'The Japanese - have two qualities Wheat foreign notions must boar in mind when considering the question of . fend -grabbing or extending their influence lit tho Leer East—they aro warlike and they love the sea. Japun realizes these natural gifts, and now that she hes entered into an al- liance with Great Britain designed to check the advance of Mance, Ger- Many and Russia, there has been a move to develop the stren'th she wields through this love of tbo sea. Since the Japanese boy's home consists of a group of islands dense- .,. largely upon Vele or other proclaim of the sea ho is bred to a familiarity with things marine such as few pos- sess. Inborn fearlessness and rho teaching of his Buddhist or Shinto religion, give physical courage which the Japanese have frequently shown In the past ages, butIlevtr more than in their recent war with Clilna in 1894, and in the march with the allies to Pekin in 1000. Another quality which the training of the sea develops In the Japanese boy is presence of mind and readiness In emergencies. Japan is a country of magnificent deep -water harbors, and, cut up as it is by many inlets, bays, and straits, It offers unusual opportunity for concentrating a fleet AT A1,D'IOST ANY POINT, and then, by moving through interior deep waterways, striking an enemy unexpectedly. Accordingly, extensive aavui centres have been established at Yokohama, Kure, Uraga, Sasso - bo, bfoji, and Nagasaki, At the close of the war with China in 1895, Japan's lighting fleet consisted of forty-three vessels and twenty-six torpedo boats, an aggrogato of 78,774 tons ; of these ten of an aggrogato displacement of 15,055 tons had been captured from the Chinese, namely, ane armor -clad battleship, two stool cruisers. This captured battleship was, until the new ones just futiahed, the first Japan had ever owned ; her fleet until then consisted solely of cruisers and gunboats. With the war in- demnity amounting to 230,000,000 taels secured from China, Japan be- gan immediately a shipbuilding pro- gramme by which she is to have be- fore April, 1904, four first-class battleships of 15,240 tons each, sex drst-class armored cruisers of 9,200 tons each, three second-class cruis- .,;npprs,.of 4,850 tons each, two third- class cruisers of 3,300 tons each, one torpedo depot ship, eleven tor- pedo boat destroyers, and eighty- nine torpedo boats. ?'hese are to be in addition to the vessels 111 service at the time of the receipt of the in- demnity. The contracts were let to the United States, Croat Britain, Gerinany, and Franco, with the re- sult that already more than one- half the total number have been de- livered, and the remaining vessels will be easily FINISHED WITHIN THE TIME. To keep pace with the shipbuilding a sufficient increase in the personnel has also been instituted, and olilcers and men aro ready as the ships are completed. The enlisted men are re- cruited by voluntary enlistment, hy conscription ar enrolment from the fishing fleets, and by transfers of privates in the cyrmy to service with the fleet. Tho officers are educated at the Imperial Naval Colinga at Tokio, the Engineering College at Yokastdka, or the General Naval Schools at Bassebo and TCure, The system of education is very similar to that pursued at the United States Naval Academy at Annapolis, Md. Many of the officers are educated in the academies of the United States and Europe. the .Japanese been!; ad- mitted by special legislative action to enter the various foreign naval schools for purposes of study and observation. Tho ,lapaneso handle their ships Well, and seem to learn rapidly how to profit by the good points in foreign navies, They have no scruple as to the adoption of any plan or de- vice they may see better than that now in use. Unfortunately, the gen- eral unhealthy state of the financial condition of the empire does not al- low large appropriations for coal or for target practice, with the result that in the vkt,unl manoeuvring of the ships and firing of the guns tho offleers and crews 'have comparative- ly little practice.

Some Suggestions Which the Far- niers of Canada Night Adopt.

Four chief objects aro kept in view in organizing these testing essocia- i tions; (1) That rile feed Oren the cows must, us ]much as possible, bo weighed or measured. (2) That each cow's daily milk yield 1s weighod once per week, or at toast sufficiently often so that accidental iuliet:to e may not have any serious ollect. (3) That the . ,.1 r1 .,A• ly often to eliminate accidental in fluences, (4) That un exact ac- count is oust kept in such ovular mar us P a ai. show rel' r to sl o v the relation belle the between butter yield eme the food consumed THE ORIGINAL ASSOCIATION, that of Veen, had 13 uIOin :ors, ag- gregating 300 cows, and the first ye.:r's ecpen:.es were $175; but tl;c Government recognized at. ono) the importance of this movement and gave them a grant of $62,50. Sante of the by-laws of the orig'nal asso- ciation ceclored that: "Teo object of the naociation was to build up race of cows which would give a !large yield of rich milk; the member- ship :should be limited temporarily to (2 or 13, who agret'd to let the milk of each cow bo tested every 14 days; the expenses sheen! Ye dis- tributed in proportion to the fat tests made, and collected twice a year; three directors should be chosen, One of whom should resign every third your after the First two years, and who s"onld elect a pro- sident und secretary -treasurer; the association s':ould continue for fico years, and no member should with- draw before that time, unless on ac- count of removal from the dis- trict." The directors of the associ- ation engaged a "tester" who took s• m 1 sand tested t milk of each a e es }no P cow, and for whose use reliable ap- paratus was bought. The tester aI:o kept exact records of tie mills yield of each cow acid the feed con- sumed In proportion to the yield of butter, and also prepared tables showing the comparative value of the varioes individual cows and fiords as economical producers, so that those cows having special values for breeding purposes might lie selected. At the close of tho first year's work the Government approrrioted $2,500 to he divided between asemei- ations which made propor reports, and the plan spread very rapidly: 13y 1897 it had been clearly demon- strated that the "testers" were also DAII SE FOR ALARM. WHEN YOU GROW WEA1 AND YOUR CHEEKS LOSE THEIR. COLOR. This Means Anaemia, and if Neg- lected Consumption May Fol- low—Dr. Williams' Pink Pills the Only Certain Cure.

Take a piece of woollen cloth, or te pleee of a blanket, and boli it thole mighty in a strong solution of cauatlo soda, and you will find the wool will gradually be eaten away, leaving nothing but the s:celeton. Women do not realize how "' soap substitutes," witiee. are gonerally surcharged with Oda, or how common alkaline soap( destroy their clothing; Consequently they, weak by week, subject costly fabrle to soh treatment. The hands also are immersed for hours in such solutions, resulting In eczema, coarse skin, and brittle nails. The caustic soda may loosen the dirt, but it eats away the fabric and ruins the hands, 'There is no economy in such work. It is so easy for a wcman to test the difference between an alkali charged soap and a neutral washing soap, that It is strange that there is room for tiny but a pure soap on the Canadian market. Sunlight Soap has been tested by chemists and analysts the world over, and Its freedom from free alkali or caustic has bean demonstrated by tho highest medical authorities.

In 1898 $1,250 was appropriated for the support of the various associations. nnfl 1n 1899 tho Veen association again took the lead in including a report as to the rel.!, g of calves and hogs. In the same year at a re. mai mcetirg of ell the local Ag- rio..ltural aesecitttivas the blank forms of the ti:_t associations were fully discussed and unifoi•n) 150111ods agreed upon, ,in 1900 we prod four distinct asso- ciations comprising in all about 240 tot associations, and the results Icompiled from tho reports of the va- rious <list,ricts fmnir,h a great deal of valuable information. For In - :tanto, tho old notion that a larpor flow of milk most necessarily give a lower percentage of fat was dis- proved, Most important of all a co-operation was efloeto'l between the to t ossoc'a ions end the breeders' associations,(bull associations),m d n a chief inspector was appointed in one district, who helped to select the cows entitled to be bred to cer- tain bulls and to supervise the keep- ing of the herd hooks. The "Meoikert Tiefende" senile blanks to the associations, and when. these aro filled publishes them and Penis ocpies to all the mem- bers, Indeed everyone interested in dairying helped the plan along, and.. this explains why there are over 250 such associations.. As an example, of the practical re- sults obtained, three years' work of the Faarup association may bequot- ed. According to the Maell+ert Ti- dende the average results per cow in the herds tested were as follows: lbs. les. fat Year milk button Por cent 1899-1900 5162 191 8,34 1900-1901 5284 202 3:44 11101-1902 6104 238 8.50 This shows an improvement in the average yield of 47 lbs. butter per cow by testing and selecting in three years. The work of these essoCia- tions is evidently the keynote of cheaper milk production, and the co- orerativo plan otters the only means of securing systematic testing. SOME SUGGESTIONS. In my opinion something along the above lines should be worked out in Ganadct, with the creamery or cheese factory as the nucleus of the move- ment. The tester would make the factory his headquarters, and. if the farmers were trusted to do the weigh- ing of the milk and taking of the samples, it would be possible for one man to do the work for all the farms sending milk to tlra average factory. We would require to visit each farm before the test started; take note of all conditions, record tho nurn'bcr, age, etc., of each cow, feed used, etc.; show how the weigh- ing anal sampling should be done; leave enough two ounce bot- tles with initials of farmer and mem bers stamped thereon to take sop- arale samples of two ]nilkings, also blanks for felling in food records ev- ery two weeks. Having thus prepared his patrons they would send in to the factory ort certain clays, the acunple bottles of which the tester would be able to test a largo number daily, and still have time enough for an occasional surpriee visit to the farms. There woulel be no reason for the farnter to weigh or take samples incorrectly, es tho total average of ouob hard Would he known by the patron's daily delivery n.nc) factory test, and any trickery would soon be discov- ered. '!'here is another advantage in this plan and that is that the factory can well 511018) to pay part of the txpenee8, because the testers' visits to the farms will also encourage bet- ter care of.:lnilleebeeter sanitation in I • -• (( caps the til sla -rete. n any D e e bit's Y mei maitre -arta' include tl:c test at Jeae t ateri'. lignritg the evel':go every- day very clay 'tine card' h'e'ifer, being foci. or the fart eeltette5r they aro dry' or in mil eSeeiet is' 1110 clntcial teat; the resat 18 simply n. mutter of book - Ito )1ng.

This Hitherto Incurable Diocese Has at Last Yielded to Medi- cine - The Statement of a Man Cured of a Very Bad Case Four Years .Ago. Quebec, Jan. 12.—(Special)—Phy- sicians and others interested in medicine have been very much inter- estedin a remarkable euro which has been made in this city. If Lilo facts aro as reported and the gen- tleman in question has signed a posi- tive ositive statement giving details and all particulars—this case will mark a new era in the treatment of at least ono hitherto incurable disease. Some few years ago, Mr. Sato Dosrochers, of this city was almost dead with Diabetes. Ito had been ill for over five years and toward the last the symptoms became so very marked as to leave no doubt in the minds of his physicians as to the na- ture of the ailment. Ile had' an unquenchable thirst, his feet were always cold ; he had some very notate pains around his kid- neys. These and many other symp- toms wore all present and n0 ono thobght for a moment that he could ever recover. He tried every remedy for Diabetes that he could hear of but al! failed to do him any good, and when his hope bad almost gone he determined to begin a treatment of Dodd's Kid- nay lls, PromPitiro very commencement ha began to feel a little better day by day, and as the treatment proceed- ed the unfavorable symptoms grew less and less till finally he was com- pletely ootpletely cured, sound and well. astonishing recovery created quite a sensation at the time and many wondering inquiries were made by the doctors and others. It ho hadn't Diabetes then nobody ever bed it, and Diabetes was incurable '1 —Then how could he be cured by Dodd's Kidney Pills ? The cure was only temporary and it would return was what many said, Now. however, after four years have elapsed Mr. Desroehers stoutly declares that 110 has not since had the slightest symptom of 'Isis old trouble. Every one is convinced that Diabetes is curable and that Docld's Kidney Pills will cure it.
