If q theft takes place in Japanese household, all servants are required to write q certain word with the same brush. The conscience is supposed to hctray its workings in the waves of the ideographs written. Tracing an ideograph involves sucn an effort of muscular directness and undivided at- tention that this device often leads to the discovery of the guilty party. The test is, at all events, more humane thah the ordeal of boiling water, to which accused persons were formerly submitted in Japan.

Song Brings Them Closer.

The song is not nearly so important as the singing of 1t. In numerous places community singing has been re. vived. It has been found that the spirit of the old New England town meeting is brought out by these com. munity songs. After the people have joined their voices in a few familiar numbers they get together on other things. Many churches lost great deal of their power to arouse commu. nicants when they substituted paid choirs for congregational singing.-Ex. change.
