It is proposed to mix the Japanese kind with some softer toogued brand from the south and thus gradually weaken the astringent properties. Mnch headway has been made in that direction. The Josephine style of American persimmons has been crossed with the Yemon type of Japan. The American flavor won out, while the Japanese hardiness and firmness remained. On the theory that there cannot be too much of a good thing, the Japanese often heat their persimmons with the fumes of saki, thereby weakening the puckering power.

Recently a group of the insurgents got together and swapped experiences. "Representative Morse of Wisconsin met Uncle Joe in the office of a prominent government official this summer," said one of them, and Uncle Joe completely Ignored him. The official, who was more or less of a green hand in Washington, finally said: Mr. Cannon, this is Mr. Morse. "The speaker looked Morse over, without extending his hand, and dryly remarked: "What is your line of business, Mr. Morse? I am a member of congress,' replied Morse. " Oh, replied the speaker. I have some Morses down in my district, and I thought you might be related to one of them. I want to say, however, that if La Follette is a Republican, I am a blamed old fogy.
