Fashions in Japan.

Fashions change in Japan most rap
idly when they are the changing
badge OF wealth, and when social sta.
tus ebbs and flows and people are
known by what they wear. Among
men the fashion Of the hair which
had to do with the warriors head
gear has gone wholly out of style
The man OF official rank wears his
clothes In Foreign style as becoming
modern tasks, though he returns to
his native costume for his hours OF

is not only that certain styles belong
to certain periods or ages. but may
not be affected after some fixed data
but within the limits set by age there
are variations according to fashions

Orators Compliment to Town Called
Forth Warm Protest.

Two interesting stories are told OF
the late Gen. W H. L. Barnes. OF Cali
fornia. One concerns campaIg~
speech that the general made IN Red.
ding. Being diplomat as well as an
orator. Barnes. who had not been In
Rsdding for decade or more, sought
to say something fiattering about the
towns growth. When he reached the
filling in stage OF his speech. he said:
7 wan, to congratulate the citizens OF
Redding on The wonderful progress OF
their beautiful city when | was last
here, not many years ago, I had to put
up at ramshackle hotel. with poor
accommodation and badly cooked
food What do find to-day? A mag
nifcent caravansary with a cuisine
worthy OF a metropolis" The compli-
ment won applause, and after the
meeting was over many Of the audi
tors crowded to the platform to shake
hands with the speaker. One old fell
low, with a pioneer beard. waited pa
tien.,y for his turn When he reached
the .-gerS-.-.i ae calmly put his hands
behind him. shook his head angrily
and bltrted out. "All want to say
is that you're a white-headed old falsi-
fer. / kept that hotel"
The other story deals with the spe-
cial session OF the legislature called
to fill the vacancy caused by the
failure OF the solons OF 1899 to elect
United States senator. Barnes
wanted the honor, but the comp. omis-
prs passed him by and picked out
Thomas r. Bard of Ventura. The
night Of Bagds' election Gov Gage was
reused from his bed by a caller who
refused tc walt until morning. Gage
opened the door and there stood Gen.
Barnes. Governor" said the general
solemnly. you called this session to

cancy you have created one" And
then without another word the general
stalked away.

Victor Chaffee, formerly of this city
but at present receiver in the land
office at Williston, has something to
say concerning travel on the railroads
as it is at the present time. Mr..
Chaffee left Williston Saturday morn
ing and arrived in Grand Forks Sum
day evening. The train went so slow
that some members of the travelling
fraternity of this city amused them
selves by inventing limericks about
the different towns through which they
passed. Following is result of two
efforts:
There was dear angel from Crazy,
Who looked anything but sweet fairy,
With horrible smile,
Could be seen for mile,
And her head-gosh dinged-but was
hairy.
There was young grille from Knox
With a shape like a furniture box;
She says, Its too bad!
But then can pad,
And place my big feet in small SON."

READY FOR POULTRY SHOW
Extensive Preparations Being Made for
the Annual Poultry Exhibition to
be Held in Fargo.

The officers of the North Dakota
Poultry association are making extern
siye preparations for the thirteenth an
nual exhibition which will be given IN
Fargo next week during the annual
convention OF the Tri-State Grain and
Stock Growers association. Arrange
ments are being made to accommodate
a large number of exhibitors Of fine
poultry this year, and the management
expects that there will be over GOO
birds on exhibition during the week.
An agreement has been reached by the
officers of the association and the ex-
press companies whereby the latter
will make special rate to exhibitors
on all birds sent to the show. There
are nine sweepstake cups which are
to be competed for by members of the
association, and the cups must be won
three times by an exhibitor before they
become his property.
The officers of the association are:
President, S. F. Crabbe of Fargo; vice
president w. A. Falconer of Bismarck
secretary-treasurer, l.. D. Caniff OF
Fargo. B. B. Mauck is superintendent,
and Earnest Peterson of Harwood is

scription OF abbreviation, signs cr
characters which falsely represent the
property or character Of a product
render the same illegal, as does also
the use of any false or misleading
statement.
The principal label, when prepared,
should give: First, the name of the
substance, then the name of the man.
ufacturer or jobber. and the address
of the same, followed by statement
as to the constituents required by law
to be enumerated If such are present,
and other descriptive matter should not
Intervene. Under the national law
the size of the type on the principal
or face label should be eight points
brewer caps. Then, if the age be given
1T should be the average age of all
the constituents in their respective
proportion, and not the age of single
constituent. And in the case of whis-
kies and brandies, to be legal they
must be at least four years old.
THE coloring and coating of coffee
or Of food products renders the same
illegal, as does likewise the staining
which means the change produced by
the addition of any substance to the ex-
terror portions of foods which in any
way alters their neutral tint. AS for
example. bleaching of fruits with sui
phur, or flour with nitrous acid, or the
the oxides of nitrogen.
Under the national law the addi-
tion of preservatives to food product
must be of such nature that in its
preparation before the same is ready
for consumption the preservative must
be wholly removed and the character
of the preservative must be of such
nature that until removed the
food products are inedible. Therefore
the addition of borax or boracic acid is
goldfish renders it illegal.
"In the case of candies or confec-
tons, only harmless colors or flavors
are permissible. mineral substances OF
all kinds are specifically forbidden.
II take it, too, under the national
law, as under our state law, the use
of parafin in candy is not permissible.
Neither is the use of bleached glucose
containing sulphites. The sale of can
dies or the shipment of candies made
from such products is illegal.
"Molasses and syrups which have
been bleached by the use of zinc and
acid are illegal if these products re-
main in the syrup, and the addition
of glucose is an adulteration under
both the state and the national law.
81 take that the prime purpose Of
both the state and the national law
is to prevent the use Of any food pro-
duct of constituents which are harmful
or the substitution of cheaper or in
ferior, or of any product to be sold
under the name of another product,
and those who prepare their labels i
a way to set forth the truth with re-
gard to the character of the product
and practice no deception in such
labelling, or who do not falsify with
regard to weights or measures will
have nothing to fear under the nation /
or state law. A square deal for ali
would seem to be the underlying feat
ure of the national food and drug
law"

THIS is MY 6STH BIRTHDAY,
william A. Clark.

William A. Clark, the multi-million-
aire mine owner who is serving what
will probably be his last term in the
United States senate, was born on his
fathers farm near Connellsville, Pa,
Jan. 8, 1889. He received a common
school education and studied civil en-
cheering in local academy. In 1860
he started for the west, hoping to find
his fortune in the gold mines of Cali
fornia. After trying various places
and many pursuits, farming, mining
and merchandising, he finally accumu-
lated capital of $4,000. With this he
bought store of provisions and reach
ed the great placer bonanzas in Mad
ison county, Montana, just when the
mining boom was at it's height. He
disposed of his stock of provisions at
handsome profit and went in for min
ing in the vicinity of Butte. Though
at first not very successful, he later
struck it rich and began the accumu-
lation of the many millions he now
possesses. In 1888 Mr.. Clark entered
politics as candidate for delegate in
congress, and was defeated. In 1890
he was denied seat in the senate In
1898 he was again a candidate and was
elected. But a contest cnsucd at
Washington, and before the invcytiga-
ton was concluded Mr.. Clark reaIgncd.
In 1901 he was again elected tor tn.
term which will expire two m0ntba
hence.

Secret of Wealth.

Is thy cruise Of comfort wasting? Rise
and share it with another,
And through all the years of famine IT
shall serve thee and thy brother:
Love divine will fill thy storehouse, or
thy handful still 1enew:
Scanty fare for one will often make
royal feast for two.
For the heart grows rich in giving; all
it's wealth is living grain;
Seeds which mildew in the garner,
scattered, fill with gold the plain.
Is thy burden hard and heavy? Do thy
steps drag YEARLY?
Help to bear thy brothers burden;
God will bear both it and thee.
Numb and weary on the mountains,
wouldst thou sleep admist the
snow:
Chafe that frozen form beside thee,
and together both will glow.
Art thou stricken in life's battle?
Many wounded round thee moan.
Lavish on their wounds thy balsams,
and that balm shall heal thine
own.
Is thy heart we'll left empty? None
but God it's void can fill;
Nothing but a ceaseless fountain can
it's ceaseless longing still.
Is thy heart a living power? Self en-
twined its strength sinks low;
1t can only live in loving, and by serv-
ing love will grow.
