THE MILLS OF JAPAN.
They Grind on Day and Night With
No Regard For ounday.
In Japan Sunday Is not regarded, and
the mills do not stop for the day. The
majority of the mills have two holi
days, the Pt uud the 15th. In many
mills the engine starts at G o’clock the
morning ul iLe 2d and runs continu
ously until 0 o'clock the morning of the
15th. then starts at 0 o’clock the morn-
lug of the 10th and runs continuously
until 0 o’clock the morning ot the 1st.
This is as near perpetual motion as
men and m. < Lines < an >tand. No stop
is made for dinner, the hands taking
thirty minutes for dinner in rotation
and spare hands taking the place ot
each band. Each operative works from
6 o’clock to 0 o’clock, with thirty min
utes for dimier. and the night shift
comes on at 0 o'clock. Thirteen to six
term tweive-hour days on a stretch
necessarily make the hands slower
and less etlicient. Though they do not
observe the Lord’s rein day, a good
number of mills have by experience
come to see the material g >od that
comes from having one day in seven
for rest, and one of toe largest groups
of mills observes the -tth, 11th, 1 Mia am!
251h of ea< li month, but do not. as cus
tomary with us. allow a third or half
of tlx* previous day for rest also. The
four rest days are utilized b; the i: an
ageineut to overhaul and clean machin
ery, check up results, instruct green
hands in regard to their duties, etc.
The national holidays «>f which (her'*
arc about ten, are observed by th --
mills, so that even in the mills rnabin
a practiee . f stopping only two days foi
rest tlx* holidays etlect a stop of one or
two more da\ per month.
The hours of work and the number
of rest days vary w ith the locality and
the mill. Each mill has its own sys-
mgh th - ..ether in
some respects, through die Japaues'*
Cotton t-p :,hits' association, in pub
lishing comparative reports, etc., they
are very jealous of each other and kc. p
the details of their business, methods
of operation, etc., a secret from other
mills. This instinctive secrecy, as
shown in other industrial lines, such as
machine shops, shipbuilding, etc., has
made the oliice of consulting engineer
in Japan a very lucrative one, us new
projects cannot copy from old. bntl: '' i'
to call In expert advice to select the
machinery, etc. A slight illustration
of this occurred in my visit, oia suc
cessive days, to two mills not over fif
ty miles apart. The superintendent of
one said a good many erroneous arti
cles were printed about hours run by
Japanese mills: that the great majority
stopped thirty minutes for dinner and
always had at least four rest days a
month. J was in the other mill from
11:30.until 1 o'cl k and saw the meth

Having Fan With the Directory of the
Big C:ty. .
You have all heard : id most of you
have told the story ut the man who
didn't cure to read th dictionary be
cause the subject < - i mged so often.
This is. of course, a funny way of say
ing that ti e dictit>iiar\ is a dry book.
However, one might p rhaps extract
amusement even from a dictionary if
he knew how. Certainly he can gi*t
entertainment from a city directory.
Take, for instance, our own new city
directory. That it has more names
than its immediate p-edecessor and
that this indicates that New York b is
grown just as much in population in
just such n time—these things go with
out saying.
But what reference is made in the
directory to that great matter of Love,
which has ruled the world for no om
knows bow many years? Go through
the book, dear reader, and you will
hud that it contains forty-seven Loves
one Heart and one Lover. There are
twenty Spooners, two Buggers, sixty-
one Darlings, three Dears, five Betts
three Snarks, six Kisses, three Smacks
and ten Hugs.
A study of the dirct >ry shows, too,
that, de-p 'c its boasted democracy.
New York is endowed witii five and a
half column- of Kings, twelve Qitee s. j
one column of Princi s. tw enty-four j
Dukes, thirty- ght Earls and eighty- i
two Lords, i here ire •' :teen Castles |
for all tins royalty to dwell in.
The spiritual welfare of the city j
ought to be well looted after also, for ■
we find lis! -1 ty-three Popes, f<. ;r !

An Ana-ro an woman who bad gone

soon after her arrival to entertain
some important business associates of

and so forth had not yet arrived from

her •‘No. 1 boy."
“Now. boy.’’ she said impressively,
“I entertain three gentlemen ut dinner
tomorrow, very fine gentlemen, 'i '>u
make it all tx-st possible. Must be
uice everything.”
Bowing and scraping, he went off to
inform the other seven servants.
The next evening as she ushered her
friends into the dining hall she gasped
in amazement. Before her was a ta
ble spread with the most exquisite
linen, cut glass, silver and delicate
china. Over it all hung a gorgeous cut
glass chandelier. Course after course
was servej as if by magic.
The instant she could leave her
guests she sought her “No. 1 boy.”
“Boy, boy,” she exclaimed, “where

The boy beamed with satisfaction.
