GRADES OF RANK IN JAPAN.
Society There 10 Divided Into Many
Separate Glasses.

A traveller Just returned from Japan
tells some things which perhaps all
the world does not know. Says he:
"Of rank, there are eight classes after
the mikado and the Ziogoon, namely
ID the princes; (2D the mobiles who
owe feudal service to the prince, or
the empire; (S) the priests; (4) the
soldiers. These four form the higher
orders and enjoy the privilege OF
wearing two swords and petticoat
trousers; 90 inferior officials and doc
tors, called respectable, allowed to
wear one sword, with the trousers:
(6) merchants and tradesmen, whose
legs may not pollute the trousers.
though by entering as dbmestics to
man of rank they may enjoy the privi-
lege of wearing one sword; these are
the only people by whom wealth can
be accumulated; % artists, artisans
and petty shop-keepers; t8) day labor
ers and peasants. Tradesmen who
work on leather, tanners. etc, are ex-
cluded from classification. They are
defiled, and may not even live with
other men; they live in villages OF
their own.

Not Too sinnle

John Simple, Ia years old, of Dads
den, Ala, is not as simple as you
might think from his name. He saw
fellow hanging around the barn and
acting in a suspicious manner, and
set big bear trap where he thought
1t would do the most good; and then
got up next morning to find that he had
bagged his game. The man had en-
tered the barn to steal one of the
horses, but put his foot into it instead.
He turned out to be noted thief, for
whom reward of $500 had been of
fered, and John Simple is going to get
the money. It's not what a boy is
named. but what he does. that counts.

mony," by Reginald Wright Kaufman,
Is an essay into the field of humor in
which this popular novelist, with his
aphorisms on Irritation, courtship and
marriage, may be truly said to have
taken rank with foremost of Ameri
can humorists. 1t is, in fact, the
cleverest book of its kind we have
read for some time. Mr.. Kaufman
declares that .'the Woman Question is,
after all, nothing but Man." yet there
IS no phase of the problem that he does
aot illuminate with the startling
searchlight of his wit. Henry Alte-

There is a German proverb which

had no other testimony to so BY than
these pious inscript ions we might al
most fancy that men and women had
arrived at such state Of perfection
that they were little less than angels.
Death, like time, is great healer of
wounds, a great soother Of passions, a
great calmer Of turbulent thoughts, ii
slayer Of enmity u He is the peace
maker par excellence, having caused
