Viscount Hayashi, who has just
been made minister of foreign affairs
in the Japanese cabinet, is a states
man of the flowery kingdom who has
achieved notable triumphs in diplo-
macy, and who will in his new ad-
vanced position, come much into con-
tact with the United States and the
other nations of the world.
Viscount Hayashi is only Sc years
1850, at Sakura, little town about
80 miles northeast of Toxic. His IA
Their is DR.. Taizen Sato, a prominent
Dutch scholar, who was physician to
Baron Sakura. To understand the cir
cumstances under which Hayashi was
brought up it will be necessary to re-
view the part played by Dutch schol-
ars under the old regime in Japan.
After Iyemitsu Tokugawa closed the
doors of Japan against European coun-
tries in 1887 the only means of COM
municating with the outside world
was through Deshima, little island
in front of Nagasaki. Here few
Dutch traders and scholars were al
lowed to stay. Through these men,
however, Japan is under obligation to
Holland for instruction in engineer
ing, mining, astronomy and medicine.
DR.. Kaempfer, for instance, stayed
in Deshima for two years (1690-169D
instructing Katsurakawa, the first
Japanese who practiced medicine at
| ter the western fashion. Later DR..

have seen Us one with the short
sleeves with collar Of either the high
flap rundown type or with the low
collar turning away from the throat.
The latter, although it looks tempt
ingly comfortable for hot weather, can
be worn by few women past their
youth. With the high collar, however,
the waist becomes practical for any
one who can wear shirt waist at all,
and though the idea of a short sleeve
tailored waist strikes one at first as
inconguous, the actual thing is really
very attractive.
AS to frocks, soft Silks. radiums,
foulards, etc., are in favor. The Pc
king stripe radiums are very popular,
and there are many charming small
designs in the new foulards, combin-
ing shadow stripes and dots with
printed and broche figures in one har-
monious shadow.
Lace enters into the trimming CT al
most all of these frocks, and new ef-
lace and the use of silk bands or
motifs applied over this lace, or by
the use of soutache braiding over in
set lace.

it's course and is useful all around

The gowns shown in our Illustration
are of white alpaca and lowered mus.
lin. The first of white alpaca is trim
med with stitched bands Of alpaca,
held by circles. The short coat shows
shirt Of blue and white batiste,
while the hat is of the Punchinello or
der in pale blue, with rosettes of blue
on either side.
The lowered muslin has full skirt
trimmed on the hem with alternate
founces of lace and muslin. A lace
collar outlines the muslin bodice and
displays fine lawn chemisette. The

Frenchman Persistent, But Doubtful,

A young northern woman once went
out to visit the famous old chapel and
cemetery of St. Roch, near New Or
leans The eccentric old Frenchman
in charge was delighted to show her

Styles for the Boys and Girls

Fashion Is turning her attention to
children's garments, and importations
in this direction show distinct and
separate influences forlthe two sexes.
For boys, English styles are eminent
" the thing, while for maids, hats,
coats and gowns must express the
Partisan touch. Even with garments
made in this country, London's taste
stamps the boy thing, and smart
mammas will spend much time in
choosing the correct English and
Scotch textures, which are first choice
everywhere for masculine wear:
For the younger boy the linen col
lar Is a rundown Elton affair, with
a soft silk tie. The four-in-hand is
worn by the bigger boy, whose collar
is in the various high forms.
For afternoon dress for lads of long
trouser ages some very smart suits
are seen in somber gray mixtures,
with which derby hats are worn.
in the new things for girls plaids
and checks take so prominent a part
that the instinct comes to discuss
only the many charming patterns In
these stylish materials, which, while
always appearing with autumn, are
likely to have a greater vogue than
ever. Along with them are seen plaid
and checked trimmings which will be
used for plain stuffs, narrow and wide
dress braids and hat ribbons in enor-
nous variety appearing among these.

Hayashi:
"He has by his kindness, his will

a fat layer of some finely granulated
substance. Then apply your micro
scopic eye, with its power of enlarg-
ing what you see by Is diameters, and
in the picture to the left we have de-
picted a portion of what you have
just seen with the normal eye. That
finely-granulated layer, we now see,
consists of about 1900 eggs Of the
common large Yellow Underlying
moth, all regularly placed, side by
side, and fitted, even, to the irregu-
larly cut edge of the leaf; and all, un-
doubtedly, laid by one insect. More
over, almost every egg in this large
batch proved to be fertile and pro-
duced a living caterpillar. Such is
the extent of the progeny of the I'm
deriving moth.
On the same elder branch, and on
almost the next leaf, is another batch
of about 200 eggs, of a larger size, but
similar in form, though of more intri-
cate design; some of which / have
shown in Illustration No. !.
The very common Vapourer moth

Of which are not thin and iridescent,
like the previous examples We have
glanced at, but thicker and Opaque,
and remind one of a porcelain pot
with a lid bearing an indentation in
it's center mo. ~. The female insect
of this species of moth Is curious from
the fact that she has no wings to fly
with, and on that account looks like
a fat grub, her large dimensions being
due to the several hundred eggs she
carries. When the caterpillar is about
to become chrysalis, it weaves first
silken web to cover it; and the fe-
male moth, in due course, crawls from
her chrysalis on to the web, and re-
mains there. Then, in some mysteri-
Gus manner, her winged mate, while
pursuing his flight, is attracted to-
wards her. She never moves from her
place on the outside of the web that
covers the cocoon, but deposits her
batch of eggs about it, and then she
dies amongst them. In the upper part
of the Illustration the female moth
will be seen depositing her eggs-both

Riotaku Maeno, of Nakatsu, and DR..
Genpaku Sugita, of DIANA, became
prominent scholars under similar cir
cumstances.
It was to these men that Japan, for
some 200 years before the reopening
of her doors, owed what knowledge
she had of the sciences and progress
of the western world. Viscount Hay
ashi's father, DR.. Sato, was one of
these men, and Viscount Hayashi's
brother, Baron Matsumoto, the first
organizer of the department of army
surgeons, was trained under them.
After he had been graduated from
the Kaiseisho, young Hayashi learned

Just another word in addition to
what was said last week as to the
rage for white. It would hardly seem
necessary to say that the woman
over 40 is as free in her use of the
white costume as the younger woman,
for one at all in touch with the
whirl of modern life has ocular dem
onstration every day of this fact, but
those who do not live in the great
cities, and do not have dressmakers
who are constantly urging the wear
Ing of clothes that grow younger and
younger, need reassuring on this
point.
When a woman gets too old for
pink, blue and MAGENTA, she rightfully
adopts white and grey for her own.
But this age is not anywhere near 40.
It comes in somewhere near So or 60.
It is only a question of time when
women everywhere will get used to
the verdict that black is necessary
for mourning and for nothing else, but
as we stated last week even in the
matter of mourning there is change
taking place and white is coming into
favor.
Wear black if you will but let it be
because you must be economical or
because you want one black gown be-
cause it is becoming. Don't say that
you do not intend to follow the FASH
ions of those giddy butterflies who
want to appear young. Don't contend
that the ways of the city are not your
ways. Don't do an old fashioned, out
of date thing simply because group
of women in your town do it. Follow
the world and not local set. - You
will find that il you are right that set
will follow you.

course these eggs are very minute,
but, with the microscope adding so
greatly to our powers of sight, we are
able to see these tiny objects. Where?
you ask. I answer: On the leaves
and stems of almost every plant that
grows; for it is, indeed, a favored
plant that is not the prey of one or
more insects in their larval or cater
pillar stage.
In one illustration we show the
egg of the handsome White Ad-
miral butterfly. Here the smell is
decorated with deep hexagonal cells,
which have spikes or pricklss placed
on their angles. These eggs are
usually placed on the honeysuckle or
;woodb1ne, generally close to edge, or
near the apex, of the leaves.
The Silver-washed Fritillary, one of
the largest and most beautiful of Brit
tsh butterflies, also deposits an inter-
esting form of egg and this is most
frequently laid on the leaves of the
sweet violet, or the unscented dog
violet.

many other butterflies and find them
equally attractive, but, as we must
glance at the ova of other insects, we
will turn now to moths; and here, on

example. But, first, I want you to
