T0UCHY SERVANTS.
Japanese Nesans Have to Be Handled
With Gloves of Velvet.

Japanese servants must be treated
with tact, however trying they may be,
and often they are very trying indeed,
especially the nesans, who are usual
" untidy, cross and lazy. Yet the
dear little things have admirers who
praise their kittenish ways, their tiny
hands and even. of all things, their
artistic temperaments.
A certain writer solemnly says: "A
japanese nesan-any nesan, even one
in a hotel-will set out your hairbrush-
es, clothesbrushes, nail scissors, col
lar box and tooth powder on the av-
erage hotel dressing table and make
design of them-a picture. an artistic
whole" All / can say is that no nesan
has ever arranged studies of still life
with the nail scissors and the tooth
powder for me. though. possibly by
way Of compensation, one has started
little lakes of boiling water on my
carpet when rang for you, or toppled
over the morning tea tray and ar
ranged the fragments in an uncon-
ventional design on my bed quilt, or
dragged a table with scrapings in
minor key the whole length of the We
randa.
If corrected roughly the maiden will
first cry and then leave. The hotel
manager is well aware of this-aware
with all the nervous perception Of a
person whom one hasty or i'll consider
ed sentence can throw into a situa-
ton seriously threatening his comfort
and prosperity; hence his attitude of
habitual meekness. He dares not let
his little lecture slide over the line
which divides it from scolding and
is careful TO deliver necessary ex-
hortatiOn with a smiling face and fire.
quent laughs just to show that it is
really not scolding at alL-St Louis

a Party o. Disguised Americans AND
an overarateful Driver.

In Mr.. Howells' Roman Holidays
md Others is this delightful story
Of an adventure in a Roman cab:
In returning from the Pincio the only
cab we had been able 70 get was the
last left OF the very worst cabs In
Rome. and we had hidden the driver
wait fr US at the church steps, not
withot some hope that he would play
us false. But there he was, true to
his word. with such disciplined fidelity
as that of the Roman sentinels who
used to die at their posts, and we
mounted to ours with the muted
prayer that we at least might reach
home alive.
This did not seem probable when the
driver whipped up his horse. 1t APP
peared to have aged and sickened
while we were 10 the church, although
we had thought il looked as bad as
could be before, and ii lurched alarm
ingly from side TO SIDE recovering IT.
self with a plunge of its heavy head
away from the side in which its body
was sinking.
The driver swayed on his box, hav-
ing fallen equally decrepit, in spite OF
the restoratives he seemed to have ap-
piled for his years and infirmities. His
clothes had put on some such effect
of extreme decay as those of Rip Van
Wrinkle in the third act; there was
danger that he would fall on top Of
his falling horse and that their raj
ment would mingle in one scandalous
ruin.
Via Sistina Had never been so full Of
people before; never before had 1t been
so long 10 that point where we were
TO turn out of II into the friendly OBJ
security of the little cross street which
would bring us TO our hotel. We could
not consent 10 arrive in that form; we
made the driver stop, and we got out
and began overpaying him to release
us.
But the more generously we over
paid him the more nobly he insisted
upon serving us to our door.
At last, by such lavish expenditure
as ought richly to provide for the few
remaining years of himself and his
horse, we prevailed with him to let us
20 and reached our hotel glad, al
most proud, to arrive on foot.

Some people persist in thinking that
the art Of writing is recent and that
in primitive times poems and literary
productions had TO be memorized. But
more than 5000 years before the Chris
tian era people in Abraham's native
town wrote receipts for garden and
market products just as we have them
now, showing that the patriarchs GER
tainly must have known how TO read

Rome, Italy.-Four aeroplanes have
arrived here from France. They
will be sent to Tripoh, where 1t
is proposed to make the first expert

actual warfare. They will be piloted
by Italian officers, who will undertake

st. Petersburg, Russia.-The text OF
a Russian note to Turkey regarding
the free export Of Russian corn was
made public.
In reply to a verbal remonstrance
Turkey had said that she intended to
act according to the declaration Of
London of 1909. AS this was consid-
cred unsatisfactory to Russia, this
government presented written de-
mand wherein it was pointed out that
Russia, basing her position upon the
declaration of Paris Of 1855 and ar
ticles "a and 33 of the declaration OF
London, considered eargoes Of corn
subject neither to arrest nor to con-
fiscation when addressed to Russian
ports in the Black sea or to Italian
ports, If the cargoes were not destined
for the Italian field forces or Italian
official consignees.
Constantinople. - Italy has made
propositions that are expected to bring
Ieace. 1t proposes to annex Tripoli
and pay indemnity. Italy is to con-
srol all civil and military affairs, while
the caliph is to be supreme in all re-
ligious affairs.
The Sabah publishes dispatch stat
ing that large Italian force attacked
q detachment of Turks entrenched in
the hills outside of Tripoli and were
replused after a long and severe bat
tie. The Italian casualties are given
as 1000 killed and wounded.
Notice has been given to all Italian
newspaper men in Turkey that they
will be expelled in "a hours.
A society has been organized to
wage an economic war against Italy.
All Ottomans are asked to sign dec
Iaration undertaking an oath to cease
all dealings with Italians. Newspa-
pers indorsing this campaign advise
Ottomans to inculcate the young with
a hatred for Italy and Italians.

HARLAN DIES AT CAPITAL
Noted Supreme Court Justice Expires
Of Attack Of Bronchitis at
Washington.

Washington. - Associate Justice
John Marshall Harlan of the United
States Supreme court, died at his
home here.
Justice Harlan was stricken with an
attack of bronchitis. At his advanced
age the family was alarmed, and all
the jurist's children were summoned.
With the exception of the son, Rich
ard, they were all at the bedside when
he died, as was Mrs. Harlan.
Justice Harlan attended the opening
session Of the Supreme court last
Monday. He was also present on
Tuesday, when the arguments in the
anthracite coal case were begun.
There was no member of the Su-
preme court more widely known than
Justice Harlan. He has been called
the most independent of the Justices.
He was noted for his dissenting opin-
ions. In the Standard Oil and To-
bacco trust cases, recently decided, his
dissenting opinion was as widely
quoted as the opinion of the major
ity of the court.
