SAMURA| SWORD

BEAUTY
".
Works of WarIike Art Are
Much Sought by All
!, Collectors

There are not many objects of
greater rarity and artistic or his
toric interest than an old sword
of Japan of the Samurai period;
they are always highly priced by
their possessors and are in con-
slant demand not only by art con.
noisseurs and collectors, but by
museums. The far.famed blades Of
Toledo and Syria were clumsy as
compared with those of old Japan,
which, by single deft stroke,
would sever a mans head in twain.
There was a time when a man 8
rank could be determined by the
quality Of his armature. A person
magnificently CARRIED, with an or
binary weapon by his side, would be
adjudged of low degree; while to a
poorly dressed person wearing a
fine sword, would be extended dis
tinguished homage.
A fortune was frequently invested
in arms, a rich noble often pos
sessing 500 swords, some Of them
costing 81 ,400, and the daimios
and wealthy mobiles We'd with each

the cunning workmanship Of the
artist-artisan.
The profession Of the armorer was
esteemed a most honorable one, in
the medieval society of Japan, and
often a skillful artificer was en-
nobied by the emperor.
The polishing and finishing Of a
blade was long and tedious process,
and prior to giving the final touches
the master-armorer was accustomed
to don his court suit in token Of
the profound respect in which he
held his calling. The signature OF
the armorer was always appended to
a sword of superior Workmanship.
The gods were presumed to preside
over the feGging OF weapons; pro-
pitiatory offerings to the blood:

shop and his image was sometimes
engraved upon the blade.
The sword was thought to be en-
lowed with miraculous virtues, and
the superstit.ous believed that III its
trenchant blade was enshrined the
spirit of Il beneficent divinity, WHO
guided, the warriors arm in battle
and shielded. him from danger.
Legends were sometimes engraved
upon the hit, such as: "Our deg
tiny is in the hands of the gods,
but a skillful swordsman need not
fear DEATH"
The etiquette of wearing the sword
was formal and explicit, and every

FRENCH CABINETS LIFE
AVERAGES Nine MONTHS
Painleve's First and Second Were

PARIS, November IA. - Premier
Painleves new cabinet, his third, is
the seventy first government OF
France since the third republic was
set up in 1872. This makes the aver
age life of a French government about
months. Painleve's first government
lasted months and 10 days, and
his second abandoned power after 8
months and 10 days. Mathematically
considered, his new government is
entitled, therefore, to an existence OF
at least Is months to bring him
up to the average. Parliamentary eX-
perts, however, forecast that he may,
on the contrary, in his third expert
ence as the head Of the government
surpass his first for brevity of dura-
ton. In forming his cabinet M. Pain
leve made a try for Il speed record.
He did we'll. reducing the average
time of two days to a little under "a
hours, but he fell just couple hours
short of NJ. Poincare's record in the
Spring of 1924.
When the ex-President former his
second cabinet he astonished every
body by announcing its makeup before
they had observed that he had gone
about the job. He had done it all
by telephone and the new cabinet
was in conference within "a hours
after NJ Poincare had accepted the
mission to form another ministry.
