INCREASES OUTPUT OF SILK
Valuable Discovery Of Japanese soien-
tist Given to His Country by
Patriotic Citizen.

A new method by which silk
worms may be cultured ten times a
year instead Of twice, as at present,
is reported to have been perfected
in Aichi Ken, Japan. The method
is very simple. Egg cards are inn
merscd in hydrochloric acid for five
to ten hours just before they are
Matched. In a fortnight or twelve
days after the immersion the eggs
are perfectly Matched, and worms
that are stronger and more healthy
than those Matched in any other
way may be seen coming out of the
shells. The silk produced by the
worms thus Matched is better and
longer than that produced in any
other way. AS the inventor Of the
process tells in a local paper, the
silk produced by the worms bred
in The newly invented way meas
urcs 1.20O feet. whereas the thread
produced by The worms Matched in
the ordinary way measures only 700
feet at The longest.
The inventor further states that
anyone may make use 'of the new
process, which, although worthy of
being fully protected, will not be
patented, as the inventors sole de-
sire is to strengthen the country's
position as a silk-producing coun-
try. The inventor is Director Ka-
wahito of the Aichi Ken sericulture
experimental station.

Toys in the Middle Aces.

Horace makes mention of the stick
horses of the Roman children. Missals
OF the middle ages picture little peo-

and the ordinary riding horse of the
ordinary child remained a stick with a
Nurse head untA late in the seven
teenth century. One hundred years
later we find horse forms with cur
talns around them. so that the child
may run on his own legs beneath the
sheltering drapery, just as clowns in
the circus do today. Early in the nine
teenth century rocking horses came
into fashion, after which, in 1867
horses were shown at the Paris expo

chauvlnlsm.

A chauyinist IS one who is absurdly
jealous OF his country's homer or
pulled up with an exaggerated sense
OF national glory The words "chau-
whist" and "chauvinism" are taken
from the name OF Nicolas chauvin. a
soldier OF Napoleon, who was SO no.
torious for his exaggerated and. de-
monstratiye devotion to the imperial
cause that he was caricatured on the
stage. and his name came TO stand for
all people who work mischief by their
unreasoning. irascible and vaingior-

That animals are sensitive to the

cent seismic troubles in various coun.
tries give numerous examples of this
singular faculty which many animals
possess. For instaHce, in Japan
horses set Up an unusual agitation
whenever a seismic shock is near at
hand. In Central America dogs and
cats fee from houses, and the inEabi-
tants have become so accustomed to
this that dizzy follow the example Of
the animals and leave their dwellings
so as to escape danger In Italy it has
been observed that birds LETT their
nests and flew up to a great height in

the earthquake took place. However,
at the time when the earthquake
shocks were produced the birds ut

duration of the earthquake. 1t is as
serted that in Sicily cocks crow and
dogs howl just before an earthquake.
