Tokio, Nov. 26.—One of the out- growths of the coronation of the Jap- eanese Emperor is a renewed tnterest in the origin of the Japanese people and in that connection the arrival here of Dr. Frederick Starr of the Univer- sity of Chicago, to resume his studies of the anthropology of Japan in re- cetving much ttention. Dr. Starr is regarded as a foremost authority on the anthropology of Japan and Ko- rea and he will spend four months in these countries in research work along anthropological lines. He is es- veclally well informed in regard to the Ainus. the Japanese aborigines. While in Japan Dr. Starr will live the life of a Japanese. He contem- rjlates paying particular attention to photographic work in an effort to round out his already large series of pictures illustrating the life and. cul- ture of the island empire. He will continue his study of the Buddist sects and will visit the most important Shinto shrines that he has not seen: he hopes also to complete his investigations of Japanese Symbo- lism, ypon which he has been en- gaged several vears. In Korea he plans to make Visits to the more fa- mous Buddhist temples and monas- terles which abound in interesting and almost unknown works of art. He wishes, also, to gather material for a “Monual of Korean Ethnology” and to make the beginnings of an ethno- logical collection along lines which he has long had in mind. He will con- tinue to gather Korean riddles and proverbs, of which he has already a considerable collection. Finally Dr. Starr desires to study rther the administrative work of the apanese in Korea, a work which he has watched with interest ever since Japan annexed that la: “Among other things’ he said, “I shall make a pilgrimage on foot from Tokio to Kioto along the famous high- way, stopping as often as possible at the old stations and inns.” Dr. Starr has made investigation tours in the Congo Free State, Mexico and the Philippine Islands end is an authority on Liberin.

In war time, this round. done by its size and fame, is described in a study, “Rumania, the Pivotal State,” prepared by James Howard Gore for the National Geographic Society. The bulletin describing the strength and organization of Rumania reads as fol- lows: “The Rumanian lands—composed of | the two principalities, Wallachia—first found freedom from the Turk iif the treaty of Paris, sian- ed in 1856, They were united in gov- ernment almost from the start; and, under the ruie of their second Prince, Charles of Hohenzollern, a vigorous spirit of nationallsm was instilled in- to all classes, and, after the defeat of the Turks at Plevna by their soldiers the little principality was recognized as a kingdom.. Tihe present king is a nephew of Prince Charles, and he rules over a land of 53,489 square miles, or one slightly greater than England and Wales and only a little less than Massachusettes and v York combined. Within _this tory, thers were, according to the last census, 7,508,000 inhabitants, giving a density of population slightly greater than that of Maryland. “The fields of Rumania afe very fertile, and many conquerors have quarreled over the division of its soil. Its system of land ownership is com- plicated, but, in general, it may be said that out of 33,000,000 acres of arable land the small farmers have a little more than one-third, while the large proprietors have 13,000,000 and the state 6,000,000. The lands owned by the state, known as Crown do- mains and consisting of 12 estates, exercise great influence as model es- tablishments.

Elementary - education freo and compulsory, and an illiterate peasantry is slowly being taught to read and write.” THE NEED OF RUSSIA 18 MILITARY RIFLES Has Twe ion Additional Men Ready as Soon as They Can Be Equipped. London, Nov. 26.—(Correspondence of The Associated Press)—“Russia is now suffering only for want of rifles, and when she is properly supplied, at least two million additional soldiers wildl be thrown into the field with re- suits which only next spring’s cam- paign can tell” This is the opinion of a prominent American mining en- gineer, who has just returned to Lon- don after spending six months in the Russian empire, mainly in Siberia, where he is-the chief engineer df an important group of mines. Describ- ing conditions in Russia heisaid: “The depression which prevailed outside Russia during the great German drive through Poland. was never really ds licated in that country. Domestic troubles existed as always, but the peopie have made their power felt as never before, and the only thing that could cause revolution now would be the conclusion of an unfavorable peace with the central powers. “The péople of Russia are enjoying something in the nature of a boom, and the cost of living of the Russian peasant, who does not require luxuries, has not appreciably increased. The Russian peasant is not an imagina- tive individual, and the losses suffered in the great retreat were unbelievably small, when the magnitude of the fizhting is taken into consideration. Even the generaily admitted short- age of rifles, the wastage of which has been unprecedented, is not causing the Russlans much concern, as the staff has realized that the rifle used by infantry is not an effective arm. The Russian army is now well plied with heavy guns and munitions and the infantry is being supplied with thousands of machine guns. In attacking, the Russian infantryman varying from six to eight hundred almost invariably detaches the bay- LARD COMPOU'ND Ib.. 12 10¢ LARD Ib. onet from his rifle and uses it as a knife when he leaps into the German trenches. He has even been known to discard both rifle and bayonet, rely- ing on a club to win a trench. "For the greater part of the war we have used Austrian prisoners as micers in our mines, but lately we have been receiving Germans from the government prisoners’ labor bu- reau. These Germans in the main are absolutcly unfit for hard labor, most of them being old men with gray beards, while others are of the student class, many of them wearing glasses with thick lens. A staff of- tcer, who is closely connmected with the prisoners’ bureau told me tbat for somo time on the Dvinsk front the Russians have been capturing from one to iwo hundred women weekly. These were all in German uniform, and were apparently serving &s sol- diers. “In Petrograd I entered the recent- ly opened museum of atrocities, but the horrors displayed there were too much for me, and feeling deadly il 1 was compelled to leave the place with- out seeing the complete display, but I was allowed to bring to Englund an Austrian rifle cartridge loaded with an explosive bullet, which is really a minature shrapnel shell that ex- plodes when a little pluger at the tip is driven in by contact with a human target. “In the Scandinavian countries noth- ing was talked about except the food shortage i Germany, and some con- firmation of this was given to me by a Dane, who represeds in Berlin one of the biggest American packing companies. This Dane declared that the fat allowance had been' reduced from eleven to seven ounces a_person dally and he stated that the German working population would have difficulty in getting through the win- ter on this reduced allowance. This Dane also told me that England was supplying its prisomers in Germany with food. “In Copenhagen I learned that the International Harvester company had recalled all of its American employes from Germany, Austria-Hungary, Turkey and the Balkans and they are being held in the Danish capital awaiting ordtrs. “Shipping owners in the Scahdina- vian countries are’ making enormous fortunes out of the war and it is said that in Bergen alone this industry has created twenty-seven new millionaires since hestilities began.” Mayors of London used to be elect- ed for life. long under cultivation without a sin- sle manuring, continue to yield twen- ty-five bushels of wheat while other tracts more scientifically _bandled, produce as much as thirty-six bushels to the acre.

Phons 1177-3 SERV.US MINCE MEAT Package condensed mince meat is made up today of the best quality of dried fruit and other items which can be found, all of which are found in the United States with the exception of spjces and currants. The study of packihg condensed mince meat has ex- tended over a period of 100 years and today is as near its perfection as we can possibly conceive. The sanitation in the factories in which it is packed is beyond reproach as the competition today in these lines necessitates the guarding of the most minute detail of the business. The apples used are of the best grade of New York State, where in our opinion is grown the best flavored apple known. The raisins used are of the best quality seeded variety. No expense is con- sidered in procurring the very highest grade of spices, and sugar, as we all know, is always sugar, the different grades merely representing the differ- ent flavors or different granulation re- quired for different purposes. Every particle of fruit or any other article used in the manufacture of mince meat is thoroughly cleaped and hand-picked by people trained to know what should and should not be used and in this manner the grticle comes to the house- wife cleanef by far than she could possibly take the same articles in her own kitchen, regardiess of how clean it may be, and make up the filler for her mince pfe. The old idea of dirt being prevalent in quantity is today disputed by the greatest authorities on food products. The meat used in mince meat is of the choicest and to- day the same corn-beef which you and I would use on our table is what is being used in Serv-us Mince Meat. There are very few ples made which can be used as handily by the house- wife as mince meat for all it, requires a iittle water and being heated for ten minutes and it is ready for the crust and then the table and she may without fear of loss carry three or four packages of mince meat in her pantry, having it ready at any-time for the chance occurrence of unexpect- ed company and it will be a good dessert free from dirt. It is our thorough belief that a mince meat ple made from condensed mince meat is about as cheap a dessert as can be prepared and yet as good. For many years mince meat wgs considered a winter dish. Each year for the last ten our factory has had to increase its capacity during the summer months untll today it runs every day of the year with a regular force of helpers. We ship goods to every part of the country the entire year. This of course means a great increase in the use of these goods over when mince meat was eaten only in the winter months which means an in- creased sale over the former winter consumption. THE L. A.
