Such was the statement of Ser

what proved for the reporter of a San
francisco paper a very interesting
and instructive interview. For sixteen
years the sergeant has been a soldier
in Uncle Sans employ. Eleven OF
those years were spent in active ser

has passed through a series of ex-

lay claim to.
At San Francisco during the peril

would quail, as though IL were sport

same fatalism that found home with

runs in the veins of the Jap. To fight
with him as fight to death He will
not surrender while the heart throbs

The Congress of Nations.

When the reporter asked, Sergeant,
what was, in your mind, the greatest
war you have been participant in?''
ne promptly replied, THE uprising OF
the Boxers. l can never forget that
war; grand in that the nations of the
world gathered there about the Chin
csc wall, around which clings an an
tiquity of centuries, and after weeks
of the most strenuous siege recorded
in history took the great Celestial
capital Neither will forget the little
brown man who with the American
troops made a simultaneous entry In
to the inner city through a different
opening in the great stone wall. The
Japs were by far the best soldiers of
all the allied forces gathered around
Pekin Such bravery as theirs one
seldom sees and such soldiers as they
were could be found in no other army
gathered there save in the troops of
Uncle Sam. The Jap is self-relianI
fatalist in philosophy, an innovator
in war and the proudest little man on
earth. They say pride is always a
falling with small people and such
seems to be the case here"

Jap Self Reliant.

How was their self-reliance
shown?" interrupted the reporter.
Il never saw cooler rats under fire
than they were. Every man acted for
himself. With the Jap one man doesn't
think for hundred, as is the case in
the Russian army, but every man III
the army knows his place and knows
his gun and unlike Indian races ne
needs no regiment of white men be-
hind him to make him do his duty.
Their self-reliance was also shown
in the way they did their transporta-
ton work and the method in which
they handled telegraph service. The
Jap method of handling their baggage
is peculiar to them. They have thou
ands of little carts half the size OF
the ordinary wagon and they also
have thousands of little horses to pull
them. When the army prepares to
move the carts are arrayed each with
a man at the head of team. The
baggage is then loaded and the Jap

NOVEL FIRE SCREEN
MADE WITH AID OF SMALL
CLOTHES HORSE.
White Enamel the Foundation Over
Which Decorations Were Made
Cream-colored Satin Can Be
Used Effectively.

The accompanying sketch repre-
sents dainty little fire screen that
was made with the aid of a small
clothes-horse. A two-fold horse
standing about three feet in height
may, with little trouble, be trans.
formed into most decorative and
useful article of furniture.
The horse from which our sketch
was made had been painted all over
with white enamel, and brass balls
screwed into the top of each upright
piece of wood. Stretched tightly over
the side bars were two pieces of
cream-colored satin, on which had
been embroidered, in gold silk, five
empire wreaths-a large one in the
center and small wreaths at each
corner.
This is only one way in which one
of these useful little screens can be
made; but the horse, after once hav-
ing been painted and ornamented with
the little brass balls, lends itself to
decoration in many ways. Darker
colors may, perhaps, be chosen, and
the woodwork painted to match the
color of the wall paper of the room
in which it is intended to be used

PURIFIED LIFE INSURANCE.
Benefits from New Law, Which Re.
mains Substantially Unchanged.

Through the influence of Gov.
Hughes, the New York Legislature de-
:ided to make no radical changes in
the new insurance law. 1t was pointed
out by Gov Hughes that the New York
law has already accomplished wide
spread reforms, with proportionate
benefits to policyholders, and that it
should be given a thorough trial be-
fore any amendments were seriously
considered. 1t is estimated that the
cost of the mismanagement of the past
did not average more than 20 cents to
each policyholder, while the benefits
to present and future policyholders
will amount to many times more and
be cumulative besides. The speed
craze of the big companies and the ex-
cessive cost of securing new business
was the most extravagant evil of the
old arrangements. Under the new
regime the cost of new business has
already been greatly reduced, along
with other economies.
The showing made by the Equitable
Life Assurance Society in it's report
for 1906 was strong argument
against meddling with the new law.
In the Equitable alone there was a
saving of over $4,000, 900 in expenses.
besides an increase in the income
from the Society's assets amounting
to as much more. The ratios of the
Equitable's total expenses to its total
income was 1929 in 1904, 1882 in
1905, and only 14.4S%o in 1906. The
dividends paid to Equitable policy.
holders in 1906 amounted to s7,2S9, 734,
which was an increase of more than

While the Equitable made a better
showing than any other big company,

E MERRI
To Remove Lines.

The takers wrinkles commence in
and near the lower cheek and run
down under the chin from side to
side. The straight up-and-down lines
furrowed in the brow denote sternness
and sharpness. Diagonal lines, criss.
crossed in the middle of the brow,
mean small frets and worries. The
remedy for wrinkles is found in a
cheerful disposition, watchfulness
over ones own face that it doesn't
crinkle into plaitings and in gentle
massage with good skin food. 1t is
the manipulation of the skin as much
as the cosmetic itself that banishes
the lines. Expert facial specialists
who massage the face and use cleo
tricity do much toward blotting out
lines. The whole process is rejuve-
mating and stimulating. Outdoor ex-
ercise, restful, refreshing sleep and
nutritious food are essential in the
treatment of wrinkles.
