each creation has its symbolic mean
ing, and the whole gives an indescrib-
able sensation of the Oriental and the
deep-lying soul of ancient Japan.
The garden Of old Japan is set with
in gOOd-siZcd lake having an iF-
regular coast line and small pine-clad
islets are scattered here and there
after the famous scenery of the cOun-
try OF the Matsushima. On the right
hand side of the lake there is a faith
rul reproduction OF the faf-famed Miya-
jima, one of the jeweIed spots OF the
wonderful inland sea OF Japan, a sea
some 800 miles in length and from 10
TO 50 miles in width, which all who
have seen proclaim the most beautiful
spot in the world There is also an
exact reproduction of the sacred tenn
pie Of Kinkakuji (KyOtO), which few
foreigners have ever seen in actual
ity and the entrance to which by for
eigners was punished with death by
tOrtures until a comparatively few
years back.
There is a japanese tea-house by the
sea, showing a waiting room for
guests, with every detail exactly ce-
produced. The originals of these gar
dens were first created Z.GO0 years ago
in prehistoric Japan by Buddhist monks,
and il became with them almost an Oc-
cult science. They essayed TO express
abstract ideas, such as chastity faith.
piety, calm. content etc, and varied
owners, weather poets, warriors, en-
perOrs, philosophers, etc. In these an
cient gardens OF rapidly dying, II not
already dead ciVilizatiOn-that of old
Japan-there are expressed both a sub
tie understanding of some mood of ma
ture and some rare oriental conception
of a mood of the human heart.
1t is not too much TO say that moth
ing ever shown at any worlds fair has
equalled in beauty interest, or in high
character of conception the rare, quaint
features of these gardens of old Japan.
But in addition to their gardens the
emperor of Japan has had his coun-
sellers and mobiles spare no expense in
setting forth every detail of Japanese
life OF the present, and but little IL
lacking to snow the ancient and mod
ern history of the japanese race. There
are acres of Industrial exhibits. of army
and naval exhibits, of silk creation
from the birth Of the silk worms to the
silks.

But. Of course, while japanese art.
industry and history are shown here as
never before, yet the great aim of
been looked after in an indispensable
manner. The last word in monstrOus
mechanical devices for startling the
sightseers has surely been said in the
formation OF the gigantic and gro
tesQue flip-flap. 1t consists of two
giant arms, each having at its upper
end ears capable of holding 200 people.

Good Servant:
Bad Master.

These words comprehend the
philosophy of money and its use.
Money should be made a good ser
want; not permitted to become a
bad master.
Money Is ever the mahgn mas
ter of the miser. 1t exerts an evil
influence also on the person who
carries his surplus in his pocket,
for insidiOusly it Weans him from
thrift and frugaity and makes him
wasteful. 1t Is the good servant Of
the man who uses 1t wisely, ex-
pending only Tor necessities and
saving what he can Tor his older,
non-produetive years. Money IS
the best servant when kept IN bank,
ready for instant use by its owner
I'D meanwhile performing its ap-
pointed duty as factor IN com
merce.
The majority Of people nowadays
ave a sank account IN which they
are sowing the seed of fortune.
Many, however, for various reas-
Ons have failed to make this start
toward a competency. We invite
the accounts of those who wish TO
make money the servant of their
declining years.

THAT WAS SOME SUMMER.

1HAT WAS SOME 5SOWW1n'
A Philadelphia paper has gone
through its files and the old almanacs
with such good advantage that Vt now
Is able to assure us that the spring or
1910 is q model compared to some sea-
sons OF the past. For instance here IS
what it says happened back IN 1916,
which was known as the year without
a summer"
There was a frost in every month OF
I the year. January and February were
mild: March was clustering and raw;
at the end Of April snow fell abundant
~ and the brooks were ice-imprlsoned
as In winter. In May the wondering
buds and young plants were nlpped
ere they were aware; the corn crop
was annihilated by an ice sheet that
formed to the thickness Of half an
inch. IN June snow fell three inches
deep in New York and Massachusetts
and the destruction Of growing things
begun In May, was disastrously COM
pleted. On the fifth Of July ice as
thick as window glass was a common
phenomenon in Pennsylvania, and In
August there was Ice half an inch
thick. Pennsylvania farmers were COM
PEELED to pay 39. and SIS bushel for
corn for the next springs planting.
Winter seemed to set in during the lat
ter fortnight OF September; from that
time forward Ice and snow were at no
time lacking.
After reading about the eccentrici-
ties of old 1916, the 1910 sample OF
weather doesn't look SO bad.

Annie Hartwell, behind the cur

young man deliberately pull up her
cherished pansies and throw them
away. All this happened in the dim

stare curiously at her mothers

merely wondered at the mania pos

The swEET GIRL GRADUATE.

The sweet girl graduate has not at
tracted the. attention she deserves this
spring because the date of her arriva!
conflicted somewhat with the primary
election, which seems to monopolize
attention Just now. But after the polls
close tonight the s.. q. G. will come
into her own ana neither religion, pol
tiles, nor any of the other OF the
worlds activities will be able to crowd
her from the limelight. Therefore, as
she will be with us soon, a poetic
outburst from the Chicago Evening
post. dedicated to the sweet girl grad
uate, is seasonable, evenif it does give
evidence Of the use Of poetic license
The: Post poet says:
The sweet girl graduate now stands
with her grave essay in her hands
and after she has made her bow she
tells exactly why and how the world
should be revamped entire to mold II
to our hearts desire.
She has been toiling late Of nights
to draft this little bill of rights. and to
find cures for all the ills which give
the nation grievous chills, and which
upset each helpful plan which would
insure the peace OF man.
Her brow is high, her waist Is slim,
her dress in neat In At and trim, and
when she waves her white white hand
in q brave gesture Of command, we re-
alize that now at last we'll drop the
shackles of the past.
For here we see is one to take the
helm Of state and swiftly make our
country run as smooth and true as ev-
cry country ought to do, so we sit
back in deep content and let her fol.
low out her bent.
And will she bravely sally forth by
east and west and west and south and
north and sound her ringing clarion
call to you and me and one and all,
and rouse us to our country's needs
and spur us on to noble deeds.
Not much, my meek and gentle
friend. Seest thou yon senior at the
end? That fellow with the young
mustache and necktie like an awful
crash? That youngster lean and lank
and slim? Well, next week she'll elop.s
with him!
