SHRINE'S MEANING NOT PLAIN
Erected to the Memory of Japanese
Maid, But Its Precise Idea
Hardly Apparent.
One of the pretty shrines of Jsipnn
Is based on the story of a beautiful
girl, and to this day occidentals can
not figure out If the shrine was to
perpetuate a tragedy or an honor. The
story is that Yamatodake, one of the
greatest warriors in the history of the
country, halted for a night at the
village of Shlmodairn. lie was weary
of buttle and strife, and sent out word
to the village that he wished to be
entertained bv the"prettiest girl there.
Kemachlya was selected, and it Is told
how she spent the evening singing
and dancing for tlie warrior, lie went
i on ids masterful way the next morning
I leaving the little maiden to inourn his
I passing, and to give birth to bis child
•. In due time.
I Now, the child died, ns did its moth
j er, and the village erected the shrine.
' and every few years it is rebuilt and
made more beautiftd. But what no
occidental can discover Is whether the
shrine was built to remind the citizens
of the militarism of the old days that
trod with relentless heels on beggar
and wealthy alike, and thus to pay
tribute to a tragedy, or wlfether It
was built to show that the great war
rior honored the bumble village by
taking one of Its membership Into his
arms.
DIDN'T GET CHIEF'S MEANING
Sailor Misunderstood, but After All,
Kangaroo Is as Good a Name
as Any Other.
The Kangaroo received Its name
tliroust] the failure of wlilte men to
understand the language of the Aus
tralian hushmen. Captain Cook, dis
coverer of Australia, gazing shoreward
one day, saw a croup of natives about
what seemed to he a most peculiar
animal. He sent a group of men
ashore to cot It. and was still more
amazed when told of Its shape, lis
habit of carrying its young in a pouch
and its remarkable leaping ability, lie
wanted the natives' name for the spec
imen that he Intended to take back to
England.
"What's the name of that beastle?"
demanded an English tar of the na
tives' chief.
"Kan ga roo," retnrned the native.
"Kangaroo, eh?" repeated the sailor
man, and. satisfied, returned to his
captain. The fact Is, however, that
the worils spoken by the chief are
merely a phrase meaning "I, or we,
don't know." »
Taking Care of Indoor Plants.
To make ferns grow rapidly Indoors
and look fresh and green, chop a few
oysters fine and mix with the soil and
then water well. This may be done
every fortnight. Wash the leaves of
your rubber plant with a cloth wet.
wlih olive oil. This nourishes the
plant and keeps the leaves dark green
and velvety. Add a few drops of am
monia to a quart of lukewarm water
when you water house plants. The
chemical acts as a tonic and fertilizer
and makes the foliage fresher. And
be careful, when real winter weather
comes, not to water your plants with
water too cold. Water running from
a faucet In January is far too cold
for tender plants. Add enough hot
water to make the drink you give your
plants lukewarm—as rainwater always
Is In summer time.
Story of the Pansy.
Tlie centenary of the pansy wni eel*
eh rated a few yenrs ago by the Eng
lish florists and the history of the
flower as given at the time was as fol
lows :
"Just one hundred years ago Lady
Mary Bennett, a daughter of the earl
of Tankerville, was so struck with the
simple beauty of a tiny wildling viola
tri-color that she collected some of the
best plants and gave them careful cul
tivation. The first batch of seedlings
raised by her gave such promise that
systematic selection was at once Insti
tuted, and, thereafter the improvement
of the genus was taken up by the lead
ing growers. Thus to an enthusiastic
amateur we are indebted for one of
the most popular and beauttful of our
garden flowers."
Many Cigarettes Consumed.
In ISfiS not enough cigarettes were

male and female, is burning up 127.

ten years the consumption of ciga

HELPED BY ROYAL FRIENDS
Musicians of Old Days Found Valuable
Patrons Among Those in the %
High Places.
.Many a famous European musical
genius has been liberally supported at
one time or another during ins career
by "the great," many musicians being
connected with royal courts especially
In the days when there were many lit
tle princes.
Joseph Ilaydn for 33 years directed
and composed for the private con
certs of the princes of Esterhazy, dur
ing which period he created most of
his best rhapsodies.
Beethoven had Ills life made eashr
for him by the Archduk# Rudolph ani
Princes Llchnowsky and Lobkowlt::.
These three nobles were his truest
admirers in a day when musicians oc
cupied a subordinate social position,
and were regarded more or less as the
vassals of the family that supported
them.
On one occasion Beethoven was
asked to Improvise before an aristo
cratic gathering. He began playing,
but the conversation In the salon con
tinued. In high anger Beethoven
arose, exclaimed forcefully though
rudely: "To such pigs I play no more I"
and dashed out of the room.
Mozart, anyone who has read his his
tory of music will remember, was
kicked downstairs by an upstart serv
ant of the Archbishop Hleronymus,
who was for many years his patroq.

"And my
.GOODRICH Shoes
outwore Six pairs of his"
He is an old timer—been in Alaska for 21
years—and just back in the States. He
was visiting the Goodrich Factory and we
asked him, of course, if he ever used our
Goodrich "Hi-Press" Boots and Shoes
while he was up there, and he said—
"Say, those are some shoes you people make.
Why, I remember one time when my part
ner and I went over the hills and I wore a
pair of your Gogdrich White Pacs. He
didn't! And he wore out six pairs before
we got back—I still wore my first pair."
There's the result of making Goodrich
Rubber Footwear the new way,—IN ONE
SINGLE PIECE—rubber tough as steel—
no leaking, no peeling, no half-soling. And
they're comfortable—feel like old shoes
before you've worn them 24 hours.
We make all kinds,—shoes, boots, shorts
and hip, for mining, fishing, logging, pros
pecting, etc. They always have "The Red
