NEVER DEIGN TO EXPLAIN
Japanese Have a Peculiar Philosophy
Which Westerners Find It Rather
Hard to Understand.
A Philadelphia lady, now resident !o
Japan, has written to a friend In her
home city a letter which the Public
Ledger reproduces in part, because it
Is "*o fine in its reading from within
of the Japanese nation and nature."
Mr*. Nltobe says:
"I am hoping that the light may
soon dawn upon the uninformed mlud
of America !n reference to the tru»
thought of Japan.
"It is part of the Samurai training
not to explain. 'If you are wrong,
show that you acknowledge your er

Boy Scouts Sell Millions of War Savings Stamps
BY THE savings division of the United States treasury credit Is given the
Boy Scouts of America with having sold $42,307,205.75 worth of stamps
j during 1D1S. The 250,000 boys enrolled secured from 2,150,095 persons the
siirtu'd uledce cards. Returns so far -
at hand for the month of January
show the boys secured 74,705 subscrip
tions for«a total of $1,479,721.75. This
was without any street solicitation or
active campaigning and merely re
sulted from the scouts' habit of con
stant alertness for sales opportunities.
The champion for the United
States, upon the face of the returns so
far at hand, is G. Schuyler Tarbe^, Jr.,
of Ithaca, X. Y. He sold in 191S $77.

Bush of troop No. 1, Athens, O., with a score of 151 subscriptions amounting
to $45,530.75.
The champion of the Seventh Federal Reserve district, on the face of the
Incomplete returns, seems to be Robert Clover of troop No. 2, La Grange, 111.
According to latest reports, young Clover had secured 633 subscriptions, for a
total of .<13.vSj.25. This will entitle him to the personal letter of thanks from
President Wilson, unless later returns should bring forward some other scout
as winiu r. . ,
The boy scout movement is one of the grent successes of the times. One
cause of its success is that there is no such word as "Don't" In the scout
vocabulary. The scout way puts the proposition the other end to. Just as
the American fighting man at the front says, "Let's go!" the scout says,
"Come ou!"
Most boys would rather be good than bad, but a lot of them would
rather be bad with company than good all alone. The boy scouts give a boy
a chance to be good in company. At the same time the organization does not
make an angel of a boy. If it did, the movement would have failed long ago.
manifest the Justice or your cause."
Tliis is the underlying thought of this
particular teaching. It Is, I believ-%
often carried too far—certainly, it may
prove misleading to an impatient west
erner, and I do not hesitate to say that
I have at times resented the situation
It has created.
"On the other hand, it Is Impossible
to bare file's soul to the unsympathet- j
lc or curiously minded.
"Every man or woman of fine feel- (
ing kno vs that, and the Japanese are !
singularly sensitive to a sympathetic
or an unsympathetic, a coarse or an
understanding probing."

GOT HIS HAIR BACK.
W» Perfectly Bald When He Starlet
to Use Nenrbro'a Herplcide .
Frederick Manuell, Maryland block,
Butte, Montana, bought a bottle of New
bro's Hcrplcide. April 6, '99, and began to
use It for entire baldness. The hair fol
licles In his scalp were not dead and In
20 days he had hair all over his head.
On July 2 he writes, "and today my hair
Is as thick and luxuriant as any one
could wish." Newbro's Herplcide works
on an old principle and with a new d's
corery—destroy the cause and you re
move the effect. Herplcide destroys the
germ that causes dandruff, falling hair,
and finally baldness, so that with the
cause gone the effect cannot remain.
Stops falling? hair at once and a new
growth starts. Sold by leading
ilrucglsts. Send 10c. in stamps for sample
