The Jap anese Bowing woman , however , bears for tunately no resemblance In her methods to those cold-blooded butchers of tlmo and good material , who nro known and feared In this country. Ono nnd all the little Jobbing seamstresses nro modest artists lu their way nnd nearly c\cry ono is itho graduate ot a Hewing school of good standing. The memory of Japan hardly extends back to a tlmo when there were not excel lent sowing schools in the country , but of recent years only have the women learned to UEU thimbles and know the delights of razor- edged sheara ns manufactured in and ex ported from Europe or Amcrlcn. When sew ing machines were first Introduced from the patterns of Just that amount , and by using straight lengths everywhere the dressmaker contrives not to waste an Inch. .Shnpc * Never Clinnue. This sensible arrangement , of courtc , would be Impossible , if , as with u * , the cut of garments varied every reason. In Japan no such fickle nnd foolish extrava gance l.i countenanced. The shape ot women's garments scarcely varies by a hair's breadth from year to year , hut the patterns used in decorating cotton and silk goods change with nearly every bolt. After a few dress lengths have been printed off In a factory a new design Ic made , n now combination of colors brought about and In consequence for her uprlng nnd full dress making any woman has actually hundreds ot exquisite designs to chooeo from with out the least fear of wearing the tame pattern ns that chosen by a dozen other feminine friends. The same rule holds good with regard to the embroidered ellks and crepes , and , more , over , there Is an opportunity to display a deal ot good taste and knowledge of etiquette In your choice of a pattern. Designs in Japan are made nnd especially approved for the sole benefit of young and unmarried women and by no means do they assume to appear in cotton ) or silks decorated for young married women or for elderly ladles. So subtle arc there distinctions in patterns that foreigners rarely or never learn all tbo , ramifications ot this branch of etiquette In dress , but the fact is nevertheless tbat actors don't presume to adopt the same pattern as lay folk.

This fad for JveStferh" ° 'fasTn6ns Is "every year losing Its hold on the'fcmlnlno mind In Japan , -mil the women are very wisely going back to thelv own simple , comfortable nud beautiful mode of dress.

Thi friend is uuro to know of nn expert wh ( will come-to your house with all her men- ells and sew from sunrlso to sunset for " . ' cents. The 25 cents Is nskcd for maklnf cotton dreascs , while n somewhat hlghci price is demanded for sewing on silk Among the tools of her profession the ccam Btress carries a book of fashion plates which is just ns explicit in details of cu nnd color combinations us the plates pub llshed In Paris or New York. From ai artistic standpoint these Japanese fashloi plates are far ahead of anything one sec even in France. Just as the designs on thel cotton rrcpea arc little masterpieces , nm their dyca nro absolutely clear after th fabric lias been washed and worn to rags. Contrary io the American custom , ther la no matching of samples in Japan. Vv'Iiei the seamstress cornea she spreads out he fashion book to its fullest extent and thci when a selcctlou Is made somebody gee oft and shops , for cotton thread , scwlni iillk and the like , and the sewing wamai measures her employers for gowns by mean ot a queer llttlo rule. Cutting out goes on on the floor , and 1 takes from one to three day ? to make i gown. Ono fitting only Is exacted , and 1 Japan there are rarely any scraps left ovci It requires exactly twelve yards of thirteen Inch wide goods to make a uomun n complete ploto suit , so with exquisite thrKL the uiauu facturer of fabrics cuts his cloth into drcs A" PARISIAN TOILETTE AS WORN BY FnshI own. As nearly as it Is possible to defln the differences it can be safely assume thnt very young women don't prctejid t wear stripes and dots.

The little seamstress , who curls up com fortably on the floor in the midst ot he work , is just as faithful a disseminator < > gossip as her American prototype , her need ! la nn unusually long steel affair , with round eye In the end , and her stitches ai not BO varied as ours. She does not fll backstitch or overhand. Because of the ei cccdlng looseness ot the feminine garmen In Japan close , strong stitching Is not necci sary , for no strain falls on any ot tl scams , and In running and hemming a Ion and rather loose stitch Is taken. Quito c oar so thread Is used in all goner ; sowing , nnd the object is to mnko stltchi almojt invisible on the exterior of a garmei or to make them boldly ornamental. Of tl ornamental stitches done with gaily color * ! 'silks there is simply an inllnltc variety , ft a capable seamstress will often Invent the as she goes ulpng. For example , on a bli and white cotton crepe kimono the sleoi seam will bo run up on the outside , wli Inch'lonR stitches done with six or tc scarlet bilk threads , all put at once throuf ; the big eye of a very fat needle. Whe ; ever the needle enters the goods by dexterous movement a knot Is tied In U silk , nnd at the cud of the seam a jauni tassel of silk finishes the job. Just as oftc 3 as not the dressmaker will use two uecill nnd two separate threads simultaneously c t a seam and execute Intricacies : i stitches that would fill an cmbroidei i machine with envy , and then , If it . wished , she will fancifully embroider tl whole costume with stitches tbat are i , llnlshed on one side of .tho goods as on tl i other , and that show no knots or raggc 5 i ends.

( Correspondence- ot The Bee. ) Aside fioin Us Importance as a principal eourco of food supply the Im mense financial value of the gniln crop ot the United States gives a peculiar Interest to any natutal agency which ntlccts its amount or quality. For till * reason much time , labor nnd money have been expended by the United Statcn Department of Agrl- cultuio In the study of the Insects injurious to grain and In de-vising methods to prevent their ravages. But insects nre not the only members of the animal kingdom that have proved destructive in this crop. Several species of birds feed at certain times upon cereals , and In come pfacce , where those birds breed In vest numbers , their depreda tions become very serious. The total value ot the grain product of the United States is , In round numberB , $1,000,000,000 per annum. Any agency which reduces this value by only 1 per cent Involves a loss of not less than 110,000,000 , a sum sufficiently largo to startle a thoughtful person. Several species of birds cause depreda tions upon grain cither by attacking the seed at the tlmo of planting or eoon after germination , or by preying upon the Imma ture or ripened crop. In the eastern part ot the country the common crow is the most conspicuous example , while in the Missis sippi valley and farther west eevcral spectre ot bfrtckbirds have at times made such havoc as to caUEO serious apprehensions. The redwing and the yellowhead usually nest near water , and , when possible , di rectly over It. For this reason the prairie ponds nnd sloughs of the upper Mississippi valley , often of vast extent , afford such favorable breeding grounds that the region has become the theater of their greatest ac tivities. It is the gathering place of the Immense flocks which often strike terror to the heart of the farmer as their countless hosts settle upon his fields. The nesting period Is In May and June and by the cud o ! the latter month the young are on the wing. At this time the old birds lead their young to the fields for food when the grain begins to ripen. These birds prey upon the wheat and oat fields In the month of Jury , and winter rye and wheat In June , while during the other months of the year they subsist largely on Ineects. It is highly probable that the changing ol the original prairies into fields of grain has contributed to the Increase of blackbirds by furnishing an abundant and sure supply ol food at a time when It is most needed. Many Instances can bo pointed out where bird : : have Increased In vast numbers slnco the settlement of the country owing to the increased food supply resulting from cultiva tion ; and in some cases , at least , this In crease has taken place In spite of the fact that the birds were extensively shot for food Thief of the CornUclda. Among the most destructive grain-eating birds is the common crow , which range ; I over the United States cast of the greal i plains , moro sparingly over the rest of the much attention from grain growers , ns such is the cnso. Hundreds of communlca- tloiH have been received by the department testifying to their destructlvcness. Uitnn < ' of nincldilril * . Then comes next the red-winced black bird , swamp blackbird , or "American star- HIIR , " which In distributed over all cctlom of our country nnd breeds throughout this region exct.pt along the extreme southern border. They nro found In more abundance In the prnlrlo region of the upper Mississippi valley and In the vicinity of the Great Inked. The red-win ? Is destructive to the different kinds of cereals , oats being their favorite , which constitutes moro than one-halt of the train eaten. Corn stands next In order and wheat last of all. The months of July and August is the period when these birds get In their destructive wpt-k. l-'rom mojt of the states drained by the Mississippi liver nnd Its tributaries complaints - ! plaints both numcious ami loud have been received of invagcs of the led-wlugs. The ! vast marshes of the northern part of this re- 1 ( jlon and the small prairie ponds found everywhere - where lire the : ecrultlng grounds for 1m- ( mcnso Hocks , whose numbers nre almost be yond estimation. When those hordes settle upon n , field of ripening grain not only Is much of the grain eaten but the straw is broken down nnd rendered difficult to cut. So extensive arc some of these flocks that In n few days they tfnt and destroy a great per- , ccntage of the grain. The yellow-headed blackbird is abundant in the Mississippi valley , less common In the far west , and occasionally straggles eastward to New England and the District of Columbia. U is identical In feeding hab its as the red-wlug , and even In Its prefer ence for oats. During the breeding season it Is a hearty Insect eater and destroyer ot what is well known as the "army worm. " There is also the rusty grackle of the east ern United States and Brewer's blackbird of the west are similar birds In their crnln- catlH2 habits , but are very valuable birds lu destroying noxious Insects. In addition to crows nnd blackbirds sev eral birds have attracted notice In different parts of the country by their grain-destroy ing proclivities. Among them are the mourning or turtle dove , the horned larks and the Mongolian or ring-necked pheasant. \ < > Heiucily for ihc Evil. The. department believes an attempt to exterminate these species of grain-eating j birds would bo not only ill advised , but hopelc3s. , Various states have offered boun ties for their destruction , without perceptl- , bly thinning their ranks. It confesses that | it can suggest no remedy for the evil e\- I cept in the case of crows nnd blnckblrJs I tbat pull up sprouting corn which can be , prevented by thoroughly tarring the seed , j This plan , If properly done , neither Injures Its vitality nor prevents the lisa of machin ery In planting. There Is , however , some hope for the future - turo though perhaps a distant one. The de partment believes that whllo the advance of civilization has thus far not affected these birds or their haunts the tlmo will como when it will. Increased density of popula tion will broaden the area of cultivation and this in time must lead to the draining of the smaller marshes nnd ponds , thus turning over to agriculture much land that has heretofore'been worse than waste , since It has served 83 a breeding ground for the birds that have destroyed the crops. With the breeding places more restricted and an environment otherwise changed by increased population , the number of birds will de crease , and In tlmo the proper equilibrium will bo restored.

East of the Alleghanles , and , especially in the New England nnd other Atlantic states , tbo crow has long been ' known ns a "thief of the cornfields , " having been so christened by the aboriginal In habitants. Tbo greatest damage Is done 'In spring , when the birds pull up the sprouted grain. Dry , hard corn Is not palatable food for the crow , as has been shown by experi ments with a caged bird. Corn that has been softened and we tened by the process of germination is Us favorite food and Is eagerly sought. Various devices In the way of "scarecrows" have been designed to frighten the marauders away , but to no avail. Moro recently the plan of coating the seed corn with tar has been extensively used with good results. Their ncuto smell of the tar will prevent them from picking the young sprouts of tbo kernel. Reports { u the department enow that extensive damage is done by the crow by eating corn when In its "milk" or "roastlng-ear" stage. This bird docs more damage la the cast than elsewhere. Investigations of the food hablU of the crow , based on an examination of the contents of 900 stomachs , show that about D per cent of the food for the year consists of grain , of which corn constitutes moro than 21 per cent. On the giber hand , the loss ot grain is offset by the destruction of insects , which is about ,23 , per cent of the crow's yearly diet. The larger part of these insects are noxious. From this point of view it is evident that what grain the crow takes from the available crop Is well paid for by the Insects destroyed. The most destructive of birds to various grain ls < * the crow blackbird , which thrlvo In vast numbers over the United States east ot the Rocky mountains , and remain through the year in most of Its range south or Illinois and Pennsylvania. It rests In trcM or bushes and seeks the neighborhood of man for Us breeding places. ThU bird ap pears in large flocks about the 1st ot Sep tember , and when they attack a Held of ripening grain the result U very disastrous. Crow blackbirds are- fond of grain , and , being of good size and abundant , have th < power to do great harm. Moreover , the examination of more than 2,000 of theli stomachs show that grain forms 43 per cenl of the food of the year and that corn alont constitutes SS per cent , From thisIt might bo expected tbat they would attract hoovrs the fanner to apply such remedies ni the exigencies of the cose suggest am where these p.cgarlous bpeeles aio eve abundant It Is well to exempt them from th general protective laws in order that eacl landholder may bo free to protect hlmscl as best ho can.

The hotel keepers of Acadla live nnd flourish on Longfellow ; every line in EvnnRcllne Is worth a summer boarder to them , and the summer boarder means a profit of J100 nt the end of the sea son. Indeed , tha hotel keepers nro talking about crecl'lug a monument to Henry W. Longfellow In some purt of Acndln , possibly In Grandpre. Despite last century's deportation of tbo Acadlnus there nro fully 200,000 of them nt the present ) time living between Yarmouth , on of the gateways to the Province of Nova Scotia , and Halifax , the other , among whom nrc , doubtless , many descendants of Ilcnedlct Lafontalnc and Bnsll t'ho Blacksmith. At all events the names of Lajcunesso and Lafou- talno are common enough In the valley. All the Acadlans did not lenvo the valley with Evnngcllnc nnd Gabriel. Many of them who were not pure whites managed to conceal themselves In the "forests primeval" and nshed and hunted there until t'he minions of King George had become satis fied that nothing more was to bo feared from the French of Acadla. When the crisis was over they emerged from the forests nnd settled down in the places where their descendants are to bo found today with fhat strain of Indian blood that makes them bold hunters and patient fishermen , but unlit * them for competition with men of British descent in civilized enterprise. If L'Evangellno nnd other local news papers are accurate in their statements , the valley contains a surprising number of ccn- tcnarlaus. There is at least ono Acadian no\v living near Eelhrooke , Dlghy county , who is in her 104th year. The parish regis ter vouches for this woman's ago and her name is Evangellno Lajeunesse. This an cient darno has undoubtedly some Mlc-n-Mnc blood in her veins , and the strain Is ob- fccrvnble in her many descendants down to the sixth generation , as represented by i- year-old Nanette dea Noyes , born la Eel- brooke on July 21 , 1890. Old Evangellne , for as such is eho known and venerated from Yarmouth to Halifax , was born in Auugst , 1795 , and was married In 1811. She became the mother of eleven children , two of whom are now living , ono a son in Lowell , Mass. , the other a daughter In Yarmouth county , Nova Scotia. This daughter Mrs. Emma Langlols has had fourteen children , nlno of whom are living but scattered , they and their descendants , all over the United States and Canada. It is a grcat-grent-grandchild of Mrs. Langlols v.hi is referred to as the 2-ycar-old , and there fore a great-grcat-great-grandchlld of Old Evangellne.

"The American people are essentially i nervous people , " remarked nn educalet Chinaman to a Washington Star reporter "and the best of physicians agree that this nervousness Is on the increase ns the country - try grows older. Where it will end is , o course , n matter of conjecture , for a renv cdy , or a scries of remedies , may be dls covered as time runs along. Certain It li that unless this nervousness can be curci the future of the American people Is a ver ; serious problem. Already It is a matter o discussion In tba medical Journals , am though hundreds of books have been writ ten nnd will yet bo written on the suujec there Is no great unanimity of opinion as t the remedy. Indeed , the cause has not ye been ascertained , though there are a num her of causes. "I have a theory as to a great deal of th American nervousness , and though many d not agree with me , I think it Is the rlgh one. My Idea Is that it Is caused by th shoes the people wear not the shape of th shoe , for they nro of all shapes , but the wa j the shoo Is made. All American shoes hav hard , solid soles. Those who wear slipper I or felt shoes 11 nil relief , simply because th i soles nro soft nnd yielding.

The best Chinee writers , medical men , say that nervousne ? has been kept out of China by the fact tht the people there wear soft-soled shoes.

He known ho finds a relic but rarely realizes that It is the softness c yielding ot the soles that gives It. "Of course , it Is n very largo qucitioi viewed from nny standpoint , but It Is a vpi important ono. It may bo going backwan as some imagine , for the average so-callc up-to-date American to adopt an Idea that over 1,000 years old In China , but I flrml believe that the Idea la n very valuable on In past years the best writers have agree that the national disease of America Is dyi IDEN 9AND MILK. t THE EAGLE BRAND * STIFY TO ITS SUPERIORITY.
