There is n constant play of these va riations over the magnetic fields, and the cause of this play or chance, although exhaustively theorized upon, never lias, lieen exactly explained, the Carnegie scientists said. These magnetic changes niake the utilization of the nun in.igne tie ship and its instrument fin. I the reparation of new charts constantly necessary. For instance n mariner us ing a magnetic chart prepared by tlie Institution ten years ago could not ulcer a.; accurately as if he consulted a chart prepared hut a year ago. The magnetic ship made an absolute myth out of the general belief that the compass always points directly north. It added convincing proof to the scientific theory that there are only two Inngitii din n lines, one of them extreiuidy irre gular, where mich a tiling occurs. When JAP WOMEN AWAKING TO THEIR REAL POSITION TOKIO, Feb. 7. (Correspondence of The Associated I'risss.) "Japanese women are lieginning to awake to their real position," declared Representative Ichinonirva in the Diet while favoring the hill to abolish the law which pre vents women from attending political meetings or joining ixilitical associa tions. The measure which was supported hy members of all parties in the House is regarded as nn important step in the emancipation of Japanese women. "Socialism and women's suffrage,'' continued Representative Ichiuomiya, who Itelong to the governmental Sicyu kai party, "constitute the two great stn-ams" of the world wide social mote leent. The "women of Jupnn are coming into eontact' with the hroatl current of international thought. It is quite n:it . ural ami right that the fair sex should, under these circumstances, aspire tu share with men, political privileges. "Tlie women are now allowed to dis cuss ami read journals and books deal ing with political problems, and yet they are denied the right to attend political meetings. This is nt once absurd and unwise, and if the government does not make way for the natural claim of the women the time may come when the authorities tuny Had themselves forced to do so through tho ever growing pres sure of the progressive times." Representative Matsimioto, Independ ent, was another warm advocate of the proposed change. "In giving the llu. (H.'O.tMH) women of Japan," he said, "a chance of acquiring political knowledge the government will take a broad stride towards real, national development. Women should jint only be admitted into public ujeetings of political significance, but should also be entitled to the riglit of organizing political bodies of their own if occasion requires. The self wakening of the fair sex is a fact that Itsnnot be. gainsaid. Society has at gained such n marked advancement that, without political knowledge and compre tension, no women cau bo competent wives and mothers iu the future." Not only should the objectionable reg ulation be abolished in the opinion of Representative Koyama of the Kenseikai opposition party, but the law forbidding laborers to organize unions should be lone away with. , (VjTlie time has pass ed," emphasized' the speaker, " when women and laborprs eon lc pressed down with impunity." A committee is now considering the v.omen 's bill WANT WESTERNER ON INTER STATE COMMERCE COMMISSION. (By The Associated Press.) WASHINGTON, March HI.

"1 met Mr. Octagon on the street to duy and he told me a moving tale illus trating the unwisdom of jumping to cmielusiiHis. The other evening when he stepped onto the front porch to see if the newspaper had come, hn found a sample pnekuge of snuff, which had been left there by some immoral dis tributor. "Mr. Oct upon had never taken a pinch of snutT in his life, nnd he wns curious to know what the effects were. Curiosity, 1 may renmrk incidentally. Is another weakness responsible for much trouble and suffering, und I trust you will guurd tigulnst It hereafter, , Mrs. Jiggers. It leads elderly land ladies to ransack the trunks of their boarders and read old letters which were not meant for nlien eyes. The fact thnt you are blushing shows Out you are not entirely calloused. "Well, Mr. c-ctaguu put the packet of snuff in his vest pocket and sat around the fire until his wife left the room on some errand, nnd then he tore ; open the paper and Inhaled h few grains of the stuff. He says lie thought he would sneeze the top of his head off, und dislocate his cars, lie whooped and kerchooed until you could have heard him half a mile away, nnd then his wife came rushing in. " 'Ebonczer Octagon,' said she, 'you go to lied this minute or you'll be down with pneumonia tomorrow. I)oi,'t stop to argue 1 won't hear a word ! oft w ith you ! ' tctagon couldn't get in a word, and didn't want to very much, being ashamed to have his wife know he was experimenting with snuff; so he trun died off to bed at seven o'clock in the evening, and his wife rubbed goose grease ull over his neck and chest and piled pounds of blankets on hi:.i, and made him drink three or four gal lons of yarb tea that tasted like the morning after the Fourth of July, and he lay there sweating ull night, the most miserable man in town, all be cause his wife possessed the feminine weakness for jumping to conclusions. 'So let us be on our guard ugainst such meLtal lnflnnltlen, Mrs. Jiggers, and meanwhile I would suggest that you replenish the maple sirup i-ittker.
