BIRTHDAYS IN JAPAN. All the Girls Celebrate In February, All the Boys In May. The Japanese have a queer way of celebrating birthdays. Instead of a party in June for little Tama and a party in September for little O'Tatsu and a party in December for little Ume there's a party in February in honor of all the little girls and one in May for all little boys. In February every little girl receives from all her grownup relatives and friends gifts of dolls, and besides these dolls her mother takes out of the closet many of the dolls she had when she was a child and some even older dolls that the little girl's grandmother had when she was a little lot, and I dare say there are dolls that belonged to the little girl's great-grandmother and even her great-great-grandmother, qualit dolls in faded clothes of a hundred years and more ago, carefully handed down from mother to daughter ever since. I saw one old doll, about six inches tall, dressed as a daimlo, or great lord of bygone times, in gorgeous brocade robes, covered with steel armor of little overlapping plates, just as beautifully made as if for a real warrior. He wore a tiny helmet and carried two tiny swords not as large as matches. You could draw the swords out of their scabbards just like real ones, and they were as sharp as they could be. Well, for about a week all Japan is one grand dolls' tea party. And then the festival is over, and all the best dolls, even the presents to the little girl, are put carefully away, never to be even looked at for a whole year. I don't see how the little Japanese girls can bear that part of it. Then at the 1st of May comes the boys' festival—the fish festival, it is called. Every family that's lucky enough to have a boy puts up a flag pole in the dooryard, or perhaps several families combine to use the same pole and have it a bigger, handsomer one than one family could afford. On the top of the pole is a gilt ball or else a basket with something bright and tinselly in it. And flying from the pole in the brisk spring winds is a whole string of carp made of oiled paper or cloth, painted in bright colors and anywhere from five to fifteen feet long. Each fish belongs to some particular boy, and the carp is chogen because it is a big, strong fish and not only can swim against the most rapid currents, but in its eagerness to get upstream will leap straight up waterfalls. The gold ball means a treasure, which the great sea accompanied the wind, and every sail and movable thing on the after part of the ship was carried away. The forward part of the vessel was untouched by the storm, which passed away in the distance, leaving a train of foam in its wake. Eight Arrows In the Air at Once. "There is a purely Indian exploit which is recognized as a test of fast shooting," says Mr. Ernest Thompson Seton in Country Life In America. "In this the 'honor' is allowed the archer who can have six arrows in the air at once and the 'high honor' for seven. The Indian record is eight, but not many Indians have made it." Too Advanced For Him. In Chicago there is a principal of one of the public schools who in his college days was considered something of a "shark" at Latin and at many other studies besides. What he did not know about physiology was hardly worth knowing. He was a "grind" and a scholarship man. His little girl, aged six, is now a pupil at the experimental school at the university, where she learns many things out of the order of public school education. Recently she fell and hurt herself. Her father found her crying. "What's the matter, Noreen?" he asked. "I fell and bumped my patella," she replied. Remember this was in Chicago, and not in Boston. Papa was sympathetic. "Poor little girl!" he said, and proceeded with the best intentions to examine her elbow. Noreen broke away in disgust. "Huh!" she snorted. "Haven't you never learned anything? I said my patella! That isn't my elbow. My elbow is my great sesamold." Papa went for a Latin dictionary. The Benefit of Fairy Tales. It is very reasonable to argue that no creation of human fancy could last as fairy tales have lasted through no one knows how many hundreds and thousands of years unless it was very good. For that which is not good and not sound must surely die, and only that which is good and sound shall last through the grinding of the ages. So I believe that parents should fill their children's imaginations full of fairy tales if they would make those imaginations strong and healthy. As for that man or woman who has not these bright and joyous things of fancy flying like golden bees through the dim recesses of his memory, I can only say health, unable to obtain a Turbine to show for years of fruitless One victim of Turkish duplication died in a lunarium. One of the embassies has twenty-five years prosecuting without realizing a cent. Was on Forbidden Ground. "A debating society was formed one of the counties of my county said a Kentucky congressman among the first questions debated 'Resolved, That the negroes had cause for complaint than the IX." It was stipulated that an opened with a speech to sustain sition, every word of which remained to with close attention; chairman. The disputant for active made a few remarks in and then turned to the Bible mentioned reading passages for pose of proving that some of them made by his opponent were not up by the good book. "The chairman stopped him 'Halt right where you are,' Jim go any further. You have gone to the United States for argument Nashville Banner. A Robust Babe. Sir John Richard Robinson "Fifty Years of Fleet Street" an amusing incident during the Swazi deputation from Vaal to England at the close "The Swazi braves went too hard and had an audience of her Queen Victoria. They were obviously received. One of them began to speak, and an interrupted him phrase by phrase." O great mother,' he said, 'to you our babe. Take him. O thy knees; fold him to thy breast the queen, half frightened, etc.' But where is the child? I him. Where is he?' Here, O said the Swazi gravely, at time bringing forward a about six feet high and weigh over 200 pounds. 'He is here' Porter's Report. Anaheim To the Honorable Boardors of the Anaheim Union Wany pany, Gentlemen: The following is my report: Regular employes... CLEANING.. A Gentle Knock. Those who are in the habit of arriving home in the early hours and finding their doors and windows locked and their "folks" asleep beyond the power of the doorbell to awaken them will find comfort in a new recipe for their relief offered by the New York Evening Post. A man who had banged the front door and rattled the knob for nearly an hour appealed to a policeman to help him break a pane of glass or open a window. "It isn't necessary," said the policeman. "I'll wake up your family." He walked up the street to a pile of building material and brought back a piece of board about five feet long. This he slammed flat sided against the side of the house with a tremendous whang. "I guess that'll rouse 'em," he said. "You see, that sort of a blow sets the whole house to vibrating and makes the folks inside dream of dynamite explosions." He had hardly uttered the words when a front window opened and a head appeared. "Oh, officer," gasped a woman's voice, "what in goodness' name was that awful noise?" Good Looks and Conceit. The man's Apollo is generally a comely specimen of flesh and blood, with a blooming cheek and bright eye, who is a credit to his tailor. Women admire a more rugged type, or a type in which a tinge of asceticism is combined with intense nervous strength, or the picturesque may take their fancy. Roughly, the good looking are vain or not, in proportion as they are dowered with the saving salt of humor. So with the women. The pretty dolls may be vain. The nobler and more interesting beauties are probably less so than their plainer sisters, for the simple reason that their physical charms are undoubted and have been tacitly acknowledged ever since they can remember. They shine without effort, and their attention is preoccupied with other things.—London Chronicle. It is very reasonable to argue that no creation of human fancy could last as fairy tales have lasted through no one knows how many hundreds and thousands of years unless it was very good. For that which is not good and not sound must surely die, and only that which is good and sound shall last through the grinding of the ages. So I believe that parents should fill their children's imaginations full of fairy tales if they would make those imaginations strong and healthy. As for that man or woman who has not these bright and joyous things of fancy flying like golden bees through the dim recesses of his memory, I can only say that I think his or her parents must have been neglectful of the earlier training of their child and that I am sorry for that poor soul who has lost so much pleasure out of its life.—Howard Pyle in Book News. As It Looked on the Map. Of every hundred tourists who visit the Canary islands quite seventy-five are British. Naturally, therefore, the natives of the Canary islands take a great interest in everything which affects England. It is perhaps a pity that their general ignorance is not a little less appalling, but their very disregard for accuracy lends a certain "charm" to their conversation. A man in a barber's shop pointed to a dilapidated map of the world which was nailed to the wall, and, putting his fore-finger upon Spain, he exclaimed: "If war breaks out, Spain must retake Gibraltar. Have no fear. The English ships may come down to us because it is all downhill, but after we have crippled them they will not find it so easy to get back to England, because it is all uphill." Deceptions of Wild Birds. Falcons—hawks, the largest species—can compress their features and look very slim if they think it necessary to do so. As to the owls, they can hump up into any position they think most suitable. It is useless to look for these self-preserving traits in any of the family kept in zoological collections, for the birds are so accustomed to see large numbers of people passing and repassing or standing in front of them that they treat the whole matter with perfect indifference. They know that at a certain time their food will be brought to them and that they are otherwise perfectly safe. Then the raptores in a wild state have a bloom on their plumage like the bloom on a bunch of grapes, which is not often seen when in captivity. The Impecunious Turk. Collecting money from Turkey is a heartbreaking enterprise. A distinguished American once went there to collect a debt of $500,000 owing to an English syndicate, which included two members of parliament and a cabinet minister. He expected to see the business through in two or three months. But a foreign ambassador undecided him. "Say three or four months and then you will be as far off from obtaining your money as you are today," he remarked. Men had gone out there to prosecute claims, he added, whose hair had turned gray with the strain to which they were subjected and who had gone home thoroughly broken in. But where is the child? I film. Where is he? 'Here, O' said the Swazi gravely, at time bringing forward a about six feet high and weir over 200 pounds. 'He is here. Porter's Report. Anaheim.

There lived in the village of Arreton, Isle of Wight, many years ago a young man who was betrothed to a young woman. Both were poor and in humble life, but the grandfather of the young man had money, and he fell in love with the young woman and proposed marriage to her. The girl told her lover. He was displeased, but, having pondered over the dilemma, saw a way to extricate himself and his sweetheart from the same. "Marry him," said he to the girl. "He is rich. He cannot live long. When he dies you'll have his money, and I'll have you." She took the advice. By the marriage she became the young man's grandmother. Not long after the old man died, and then she wedded her first betrothed. A Formula For Marriage. The Frankfurter Zeitung has discovered a formula for marriage. Nothing is more certain, it says, than this formula is right. The question asked is what age should a man's bride be? The formula is: Let x be the man's age. Then x+2+7=bride's age. For example, a man is 34; the half of his age is 17; then 17 plus 7 is 24. The bride's age should be 24. For a man of 34, therefore, the proper age for his wife is 24: Take the man of 60. x=60 +2=30+7. The man of 60 must marry a woman of 37. For the juvenile marriages of southern latitudes the formula is equally valid. The hot blooded Castillan, for example, of 18 wishes to marry. The formula says x=18÷2=9+7=10. His wife should be 16 years old. The Edge of a Windstorm. A curious example of how sharply the edge of a windstorm may be defined is reported by the captain of a bark. When off Valparaiso, the captain says, a whirlwind came along and passed over the stern of the vessel. Collecting money from Turkey is a heartbreaking enterprise. A distinguished American once went there to collect a debt of $500,000 owing to an English syndicate, which included two members of parliament and a cabinet minister. He expected to see the business through in two or three months. But a foreign ambassador undecided him. "Say three or four months and then you will be as far off from obtaining your money as you are today," he remarked. Men had gone out there to prosecute claims, he added, whose hair had turned gray with the strain to which they were subjected and who had gone home thoroughly broken in. THE GREAT FAMILY MEDICINE Theford's Black-Draught comes nearer regulating the entire system and keeping the body in health than any other medicine made. It is always ready in any emergency to treat ailments that are frequent in any family, such as indigestion, biliousness, colds, diarrhoea, and stomach aches. Theford's Black-Draught is the standard, never-failing remedy for stomach, bowel, liver and kidney troubles. It is a cure for the domestic ills which so frequently summon the doctor. It is as good for children as it is for grown persons. A dose of this medicine every day will soon cure the most obstinate case of dyspepsia or constipation, and when taken as directed brings quick relief. DAVILLE, ILL., Dec. 23, 1902. Theford's Black-Draught has been our family doctor for five years and we want no other. When any of us feel badly we take a dose and are all right in twelve hours. We have spent lots of money for doctor bills, but get along just as well with Black-Draught.

THE MUSCOVITE'S EXCELSIOR Sequel of Longfellow's Excelsior By WILLIAM F. KIRK The shades of night were falling fast When o'er the Yalu River passed A Cassack who, mid snow and ice, Carried a flag with this device: "Wjhtqjkjalskyroff!" His brow was sternsky, and his beard Made in the breeze a whistling weird. Cold, vodka-numbed, he wished to die But still that pl line waved on high: "Wjhtqjkjalskyroff!" Beware the Japs!" a private said, "Beware you flying pills of lead!" The stubborn Cassack only sneered And muttered, through his icey beard: "Wjhtqjkjalskyroff!" "Stay here," the tavern-keeper cried; "We've got an easy game inside. You ought to win full many a stack." The whiskered horseman answered back: "Wjhtqjkjalskyroff!" A chorus girl lisped, "Mumm's the word: Let's have a bottle and a bird." In vain she coaxed, in vain she cried; The mumbling Muscovite replied: "Wjhtqjkjalskyroff!" They found him at the break of day, On a Korean veldt he lay; And to these minions of the Czarsky A voice came like a falling starsky: "Wjhtqjkjalskyroff!"
