Japan's Art Treasures.

Outlining the history of Japanese Color Prints" William Lawrence Keane, writing in the Century, says that in the old days of Japanese art artists of note received no salaries, but were retained by the daimios (feudal lords), or were rewarded for their work by the shOgunate in roku ,Or an annuity of so many kOku (about 300 pounds) of rice, the quantity being gagged according to the rank of the recipients. People had no desire for riches in the days of old Japan, and money had little value. It was con sldered beneath the dignity Of an artist to be paid in cash.
 UtamorO, whose name is now fa- nous in the popular school, was very proud .anG although at the time ne hourished his fellow artists devoted most of their time 10, the delineaticn of actof prints, which were selling like wildfre, he declined to drag lIs art down to the level of commerce. To use his own words, T decline to deba SC my art for the sake of money, and ra- fuse to draw pictures of beggars (sO low in the social scale were actors regarded) in order to cater to the silly fancy of women and children"
 A change has taken place, how ever, within recent years, writes Mir Keane, due, no doubt to the high ap- preciation accorded these prints by Occidental connoisseurs and now the 1 higher-class Japanese are awakening | to a sense of their artistic merit-too | late, l fear, as the best specimens in ] existence are in the possession O1 European and American collectors.

A unique play in the political game will be played in the All Souls Uni versaIist- Unitarian church next Sun day evening under the direction of Pastor Bullock, who will preside and open the session by reading the cleo tors oath. Then ten minutes will be allowed each speaker to explain just why the party he represents should nave the support of the people. There will be no debate or anything of that kind, and no speaker will take up any point advanced by previous speak CT as the topic of discussion, but will confine to party principles and pros poets, simply that and nothing. more.
 Hadali A. Hull will speak for the democratic party, Lucius E. Whiton for the republicans, Edward s. DOten for the progressives, and a socialist from the west who will be in New London that day in the interests of that party will talk for the socialists, and Dr. Edward c. Chipman will es- pouse the cause of the prohibitiOnists It will be necessary for each to have a set speech as the arrangements pro- vide that in the event of an over flow meeting to the Sunday school rooms of the church, the same speak CTS will recite the same speech first delivered in the church proper. There will be no questioning permitted and applause of any description will be barred. The judges will be the au- dience but no decision will be per- mitted at the church.

That long -discussed and once aban- doned pro ject of extending the troll ley line from Broad street to Bank, and designated as the Jefferson av- enue loop, will soon be a reality, for the tracks are now nearly laid the en- tire distance and the overhead work and equipment and operation will fol- low in close succession. It would not be much of surprise to see cars running over the new extension on Thanksgiving day, or just about twenty years from the time that a street car was first propelled through the streets of New London and horses as badly frightened at the trolley car as if it had been procession of elephants direct from the jungle. That Jefferson avenue loop was all planned to be built, with the ties and the rails along the layout, when there arose dispute as to the right of way through Lincoln avenue, or rather over a matter of grading and consequent alleged damage to property, the work was abandoned and the rails of spec lal shape carted to storage and the straight rails and ties utilized else where.

Benjamin L. Armstrong was the mayor of the city at the time and the present Mayor Mahan owned the property that was in dispute as to the grading. It seems that the layout in cluded deep cut in the Mahan prop erty and Mahan asked in return for the damage the filling in of his lot from what would be. taken by the change in grade and the balance to come from the street sweepings. These two prominent citizens could not pos sibly agree and the railroad improve ment was called off. This extension was considered a matter of public convenience and necessity then and the consideration has been on the in- crease ever since. It was one of the many things that Mayor Mahan and the city wanted and he went off and got it.

Lucius H. Bushnell, who died re- gently at the Soldiers, home at Moro

Lucius H. Bushnell, who died re-
 gently at the Soldiers home at Noro-
 ton, was one of the few men gone
 who placed their personal property
 outside of the reach of the probate
 court in order that it would surely and
 speedily go direct to the beneficiary,
 and without the form of a will and
 without the legal court expenses. He
 had BIT that he wanted the Methodist
 church to have after his death. So
 he handed the money over to a friend
 to be devoted to that purpose and it
 was given as directed during the pres
 ent week MT. Bushnell was for years
 a member of that church and took
 active part in advancing its best
 interests until he became blind and
 encamped at the Soldiers home Just
 what his business was in his early
 manhood the deponent knoweth not,
 but not long after the civil war he
 entered the employ of the late Ernest
 E. Schierge, merchant tailor and re-
 mained in that employ until MT. SChierge died more than ten years
 ago. He worked for small wages, was fugil in his living and perhaps the money given to the church represent ed the greater part of the savings of his lifetime. He was sincere christian and faithful and useful to
 his Employer outside of the tailoring With MT. Schierge, MT. Bushnell became interested in the original Young Mems Christian association in New London, when it's main object was religious work and general de- bates. Both men named always took part in these debates. MT. Schierge was a German and never thoroughly mastered the English language so far as went the pronunciation and exact meaning of words not in ordinary use. Here is where MT. Bushnell assisted in the preparation of debates. Often while MT. Schierge was at loss of the word to use MT. Bushnell was at hand to furnish just the word that was wanted. Mir Bushnell was an un- usually fine penman and had a fund

Every farmer knows that he can't raise onions unless he first sows the seed. Most farmers know that they can't raise good onions without also fertilizing and lining the soil and giving il some cultivation But whole crowds of us farmers think we ought tO be able to raise fancy gilt edged, A No. One onions without getting down into the dirt with fingers and thumbs, and sweating hot hours over the interminable rows.

After q couple of weeks of delay the new court of common council for the city of New London organized last Tuesday evening and the plum tree was shaken and the plums grasp ed by patient walters. AS a natural result the disappointed ones are po- liticalIy unhappy and displeased to the core tinged with just enough re- venge to perhaps have a change oi faith on next election day. Twas ever thus twill be. perhaps. Still the result as a whole, so far as went the distribution of the offices within the gift of the council is satisfying to the general public and to all except those who are insistent that to the victors should want all the spells. In this in stance. however, the democrats on the outside seem to forget that the party victory i'll the city election was made possible by the assistance of those who ordinarily vote the republican ticket. The democratic majority of the council, in view of this fact, and other circumstances as to the gentle mans unusual fitness for the place, including his experience in the office, Charles Prentis, republican, was re- appointed charity commissioner, and Alderman Kirkland, republican, was chosen as the councils representative on the boaGd of water and cewer commissioners. All the other offices were given to democrats.

 You can't weed an onion patch and keep your Oyeralls clean.' Just phrase which caught my eye, the other Jay. in a report of some conversation with ga old farmer But 1t set me thinking and it seemed to suggest. the more l thought of it, the text for a ten minute sermon.
 Two CT three other famous sayings, along the same line. came to my mind while thinking. Among them Bis marks Lalf-cynical response to one who protested against what seemed the ruthlessneSs of the Iron Chancel- lor's course in European politics: You can't make an omelette without break tLg eggs"

When a man has studied his farm and his markets with all the intelIi- gonce he possesses or can beg and borrow: when he has put into it all the trained skill and all the hard work it calls for: if he then scores only a failure, he is deserving of pity and sympathy.

WHATEVER MAN GETS HE PAYS THE PRICE

corn and the reddest apples and the fanciest potatoes in Connecticut
 Now and then some one of us at tains some one of these ends. Gener- ally speaking, the rest of us don't ever get within gunshot of any of them.
 Why?
 Because, in practically every case, the one was willing and able to pay the price; the many were too selfish or too lazy or too weak to do so.
 When man buys big building lot in New York city, he pays for it with a million dollars, say That's the prics of the lot. But he first got those mil lion dollars by paying the price for them,-for every single individual dol lar in the whole sum. He never made" that million: he bought it and paid the price for it, as truly as he bought and paid the price for his city lot. In just what uncoined values he paid for the minted metal. we may not always know. But we all do know or should know that he did pay the price, in full and to the uttermost farthing. It may have been in straining and heart breaking work: it may have been in lies and graft: it may have been in the pallid checks and anaemic lives of his business victims: it may, perhaps have been merely with his own soul
 But in whatever medium of ex- change it was, don't forget that he paid -the-p -price'
 Whether his bargain was a good one after all We are not able to decide off, hand. Nor are we asked to.
 Yet, in all walks of life,-among us farmers as truly as among confessed gamblers and t-rich-quiCk' busi- ness gratters.-t most of us spent more time in trying to avoid paying the price, than we do in earning that price. We want tO become learned without hard tagging, brain -tiring study; We want to become rich with out paying the cost of riches: we want to get high office without travelling the muddy and dirty and loSE5 road which cork screws toward political prcferment: lots of us farm CTS want to have big crops and get big prices for them without doing the hard work and using the trained Judgment which are the parents of such success
 But we are sightless moles, burrow- ing hHnd,y in the hlaCkness of our '''' 'N''-l 4'tll'slll ldbg illlIS, II we cant see that in every case the men who get something pay in one way or another for what they get.

dent pretend to know how it used to be in the old days when each farm was a separate principality under one royal boss. But in these days, when competition is SO keen and modern transportation has brought the farms or Texas and California next door to our own home markets, we farmers have got to keep our eyes open and our hands busy. We've got, in the first place to find out what is going to be charged us as the price of sue cessful farming. Right there at the start of, we can set it down as one sure thing that we shall be charged big lot of hard and disagreeable and dirty work. We shall have to pay for those onions with soiled over alIs and grimy tingernails and sore knees. We may have to pay other things too, but we shall have to pay SO much. anyway. We cant earn good onions by whipping a trout stream the day they need wedding We can't earn them by spending for a photograph the money which ought to have gone into fertilizer.
 Perhaps we'd rather go fishing. Per haps we'd rather lie on the lounge and listen to canned music. These things are not improbable.
 Hut we simply can't buy one thing with the price we've already paid for another thin.
