during the civil war.
Japan In atlnllnB from top to bottom.
The' high officials, pecrj aiid urlstocrats
have declured off nil social e.ngagemente.
The geisha houses are deserted, and many
of them have closed from lack of patron
age. Bo It Is with the restiurants. Feists

there has been no public feant of any sort
and, 1 dareaay, acarcely a private on?
since the second day after the first bat
tle at Port Arthur, when the emperor en
tertained the high officials In celebration
of tho victory. Thut has been the sin
gle Indulgence of the war.
School Teacher onlrlbate.
The puouc ochool teachers nave vrlun'.arlly
greed to give over to the various soldiers-
aid societies one-tenth of their sala
ries lung a the war lasts. The house
wives In many precincts of the city are
giving their pin money. In one precinct
they contributed ) yen list we?k. Every
actor Is giving 50 sen a month. The mes-
cnger boys have banded together and eo j
far contributed Zoo yen, at me rate oi
70 to 80 sen a month apiece, for caring
for wounded soldiers. The carpenters'
wives are forming associations In every
precinct, and giving according to their
means, cutting down on the family table
that they may do so.
In Bhltaya precinct a precinct corre
sponds to an American ward the Janitors
In the office buildings have agreed to cut
down on their living expenses and give 20
Sen (10 cents) per head a week till peicel
cornea again. In the precinct of Bhlm
bashl the Geisha association of 170 odd
houses la contributing 200 yen a month,
for the Income of these houses, as already
remarked, has fallen off greatly.
The women. Irrespective of class, are
economising In all directions. The Ladles'
One Heart society the Fujiu lsshluka.1 la
representative of their organisations. This
society embraces the women of the middle
dues, and Its members are saving on their
food and their hair dressing and bath
money. They visit the baths only once a
week now Instead of dally. Indeed, every
member must make It a point to eave some
thing daily for "a bandage for a soldier's
leg, or rice for his mother's mouth."
How the Boys Help.
Those who cannot pare their expenses be
cause they arc down to the bone already,
aro stinting themselves of their leisure
time. The errand boys of the wholesale and
retail districts have formed a boys' associa
tion to make straw sandals for the soldiers
after working hours. Each boy manufac
tures about fifty pairs a week. Borne of
the boya, not content with this sacrifice,
beg waste paper from the stores and go
around peddling It, getting 3 cents for every
ten pounda of paper, and turning the pro
ceeds into a common fund.
The doctors, masseurs and mldwlvea are
giving their services free of charge to the
families of soldiers; and the rickshaw man,
Mukubata Jlsnburo, who saved the czar's
life when tho latter, as ciarovltoh, was
traveling In Japnn, Is contributing the pen
sion which the Russian government granted
him for his act. Me says it Is the only way
by which he can ease his conscience for re
ceiving money from the nation's enemy at
such a time.
Indeed, Nippon Is so Imbued with the
spirit of aclf-K.ninra that it gcU well nlgli
hysterical ul times to give.
This was illustrated a day or so ago when
B nod.i KoklcM, formerly president of the
Yokohama Specie think of Japan, during
the course of n Wttire before the Kokumln
Kouyenkal (the Mutual Aid Society for
t'ltlsrnsi. called upon the assembled nobles,
merchants nnd binkers to give their Jewelry
for the amelioration of the conditions
among tho poor.
Jetelr and 'Watches.
Instantly the nudlf r.ce was In an uproar
gold matches, ring, pins, ull sorts of per
s mil ornaments, were literally being torn
fiom their fastenings and thrown at the
spf.-iker. He vera! hundred pieces of Jewelry
valued at a good many thousand yen were
retributed In u few minutes, und when the
mi ting wns over hardly a person left the
hall with a bit of Jewelry showing about
him. Since then, as one of the newspapers
iualntly puts It, 'even the officials are
uituld to wear rings for fear of being called
the models of fouls."
Mr. Sonoda has been one of the heaviest
Individual contributors to the aid societies.
The day after the demonstration at his
lecture he gave seven gold watches, a
chiln and 18,(00 yen In money. Mr. Sonoda's
liberality has made him ono of the most
popular citlstns of ToKlo today.
The banking, mining and dry goods
house of Mltsu Co., which has Ameri
can and London branches, has, perhaps,
made the largest single contribution 100,000
yen or fiO.UOH. Each member of the Mltsu
family it is not small gave according to
his personal wealth.
By reason of their contributions, which
have beeii made largely to the Red Cross
society, the foreigners are universally ac
claimed. Miss Ethel Howard, the English
governess In the family of Murquls Shlm
adtu, feudal lord, is being blessed by
the soldiers' families, who have somehow
heard of her letter to her employer's at
torney, In which she xtates that she de
clines to accept her salary for six months,
wishing It to bo used to succor soldiers'
families.
The teachers of the foreign language
school Americans, Italians, Germans,
Spanish and French have sent 100 yen
eseh to the Red Cross society. They have
had to atlnt considerably to do this, for
their salaries from the government are
rot munificent. Dut It Is with them, as
with MIhs Howard:
"During my three years' service I have
learned to love and respect the people of
Japnn."
So they stint themselvos.
One Man's Sacraflce.
Dut the man who has given his all for
the auueor of his fellow countrymen is
Klnebuchl Scl-ichiro, head of the Yamato
company, doing business in Manchuria and
Siberia. He was worth 40,000 roubles when
the war broke out. He saw the distress
of his countrymen who were in Harbin
with him, and he knew of their suffering
elsewhere in the enemy's country. So he
took his money, gave enough to each Jap
to get him out of the country and, ar
ranged with German steamers to pick up
the refugees at the different porta and
carry litem to Nagasaki.
In this way hundreds of Japs reached
home 'n safety, but Klnebuchl remained In
Harbin, saying that he would not leave
until every Jap In Manchurl was safe.
Then, he said, he would disguise himself
as a Chinaman and escape. But no word
has come from Klnebuchl, and no trace
can be got of him, and the belief Is gradu
ally increasing that he has been caught
by the Russians and executed as a spy.
If such is the case. It Is safe to assume,
from the way even the rickshaw men are
now praising Kinebuchl's generous act.
that he will become one of the heroes of
the war.
One of the most unusual features of
this ecstacy of giving Is seen dally on the
streets. The country people are bringing
their horses by the hundreds Into town as
their contributions to the welfare of the
nation Before parting with their animals
they Industriously comb their manes, lav
Ishly caress them call them a multitude of
pet names, and bid them goodby at length.
"And the horses," says the "J1JI Shim
bum," "seem to appreciate the worda of
their masters and droop their heads In
sorrow." OLION T. SAMPSON,

MATERIAL COMES FROM FRIGID ZONE
Prlees Go I p la Con.eqwewee oa
All The.e Articles and Borne
Kind Will Qo Ont of
Market.
The populace reads In the morning pa
per that the Japanese have had another
brush with the enemy. The populace Is Im
personally Interested and does not know it
as been hit. But It haa. Every bit of
the first quality of bristles for the paint
brush, the hair brush, the tooth brush,
nd the other brushes comes from Siberia
id Manchuria and northern China. The
300,000 Russians will eat every stray bristle
producer that vets near the firing; line and
the 300,000 Japanese In shooting generally
at northern Asia, doubtless will accident
ia kill all the hogs that are not con
scripted Into the cxar's commlsarlat. So
every brush between the Japs and the
Russians means so many fewer brushes
for America.
Rrushes already have gone up. Bristles,
say the Omaha dealers, have advanced IS
per cent. Omaha jobbers have raised
their price 6 per cent and expect further
dvances. It Is the general opinion that
the bristle market, if the war should stop
at once, would take two years to settle
down, and If fighting continued for two
years, first quality of long haired brushes
will go up to excessive cost and practically
disappear from the market.
Manchuria and Siberia, and to a less
extent, European Russia, grow a rough-
nd-ready low-bred hog which furnishes
bristles five Inches long. In these cold
climates these industrious hogs not only
grow the bristles on the back of the neck,
but also under the flakns. Up to five
years ago the long and graceful paint
brush was made only of the white Russian
and Siberian bristle. Then it was discov
ered that the hog of northern China
turned out a black bristle, which, if
lightly shorter than the Russian, was
mora elastic and tapered beautifully from
butt to tip, while the white bristle waa
of the same thickness Its entire length.
ine Lhlnese bristle was cheap at first,
but the Oriental soon learned the business
nd now there Is no difference In price.
Worse Without the War.
Had there been no war, the brush men
say, the situation would have continued to '
grow worse, anyway. The use of brushes,
specially paint brushes, has Increased
rapidly, while the supply of bristles has
decreased. They have been scarcer durlna:
five years because of the activity of the
sportsman who finds the young wild boar a
ery game animal. The war will withdraw
Russians and Japanese from the bristle
business, will prevent the Manchurlans and
Chinese from engaging In It and will kill off
the stock which grows the long hnlr.
Brushes will. It Is said, probably never be
cheap again as they have been In the
past.
Some good short bristles come from
southern Germany and make a good quality
f hair and varnish brush, but the United
States produces very little bristles that aro
useful, the American hog giving his entlro
attention to the production of fat. Bristles i
were turned out at South Omaha for a
time and some of them were fairly good,
but they never rose above the quality of
the horse brush and the sort of hairbrush
which one Omaha drug Jobbing house
handles at SIS a gross: Cheap whitewash
ing brushes and that sort of thing . are
made from a mixture of horse hair, fiber
and other substitutes (or. tbe long bristle.
The jobbers, for these reasons, believe that
the large paint brush will disappear from
the market If the war continues for a con
siderable period.
Tooth brushes as well as the larger
articles are In the war, and they have ad
vanced In price. The Japanese have en
tered the brush field and are turning them
out cheaper than can the American. The
domestic factories will, therefore, have
largor orders when the Japanese product Is
curtailed. Corea produces a small amount
of brushes.
Camphor Alao AsTected.
Camphor 'Is another thing affected by the
war. A few months ago it was less man
20 cents. In the latter part of January It
had reached M) cents; the price is now $1,
and local drug jobbers look to aee It sell In
sixty days for 11.60. The reason is that
almost the world's supply comes from For
mosa snd the Japanese government con
trols the industry. Local drug houses were
found well supplied and have filled large
orders. American houses have refused
European orders for the crude camphor.
The market baa not advanced for three
weeks, because of sales by timid holders,
who feared a break.
Quinine has gone up 1 cents an ounce and
a further advance Is expected for the Im
mediate future. This Is directly due to tbe
war, as the armies will want large quanti
ties to keep them free of ague and cold
feet. None of it is produced in the coun
try affected. Carbolic acid Is one of the
staple supplies of the Red Cross and the
fighting has taken the American market up
6 cents a pound. The Amerlesn market,
however. Is lower than the European.
Cocaine, the drug jobbere say, will prob-
bly advance.
Alcohol has advanced 8 cente a gallon
snd glycerine H cent a pound. This was In
Jebruarv. when hoatllitles began. Kvery
time a good, big cannon Is fired a barrel of
alcohol Is burned and the glycerine is also
part of the modern explosive.

The Beverage of Health
Pure beer Schlitz beer is tho best drink in
the world for you.
The malt is a food; the hops a tonic.- The
alcohol only y per cent is an aid to
digestion; a healthful stimulant.
The most healthy nations in the world the most hardy, most
energetic drink the most of it.
But the beer must be pure. Impurity means harmful germs.
That is why we brew Schlitz in absolute cleanliness why we
filter even the air that touches it and sterilize every bottle.
And the beer must be aged. Green beer causes biliousness.
That's why we age Schlitz for months before we market it.
Schlitz beer is absolutely pure; It can't harm you. Ask for
the Brewery Bottling.
