Japan's Isles Of Pines.

!: Matsushima Is regarded as one Of,
the sankei, or three most beautiful:
places in Japan: And 1T well deserves;
this reputation, for there are indeed
few fairer natural scenes ION earth. It
reminds the traveller Of the Thousand
isles Of Canada and the English lakes
all in one. Here innumerable pine,
clad islands lift their fronded faces
through the purple haze over a sea of.
silver green, and when the sunsets:
throwing the myriad islands into q
golden glow, the mind is charmed to-
ecstasy. Matsushima bay, Is more
!than,six miles long and Eve wide, and
to visit all the hundreds of islands
that adorn the surface Of the sea in
this place would take years. Yet one
may see the best part of MAtsushima
in two orithree days II one knows how.

Recruiting dn the great war which
ended In the fall Of Napoleon was a
vastly different matter from that which
prevails today. Take the militia act
,of 1903, for instance. In each subdivi-
sion Of county q, list was made Of all
men between the ages Of eighteen and
forty Ave. classified into (a) those un-
der thirty and without children, Qb)
over that age, .(c) men with no chill
;dren under fourteen. @ men with
only one child under fourteen and (e,
all others. If the men required equal
ed the number in the first or second
or any set Of consecutive classes they
were taken. If not, all the names
were put In bag and drawn until the.
requisite number was obtained. Any
balloted man could purchase exemPi
ltion for five years on paying fine Of
$50, raised to SIS In 1903. the money
being paid for a substitute. The men
paying fines were exempted from the!
second ballot, and the money was. de-
voted to enabling the men in the Sec
,ond ballot to obtain substitutes. On.
this vicious principle the only man
really obliged to serve was the poor
man drawn in the first ballot.-Dun-

wsn Ladies Wers Make.

In the seventeenth century ladies
wore masks in public, and great was
the variety Of face screens that were
seen. Ladies who had 'coralline" lips
preferred short masks, as was natural.
For others who. wished to hide the
lower part, Of the face the mask was
completed by a chin piece Of linen.
which afterward passed under the
chin and over the ears. In 1852 a new
mask called the mimi. from the Italian
mimics, was all the rage and threat
ened to usurp the place of the black
one. 1t was even the cause Of violent
quarrels between the ladies who held
to the latter and those who preferred
the latest novelty. Some years later
It became the fashion to trim the up
per part Of the mask with ruche Of
lace, to lengthen 1t with a beard Of
the same material and even to cover
It more or less with lace to; the bor-
'ders OF the eyeholes. Young ladies
OF this period, however, frequently
contented themselves with covering
the face simply with piece Of black
Grape for coquetry's sake and to APP
pear the fairer. s..5 @5a:

Barbaric Brutality Of That Savage
# Ma. King Of ths Huns. {1s u ~.
Atilla was q barbarous king Of the
Huns who reigned from the year 434 to
453 Of the Christian era. but he had NO
religion except that Of brutality, con-
quest and loot He ruled with all the
weapons known In that day, and his
hOrdes were compelled to follow him
by the same means. as he had no mercy
on any who showed the least lack Of
fealty to him or mercy to the con.
quercd. For! a considerable part Of bis
reign It is said that his individual word
was law over vast territory extend
ing from the Caspian sea to the river
Rhine. As a leader he was fearless
and masterful and savage. He called
himself 1.-THE Scourge OF God" 4. y :
/ He ruled Jointly with his brother for
several years, but wanted no division
Of the spoils, and his royal brother. was
disposed of as others OF the royalties
of that region have been disposed Of
He founded the city Of Buda. made it
his capital and from it directed the
slaying and looting wherever there was
anything to get that was worth hav-
ing. He laid waste in the most ruthless
manner some Of the finest and richest
cities Of what are now Greece. Italy.
Spa1n. France and all the territory
north of that levying heavy tribute
everywhere and burning and killing
where tribute was not promptly paid
Z Ho conquered the powerful Byzan-
tine emperor, Theodosius, in 448. de-
stroying hundreds Of gems of architec-
ture and art, and, compelled the. en-
peror to pay to him the last money
possible. He again laid waste all the
eastern empires In $50 and then gave
his attention to Gaul in the west with
an army said to have been 100. 900
strong, but this is thought by some
historians to be an exaggeration. How.
ever, that army was strong enough to
do its will in all that region. He then
made an attempt by force and: cunning
to detach Theodore. king of West
Goths. from his alliance with the Ro
mans under their general. Aetius: but.
failing In that, he gave battle to the
allies near Chaions.. onsthe Catalanian
fields, and there had bis first real re-
verse :. -

victory. and the following year Attila !

A Curious Worm.

! There is a. dat worm about half. an
inch long called Planaria velata which
reproduces itself ina most extraordi-
nary manner. According to an article
in the Biological Bulletin when it
grows old it loses its appetite, its col
ors fade and It's movements become
slow, / 1t drops tiny fragment Of its
tail, then another, still another and 50
ON until it has left about half, of its
body In scattered pieces. Each de-,
Stached piece curls up, secretest a mu,s !;
Gus that soon dries and forms a hard
shell. In this condition the fragments
remain throughout the summer. fall
and winter. In the, spring the shells
burst and Hberate many minute
worms. which eat voraci0usly and
soon grow to adult size The fore
part of the worm. after it has shed all
these bits, either dies or encysts itself
in its turn. ss i, rs. u IN:
