A cUTTlEFiSH INVASION.
Japanese Adnniral's Novel Scheme for
Trade EXPANSION

Admiral Kimotsuk Of the Japanese
navy, who is sometimes called the Ma
han Of the far east. has now changed
his tactics, SAYS the Oriental Review,
and instead of attempting to create a
sensation throughout the world with
big navy propaganda, proposes TO
invade the Chinese empire with cut
fetish from japanese waters.
The total value OF Japans exports
is approximately 400 GOO, 600 yen, while
that France. Russia, or the United
States considered separately is on the
average 1900, 100000 yen. Germany
exports more than fifty items of MGR
chandise. each amounting in value to
more than $5,000,000. while Japan has
no more than six exports of equal
magnitude silk being the most import
ant of them. ,.s
The annual export of this product
comprehends i'm value nearly One-third
of Japan's total. ANA the value of all
of her exported sea produces about
S5,OO0,O0O More than a third of this
comes from cuttie-fish AS a small
country, such as Japan, cannot rea-
sonably hope to produce much more
than it now does from its land re-
sources, the admiral is urging his
countrymen TO turn their attention and
energy TO marine Industries and, par
ticularly. to use the long-legged sen
creature for a peaceful invasion of
China.
The Chinese are the only people who
buy dry cuttle-fish from Japan, but
they have a special fondness for this
delicacy and cook IL in various ways
There is, too. Chinese tradition con
corning the eating of this fish on Ger

limited at present to the towns and
cities on the seashore and along the
rivers where shipment is easy. but

parts of the Chinese. empire with its
more than 100000, 900 people.
If every Chinese consumes one dried
cuttle-lish a month, or twelve equiva

mum, 400.000,000 pounds of that food

at least S50,OOO,OOO to Japan.
From this the admiral proceeds to
examine the natural question as tc
whether there is a reasonable pros

in Japanese waters. This question he

LIFE IN DENMARK.
A Country Where Almost Everybody
Is Poor, But Happy.

"In Denmark everybody is poor" de-
clares a writer In the English Queen,
There are no coal or mineral deposits
in the country. Consequently there can
be no manufactures; and nation of
farmers. even of Danish farmers. is
never rich, according to the standards
of commercial countries.
Incomes are small Where the sal
airy of a minister Of state is only $4,000
year humber individuals must get
along on much smaller incomes. But
the Danes know how to live within
their incomes and to do it comfortably.
Denmark is as obviously happy as she
is poor.
THE Danes are wise enough not to
demand perfection; If it comes they
can take instant pleasure therein.
When it does not come they still are
placid. Conformity to rule, even
though ii be i'm so small matter as
fixed meal times. does entail some coer-
coin upon the natural man. So pune
tuality is not a Danish virtue.
I'm few Danish households are there
fixed and unalterable hours for meals.
Pay call when YOU viii. and the GUS
tom of the country will uphold you
against finding your friends at table.
The hotels follow the very reverse Of
the American method, and while YOU
can get snacks all the time, you can
not be certain that at any time you
viii find dinner ready cooked and

Even the national food lends itself
admirably both to simplicity and to un-
punctuality. Its staple is bread and
