There is considerable dissatis
faction in Japan over the terms of
peace. It is said a revolution is
threatened. We had a better opin
ion than that of the Japanese.
Rtjwka tried to play the hog by
claiming the peace term allowed
her the privilege to fortify her half
of the island of Sakhalin, and
dcuiad the Japanese the same priv-
lege.

Broadly' this means, the protec

early, in my opinion, to go into
details and I believe nearly all arc
familiar with mv policy. I am
not responsible for an active cam

READY FOR BATTLE.
,Japi Do Not Enjoy Idea of Peace Under
the Terms
Lidiapudze, Manchuria, Septem
ber 5. Japanese are continuing
preparations for a battle. This has
caused astonishment, coming at
the moment when the peace treaty
is on the eve of being signed at
Portsmouth. The Russian advance
posts report that Japanese troops
arc very much dissatisfied with the
peace agreement.
The terms of pdice arc the sub
ject of discussion everywhere. In
the Russian army the prevailing
spirit is one of satisfaction and
even of lively rejoicing, though
general confidence is expressed
that the Russian troops would be
victorious if they had to fight
another battle. The feeliug of
ninny of the officers may be sum
med up iii' the words of an eminent
commander:
' "As a soldier I am greatly cha
grined, but as a citizen I rejoice at
the conclusion of peace."
Three thousand Japanese who
on August 27 descended on Port
Dekastries set fire to a grass cov
ered steppe and the conflagration
took on serious proportions.

Reflections of a Bachelor.
A dangerous thing about an
heiress losing all her money is that
all her good looks go with it.
A nice thing about having a bald
head is you don't have to worry
about when your hair turns gray.
One of the queerest thing about
loving a girl is the way she be
lieves vou when she says she
doesn't.
When a woman tells you that
they don't sit on the floor to put
on their stockings, what makes
them think you think so?
There is never any need to lie to
your wife if you can only get her
into a frame of mind where she
will not believe anything you say.

A Lost Chance.
A man recently died as the re
sult of worrying over his inability
to alleviate an imaginary itclftng
of his leg that had been amputated
a short time before. It is remark

ou that amputated leg. Southern

The inhabitants of Southern
Chile arc said to foretell the weath

It consists of a cast off shell of a
crab. The dead shell is white in

by the appearance of small red
dots, as the moisture in the air in

How to Do Things.
This should be a study of the
capable ut -co-date farmer. I re
member reading in an old magazine
a stor , as I remember it, in which
a boy educated in our common
schools was, by some power of
magical art, transported back to
the ages before any new inventions
or discoveries in science were made
to mitigate toil. He was thrown
among a primitive or semisavage
people. He first went with a party
to hunt the elk. The elk was sur
rounded and killed with a stone
headed club. The boy wished for
his rifle and was asked what a rifle
is. He explained its uses and said
it was made of iron or steel and
loaded with powder and lead.
But what are iron and steel and
lead?" asked the chief. Can you
show us how to make these
things?" But the young boy could
give no rational explanation of the
processes of making iron or steel
or lead. He ventured to say that
the gunpowder used was made, he
thought, of charcoal and salpeter,
omitting mention of sulphur; but
while the chief knew what charcoal
was, he had no conception of
salpeter and the boy could not
enlighten him. The boy described
a railroad and a steam engine, but
when asked by the chief to make
one he confessed his inability to
do so.. It was the same thing
when asked to make a clock to tell
the time of day. He could do
nothing. When asked what made
the tides, a subject in which the
chief took a great interest, he could
not explain the influence of the
moon upon the waters of the ocean.
After numerous other questions,
the boy proposed that instead of
using torches the chief should use
candles. Fortunately for the rep
utation of the boy, he knew how
to make a dip candle, which he
proceeded to do, and for this the
chief was very thankful. The
whole practical knowledge of the
useful arts of this boy was confin
ed to that of making a tallow dip.
