Allah-Jal-Jelalah," Praise to God the
The building is packed
with pilgrims, praying, weeping, beside
themselves in an ecstasy of passionate
devotion. Mingled with their voices
there rises from outside NE chant of
the Talbih, the Song of the Winding
Sheet, which every pilgrim must sing
on entering the Mecca, on donning the
sacred hiram, on entering the haram
and on starting for Nina, the Valley OF
Desire, and Arafat, the Mountain OF
Compassion.
