and generals. and you will notice that
quite half of them, probably. have noses
OF the aquiline or hook" type. This
nose Is quite uncommon in the United
Kingdom nowadays. though it is less
rare in the eastern counties than else
where. IN Canada, for some reason, the
aqutline nose Is comparatively common.
But in England our noses are much
straighter than they used to be.
The American face is steadily chang
ing. Various writers have pointed out
the curious fact that the typical Amer
lean face is getting to resemble more
and more closely that of the original
awellers in the same lan1; the Red Ind
ian's high and prominent cheek-bones,
lank hair, thin lips, and impassive ex-
preston are points that the two races,
though so different In blood, have in
common. 1t has even been asserted
that in the different parts of the States
the typical local face tends to be like
that of the tribe which used to live in
that particular part
Similarly, more than one visitor to New
Zealand has remarked on the number of
broad, bottle noses to be seen there
The same mysterious process which is
al work in America seems to be working
there. too. for this nose, a sort of squat
aouiline. is the nose typical of the New
Zealand aborigine, the Maori. A Sydney
Journalist recently said playfully that be-
fore the English emigrant to New Zea-
land leaves the quayside his nose can be
seen swelling. 1t has been suggested,
too, that the typical South African face
is beginning to get heavy, like that of
the Boer.

months there has been d steady success

tempting to inlist on the proper salute.
Finally the matter came TO bloody en-
counters, in which officers cut down with
their swords students who persistently
refused to salute them Discipline in the
academy went entirely by the hoard,
studies stopped and the authorities finaliy
closed the institution.

dents is of less serious nature. 1t for

death in Rome of ]. Pierpont Morgan
from the United States. The first dis

from Rome, with which Berlin has dl-

JAPAN. ADOPTS
DIET OF ENGLAND
Decides to Put Beef on the
Daily Menu for
Navy
From Pearson's weekly.

From Pearson's Weekly.
Japan has finally decided, after exper-
iments extending over some years, to
put beef on the daily diet of her navy.
The reason is that the men in those
ships where beef has been given daily
have an advantage in height OF nearly
three quarters of an inch over the aver
age Japanese peasant, to whom meat is
an unknown food.
In fact, Japan as whole shows signs
of growing taller. It Is some twenty
or twenty-five years since townspeopie
began adding western foods to their
native diet of rice. Consular reports
show that the stock sizes of ready
made suits have all moved up.
Another curious change made by civil
Iization on the Jap is result of the
large sale of hair brushes and hair oil
there. Till the Japanese adopted wes-
tern civilization their hair was as up
right and bristly as golliwog's. Now
II is as smooth and lank as an English

If the figure of John Bull, so dear to
the caricaturist, were brought up-to-
date, he would have to be robbed of his
curls. That is one way in which the
English type is changing. For centu-
ries the average Englishman had curly
hair But during the whole of the elgh-
teenth century wigs were In general use
and our hair has never recovered from
that hundred years of wig wearing. The
curliness has been crushed out That,
too. is supposed to be one reason why
badness has been much commoner IN
the nineteenth and twentieth centuries
than it was in the Middle Ages and up
to 1900.
A similar change is that from fair to
dark. The majority of English people
are now more dark than fair, while CEN
turies ago the balance was decidedly
the other way. The great majority OF
Englishmen are town dswellers, and med
Iical science recognizes that dark people
are better adapted constitutionally for
city life than fair people.
our noses have changed a lot too.

A CURE FOR NEURALGIA
New Orleans Doctor Experimenting
With Alcoholic Injections

From the Springfield Republican.
II less sensational than the much dis
cussed Friedman consumption cure, the
announcement from New Orleans OF a
cure for neuralgia lis, IL well founded,
of very high Importance.
The suffering caused by neuralgia Is
out of all proportion to the seriousness
o. the malady, and intolerable pain has
led many victims to suicide and has
made many more into hopeless vitcims
of destructive drugs. Many diseases are
more deadly, but hardly any causes so
much misery to those who suffer from it.
The remedy announced by DR.. Rudolph
Matas of New Orleans consists in the in
lection of alcohol into the nerve gang
lions at the base of the skull. A DEM
onstration of the method was made re-
Gently at the Tulane Medical college and
aroused much interest. DIR. Matas says
that the injection is effective for two
years and takes the place of the major
operation of removing gangla.

German Judges Earn Much Less

Brick Layers-Germany Received
Late News of Morgan's Death

Berlin, April 19.--tspeoial) 1.-THE Central
Association of German Citizens of Jewish
Faith, one of the most important Hebrew
ORGANIZATIONS of Germany. has definitely
rejected zionism, in so far as this move
|nlent strives for particularsm, and it has
ANNOUNCED that the Hebrew citizen in
Germany is first of all German, and only
|sec econdly a Jew.
| The association, at recent meeting in
|Rerlin, adopted a resolution indorsing the
EFFORTS of the Zionists to provide a safe
|heme for the prosecuted Jews of the east
land to awaken pride in Jewish history
and loyalty to its religion, but declared :
I'VE must, however, part from the
Zionist who rejects a German national
Feeling, and who considers himself a
guest in a foreign land and looks upon
himself only as a Jew
I'VE do not desire solution of the
Jewish question by international action y
says another passage of the resolution.

further German culture, while remain

history and religion."
That German judges earn much less
money In the first years of their career
than bricklayers, is the curious fact
brought out by a recent writer.
The average age at which young jurists
receive their appointment as fulnedged
judges Is 30 years; and at that age they
|have earned in subordinate courts posi-
|tions only about enough to pay for the
Expense of their education. At 80, how
ever. the average bricklayer has already
learned above 5000. The judge receives
$s57 year upon his appointment, and
his salary rises slowly to $3.50 at so years
|of age By this time the judge has earned
about Sls66O, less the expense of his edu-
|cation, while the bricklayer has earned
la total of $11,S00. In other words, the
Judge is in his 44th year when his earn
