 The writer brought out few books on Japanese methods of physical train ing and the allied subjects of diet and hygiene a few years ago. In these books rather emphatic claims were made for the good health and nicely balanced nervous systems of the aver age Japanese. Some reviewers for medi- cal journals put the question: How is it possible for the Japanese to have steady nerves when, as is well known, they are a nation of tea guzzlers?"

JOURNAL HAS AN
INTERVIEW THAT SPEAKS
WELL FOR N. OAK.

Minneapolis Journal: If NIinneapo-
lis business men will just forget about
that reciprocity business and turn their
attention more to North Dakota, IL
will find condition up there that Of
fers great business opportunities, for
the whole state is cheered up and feel
ing good" said Clark G. Dalrymple of
Kelso, in the Red River valley, who is
in Minneapolis today.
Minneapolis people, some Of them,
as least, have the situation in North
Dakota sized up entirely wrong. The
wealth of this years crop is away be-
yond what people down here know of.
From Kelso, for instance, $4,000 BUSH
els of rye has been shipped, nothing
like it having happened before. There
is a good crop of So flax, good potato
crop, an oats crop that is good, but
will not be shipped, as it can be used
to better advantage in the state;
corn crop that is history maker and
means that there will be no such scare.
ity Of feed as was the case last year,
and barley crop that is wonder in
money producing powers.
Barley at $1.14 a Bushel.
Practically none of the North Da-
kota barley will bring less than 70

cents, and the good stuff is running up
to $1.14 bushel.' The bad weather Of
this summer is remembered in Minnea-
polls, but the actual North Dakota re-
suits were away beyond what might
then have been expected.
''The organization of the North Da-
kota One Hundred Dollar an Acre club
is an indication Of how the people feel
Minneapolis need not worry over the
defeat of reciprocity North Dakota
alone has development possibilities that
must necessarily mean big business for
Minneapolis as they are worked out'

rymple said. It does not mean, he said,
that the North Dakota farmers or the
country merchants are going to become
extravagant, or that there is to be any
able conservatism. Tt does mean, he
change from general policy of conser-
vatism. It does mean, he said, that
hesitation and doubt has been dis
PEELED, and North Dakota now feels
that such development as had been
held in check by the uncertainty as to
reciprocity and fear on the part of
farmers that its passage would hurt
them will go ahead.
Farmers are Relieved.
"There is no mistaking the fact that
while the reciprocity measure hung on
the outcome of the Canadian election
there was much hesitation in North
Dakota,' Mr.. Dalrymple said. "The
listing Of land for sale showed it. The
farmers certainly believed that it
would hurt them To say the farmers
feel no bitterness toward anyone,
though they may have been for or
against reciprocity. They care nothing
about it now, as it is dead and gone.

REALLY OPENED THEIR EYES
P~arishioner's Remark, However, Left
Young Minister Somewhat in
In the Dark.

Rev. Henry r. Rose in the Newark
Star tells the story Of a young min
lister who had recently taAen charge
of a small parish in Vermont. He
aspired to greater things and a large
field, and in the hope that his reputa-
ton would travel beyond the limits OF
the village to which he had been sent
he threw into his sermons all the
force and e%loQuence at his command.
He was, however, totally unprepared
for what was intended for a cOmpli-
ment, but which was put to him in
such a way that it left him in doubt
as to the real impression he had made.
One Sunday morning, after an espe-
cially brilliant effort, he was greeted
by an old lady, who was one of the
most faithful attendants at all serv-
ices. Approaching the young minister,
she said: "!Ah, sir, We do enjoy your
sermons so much, they are so in
structive. Do you believe it, we never
knew what sin was until you came to
the parish"

GOT HIS s0BRIQUET EARLY
"Honest John" Kelly Proved His Right
to the Title Long Before
Manhood.

There have been many stories about
the n in which Honest John
Kelly, the ex-umpire, first got his nick.
name. Mr.. Kelly himself, according
to a New York letter, holds that it
came to him naturally, for even as a
small boy the purity Of his soul shone
through his face. Il think the first
time l was ever called Honest John
was when l was quite a y%oungster,'
said Kelly. "A man engaged as an
ambulatory salesman of tinware OBJ
served the ingenious countenance l
presented to the world and hailed me
You look honest, boy said he. What
might your name be?' john said l,
quite simply. 'John'-just like that.
Then hold my horse while l go in
the saloon and get a drink said he.
And so l held his horse while he went
in the saloon and got a drink. But
this was on lower Ninth avenue, in a
day when the avenues honors went
to the man who could clean the most
cops in a given time. BY and by the
gang came along and beheld that
wagon full of tinware. The peddler
was detained within by a sore thirst,
and they took the tinware. And then
they came back and took the cush-
ions off the wagon. Eventually, be-
coming daring, they unhitched the
wagon and took it away. True to my
trust, l stood there, holding the horse.
