"Are You GettingReal Tobacco" MASKS RECALL
.... says the Good Judge
There's more good, last-
ing taste in a little of the
Real Tobacco Chew than
you get out of the ordi-
nary kind.
You don't need a fresh
chew neirly so often--
that's why it costs you
less to chew this class of
tobacco.
Any man who uses the
Real Tobacco Chew will
tell you that.

850,000 Japane0men Work
at Average Daily Wag.of Ten

Twelve Hour Day.
There are more women In kadustry
in Japan than there are men, accord-
to a statement recently made by the
War Work Council of the Young We.
Inen's Christian Association.
The world war has brought 850,000
women and girls Into the daily grind
<f industry according to this state-
ment; 80,000 of them little girls under
fifteen years of age who work twelve
hours at a wage of ten to twenty cents

In Tokyo alone, a city of two and
one-half million people, there are 100,-
900 women employed in sixty-two In-
dustries and businesses varying from
work as telephone operators, clerks,
.stenographers and bookkeepers to
work' in silk and other sorts of fac- /'
tories and domestic work.
Each year thousands of these we.
nen go back to their homes in the
country, broken in hehlth and victims

ondittons under which they work and I

At last, dressed in full regalia, the
body was lashed to a board. One of
the two bone sticks used by every well-
accoutered shaman was placed
through the hair and the other through
the orifice cut in the nose. The head
was cowred with a basket woven of
small tvlgs and grass, and at night
the body was carried secretly to some
remote cavern or crevice. Thereafter
the members of the tribe never entered
this burial plnce, for it was supposed
to he filled wlth evil spirits.
Mr. Bourke's collection of native
mnsk, weapons and utensils is said
to be oe of the finest in Alaska.
Y. W. C. A. TRAINS WOMEN.
Young women students from forty-
four states and nine countries--China,
the Philippine Islands, France, Bulga-
ria, Holland, Russia, Armenia, Canada
and Mexico are registered in the
National Training School of the Young
Women's Christian Association in New
York.
They are studying methods of Y. W.

not many years ago believe in the g ........
words and actions of the shaman that
a whole tribe would go hungry rather ......................... " ......... '
than incur his displeasure by eating
foods which he had tabooed;
The shaman attained his position
and power by unusual methods. By
fasting and prayer amid the solitudes
of the woods or mountains, where he
fed only upon grasses and roots, he
prepared himself to become a shaman.
By this method, it was conceded, the
candidate's body became sufficleutly
purified to become the abiding .place
of the spirits, and all, successful
shamans had to have num(.rous spirits
at their immediate command. Usually
the spirit willing to abide with the
shaman sent the novitiate a land otter
r'
which the can(lhlate killed. The ottes
tongue he preserved ,,s a talisn, an for

the tongue Was taken. The skin of
the otter was kept by the shaman as
a sign of his profession.
Otter a Sacred Animal.
Thus It came ahout that the land
otter was regarded as too sacred an
animal to be killed by other than the
shamans, and neither Aleutian natives
nor those ofthe nmlnland would kill
the otter until long after the coming
of the Russians.
Sometimes it happened that the fast-
mg and prayer lu solitude did not
bring to the would-be shaman the
spirits craved. In this emergency he
betook himself, still fasting, to the
grave of some deceased shanmn and
passed a night with the corpse, taking
one of the teeth of the cadaver in his
mouth. Upon the shaman's return to
his tribe his skill was then tested by
a shaman of known powers.
For each spirit which the shaman
could produce he had a separate
wooden mask with features as hor-
rible as the tastes of the carver could
devise. ,
Healer and Prophet.
The shaman had many duties to per-
form. He was supposed to heal the
sick, to cast out the devils from the
frail bodies of his subjects, to foretell
the future, and with the aid of his
spirits to enable one to avoid misfor-
tune and disaster, The tricks of his
trade, paraphernalia and charms gen-
erally des,ended from father to son.
The shaman's hair was never cut, for
to lose his locks would be to lose his
powers. When he died he was not
cremated. After death his body was
allowed to rentals in the spot where
death came for 24 ho'urs, so that the
wandering spirit might find its tne-
misi'']hy'should it so hesire. en
