The - number of male adults who could both read and write In "any language was 539,749, only about one-tulrd of the males of voting age. But the, reg- . istratlon for the legislative elections reached only about 61,500 Jn the is lands, revealing a surprising lndlf- !. ference or distrust ot the new ?ys- L, tern.

'For instance, the report of the Bupe.fintendent of pub lic buildings and grounds just ptfb lished contains the following .'items. The salaries of employes of the White House last year amounted to 84,670. The care1, of the White House grounds, which means the planting of trees and shrubs as well, cost this country j12, 400. The conservatories of the White House are among Its most attractive features. Before the remodeling . of the executive mansion they were con nected with 'the house and occupied" part of the ground now used for. the president's offices. ; One of Dolly Madison's bills was for three hundred dollars: used for flowers for the. en tire year. This year- the green houses "were malntaind at a cost of $53,000. The White House resldents-'cannot, of courser-be employed 4n turning down the gas every time they leave a room, bo it took 19,000 this past year to en able the people to see their way about In the house and grounds.' These are only a few figures of the expenses ot maintaining a first-class establish ment, but- since it is all paid by the government it helps to explain why the job1 and Its . contemptibly small salary is in favocwlth public tnen. - The First Reqilslte f Beauty. , " The first; requisite' of .

"IiobiuRon Crusoe" is a tale of wan derlng and adventure, and that is be cause the English are a wandering race.. Until a short time ago the Japa nese never traveled.. They were even forbidden to build junks above a cer tain size lest they , might be tempted to go too far in them. Nowadays there are tine Japanese steamers, bnt st the time when the good stories grew their theme in Japan i was almost always courage and devotion. x , 4o the year ltoi the head of ihe Re nin family, or clun for this .tale, like "Robinson Crusoe,": Is founded on fact was insulted by a superior officer and attacked him. with a sword. - For this crime the chief "Konln was condemned to slay himself, that being jiie nsual punishment in Japan;- also it was de cided" that his castle and property. should be taken away and his people driven off. Accordingly the chief Benin killed himself. j'- , t The new head of the Bonlns was named KuraroBuke. He Is the. national popular . hero, .of , Japan, much - like Ethan; Allen or Francis Marlon In this country; . It Was Knrarosuke's duty to avenge his master's death In some way. So -he -called the- clan, together to de- lenu iue casue uguiuBr- tub eotuien twbo were to take it. i This was quite proper, according to Japanese Ideas, j'- .When the J were all gathered togeth er Kurarosuke said: "We bave'not met to defend the cnstle, for that, would be useless, We ahouM only In the end be taken and slain. ' Let ns all slay ourselves after; the old Japanese, maa ner and thus . die with. . our , beloved master." ' r .. , - To - this sixty-three of the Bonlns agreed, but the rest wenj; away shak ing their heads. '".-"- , The. cunning Kurarosuke, however, had no notion of killing himself. When the : sixty-three - were a)l together he was sure they at least would not reveal his secret; and) he said to (hem: "We shall neither defend Ihe castle, which would be useless, h nor :1U ourselves. Which would be no better; Bat we shall be patient and walt: wait, wait antil we can kill the man whose Insnlt caus ed our master's death.'fl.'JTien he ex plained his plan, andjpcty-seven.cif tb sixty-three agreed, to It. , ; '" " According to Japanese Ideas, what they endured T was worse even than suicide, for theydld nothing. Instead of trying to avenge the. Insult they wandered about and became mere vag abonds.: It looked as If they were go ing to make no effort to avenge their master,, and this made every one de spise them. Even the children would call opt after one of thenvas hetaggered past: "Hey! ,-There 'goes -a' Rouln".

Bonlns had no pluck st all, these fortjr sevea . vagabonds came together One night and carried the castle of their enemy by assault Then they "put him td death" and quietly awaited their own fate. They were taken, of tourse, and condemned to kill themselves; as their master bad 4o3,?'k;.H; As they were led away In three par ties a ; servant of the fsotjus tcaUed "First Companion,'' a man ot too little consequence to take part In the: fight ing, stood to see ihem pass that he might -carry home, the new.

In 1758, two years after Goldsmith returhed from his wanderings on the continent, he presented himself nt Sur geons' hall for examination as a hos pital mate, with the. view of entering the army or nnvy: but lie suffered the mortification of being rejected as un qualified. " That he might appear be fore the examining surgeon suitably dressed Goldsmith obtained a new suit of clothes, for which Griffiths, the publisher of the Monthly Review, be came security. The clothes were to he returned Immediately when the pur pose was served, or thetdebt was to be discharged. Poor Goldsmith, having failed In , his object and probably dis tressed by urgent want, pnwned the clothes.
