Origin Of Japanese Language.

1.-THE closest relation of the jap
anese tongue Is with ancient Hebrew,
although, in some cases. words show
great resemblance to Arabic, which
conserves the more archaic features
of the parent speech"
This conclusion has been reached by
DIR. Robert Armistead Stewart of
Johns Hopkins university after an in
vestigation of the origin of the Jap
anese language, according to the ia
pan society, for which he has prepared
a statement. Continuing. he says:
"In the course of the investigations
there were established the mutations
that go far to proving the original
unity for the Aryan and of the Sc,
mitic speech and that explain the
points of correspondence noted be-
tween japanese and Indo-European.
Hence. 1t develops that primarily
through the Semitic, and secondarily
through the European, Japanese
Is related to our English tongue-a
fact that should conduce to quickened
interest of the two peoples in one an
other and lead to better understand

REGULAR CYCLES OF THOUGHT
Waves Passing Through and Agi.
tating the Human Mind.

Just as we find a mathematical rule
at many of the bodily movements, just
so thought may be supposed to have
Its regular cycles. Such or such
thought comes round periodically, in
Its turn. Accidental suggestions, how
ever, so far Interfere with the regular
cycles, that we may find them prac-
tically beyond our power of recogni
ton. Take all this for what it Is
worth, but at any rate you will agree
that there are certain particular
thoughts that do not come up once n
day, nor once a week, but that year
would hardly go round without your
having them pass through your mind.
Here is one which comes up at inter-
walls in this way. Some one speaks Of
1t, and there is an instant and eager
smile of assent In the listener or listen
ers. Yes. indeed; they have often
been struck by it.
All at once conviction flashes
through us that We have been in the
same precise circumstances as at the
present instant. once or many times be-
fore.-Oliver Wendell Holmes.

The water question seems to be set
tied at last. The committee has COM
pleted it's work and each resident of
the Montezuma valley knows just what

About one thousand dollars for every
forty acres and ten years to pay it in.
And then you have paid up water
right as ! understand it. We have
been paying more than that every year

ANOTHER SPHERE FOR WOMEN
Possibility That the Fair Sex Will
Carry OF Honors In Field Of
Naval Architecture.

"The women who have stOrmed the
place in what is perhaps the most
interesting professions in the world"
says Manchester Guardian "Mr.
Chesterton has commented on the odd
fact that while men have been
building houses from the beginning of
time, they have not achieved anything
like perfect house, but the position
as regards ships is still more curious.
Your house may not be a perfect house,
but, with proper precautions, you can
be sure of getting what you planned
and of getting a house that will stand.
Even now It is far otherwise with
ships. Take the case of racing yachts.
Two yachts may be built on similar
plans by the same firm; one will be a
triumphant success. the other rank
failure; no one seems to know why.
Big liners are built nowadays in pairs
or triplets; yet any seafaring man will
maintain that they are entirely distinct
IN every essential particular. and even
In the matter of speed there will al
most certainly be difference. Stranger
than all is the case of warships, which
seem to delight in puzzling their archi-
tects. In the case of one class Of
splendid cruisers in our own navy rad
ical changes had to be made after trial
trips, and 1t Is pretty well known that
some designs have been far from com
ing up to what was expected of them;
yet at this date 1t would have been
supposed that experts could not he de-
celved. However, 1t may perhaps be
said that woman will find natural
affinity for these little peculiarities."
