TELLS OF COMRADE'S DEATH Illustrative Instance of the Heroic Spiirit of the Japanese Soldier. The English edition of the Japa nese Graphic, published in Tokio. throws many interesting sidelights on the war and brings the people near to Occidental readers. The fol lowing report of the death of a sol dier. Harukichi Ozawa. was sent to the bereaved family by his friend. Sankichi Kobayshi: "Alas: Sankichi has missed a great consolation tod*y. May 16 is a me morial day that Sankichi will never forget as long as he retains his senses On the very day I, with Mr. Earuki chi, was secretly sent to Loah.shan on an important mission. "The enemy gradually increased in number from 70 or So to 120 or 130. We were now convinced that death could not be escaped, yet still we kept firing, while, at times, trying to make them believe us -to be numer ous, we cried many orders and charg es. This ruse however, was not ef fective, for the enemy threatened to shoot us all in a body. Seeing the state of things we endeavored to make a dash for freedom- dow,n the stee) mountain pass. "At this juncture Mr. Harukichi was shot through the shoulder and the same shot grazed my right leg. Mr. Haruk; hi fell down firt and then I did the s.ame. Blood gushed out copiously and we were both of . us dved crimson. But we wer.- not killed yet, and I said: 'Mr. Ozawa, are you able to move?' His answer was: 'I am all right. Hok are you?' When I 'Eold him that my case was slight and called for no anxiety, he raised him-:i and said: 'Come now, let us go We must not suffer our selves to die before we make a re port.' "Thus urging me, he ran rapidly about half a mile under cover of the trees, when accidentally fell down, stumbling against the root of a r"t 'ten tree. Upon his fall he sai-2 gasp) ing with pain: 'Farewell; I am done for now. Don't mind me, but run for y'our life!' "I endeavore:1 to raise him, saying: 'Don't talk so hopelessly,' but he only shook his head. I could not mend matters, and so parted with him v.1th tears in mhy eyes, saying: 'Then I cannot help you, but depend upon it, I will avenge you at any cost.' I quickly rejoined the main body and made a detailed report. A party of us then hastened to where Mr. Hiar ukiehi was iying. WThen he saw its approachi"g he stood up and, shout ing, 'Banzai!' passed awey to another world.. "Not an oEcer but was moved to tears, not a~ soldier who witnesed his brave comrade die but thought of avenging him. Now Laohushan has fallen into our hands, which fact may to some extent ease his implacable resentment. Such being the truth, if the news of this glorious death shall dispel some of the sadness of his rel atives and friends, nothing shall ex ceed the joy of Sankichi." Food For the Stock. Those who have tested the use of cooked and uncooked foods for stoc':, more particularly for swine, agree that the uncooked foods, are by far the most digestible. This opinion would delight the vegetarians who urge uin cooked fruits and vegatables as being more wholesome. Yet there are two sides to 'the story, as usual. There seems to be no denying the value of the uncooked food, with animals at any rate, but we all know that a quan tity of raw fruits and vegetables caten by humans during the summer is apt to create a disturbance of the diges tive organs. Not always does it cause loosene~s of the bowels, but aiity of the stomach, which is v'erv~ ainful. Is it not fair to assume that if uncoo ked food hias this effe,ct Onl he human siomach that it must have sne had effect on the stomach of the farm animal? This may he a litcle far-;etched, but experience has taught the writer meal a day during the winter is ben that. without exception, one warm eficial to the animals. Even our horses have a warm mash, and it has been well cooked, coo. The poultry have the warm cooked mash and the hot corn at night every other day, and thrive on it. This being our ex perience, our argument is that ani mals should have cooked food occa sionally, but that most of their meals should consist of food not cooked. Fun With a Dime. Kansas Cicv Star. Just to have a litle fun, Glen Shep herd, ticket seller at the Orpheum. placed a dime under the glass over which the theatre's customers pass their adimission money. The coin looked as though it was on top of the glass. A few minutes later a man came in and h) tight two seats. He noticed the dime and decided to ap propriate it. After leaving the win dow he stepped around where he could not be seen by the ticket seller and reached for the dime. Finding the coin under the glass the man beat a huried retreat while Shephard laughed. The next one to "bite" was a woman who bought her tickets and then said: "Pardon me, but you are rather careless, young man. Here's a dime that belongs to you." Finding she couldn't push the coin to the tick et seller, she said: "Oh, I see, old Mister Smarty," and left. The next one was a man who tried to push the dime with 15 cents of his own money in for a quarter seat. Then came a pretty girl. After getting her tickets, she said: "Some one has left ten cents of his change here." "It's yours, then." replied Shepherd. 'Thank you." she said. Then she tried 'to pick it up. She started away blushing, but returned. "Say," she said. "I'm glad you didn't put three dimes un der there. I might have gotten mix ed and tried to buy my tickets of the 30 cents. That's what you look like to me." Shepherd took the dime out at once. You Will Never be Sorry For putting the best possible con struction upon the doings of others.

Burroughs-Really, old man, I can't do that. Mlarkley-But youI've got it to spare today. Burroughs-I know, but there's no VALUE OF THE BIRCH. What Old-Time Writers Regarded as Its Specialty. Old writers in mentioning birch trees seldom failed to say solemnly that they were useful to grow branches with which to give boys thrashings. Turner regards the sup ply of "flexible, pendent branches" for purposes of punishment as the chief merit of the tree. Coles also based his estimate of the birch chiefly on its use in the supply of rods as instruments of punishment, for he writes, "The civil uses whereunto the birch serveth are many; as, for the punishment of children, both at home and at school; for it hath an admir able influence upon them to quiet them when they are out of order, and therefore, some call it make-peace." In ancient Rome the faces of the lic tors, with which they cleared the way for the magistrates, were form ed with rods of birch, and their in fluence was usually sufficient to in sure a rapid dispersion of men as sembled where they would impede the passage of the administrators of the law. From that time to within a comparatively recenti period the birchen rod was regarded as one of the most important deterrents of ju venile depravity. Fatalism Among the Welsh. London Express. An epidemic of scarlet fever, which is raging at Cogninan, near Aberyst wyth, Wales, owes much of its viru lence to the spirit of fatalism which prevails among the Welsh. The people believe that if they are fated to catch -The fever no precau tions will save them from it, and that, on the other hand, they can come in contact with it with impuni-ty if it is not their fate to be infected. This spirit of fatalism is shown by the Welsh custom of holding "wylno sau," or prayer meetings, at the house of a dead person. The friends of the dead crowd into the house and remain for an hour or two regardless of the cause of death. At the end of the service they march in procession around the coffin to take a last look. Although ministers of religion and members of public ' dies have utter ed vehement protests, the custom of the "wylnosau" continues to flourish, and in more than one instance it has been proved to be directly responsi ble for the spread of 'the infection. The Joker's Joke. Milwaukee Sentinel. Elson T. Thurber of Detroit who was once a newspaper man in that city, but who has abandoned that field and taken to the prosaic occu pation of selling flavoring extracts. was at 'the P!ankington house, the centre of a s-tory-telling group. The head of our firm hay a trying experience last Fourth of July," said Mr. Thurber, as the conversation slackened. "He thought he would play a funny joke on his family, so a day or so before the holiday he bought one of these candy boxes made in imitation of a cannon crack er. He secreted this in the pantry, where he thought it would be safe. But his little son, about 8 years old, discovered the firecracker, and also discovered that it was filled with candy. So he helped himself to the contents and finally, finding the box empty, he made' way with it and sub sitnted a re-al canno~n cracker. "F5urth of Juily came and the head of the family, smiling broadly at his aproachin1g joke. came. down stairs andi placing his big firecracker in the middle of the breakfast table. Then, regardless of his wvife's expostula tions, touched a match to the fuse, never thinking but what it was the candy box on the table. "His son and heir astutely vanished from the scene about thIs time. In about thirty seconds there was an ex plosion ~that wrecked a once happy breakfast table, and one hour later the worst spanked boy in Detroit had sobbingly confessed to an irate father why the joke had failed."
