the cause which led to it is a mat
ter of history. Cartridges creased
with cows fat were served out to

them on the ground that the COW
was a sacred animal. Almost with
out any warning the terrible massa-
ores followed, which were only
avenged at an enormous expendi-
ture of lives and money.

In the spring of that year the Aus

this they would give no reply, and

friendly and menscing action,

A STUDENT Joke.


Professor IN Panic.
Professor Elias LOOMS for many
years occupied the chair of astronO-
my at Yale and was the author of
the well known series of mathemat-
ical text books.
Professor LOOMS repeated each
year to the junior class a course Of
lectures on physics. The lectures
were illustrated by experiments,
and in one on compressed air he
explained the principle of the well
known air gun.
The students of each succeeding
class as they entered the room for
this particular lecture found on the
side of the room remote from the
platform a small target. After ex-
planning the operation of the gun
Professor LOOMS was in the habit
of landing three of its projectiles
with mathematical accuracy in the
center of the bullseye.
The professor was always APP
plauded for this feat, but his grim
face, covered by a tightly drawn
skin of parchment hue, never show
ed the slightest sign of qualification
or recognition of any kind. To him
it was apparently only a scientific
experiment to be exactly demon
strated.
One class of juniors, however,
who had learned of the immemOrial
incident from the then seniors, at
tempted a little experiment Of
their own, the subject being mathe-
matical and scientific human ma
ture.
Three puffs from the air gun, and,
although the students saw that the
bullseye was perforated as usual,
there was not a sound of applause.
Professor Loomis looked a moment
at the class in a startled way, then
at the target, and then, with a de-
gree of emotion he had never be-
fore shown, exclaimed:
didn't it hit? Didn't it hit?
Didn't it hit"
A roar of laughter, followed by
even more than the usual applause,
showed the professor that he had
not lost his mathematical accuracy.

Bringing the Time Of Day.

A certain squire had just set up
with great pains and elaborate
mathematical calculations a sun
dial in his garden and was naturally
a little proud Of it. One day, as it
so happened, being close to the gar
den, he was in doubt as to the right
time and told a boy who was with
him to run down and get him the
time from the dial. After a few
minutes the boy appeared, dragging
with him something heavy.
"Here she is, yer honor, an hard
set All was to get her up" He had
torn up the dial from its setting
and dragged it up the hill.-LOndon

THE WAYS OF Japan.
You Are Never Sure Of Privacy, Even
While Taking a Bath.

While Taking a Bath.
As one steps before the wide
open doors of the reception room
or into the court or the kitchen, as
the case may be, the host ap-
proaches and greets with a low bow,
followed by the hostess and usually
one or more of the maids, who,
kneeling, bend to the floor. The
salutations are returned, a word is
exchanged perhaps about the rooms
or the meal that is to be prepared,
and the guest seats himself on the
low porch or platform that sur
rounds the entrances and removes
his shoes or sandals, leaving them
on the ground. If one wears the
Japanese cloth shoe and straw SAN
dal, as l did some of the time, the
feet are always washed in a wooden
basin of water brought by a maid,
who comes Gathering around the
outside of the house on wooden
clogs to bring it and sets it down
before one on the ground. A little
towel is brought, too, unless one, as
usual, has this most useful of arti-
cles about his person.
Then the guest steps in, in stock
ing feet or barefoot, and, preceded
by a servant, passes through the
open rooms, often between a double
line of all the people of the house,
who are bowling to the floor. He
enters the room allotted to him and
there seats himself cross legged on
a cushion on the matted floor be-
fore tiny charcoal fire in brazier
and rests-at least pretends to rest
if he is a foreigner-until disregard
for ceremony gets the better of him
and he adopts an easier position.
Presently comes a demure or smil-
ing little maid, with rosy cheeks and
fancifully colored silk kimono, who
kneels outside and slides open the
paper door, enters, kneels and
closes it, brings tea things to the
center of the room and, neeling,
pours out a wee cup of tea to the
guest or each of the guests. This
done, she bends her forehead to the
floor and patters out, opening and
closing the door, as before. If the
guest is an honored one some dain-
ty, such as bean jelly or cakes OF
raw dough rolled in pink and
green powder, is brought with the
tea. Then the guest steps out to
the porch to wash, and as he dries
his face he looks at the little cul.
tured garden or off to the distant
valley or forest or mountain or sea.
Returning to his room, he is
most of the time alone until the
coming of the meal or, if it chances
to be afternoon or evening, until
the announcement comes that "the
bath is ready" One is never entire
ly alone. Access to the room is al,
ways free on several sides, and host
visitor or servant may come in al
any time. One becomes used tC
this and learns to like it in most
ways. There is nothing hidden. II
makes life simple and informal and
more natural. We found it a dis.
advantage sometimes when We had
too many visitors whose curiosity
got the better of them, but we al.
ways took it in good part, finding il
