The Funny Things One Sees ' in Smiling Round the World 1 B’ MARSHALL P. WILDER (Copyright, by Joseph B. Bowles.)

Japan compels a more rigorous examination at her various ports of entry than any other country. China makes no examination whatever, perhaps on the principle that it is difficult to sweeten a bad egg. All holders of official positions in Japan are obliged to wear European dress, and the little Japs who boarded our steamer looked, in their long, green coats, elaborately ornamented, like schoolboys in their fathers’ clothes. They are very important little people, you must know; but one of these came to grief in a manner speedy as it was unexpected.

Everything is so neat and clean in Japan, it looks as if somebody had got up. before breakfast to sweep and dust the whole country. Prince Haseba, in an after-dinner speech at Spokane, said: “If you should visit a Japanese house you would be obliged to remove your shoes at the doorway. Japanese floors are beautifully kept. I know of some: houses where ‘3O or 40 servants bave no other duty than the polishing of the floors.” o

And Japan is the land of unrealities. The whole country is a toy shop. ¥verything is small. The horses are all ponies; the chickens bantams; the dogs small and shy—with apologetic manners—they wouldn’t presume to bark at your heels without first asking permission; the oysters are about as large as a quarter; clams no larger than a dime; bananas not more than four or five inches long; and oranges

A JAPANESE ARTIST DRAWS A PI

about the size of lady-apples. Yes, everything is small. I never felt so much at home in my life. .

Japanese art has had many admirers and many detractors. The latter have likened their china, sprawling with dragons and alive with grinning faces, to a fit of the jim-jams; their sunflowers to jellyfish and their chrysanthemums to cartwheels.

Its admirers claim that all you have to do is to study up its symbols, and then go ahead. But it strikes me that by the time you've learned the symbols it would be time to die. For instance, when a Japanese artist draws a picture of an April evening, a dyspeptic moon, a nightingale and a couple of plum trees, and asks you its meaning, I'll wager that if you stood first on one foot and then on the other for two mortal hours you couldn’t give the fellow an answer. It's dollars to doughnuts you couldn’t tell the nightingale from a fishhawk, and you couldn’t tell what he was doing on the slum tree, or on the moon—it don’t matter which—if they gave you” the whole business—the hawk, the plum tree, the moon and the April evening

—to take home to your wife for a birthday present. For, my dear fellowman, that picture means happiuess! yes, happiness. And if you can’t gee the artist’s meaning, and—what’s more to the point—get your wife to see it, yould better stay right in the artist’s studio and—

But you won't! You'll rush straight home with the picture under your arm, and you’]l rush up to your wife and, in an insane endeavor to expatiate on the complex beauties of the thing, you'll say: ;

“Look, Maria! just see this! A present for your birthday—didn’'t forget you, did 1? Here you are—great! Look at the- willowy moon, and the nightingale sky, and the pium-hawk—" And then she’ll burst into tears, and ery: “I knew it! I knew it! I've seen it coming! Oh, I knew it!” “Know what, for heaven’s sake?”

“That you'd begin to see things! Stopping off at that corner nights has done it—l knew it would!—A plumhawk! Oh, Archibald! that you should come to this! Oh, oh!—"" And there you are!—hysterics; the telephone; the doctor; and, let us ‘hope, a “quick curtain,” as they say at the theater. : * . - You prop the casus belli on your knee and thus apostropHize it: “You call yourself a moon, do you? Why, a half-baked soda biscuit is a queen to you! And you're a night ingale, are you? Why, you splay-foot-ed, wry-neck, hollow-back, shark-nose nightmare! a setting hen with the wind-cackles is a bird of paradise to you! What did that idiotic Bilkins, with his infernal ‘symbols’ mean by letting me in $25 for this? Yes, $25! and ‘what's the result? Maria throwing fits, and the doctor’s bill another twenty-five, and nothing to show for the fifty but this dumbasted Japanese brain storm!

~ “A symbol of happiness, eh? Well, it hasn’t brought much happiness to my home! A plum tree! Looks more like a gooseberry bush. Tl'll bet the plums on it would sour a barrel of molasses! :

“‘Patriotism,” said that ass of a Bilkins, ‘is sometimes indicated by a spray of cherry blossoms.’ Well, I've seen it indicated round the 17th of March by a sprig of shamrock, and more times round the Fourth of July by a red, white and blue rosette, but nobody needed an interpreter in either case to tell what they were the ‘symbol' of. .

“Grace and quietness are indicated by the willowy tree and the swallow, eh? Very well; I admit the willow tree. For gracefulness she’s all to the good. But the swallow for quietness! Well, I've seen some swallows that wouldn’'t go in . that class—not for nickels. One swallow don't make a gummer, but two will get away with a whisky-straight in a second and a half; and three more will make a man’s tongue go like a mill-clapper, while three more will bust up all the quietness left over from a generation of country Sabbaths. “And this little game cock perched on a drum signifies good government? Well, that’'s a stretch of imagination with a vengeance! Looks more like a sparrow on a pancake-griddle. Good

CTURE OF AN APRIL EVENING.

government, eh? I reckon they don’t need any over there, or they’d get something bigger than his drumsticks for a symbol. His purple nibs hardly looks equal to the job. I should say scratching worms in the back yard was more in hkis line.

“Well, I've had an alcoholic sufficiency of Japanese art; my reputation for sobriety with my wife is gone to the four winds; I'm fifty out of pocket, and nothing—absolutely nothing—to show for it but you! you brain-twisted, colicky, jaundiced paranoiac! “It’s the furnace fire for yours!”™ * L * “ On the other hand, no style of art is so fascinating to occidental minds. The daintiness of conception, the charm of color, the spring-time treshness of atmosphere that pervades each and every effort of the oriental workman possesses a charm wholly individual and one which it is difficult to resist.

. As I have said, the scheme must be studied, the symbols 'learned; but to the dilettante this.is ever a wellspring of pleasure, and one that will never go dry. . 40 “The system of threes” or of ‘“ones,” once learned, captivates the fancy—for things artistic are nothing if not fanciful in this oriental land—and holds the imagination in spite of oneself. The art-etiquette, so to speak, of a Japanese interior is enchanting, when one has learned it. 'There is only one bunch of flowers—sometimes only a single expressive blossom—in a room. There is but one picture. But this oneness must be at just such a time and in just such a place. Can you not understand why? Love is not always responsive to love’'s demands. Solitude, at times, is sweeter and more to be desired. So the picture is hung; the flower placed. o

Every flower has a meaning. . Certain flowers must never be seen tc gether. Certain others must never be seen apart. Then, again, everything goes in threes—blossoms, boughs, or sprays. Even furniture has a meaning. The details of this etiquette are endless and, to the occidental mind, bewildering unless one “has imiagination,” or at least an esthetic sense to which its poetic features can appeal. In the matter of coloring alone Japanese art leads the world; the secret is their own. Their slides, etc., notably those by Kimbei, Japan’'s greatest colorist, are unsurpassed by any heretofore attempted. . Though Japan is the land of beautiful bric-a-brac, none is ever displayed. The precious vase, rich with gorgeous lacquer; the picture, beautiful with poetic symbols; the carving, that has taken years of patient cunning to create, these are never displayed on wall or cabinet, but lovked away in safe or storeroom to be brought out as a special honor to guest or visitor whose coming their host wishes to celebrate with the highest rites of eastern hospitality. “Jf we had our precious treasures always beforeeour eyes,” they say, “they would then become too common, and we should tire of them, and that ‘must never be!” '

MADE FROM COTTAGE CHEESE.

Many Savory Compounds That Wlll : Be Greatly Rellshed.

To make cottage cheese, use clabbered milk that is stif. Put on the fire and stir until curd has formed. When cooked—do not boil—strain through a colander, after which it will be ready for use. The following savory dishes may be made with the curd: Cottage cheese breakfast dish—To one pint of .the curd add one tablespoonful of butter. Mix well, add salt and pepper to taste, after which add cne well-beaten egg. Have skillet piping hot with a little butter melted therein. Turn the curd-and stir constantly until the whole has become melted like wax Serve in a hot dish with toast.

Cottage cheese luncheon dish—Prepare as for breakfast, add a half-cup of grated cream cheese. When well melted pour into a mold and put in ice box. Slice and serve with pie. ' Luncheon dish—Mix with the curd a little cream and a dash of salt, add a cupful of Maraschino cherries or a cupful of seeded raisins cut in half with scissors. :

Cottage cheese salad—Place some of the curd in a dish, mixing with it a lit tle cream and mayonnaise dressing. Serve on lettuce leaves and wafers. Cottage cheese sandwiches—Serve the above salad on thin slices of bread, lightly buttered. Serve on lettuce leaves. '

The ahove curd prepared with cream and a little tart jelly added will be found to be delicious as a meat.relish. DRESSI®G FOR THE SALAD. Properly to Mix Ingredients Is the 3 Whole Secret of Success. Rub an ice-cold bowl with a piece of garlic. Also rub with the garlic the crusty end of a piece of French bread. Place the bread beneath the leaves of the salad, letting it remain until the dressed salad is served. Into the cold garlic-rubbed bowl put three-fourths of a tablespoonful of salt, black pepper and Hungarian paprica sifted together. Pour in two full tablespoonfuls of the best olive ofl. Mix thoroughly with'silver fork or spoon and add one tablespoonful of lemon juice. When the oil and lemon juice are thoroughly blended add a scant tablespoonful of vinegar and stir until the mixture is thoroughly smooth. If an oily dressing is desired omit the vinegar. = Cut the top from a fresh green pepper, place in the bowl and pour the dressing into it. Let the whole stand for five minutes. Drain the dressing from the pepper and pour it over the crisp salad, serve in five minutes or longer. This recipe provides enough for two individual portions of salad.

Indian Curry:

Take 1% pounds of mutton and after seasoning with pepper and salt cover it with water and simmer until it is tender. Boil one pound of rice separately. After the mutton: is tender melt, in another pan, one tablespoonful of butter and one tablespoonful of lard and in this fry one large omnion; add, and cook#for a minute, two level tablespoonfuls of curry powder, then add the broth from the mutton and thicken with two tablespdonfuls of flour. Add to this one-fourth cup of shredded cocoanut and the juice of half a lemon and pour the mixture over the meat. The rice should be garnished with raisins and. almonds fried in butter, and if a banana is sliced up and eaten with each portion of the rice and curry it makes a good and wholesome meal.

Novel Hanging Basket.

Take & large, sound sweet potato, remove the top for some distanee down, remove the inside, leaving a wall all around and a thicker one at the bottom. Bore three holes at equal distances half-inch from the top. Into these put suspending cords which unite at top. Tie, fill with water even to the holes, place in a sunny window. It should be covered with green shoots in a few weeks. Some of the sprays can be trained upward, others allowed to droop. The red skin sweet potato has a pretty streak of silver in its foliage. Put a small piece of eharcoal in the water to keep it pure. A carrot treated in the same manner sends forth a mass of lovely, feathery foliage not unlike a fern.

Sweetbreads with Peas. 'Take three pairs of sweetbreads and cut each one into four slices, season with salt and pepper and roll in flour. Fry in porcetain lined frying pan in butter for five or six minutes on each side. Remove and put on hot platter around the edge and cover with the following sauce: Mix together a scant ounce of butter, a half a teaspoon of lemon juice, good pinch of salt and dash of white pepper. Mix together with a fork and spread over the sweetbreads. In the center of the platter arrange a can of French peas which have been heated with butter.

Sweethread Patties.

Cook a pair of sweetbreads until tender, in a very little water, take out and chop fine, season with salt and pepper. Keep the water in which the sweetbreads were cooked, add to it half a pint of cream, tablespoon: of butter and twe of flour blended to thicken it. Throw in this dressing the chopped sweetbreads, and just before serving add three hard boiled eggs chopped finely. Have your patty shells heated before filling, or use pa per shells. : -

Jelly Sauce.

One-half cupful jelly (currant, grape or crab apple), three-fourths cupful boiling water, one-half level table gpoonful cornstarch, one level table spoonful butter, one tablespoonful lemon juice. Beat the jelly to a cream, then add the boiling water, and when dissolved add the cornstarch, diluted with a little cold water.

TEMPERANCE ~ LESSON

Sanday School Lesson for March 29, 1908 Specially Prepared for This Paper

LESSON TEXT.—Proverbs 23:29-35. Memory verse, 31 : GOLDEN TEXT.—“At last it biteth like & serpent and stingeth like an adder.”— Prov. 23:32.

SCRIPTURE arranged by Prof. J. Wallace Brown of Missouri, for a responsive reading exercise: THE DRUNKARD’S PROGRESS. : A Dirge of Drink, e I An Enigma of the Ages. Who hath-woe? ‘Who hath sorrow? Who hath contentions? ‘Who hath complaining? Who hath wounds without cause? Who hath redness of eyes? , 1L " The Curt Answer of Wisdom. They that tarry long at the wine; They that go to seek out mixed wine, ’ 111. 4 A Strict Moral Pointed. Look not thou upon the wine . ‘When it is red, ‘When it sparkleth in the cup, ‘When it goeth down smoothly.

AV The Bitter End. At last it biteth like a serpent, And stingeth like an adder. Thine eyes shall behold strange things, Andt thy heart shall utter perverse things. : : ‘Yea, thou shalt be as he that lieth down in the midst of the sea, ; Or as he that lieth upon the top of a mast.. - i . “ : *v' The Drunkard’s Last Waking Soliloquy -They have stricken me, . And I was not hurt; - . They have beaten me, . And I felt it not; When shall I awake? : ‘I will seek it yet again. v An Enigma of the Ages. V. 29. Here we have a series of questions which are used most eflec;tively to emphasize the evils of strong drink. T : v ;- “Who hath woe?” Woes of body and woes of mind; woes present and woes to come; woes in one’s self, woes in one’s family; pains, diseases, poverty. e “Who hath contentions?”’ Quarrels, fightings, inflamed passions ready to give and take offense. . And also fightings within, conflicts between desire and conscience, between appetite and all hopes for this life and the life to come. .

‘“Who hath babbling?” Foolish talking, vile conversation, noisy demonstrations, revelation of secrets. His tongue is “set on fire of hell.” The R. V. translates: “Who hath complaining?” and cause for complaining. The drinker complains of fate, of God, of circumstances, of friends, of everything and everybody, except himself the real cause of all his complaints. “Who hath wounds without cause?” Needless, from unprovoked disputes and brawls, from accidents caused by the effects of drinking. “Who hath redness of eyes?”’ Dimming his vision, red with weeping, making “his eyes blush for the sins of his mouth.” : : The Curt Answer of Wisdom. V. 30. “They that tarry long at the wine.” The tendency of strong drink is to continue drinking, to spend hours, often the whole night, in carousals. “They . that go to seek mixed wine,” spiced, drugged, medicated, thus increasing its intoxicating power. . Almost all sins against the flesh, gluttony, lust, debaucheries of every kind, are connected with, inflamed by, made more deadly and incurable by intoxicating liquors. ' : A Strict Moral Pointed.

V. 81. “Look not thou upon the wine.” Do not put yourself in the way of temptation. He who goes freely "into temptation is already more than half fallen. “When it is red.” Red wines, of & rich golden-red color, were much esteemed. “Giveth his color in the cup,” sparkling with brilliant appearance, indicating its more exquisite quality and strength; so that it “moveth itself aright,” R. V., “goeth down smoothly,” in a delightful, pellucid stream, making an act of drinking a delicious pleasure. The Bitter End. V. 82. “At the last it biteth like a gerpent.” - Like a serpent it will be brilliant of color, and guide with easy motion; and like a serpent it will strike its fangs into its victim, sending its deadly poison into his blood. “And stingeth like an adder,” a ‘most venomous genus of serpents. The horned Cerastes adder lurks in the sand, perhaps coiled up in a camel’s footprint, ready to dart at any passer-by. . : There is no better emblem of the results of intemperance than the serpent. Often beautiful in appearance, and secret in its approach, while. the effects are pains that only fire can express. It infects the whole system. It inflames every evil passion. If permitted to go on, it is death. ' The world is full to-day of the sorrows, the burning remorse, the agonies of the body and of the spirit which come from flery serpents of intemper-ance Drunkard’s Last Waking Soliloquy. V. 36.—They have stricken me, .. . and I was not sick; they have beaten me, and I felt it not.” This is the inebriate’s contemptuous answer to the admonitions of those who warn him of his danger. “When shall I awake?” Omit the interrogation, and read “when I shall awake, I will seek it yet again.” His first desire will be for more strong drink. This is a true picture. One of the greatest punishments of drunkenness is this insatiable appetite, that, in spite of all warnings and consequences the drunkard returns again to his cups. :

Feminine Intuition.

_ They stood in the purple gloaming of the hazy twilight. Above them drooped the wistaria; from afar drifted the fragrance of the dewy honeysuckles. It was an evening to inspire the heart and to thrill the soul. “Evangeline,” sighed Hector Montmorency, “I cannot begin to tell you how much I love you.” : “You”—she hesitated—“you might at least try, mightn’t you? If you give me but an inkling perhaps I can guess the rest.” : ; : ‘He should have known better than to think of marrying a woman who was such a good guesser.—Judge.

PERUNA EDITORIAL NO. 2. Dr. Hartman has claimed for many years that Peruna is an EXCELLENT CATARRH REMEDY. Some of the doctor’s critics have disputed the doctor’s claim as to the efficacy of Peruna. ' o Since the ingredients of Peruna are no longer a secret, what do the medical authorities say conocerning the remedies of which Peruna is composed ? Take, for instance, the ingredient HYDRASTIS CANADENSIS, OR GOLDEN SEAL. The United States Dispensatory says of this herbal remedy, that it is largely employed in the treatment of depraved mucous membranes, chronic rhinitis (nasal catarrh), atonic dyspepsia (catarrh of the stomach), chronic intestinal catarrh, catarrhal jaundice (catarrh of the liver), and in diseased mucous membranes of the pelvic organs. It is also resommended for the treatment of various forms of diseases peculiar to women. Another ingredient of Peruna, CORYDALIS FORMOSA, is classed in the United States Dispensatory as a tonic. ; : CEDRON SEEDS is another ingredient of Peruna, an excellent drug that has been very largely overlooked by the medical profession for the past fifty years. THE SEEDS ARE TO BE FOUND IN VERY FEW DRUG STORES. The United States Dispensatory says of the action of cedron that it is used as a bitter tonic.and in the treatment of dysentery, and in intermittent diseases as a SUBSTITUTE FOR QUININE. : : OIL OF COPAIBA, another ingredient of Peruna, is r.htd by the United States Dispensatory as a mild stimulant and diuretic. It acts on the stomach and intestinal tract. It acts as a stimulant on the genito-urinary membranes.

It increases the secretions of the mucous membranes in general. In the mountains of Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee and Carolina, collinsonia canadensis is considered a panacea for many disorders, including headache, colic, cramp, dropsy and indigestion. DR. SCUDDER regards it highly as a remedy in chronic diseases of the lungs, heart disease and asthmsa. These citations ought to be sufficient to show to any candid mind that Peruna is a catarrh remedy. Surely, such herbal remedies, that command the enthusiastic confidence of the highest authorities obtainable, brought together in proper combination, ought to make a catarrh remedy of the highest efficacy. This is our claim, and we are able to substantiate this claim by ample quotations from the HIGHEST MEDICAL AUTHORITIES IN THE WORLD.

Good Eye, Cuchuillin!

Who can set bounds to the soaring imagination of the Celt? An enthusiastic New Yorker recently watching a game of hurling—which resembles lacrosse—between stalwart teams, was moved to ask President Conway of the Irish Athletic association how far a good man could drive the ball. “Well, T’ll tell you,” responded Mr. Conway, with a twinkle in his éye that contradicted his serious speech. " “In the good old days when Cuchuillin was champion of Ireland, the king and all the nobility were assembled - at the great games of Tailtin. Cuchuillin struck up a hurley ball .into the sky, and then walked off to his pavilion and took a ‘drink of potheen, and strolled back to the spot in good time to catch the ball on ‘his ° hurley.”—Harper’s Weekly. i =
