Japan and the Cherry Blossom

No flower has entered japanese history, htera-
ture, at and religious thought longer or more
richly than our sakura or Japanese cherry. 1t
was only natural, therefore, that foreign visitors
to this country began to call 1t the land of cherry
blossoms and that we have chosen sakura as our
national flower by common consent. Our army has
adopted the blossom as Its insignia as an express
sion Of the national ideal Of always being ready
to die for a cause, after the manner of sakura,
which falls in the height Of natural glory and
human admiration without the slightest desire to
linger In the sordid ~world.-From Herald Of Asia.

OF HEARTS.

Probably the worlds marrying record for men
was created by that notorious bigamist, George
Witzof, whose marriages have been estimated at
about 800. In the space of a single week he
went through marriage ceremonies with ten
women.
An amazing matrimonial record, too. was that
Of a certain John Watson. This "5uggler OF
hearts" became acquainted with the eight daugh-
tiers of a brewer. Within a year he had goae
through a form Of marriage with each Of the
eight sisters, 9Sd had succeeded in ~decamping
