Che "Cbrlstmas
Crouch"

Oily. 1lefe Is scarcely luHliy
but has Christmas Crouch
some one who thinks gifts are foolish
and that great deal Of money Is vast
ed at the season now upon us. He
hates to see money wasted; he hates
to see the Christmas trees cut down;
he thinks 1t is sin to tell the children
the legend about Santa Claus; he scolds
about shopping; he is sorry for the post
man who carries so many bundles; he
says everybody runs into debt at Christ
mas and that the new year gets start
ed in all wrong on account of the debts;
he says the sentiment has all gone out
of Christmas on account of its being
commercialized and that Christmas
trees are menace to life and that once
he knew of house that caught fire
from Christmas tree; he says 1t Is
sin to spend money for flowers at
Christmas.
The Christmas reformer has hundreds
of IDEAS about how Christmas can be
improved. He says the Christmas hol
idays never mean anything to him and
he will be glad when they are all
over.
But Christmas remains Christmas
just the same, for all the grouch's pro-
tests, and will be the same forever;
will laugh at the crouch and his follies
in such wholesome, hearty way that
he will grow ashamed and will join
in the merrymaking in spite Of him
self.

RHEUMA
The Standard Remedy for All Forms
of rheumatism and Kidney
Troubles.

Are you suffering from some form
of rheumatism? Then you need
remedy for that disease only-not a
preparation said to cure all the ills Of
the human body. Rubbing In lini-
ments will only quiet the pain tenn
porarlly but will not remove the
cause
Rhouma cleanses the kidneys OF the
poisonous uric acid secretions; opens
the clogged veins so that the healthy
blood can pass along the dead matter
from the entire system; regulates dis
ordered bowels, and enables a slug
gish liver TO convert thin. impure
blood into rich. life-giving corpuscles.
When this is accomplished there is no
more rheumatism. for the source of
the disease will be wiped out
Rheuma Is free from dangerous
drugs. During the treatment the di-
gesiiye organs are not deranged-
Rheuma creates healthy appetite.

RIP VAN Wrinkles
OF JAPAN IS found
Mountain FaStneSSeS Shelter
Tribe Still Living in 18th
Century
KEEP THE OLD
CUSTOMS OF YEARS

TOXIC, June S.-Japanese ethnol-
ogists have discovered in the noun
tain fastnesses of the island of Kyushu
a curious and ancient people who
have been designated the Rip Van
Wrinkles of Japan. A similar group
has been found in the mountains OF
Hida province Il Is said that both
are of the Heiki family, which de-
scended from a Mikado Of the Ninth
Century. They we're all-powerful in
the Twelfth Century until defeated in
the Japanese War of the Roses by
the Minamoto clan.
History holds that the Heiki fugi-
tives who escaped after the Twelfth
Century battle we're drowned during
their fight. but the recent discovery
of the picturesque clansmen in the
wilds of Kyushu and in the noun
tains of Hida province leads to the
belief that many escaped and settled
in remote mountain districts.
Preserve Old Life.
Shut in by precipitous mountain
peaks, these villagers live an old
world life. just as they must have
centuries ago. One reason for believ-
ing they are the descendants Of the
HeilN is that their style of clothing is
the same as prevailed in Kyoto in the
Heiki epoch. and their dialect resem-
bles somewhat the dialect of Kyoto in
the olden times.
They sing a song which, translated
runs:
Putting off our headgear of mobiles
and our hunting dress. we proceed
into the forest and the recesses of the
mountains as woodcutters, to fell a
tree"
Moreover, the villagers themselves
think they are the descendants of the
Heiki Certainly these people are
vastly different from the ordinary
japanese of today, both in language
| and in custom. The families often
number from 20 to 30 persons and
live together in separate fats. as il
we're, in the came house, but at a
common table as a measure of
economy.
The management of the family is
vested in the head. who exercises alb
solute authority. He occupies a seat
of honor and wears a ceremonial
skirt. He spends most of his time
in receiving visitors and attending 10
social matters. He is exempted from
any manual labor.
Family Serves Heir.
The heir of the family is all i'm
portant, while the rest of the children
are merely servants. He alone car
take a legitimate wife and in turr
have heirs. The smallness Of the clar
has resulted in marriages that arr
sometimes too close and hardl!

ity life is on the whole of high or

ished from the village. The house
are 80 feet long and 80 feet wide
They are more like family hotels AM
always contain a shrine where the an
cestors are paid homage.
The clansmen use no lamps, for thi

Money Measures Conscience,

The city's conscience fund Of 500
for the year was increased by the ad.
dition OF two Ave dollar bills desig-
mated IN an unsigned letter for that
purpose. A few days before a letter
received by the Treasury Department
ut Washington and postmarked New
York contained $4,000 and the state
ment that the sender had paid double
to the United States the amount he
stole and still his Conscience Is no,
satisfied" One OF the hardest work.
ers these hot days is Conscience, "cow-
ard" thing Of "a thousand tongues"
spark Of celestial fire." according to
the person describing it.
There never seemed to be any one
who could satisfactorily define con-
science or analyze It's mental or moral
qualities. The courts. however, recog-
nized 1t n short time ago when they
held valid the beQuest Of $500 to the
conscience fund by RUFUS CLARK OF
Colorado, who wished to make amends
for the guilty knowledge OF a fraud
fifty years before. To those who have
not contributed 1t may he news that
the Government conscience fund is
said to contain more than 100000
and that II Of the contributions was
as much as $4,000 in gold, which was
SEM anonymously to the United States
Consulate in London, and another
was $4,000, sent to the Collector Of
Customs Of this city.
Besides the sum Of $4,000 referred
to above and So, 700 sent from a small
Wisconsin town there are no recent
reports OF large contributions. But
any n who reads will see that ron.
science Is an exacting taskmaster
these days. There Is, perhaps, not so
much apparent activity Down East"
but rest assured the New England
conscience Is at Its work It canno
help 1t, 1t Is always busy.
A Cincinnati railroad man recei we'd
30 cents In payment for stolen trans
portatdon. the Pennsylvania State

word OF explanation, and a Louisiana
firm got a dollar in a letter from \

There could be produced hundreds
more Of Incidents to prove the pres
ence Of this great monitor. The cause
may be the heat, perhaps last winters

conscience Is hard at work in every
place except where 1t 70 most needed.
