Japanese Remain Buddhists.

That so per cent of the japanese
living in the sugar plantation camps
Of Hawaii never have been touched
by Christian propaganda, and that
American plantation owners, managers
and others who have helped support
Japanese Buddhist missions, Ibid a
foolish thing, if ever man did," were
two of the statements made by Rev.
Ulysses G. Murphy, representative of
the American Bible society, in a re-
cent address at Honolulu.
Rev. Mr.. Murphy also said that the
elder generation of Japanese living
in the plantation camps, owing to their
isolation, are forty years behind their
native country in thought and under
standing of modern conditions.
Any attempt at Americanization Of
the japanese in Hawaii which leaves
untouched their home life and fails
to recognize that the key to the prob
lem is the Japanese language schools
is foredoomed to failure, Rev. Dir.
Murphy declared.

STRUGGLES ALONG ON $4,000
University of Pennsylvania Law Stu

Wanted, stenographer of unim-
peachable character, experienced in
shorthand and taking dictatiOn, who
will be willing to devote her Sundays

of struggling law student at the Uni

This is the model of stenographic
ability required by the university's
richest student, John Jeffries V of
England, who is struggling" only in
so far as his law work goes, for he
came to this country with the mere
trifie Of $4,000 a year on which to
live, says the Philadelphia Inquirer.
Jeffries, who is second-year stu

but his earnest delving into the intrl-
cacies of Blackstone and his ilk re-
Quire more assistance and he is now
looking for suitable young woman
to add to his staff.
The young EngliShman, who Is the
fifth direct descendant of John Temple,
governor general of Ireland, and has
three cousins in the house of lords, Is
popular among his classmates, who
declare that he is quite democratic, in
spite of the burden of his wealth. He
lives quietly and unpretentiously, and
nothing in his mode of living seems to
indicate that he spends even half of
$4,000 allowed him.

A colored man from Kentucky drove
to a loose leaf tobacco sales ware
house in one of the Indiana cities on
the Ohio with load of tobacco.
When he received his sales slip and

Approaching the cashier he said:
Look here, boss, where Is my
money for this here tObaccO?" The
sales sheet was consulted.
Its like this: the expenses for
weighing, unloading and commission
for selling your tobacco amounted to
more than the tobacco was worth. You
Still owe us just SO CENTS" explained
the cashier.

The TWILIGHT Gate.

The Yomei gate at Nikko is magnifi-
cent. The ceiling of its entrance has
a dragon gazing in eight directions,
and the ceiling of the interior has q
dragon gazing in four directions. The
- pillars of the gate are Of keyaki
wood deliberately carved and inlaid
with all kinds of precious woods. The
beams are 2Ocornered and each square
is painted In minute designs. There
are on this gate innumerable carvings
of dragons and lions all painted and
lacquered profusely. One becomes so
fascinated in studying the details that
he tarries at the gate until the day
wanes. Thus it has come to be called
the Twilight gate.-Florence Peltier in

University Professor Thinks It Is, and
Gives Some cogent Reasons Why
Ii Should Be.

Prof. Raymond Pearl of Johns Hop
kins, after an exhaustive study Of life
probability extending through histor-
&c period of two thousand years, ar
rlves at the conclusion that while
mans possibilities of life at birth and
In earlier stages has been steadily i'm
proving, his expectation Of life at ad-
vanced age has been steadily decreas-
ing. Comparisons ranging from the
Romano-Egyptian to the present day
offer statistical proof. The theoretical
explanation is that in early times, with
less provision for the protection of
babies and infants, only the more rug
ged pulled through Nowadays with
increasing care for childhood, the weak
are carried into adolescence and adult
hood. Where formerly only the fittest
or toughest managed to reach the
shady slope Of life, and were conse-
quently more likely to hang on to ripe
old ages, the salvaging of the weaker
brings them into the fifties and sixties
with less hope of prolonged life. 1t
sounds plausible and may explain the
apparent decrease of longevity. Incl
dentally, his statistics brought out the
fact that while women formerly had
less expectation Of life at all ages,
this has been reversed-another blow
to the tradition Of 1.-THE weaker SEX"
Women now appear to have the great
er probability of prolonged life.
