Some Interesting Information About Jap- anese and Korean Hand -Made Papers -They Are of Extraordinary Strength -Aro Yellowish in Color and Leave a Silk-Lik Gloss -Paper Suits For the Soldiers ok the Flowery Kingdom. The results of the enquiries of the commission , of industrial experts, which was appointed by the German 0°1;7 -eminent to visit and- report upon the markets of east Asia show the various markets present excellent prospects for the paper trade and the paper: industry generally, The Corea liand-made papers, thus far very lit- tle know -n in foreign markets, are of mach interest: They are of yellowish color, silk -like gloss and extraordi- nary strength. In purity they are be- hind the better grades of Chinese pa- pers. These papers are made In sheets about 201/2 by 51 inches. Oiled .papers of this kind are used in place of window glass, and very impure but extremely strong board is also made of the same raw material, as well as blotting and wrapping pa- pers. The Japanese hand -made pa- pers are divided into two classes. The so-called "hansi" (half -paper) is loaded with about 20 r per cent. of rice starch; the "minogam" consists entirely of the fiber.- The hansi pa- pers are the stronger and the• coarser and are made in snuffler sizes (abotit 9% by 18 inches), while the .mino- gaini papers are thinner and better and larger -11 by 16 inches.

The prices of hand -made paper have e,e- cently risen .about 15 per cent., ,be- cause the growers of bast denia..nd and obtain higher prices for their product. Printing paper is used m Japan noi. only for printing purposes, but also for writing. The most popular sizes of printing paper are 25 by 27 inches and 31 by 43 inches, flat. The consumption of paper has increased extraordinarily in Japan, and, 1 although the hotne production is large, there is a good market for inipkied paper. Rico straw is an inipOrtant factor in the manufacture Of Japanese in'aohine`made paper; only when there a poor* rice crop is od 'fibre imported to any apprecia- ble extent. I . Among the. f iOst curious things to be seen in Jai an are the jackets and troasers of st .on.g hand-nia,de p iper with which. he Japanese soldiers were supplied during the war be- ta een Japan and China. The seams and buttonholes. were sewn with cot- ton thread. Chines e hand -made pape s are n ade mostly of rice straw, and are col red or stained on 'one' side bz hand; for instance, criniSon for viaiting cards (,which are th'n, large oc avo sh'eet) pale red for bills, yellow sprinkled with gold or, green for wrapping goods., orangoI for wedd ng finery, etc. Large qnantities atal consumed in the Principal place of i s inanufac- ture for decor tting variot s places .of worship, whici are visited by Chi - 'nese from all over the- country., and considerable q iantites are also sent to the adjoining provinces. There is no doubt. that, chea.p imported mach-• ine-niade priutliing papers, stained' or unstained, , coti d successfully compete i . these home-made and hand- made papers. i 044%101nm Peoreges. .

With his daughter Nellie be had corn to hear the renowned singer, or, at any r te, Nellie had come for that purpose. She sat erect and sedate but her father lou ged comfortably in the background and tit ked to friend. ' 'Soon the prima donna's portly figure ap- peared on the stage. All eyes were tu ed upon her, but she slaw only one man, the warrior, whose,,deeds had stirred the w rid. His attude was not flattering. He was till lounging in the background and talkin to his companion. Then the rich, deep voice of the s ger rang out, but the President talked on. "Papa, Parepaa singing," whispered his daughter. "All right, Nellie, she is nob disturbing us. Let her aing," replied the President, indulgently. And she did sing; but the best patfb of the story is that the prjma donnahe d of that answer, and being as jolly as ih was , portly, thoroughly appreciated it. SheI had a good laugh at her own expense ani ad- mired Grant more than ever. ' MATRON AND MAID. Misa Ruth Underhill, this year's golf champion, is a granddaughter of the late Charles A. Dana.

Keep the chickens clean and the house clean. Kaffir corn makes an excellent food for poultry. So long asi, gocel variety of food can be supplied there is little need ot giving condiments or stimulants. Hens should be killed- when 3 years old.'

Leaves aud hay chaff make an excel- lent litter for floors. By throwing grain among it the fowls are kelt busy scratch - leg. It Is not necessary' to thrash out sun - lower seed, sorghum, Kaffir coin or broom corn. Let the fowls pick the seeds from the heads. Ducks are much more easily fed than chickens.

The present is to be a "ring season" unsurpassed in fashion's annals. A striking ring consists of five dia- monds in a straight bar crossing the hoop at right angles. - A pink topaz heart makes an attractive ring. Pink and other colored pearls, as solitaires, are among elegant rings. , A novelty in men's all gold seal rings is 'one differing from the ordinary ring in that the 'surface of the portion usually devoted to the seal is slightly rounded in- stead of flat. Among inexpensive rings, fire opals in various combinations with small Hants are, in favor, as is a small emer- ald or a ruby with one or more diamonds in graceful two and three stone designs. - Jewelers' Circular.
