a Faithful Servant.

Carlyle told once of lawsuit pend
ing in Scotland affecting the success
sion to a great estate of which he had
known something. The case depended
on a family secret known only to one
old servant. who refused to reveal 1T.
A kirk minister was sent to tell her

"Peril of my saul" she said. "And
would ye put the honor of an auld
Scottish family in competition with the
saul of poor creature like me?"

HIS WELCOME FOR PRoDIGAL
Cowboy Would Have Reversed Pro-
ceedIngs az Recorded In tho
Scriptures.

Judge Ben B. Lindsey Of the famous
Denver juvenile court said in the
course of recent address In char
ity:
TOO many of us are inclined to
think that, one misstep made, the boy
Is gone for good. Too many Of us are
like the cowboy.
IAN itinerant preacher preached to
a cowboy audience on the 'Prodigal
Son. He described the foolish prodi-
gals extravaganza and dissipation; he
described his perjury and his husk-
eating with the swine in the sty; he
described his return, his fathers low
ing welcome, the rejoicing, and the
preparation of the fatted calf
THE preacher in his discourse no
ticed cowboy staring at him very
hard. He thought he had made con-
vert, and addressing the cowboy per-
sonally, he said from the pulpit:
my dear friend, what would you
have done II you had had prodigal
son returning home like thatT
"'Me!' said the cowboy, promptly
and fiercely, I'D have shot the boy
and raised the calf. Detroit Free

Tokyo.-It may be true enough that
the Japanese lead "the simple life" 1t
Is. however, no easy matter for the
foreigner to adjust himself to its sim
plicity. 1t has taken US, In fact, three
weeks to do so.
Our desire to be within easy reach
Of Asakusa rendered the securing of
Q house somewhat difficult. Friends
insisted that neither in Asakusa itself
nor in the neighborhood of Uyeno
park were sanitary conditions of the
best. They said that the neighbor-
hood Of the university. high and well
drained. was the nearest to be con-
sidered. But houses in that neighbor-
hood are not easy to secure. Not in
frequently people wait for months be-
fore satisfactory one is to be had.
: But my friend Nagai's sisters hus-
band, living In that district, offered to
do his best to find place for us.
Meantime we stayed at our little Hotel
Kunikoniya, where everything was
comfortable and purely of the country.
Finally word came from Hasegawa
that house was ready for our inspec-
ton. The first impression was unfa-
vorable. The house was much smaller
than we desired and the space avail
able for gardening connected with it
limited. Anxious, however, to make
our settlement as soon as possible. we
agreed to take 1t. 1t improved upon
acquaintance, and little experience
almost seemed to show that It had
been constructed with reference to our
needs.
Mr.. Nagai and his sister were good
enough to go shopping with US. OF
course We bought no European articles.
and our purchases included only ar
ucles Of immediate and pressing need.

each side of us and In front upon the
street where our lane ends. We
therefore had to send osoba to the
two ieighboring houses on our right
and left, and to the three houses In
front Of us. and also to the agent from
whom the house il rented. We stopped
at the osoba shop on our way back
from shopping. They told us that eIe-
CANT custom demanded that we should
send three pieces" (three square
wooden trays piled one upon the other
with wooden cover on top of alb to
each house. 1t was possible to satisfy
by sending those which cost three
sen az cents) apiece. but II we were
willing to pay the extra price, they
could send osoba at seven sen apiece
which would delight the neighborhood.
We ordered the best sent, and that an
extra outfit Of four pieces" should be
delivered at our house so that the
cooks heart and stomach might be
gratified, and that we ourselves might
have chance to see what 1t is like.
It was promptly delivered, and we

houses, accompanied by plenty Of

hours each and all Of the favored neigh
bors and the renting agent made their
formal acknowledgment and thanks to
the newcomers.
Thus we moved into our new home.
At first everything was in charge Of
the old cook. His wife, who was to be
also in our employ. did not come for
several days. as she was completing a
term of service elsewhere. The old
man took good care of us, and long
before she came we had become ac-

European food-bread, butter, milk,

Both of the old people have worked
for years for American and European
families, and know what's what. It

Our household is yet far from CON-

old friends. In 1904, we saw them

The great army maneuvers this year
will, as usual, possess many new and in
teresting departures affecting modern
warfare. With other innovations it II
this year anticipated that motor omni-
buses will play very great part in the
maneuvers.
Each motor omnibus will be provided
with room for fifty soldiers and possess
a speed of about twenty-six kilcmeters
an hour. This experiment was tried with
a small portion OF troops last autumn I'm
Germany. and was found to work splen-
didly. the men being conveyed to the de-
sired positions far quicker than IL they
had marched on foot, in addition to
reaching their destination much fresher
and reader for the work before them.
This year when long march is taking
place 1t is intended to use the motor
buses i'm conjunction with foot marches.
The buses will convey a portion of the
troops ahead, drop them at q certain
point, whence they will continue their
march, refreshed with the rest and the
drive, and the buses will return to the
main body for another load OF soldiers.
who will, in turn, be conveyed to the
now advanced guard.
