GROWING ,Ianan.

From the New York Evening Post.
Either the loyalty and discipline Of
the Japanese people have been exag-
gerated or else the population OF Toxic
is no typical Of Japan. The frequent
recurrence Of rioting in the mikado's
capital certainly betrays no inclination
on the part Of a considerable number
OF his subjects to accept without pro-
test whatever governmental policy Is
imposed upon them in the mikado,s
name. 1t is a changing Japan, with
parliament defying the elder statesmen
and women haranguing the crowds. It
Is a Japan experiencing the growing
pains of q mere nation that is becom-
Ing q power. The country is torn be-
tween imperialistic dreams and a cry-
Ing need for peace and retrenchment.
Those intimately acquainted with pres
ent conditions in Japan declare that
we have no conception Of how crushing
is the burden Of taxation upon the peo-
pie. and how fierce is the struggle for
economic existence. Poverty brings
discomfort. and the people Of Toxic
riot. That they should be rioting in
favor OF a stronger foreign policy. more
soldiers. more battleships. In other
words. more poverty. is not an n
known phase OF crowd psychology.

SCALP TROUBLE FOR YEARS

ease was a scalp trouble. / first no

commenced to itch and | would
scratch them and In time they got
larger, forming q acale or scab with a
little pus, and chunks Of hair would
come out when I would scratch them

hair. 1t became thin and dry and life
less. I was troubled for over ten
years with 1t until it got so bad | was
ashamed to go to a barber to get my
hair cut.
II tried everything I could get hold
of, --- and ---, but received no
cure until / commenced using Cuticu-
ra Soap and Ointment when the scale
commenced to disappear. The way l
used the Cuticura Soap and Ointment

HOW THE JAPANESE FISH.

In the mable room Of the Senate, a
Japanese visitor was waiting to see a
senator. The situation impressed one
q little because OF the wariike condi-
tons set forth SO forcibly by the yell
low newspapers. The little man seemed
placid enough as his eye wandered up
and down the pages Of a Japanese mag
azine. printed on a n tissue paper

he was reading an interesting account
Of whale fishing as now carried on in

New london has been taken over by
the sturdy little Jap sailors who have
dreams OF IN day becoming masters
Of the Pacific.
On the ruins OF the American enter
prises that largely led to her introduc-
ton into the family Of nations, Japan
has built up a great whale fishery. h
American consul at Hakodate, Japan,
recently made reports OF this interest
ing subject, tracing the industry from
h year 1920, when the American
whaler Marc commanded by Capt.
Joseph Allen. and an English ship in
charge Of Captain Coffin, OF Nan
tucket, visited Japanese waters and in
three short months filled up" and
sailed for home. These waters, OF
course, soon became q favorite whaling
ground, and In 1850, out OF 54s
whalers sailing under the American
nag, fully 100 cruised in or crossed the
Japanese grounds. In act the i'm
portance OF this American fishery, the
occasional loss Of whalers On the Jap.

MARGARET HALEY SAYS THAT
SONSTEBY GOT $1,000
Margaret Haley, business agent of
the teachers federation, yesterday
charged that the teachers were fore
ed to pay School Trustee John ]. Son.
steby $1,000 to represent them before
the legislature in their fight for the
passage of a bill taking the repair of
school buildings from the educational
and placing it in the building fund.
This is in answer to SOnsteby's
oft-repeated boast as to how much
good he did for the teachers in get
ting that bill passed.
At a meeting Of the parents of chill
dren of the Delano School Wednesday
night Sonsteby told again of the good
he had done the teachers and how he
saved Miss Haley's job.
Eyes, and you were paid $1,000 for
it." Miss Haley answered. ..
Miss Haley then explained that
prior to the passage of the bill in 1909
the repair money had always been
taken from the educational, which
left hole of about 100000 annually
The teachers wanted this shifted to
the building fund so that the teachers
could get raise in salary.
Sonsteby went down to Springfield
and the bill was passed. But after
that he took note from w. ]. Bart
holt, principal of the Crane Technical
School, asking Miss Haley to give
Sonsteby 81, 500 more.
Miss Haley could not give him this.
But she got $500 on her life fnsur-
ance. Then $1,000 more was obtain
ed by the teachers subscriptions.
