WEST IDEAS
IN JAPAN ARE
NOT VISIBLE
i NEW YORK, Dec. 20.—At the end
i of a 17-day voyage from here we ar
j rived off Yokohama. There weren’t
> any battleships in sight; nothing but a
> million little boats called sampans,
! looking exactly as though they had
i sailed out of old prints we saw in
i school. At long intervals a motor boat
11 passed, a clumsy affair seeming to
' have a lot of engine trouble.
i At the customs house, ready to take
) us to the hotel, were 500 rickshaws
> and two automobiles, the latter of the
) type around which center all the
) jokes. The trip to the hotel was an
) eye-opener. We looked around for
> i horses, but didn’t see any, as all vehi
| cles are drawn by men, occasionally
) relieved by a sleepy team of oxen.
) On several corners were men in
> smart-looking uniforms, carrying
> swords. Ah, our first glimpse of the
) army, we thought, but they were po
, licemen. As we rode through the
■ streets we strained our eyes looking
1 for the western ideas the Japanese
| have been appropriating so industri
1 ously, but they were not in sight. Lit
j tie boys were playing ball in their
■ wooden clogs; women with unfastened
j kimonas walked through the streets
I indifferent to the gaze of western
j eyes; men carried the skirts of their
j kimonas up to their waists so the
j edges would not be muddled by the
' streets. Tiny shops were everywhere.
All through the day we looked for
western ideas, but we saw only two; a
j member of the court dressed in a
silk hat of 1898 vintage and a shabby
Prince Albert coat that came to his
knees. That night we read in a Yoko
hama paper that the government de
sired to show the Japanese an aero
plane and that one was being .carried
throughout Japan for exhibition in
various cities. It would be in Yoko
hama the following day.
We decided instead of viewing the
lone aeroplane to take a trip to Ka
mikura, the fashionable watering re
sort, and see as much of rural Japan
on the way as we could in six hours.
We started at 8 next morning, and
two minutes after we had passed the
city limits of Yokahoma we were in
the middle ages. Every man and
woman was working in the rice fields
or on a farm with implements which
their ancestors had used for centuries.
Villages were neat, tidy affairs,
without factories. The only western
ideas we saw during the morning
were picture post card stands and
American cigarettes. We tried to
smoke some of the latter, but the
Japanese matches are for ornamental
purposes only. ,
When the automobiles passed little
children—the only sign of future sol
diers—they waved their hands and
shouted “Banzsri.” We were told

that when the motor cars first put in
an appearance the children threw
stones at them. One day the emperor
gave a decree to school principals ask
ing children to wave their hands and
shout a greeting of welcome to pass
ing tourists in motor cars. This was
read in all schools in Japan. The em
peror’s merest tvish is law. Over
night the hostility disappeared and
now when you ride in an auto down a
country lane in Japan you feel like a
king must in riding through the
streets of a European capital.
Not seeing any Japanese peril in
a\country of agriculturists and small
shop keepers, we decided to go to the
city billed as “the Chicago of Japan,”
where we must certainly see the thou
sands of plants that at a moment’s
notice could be turned into ammuni
tion factories. But, again we were
disappointed. It was more like mun
cie, Indiana.
BEAUTIFUL SNOW.
Oh, the snow, the snow, the whirling snow,
Filling the sky and whole world below;
i ’Tis always wandering to and fro,
As though not knowing where to go.
i
i Restless, unbidden, this whitest snow sprite
Drifts to earth’s bosom by daytime or night.
Swiftly or slowly, heavy or light,
It scatters its feathers,—wonderful sight!
I
These drop like a mantle to cover all,
That reeks unsavory, greater or Small;
To hide from our vision with its white pall
The dark stains of earth-life, where e’er they fall.
Noiselessly, uncannily, whirling by,
i Drifting, swirling, bewildering to try
I To fill deepest canyons ’mong mountains high
Or reach the black storm clouds mounted in sky.
1 It rides in the arms of the blizzard wild,
That roars from the Northland, old Arctic’s child,
It sinks to sleep softly in ocean wave mild,
And in old volcano’s crater ’tis piled.
Speechless, resistless, ’tis never alone,
GliSt’ning in moonlight on hillside or stone,
In mem’ry of man it will stifle a groan,
For sinning he must not lightly atone.
A veil o’er the face of dead musher it flings
A requium dirge it tirelessly wings
“Requiscat in Pace,’’ from softest harp’s strings
From sorrow it abstracts deep poison’s stings.
This beautiful snow so heavenly fair,
Is like unto seraph’s wings in air:
Or tresses of angels, who, pair by pair,
Are scattering their blessings everywhere.
This glorious snow so transparent, pure,
May aptly earth’s children from shadows allure,
Its lessons in purity teach with a cure,
And assist all who think of Heaven to make sure.
—May L. Kellogg.
THE DARCY MILL
(Patent Applied For)
The Darcy Mill is designed to meet the need of the mine owner and
prospector who wants to develop his own mine or open up ore bodie-s with
a view of disposing of the property, to work rich stringers of pav ere
to mill and ship concentrates or to try out a property before purchasing
—at as low a cost as possible.
It is not a toy mill or a makeshift in any way but a mill constructed
on scientific principles and etiual in efficiency as any stamp of the same
weight. The 2000 pound mill has two stamps of 325 pounds each and drop
at 110 blows per minute for each stamp. The number of blows and the
force of the drop can be increased very easily by placing springs on the
stamp stems or the W'eight of the blow be increased with additional
weights, which we furnish when necessary.
It occupies a space 4x4 feet; no piece weighs over 100 pounds, and is
easy to move, pack, or set up, and us«?s less power and less repairs than
any other. The frame, battery blocks, etc., are made of Washington fir,
strongly bolted with rods to stand all strains; guides have large wearing
surfaces; in fact the mill is so constructed that any one can handle it
satisfactorily. Shoes and dies are of special hard iron with chilled faces,
screens easily removed—the whole front and back can be removed so as
to get at the shoes and dies. Tappets arranged to clamp on a screw
thread so that the wear can be easily taken up. No expensive machine
work to pay for in repairs, in fact everything about the mill is simple,
! compact and durable.
3 It is the simplest mill to start your mine with, as it is an easy mat
ter to add two or four more stamps or to increase the output by adding
the «*xtra weights without any alterations in the mill.
We can furnish the complete mill or just the iron wok, or lease them
to responsible parties if they show' us their properties are O. K. We can
furnish engines, concentrators, copper plates, rock crushers, jigs, tables,
etc., at market prices.
A vast amount of ore could'be put on the market by using one small
mill for coarse crushing and jig the pulp, w'hich w'ill save the coarse
metals and get rid of the lightest, and the middlings recrushed in another
small mill and this pulp run over concentrators or tables. This plan will
enable a lot of low grade%r«s to be w’orked at a profit which it is impos
j sible to do in any other way.
Write us if you have such properties or if y?>u wish further particulars.
Yours truly?

IT’S A REAL PLEASURE
to view the new wall decorations on
view here exclusively. They are so
unconventional, so out of the common
and so unusually artistically attrac
tive. If you plan to repaper - you
should by all means see these new
papers. To decide without doing so
is apt to result in regret later.
