Coal Girls of Japan.
Young girls in Japan are employed
to perform a task which cannot be
done in the same time and with the
same ease by any other body of wort
folk in the world.
They are engaged at the different
ports in loading the large steamers
with coal. The coal barges are swung
alongside the vessel, from stem to
stern of which is hung a series of
platforms, the broadest nearest the
base and diminishing as they rise. Or
each of these platforms a girl stands
Men on the barges fill baskets con
taining about two buckets of coal each
and pass them to the girl standing or
the lowest platform. She passes their
to the girl above her, and a continuous
and unbroken line of baskets passes
into the vessel from 10 in the morning
until 4 in the afternoon.
The girls will handle from O0 to 7(
baskets of coal a minute and over a
thousand tons of coal a day. This
really arduous toil they perform ai
if it were mere play, for they keep uI
a running fire of jokes, and their
laughter is continuous. They ofter
break into a song, the notes of which
are clear, melodious and stimulating.
A Little Washington.
One day in spring Oeordle found i
tiny cherry tree growing in a corner o
the grounds. When he told papa abou
his "find," papa said he might have
that tree for his very own.
How proud Geordie was of his tree
He watched it closely that spring, wa
tered it several times a day, and tries
to wait patiently for the cherries t(
come. Papa laughed some times an(
said: "You don't give your 'baby' i
cnance to grow, Geordio."
Soon the "baby" was covered witl
tiny blossoms and Geordie knew tha
that meant cherries by and by. He ra'
in to tell Momsle: "Bushels and bush
els of cherries, Momsie, and every sin
gle one of 'em for you!'
"Dear me!" said Momai. "I
should get sick eating all those cher
ries, Geordie. You'll have to help me.'
And Geordie hugged her and promisee
that he would.
But a week later a big storm came
and the ground beneath the little tre,
was strewn with torn petals. Geordle
'most cried when he saw it. "Only one
branchful of flowers left, Momsie."
But that one branch danced in thi
warm breezes, and pretty soon the
blossoms fell off of themselves, ant
Geordie could see the little, hard
green cherries there.
"I counted 15 cherries, Momsie, tru
ly I did. It ain't-I mean it isn't
so many as we thought.' he said dole
fully, but soon he brightened up again
"Well, you can't get sick eating onli
15 cherries, Momsie."
Just then Harold Conklin came over
to play, bringing his fireman's suit and
his red express wagon. "Let's pla,
fire," said Geordie, "and the trees cam
be the burning houses."
"All right." said Harold. He usni
ally did say that to everything Geordie
proposed.
So off dashed the cxpress wagon,
drawn by two prancing horses, andl
drew up before a burning barn, near
the "baby" tree; but to you or me the
barn would have looked like an old
stump. There the firemen alighted and
swarmed up to the top of the blazing
building.
"We can chop this rotten old stump
if we like," said one brave fireman.
"Papa's going to cut it down some
day."
"All right," replied the other. So
Geordle and he hacked away until
Geordie, with one sharp blow, broke
of a great limb, which went crashing
down almost on top of Harold.
Now, I don't know how it happened,
but the falling limb crashed through
the "baby" tree, and the dear little
branch that bore the cherries was split
off close to the trunk.
Poor Geordie. He threw himself on
the grass and cried and cried, till Har
old, after vainly trying to comfort him,
ran home very much frightened.
Still Geordle lay there, till at last
somebody came and took him in her
lap, shaking with sobs, and said:
"Don't cry so hard, dearie. Momsie is
orry that Harold broke your little
tree, but papa will give you another,
and next year there will be two trees
ull of cherries."
Then Geordle's sobs ceased and he
lifted up his head bravely. "But,
hfomsle, it wasn't Harold that broke
my 'baby.' It was me-" he choked,
then went on--"I chopped the old
stump-it was a barn, you know-and
it fell-and broke my tree all to pieces
--so I mustn't have 'nother tree 'cause
I broke this one."
And to Geordie's surprise, Moms!e
hugged him tighter and kissed him
and called him her "brave little Wash
ington."
So Geordie waited another year for
his cherries, but next tinme the "baby"
tree was loaded down, and Momsie
really did have "bushels and bujiels"
of cherries, all that she could eat

Tha Chipmunk.
As we walk through the winter
woods, we shall feel that they are less
leserted if we remember that many of
the creatures which added so much to
the interest of our summer rambles
are quite close to us, even though we
ran neither see nor hear them. In this
hollow stump, a family of flying squir
-es are sound asleep; beneath that
rest tree trunk, bright colored snakes
are coiled round each other in a. ball
which would fill a water pail. In the
side of the hill, there, a pair of wood
hucks are curled up and wrapped in
leepest slumber, and among the damp
laves and earth with which they
>locked the entrance to tbeir burrow, a
pet, green -frog squats, waiting for
the spring.'

·rr~rur- ·ll sh a.r
I' tl·tip~a h
I have heard the chipmunk referred
to as "the painted squirrel," and cer
tainly no other of our little fur bearers
is more beautifully marked than he.
His back is brownish grays with seven
longitudinal stripes-five of them black
and two of them of a yellowish tinge.
There is a small black spot above his
nose, his forehead is orange, and his
underparts are white. Occasionally al
binos are seen, and now and then one
is found which is jet black. The body
is rather slender and graceful in its
curves, and the tail only moderately
bushy. All the feet are delicately
formed, the hind ones having five toes
and the front ones four toes and the
rudiment of a thumb.
The most interesting thing about the
mouth of the chipmunk is the fact that
he has two cheek pouches, one on
either side, each with an opening be
tween the incisor and molar teeth.
These pouches are his market baskets,
and in them he can carry the nuts,
seeds and berries on which he feeds.
He is a very agile little fellow, and
of a playful disposition. From early
spring until the fall he may be seen
in almost any New England wood,
scampering in and out of the
t walls and stone heaps, cr sitting on a
s stump near the entrance of his bur
row, eating a cherry pit or a hazel
nut. As one watches him sitting there
r so calmly he seems to have his mind
on nothing but what he is eating, yet
another step may be e'.zogh to send
him squeaking to the farthest corner
of his underground retreat.
He is not a tree climber; that is to
say, he doesn't care for climbing; but
if he is surprised away from home he
s will often dash up a tree for several
3 feet and hang there, with his body
[ pressed close to the trunk, until the
danger is over. But he looks most un
comfortable, and is doubtless very glad
L to get down again.
B The chipmunk usually makes his
s burrow under the roots of a tree, in a
bank, or beneath an old wall or stone
heap. There is a main tunnel, often
1 more or less winding, which contains
1 a nest large enough to accommodate
a family of five or six. From this run
lateral galleries, which are used as
storehouses, and into these the thrifty
L little fellow carries food all through
f the autumn and until stopped by the
t cold weather. Among the provisions
e thus stored away are hickory nuts, ha
zel nuts, wheat, buckwhcat, acorns an¢
grass seeds. When out gathering these
good things he stuffs them into his
cheek pouches and then scampers
home, looking very much like a boy
with toothache on both sides of his
face. He generally pauses for a mo
ment at the mouth of the burrow, and
then darts down into it to discharge
t his cargo. In a few min::tcs he is back
again, with all the swelling gone from
his face, and away he goes for another
load. When carrying hickory nuts he
has been observed to bite off the sharp
ends before putting them into his
pouches.
When the cold weather sets in he re
tires to his snug nest, and through the
winter, when hunger prompts him, he
goes into the storehouse for refresh
ments. The galleries no doubt also
afford him an opportunity to stretch
his limbs and take a little exercise
occasionally. He evident'y makes al
lowance for very long winters, as
there is often a good deal of food left
over when the warm weather comes
again.
On sunny afternoons in the latter
part of February and the beginning of
March, the chipmunk comes out for
a breath of fresh air, ana to sun him
self on an old stump, perhaps, for an
r hour or so. As the weather gets warm
er he stays out longer, until by and by
" he is out all day long.
The young, four or eve in number,
are usually born in May. There is
probably another litter late in the sum
mer. These little fellows make very
beautiful, gentle pete If kept in con
finement, however, they should have
plenty of room, and constant care is
required to keep them happy and in
good health. They should never be
kept at large where there are cats or
dogs, for sooner or later they are sure
to be killed. A beautifutl squirrel i
had not long ago skipped sway from
me as I was feeding it, and it was
killed by a cat before I had a chance
to move in its defence.
The chief enemy of the chipmunk is
the white weasel. Hawks and owls,
foxes, pinks and wildcats all prey upon
him whenever they get tbe chanVe,
but once in his burrow he can set all
these at defiance. The weasel alone,
with his long, snaky body, can follow
him to the very end of his tunnel, and
in a few minutes can kill him and al1
his family by biting through their
skrlls.
Chipmunk hbir if cannot be held up
as a saint, for he is 7vry partial to
birds' eggs and fonder etii of young
tirds. Perhaps it is Just as well that
his climbing poweis are no letter than
they are. It is that fant alone which
prevents him from being as great a
rascal as the zad squirrel.-Ernest
Howard Baynes, in Har'ford Times.
With the Tide.
"F'Tew people have 'any idea of how
fast the tide runs or of how far it
will carry an object in a very few
hours," said the Captain of pne of the
Dock Department's steam launches.
"Not very long ago a raft of forty or
fifty piles broke up and went adrift
one night at the foot of East Twenty
fourth street. As these piles cost all
the way from $8 to $220 apiece, they
were worth chasing, so just as soon
as the loss was discovered in the
morning I started out.
"The search continued down the
East River and along the Brooklyn
side through Buttermilk Channel, but
without results. Ovrr on the south
shore of Governors Island we found
eight or ten of the missing sticks. We
ran along down by Bay Ridge, and had

She pretended to be indignant at frst,

THE BEET SUGAR INDU8TRT.

the production of beet ear. At al
events, It was such two ag. We
publish elsewhere a lear weittems
1899, and signed by M~. Oxnard ad
Mr. Cutting. the chiefs _o this ild
try on the eastern side of the Seely
Mountains, showing that this was the
happy condition of the trade at that
time. If parties masquerading as bet
sugar producers are besieging the
President and Congress at this
ment, and pretending that they will be
ruined if Cuban sugar 1s admitted teb
six months at half the present rates of
duty their false pretences ought to be
exposed.
The letter of Messrs. Onard and
Cutting was probably written for the
purpose of inducing the farmers of the
Mississippi Valley to go more largely
into the cultivation of beets for the
sugar factories. This was a laudable
motive for telling the truth and show
Ing the large profits which awaited
both the beet grower and the mana·e
turer if the Industry were persever
ingly and intelligently prosecuted. To
this end it was pointed out that farm
era could clear $65 per acre by ealti
vating beets, and might even make
$100. But in order to assure the eeli
vator that he would not be exposed to
reverses by possible changes in the
tariff. they proceeded to show that the
industry stood In no need of proteetion.
The beet sugar lndustry, these gen
tlemen say, "stands on as firm a basls
as any business in the country." They
point out the fact-a very importeat
one-that their product comes out as a
finished article, refined and granulated.
It is not. like cane sugar grown in the
West India Islands, a black and ofes
sive paste, which must be carried in
wagons to the seaboard and thence by
ships to the United States where, at.
ter another handling, it is put through
a costly refinery, and then shipped by
rail to the consumer, who may poses.
bly be in Nebraska. alongside a beet
sugar factory, which turns out the sr
fined and granulated article at one tell
swoop. Indeed, the advantages of the
producer of beet sugar for supplying
the domestic consumption are very
great. We have no doubt that Messrs.
Oxnard and Cutting are within bounds
when they say that="sugar can be pro
duced here cheaper than it can be in
Europe." The reasons for this are
that
"The sugar industry is, after all,
merely an agricultural one. We can
undersell Europe in all other crape,
and sugar is no exception."
It follows as naturally as the making
of flour from wheat If we can peen
dues wheat cheaper than Europe, thea
naturally we can produce flour eherp
er., as we do.
But the writers of the letter do net
depend upon a-priori reasonlng to peve
that they can make sugar at a predt
without tariff protection. They polat
to the fact that under the MeKhiley
tariff of 1800, when sugar was tree t
duty, the price of the article was far
cents per pound. Yet a net proat of 8
per ton was made by the beet sugar
factories under those conditions, apt
counting any bounty on the home pro"
duction of sugar. They boast that
they made this profit while workaig
under absolute free trade, and they
have a right to be proud of this esult
of their skill and Industry. May
beet sugar factories bad been started

ness. SBlnce then great progres has
been made, both here and abroad, Li
the cualtlvation and manipulatea of tbhe
beet. What was imporslble thirty
years ago is now entirely teasilble. The
industry is already on a solid and sen
during basi. There are ~toarue in
the United States, these gentlemen
tell us in their letter, capable of using
350,000 tons of beets per annum at a
profit of $3 per ton, and this weuld
make a profit of $1,050,000 as the Is
come to be earned under absolute free
trade.
It must be plain to readers of this
letter, signed by the eaptai s of the
beet sugar industry, that the people L
