cH0PsTICKS IN JAPAN.
How They Are Used and How They
Arc Served In Public Places.


The use of chopsticks is general in
Japan, except among the richer class
es, who have adopted European knives
and forks, and. to some extent, the
European cuisine. Small bowls of chi
ma or lacquered wood are the usual
table equipment. After the various
solid portions of the food have been
lifted to the mouth with chopsticks the
liquid remaining is slipped from the
bowl.
In the case of rice, which would be
tedious to pick up grain by grain, the
bowl is often raised to the mouth and
the rice shoveled or pushed in with the
chopsticks. 1t is also customary to
pour a little tea into the rice bowl aft
er it has been nearly emptied, and in
this way the few remaining grains OF
rice are washed down as the tea is
drunk
At public places the chopsticks at
each meal must be new. This is indi-
Gated by the fact that the chopsticks
are made from one piece of wood and
are left joined together, as were
matches at one time in the United
States. These new chopsticks are In
cased in thin paper envelope, sealed
at the end, end bearing japanese char
acters advertising either the hotel or
some firm that has furnished them free
to the proprietor for the sake of the
publicity thus gained. Toothpicks,
which are freely used by all Japanese
at meals, are also inclosed in envelopes
that frequently bear advertising mat

Charley Horse.

Charley horse" dreaded by ball
players, is an ailment consisting OF
displacement and structure of the mus
cles of the leg, often the sartorial mus
Gle. The trouble is commonly brought
about, not by running, but by quick
stopping at bases. The player who
''stops on his feet" is almost certain
to acquire the ailment In a short time.
The overworked muscle. slipping out
Of place. knots itself into great lump
and exerts pressure on the surrounding
muscles, producing lameness.
Massaging will bring the muscle
back to place, but the trouble returns
at the next serious strain.
When you see player make long
slide which appears unnecessary, the
reason is that he prefers to scrape of
little skin rather than take chances
on "horsing" himself by stopping
standing up.-Exchange.

The Mattress.

Some one has been hunting up the
history of the mattress. Its beginning
was the collection of rags, husks or
reeds which were bound together and
thrown anywhere to form a resting
place for the kinds and serfs of the
rich. 1t is suggested that their names
of shakedown and makeshift were de-
rived originally from the Arabic word
"matrah.' In the middle ages feather
beds found favor with the wealthy
and the mattress was not used by
them. Inventories of estates owned
by the American colonists show that
mattresses were then worth 5000 each,
being made of hair. In England mat.
tresses of rabbits hair were once used,
and vegetable fibers of various kinds
have served their turn.

EXPLOSIVES OF WARFARE.

War is wholesale fireworks cele,

explosives and fired from rifles. Great
fort destroying projectiles look simply
like gigantic rockets.
The first magazine gun was Ro-
man candle. The first projectlle pro-
PEELED by an explosive was rocket.
The first shrapnel was bomb dis

However, gunpowder-th first ex-
plosivewa was itself mere play stuff for
at least a thousand years before any
body thought of using it for war pur-
poses. 1t was commonly employed in
China for fireworks and crackers dur
ing the earliest centuries of the Chris
tian era. The bombs nowadays drop

torpedoes magnified to make them
