UNREST IN JAPAN.

In 1876 tall chimney was as rare
In Japan us it was in Europe In the
year 1900. Now much Of the country
is rs highly industrialized as the Ruhr
or New England. There has been a
flow Of labor to the towns, congestion,
the growth OF the factory system, an
Increase Of wealth. The Eastern en-
pire has, within little more than 80
years, organized its economic life
largely on the lines Of western indus
trial countries, says the Baltimore
American. It is beginning to develop,
too, the social friction that seems to 90
with such institutions. Until recently
trade unions and strikes were non-ex-
istent in Japan. Now 10000 workers
ut Kobe walk out, and not only are
they not suppressed by the police, but
they win considerable popular sympa-
thy and strengthen their unions.
Whether, as some predict, the rising
tide of labor unrest will bring meas
.ure OF democracy to Japan, certain it
is that the newly industrialiZed coun-
try will have to face and solve in some
manner the same conflict between en-
ploycr and employee that for so long
has troubled Western nations.

The plea for more complete knowl-
edge Of the workings of motorcar is
good as far as 1t goes, but driving the
car is much a matter of temperament,
after all, Men who know how to
build an automobile and who can tell
from the sound Of its motor whether
1t is working properly, who know all
about the brakes and the gears, etc.
frequently find themselves unable to
drive a car, They have the theory OF
the machine, but they lack the perfect
coordination necessary. One of the

Meaning Of cIeroy.

The word clergy, like the word
clerk. which is the Latin clericus in
Anglcized form. does not refer ex

all who have any pretension toward

Norman kings Of England, enacted ar
ordinance in 1887 known by the title
BENEFIT Of Clergy" in accordance
with which an accused man could saw

CLAY PIPES USED BY ROMANS
Discovery Raises interesting Cues.
ton as to What the Rulers of
the World Smoked.

About thirty years ago potsherds OF
pipe bowls us thick as a mans thumb
were found In the course Of the exca-
walton Of n Roman castle in the vlcin-
ity Of Hanan. The bowls were made
of gray clay, ana Drowned by heat.
Subsequently, numerous fragments OF
what were evidently clay pipes We're
unearthed in the ruins OF Roman set
Elements in Switzerland and at ALI
gust-on-I Rhine, or Augusta Raura-
corum as it was called by the ancient
Romans. Careful examination proved
that the potsherds were parts Of clay
pipes much like the clay pipes Of the
present.day Dutch fishermen, the only
difference being that the stem Of the
Roman pipe was very short, and prob.
ably a thick straw was used as Il
mouthpiece. Some Of the eXcavated
pipe bowls have hinges. indicating that
tta Romans used pipes with covers.
There arises the question, what did
the Romans smokeW X Is possible
that inhalatlon or the smoke OF GER
tain plants was as common in the an
Client Roman empire as the use Of
certain medicines Is today in this coun'
try, and the people. by-and-by, be
came accustomed to smoking aromatic
narcotics, like lavender, to while time
away The fact that smoking pipes
were excavated In ancient Roman
castles in Switzerland and Germany
indicates that barbarian mercenaries
in the Roman army adopted Their
southern masters custom. During the
migration Of The nations, smoking.
like other customs OF civilized ancient
times. was lost in Europe, TO be re
vlved more than thousand years
later when Spanlards carried tobacco
from America TO the cid continent.
