China's Great Wall.

OF course We had to 60 to the great
wall Of China, says Pekin correspon-
dent Of the Davenport Democrat. China
abounds in great walls. Her mural de-
lenses were most extensive-walled
country, walled cities, walled villages,
walled palaces and temples wall and
wall within wall. But the greatest OF
all is the great wall of China, crests the
mountain range aud crosses the gorge
from here some fifty miles away.
Squeezing through the last deep gorge
and deep rift in solid rock, cut out by
ages of rolling wheels and tramping
feet, We reached the great frowning,
double. Fashioned gate of stone and hard
burned brick-one archway tumbled in.
This was the object of our mission-the
great wall of China, built 2l3 years be-
fore our era; built of great slabs of well
hewn stone, laid in regular courses
some twenty feet high, anG then topped
out with large, hard-burned brick,
filed in with earth, and closely paved
on the top with more dark, tawny brick, 4,
the ramparts high and castellated for
use of arms. Right and left the great
wall sprung far up the mountain ridge,
turreted each 800 feet-a frow ming mass
Of masonry. No need TO tell you Of tins
wall; the books will tell you how 1t was
built to keep the war-lIke Tartars out
25 feet high by forty thick; 1900 miles
long, with room on top for six horses to
be ridden abreast. Nor need tell that
for 400 years 1t kept those hordes at
bay, nor that in the main the material
used upon IL is lust ~ good, and firm,
and stEong rs when put in place.
Twelve hundred miles of this gigantic
work, built on the rugged, craggy
mountain tops, vaulting over gorges,
spanning wide streams, netting the riv-
er archways with huge, hard bars of
copper; with double gates, with swing
ing doors and bars set thick with iron
armor-a wonder in the world, before
which the old-time classic seven won
ders, all gone now (save the great pyra-
MIDI. were toys. The great pyramid
has SIS ,0OG, 900 cubic feet, the great wall
$3.50, 600, 900 cubic feet. An engiseer
iu Stewards party here some years ago
gave 1t as his opinion that the cost Of
this wall, figuring labor at same rate,
would more than equal that of all the
l00,0 miles Of railroad In the United
States. The material i. contains would
build a wall six feet high aud two feet
thick right straight around the globe.
Yet this was done in only twenty years.
without trace of deb. or bond. IL Is the
greatest individual labor the world has
ever known.

Two Blind NIen.

There were once in Rome two blind
men, one Of whom cried in the streets
of the city "He ia helped whom God
helps" The other on the contrary cried: /:
"He is helped whom the king helps"
This they did every day and the emperor
heard it so often that he had loaf Of
bread baked and filed with gold pieces.
This gold-fillej loaf he sent to the
blind man who appealed to the en-
peror's help. When he felt the heavy
weight Of the bread he sold il 10 the
other beggar as soon as he met him.
The blind man who bought the bread
carried It home. When he had broken
it and found the gold he thanked God
and from that day ceased TO beg. But
the other, continuing TO beg through
the city, the emperor summoned him to
bis presence and asked: "What hast
thou done with the loaf that 1 lately
sent your"
81 sold it TO my friend because 1t was
heavy and did not seem well risen."
Then the emperor said: "rruly he
whom God helps is helped indeed and
,turned the blind man from him.

what Might BE Done.

What might be done IL meDwere wise
What glorious deeds, my suffering orother'
Would they unite
In love and right,
And cease their scorn Of one another?
oppression's heart might be imbued
With drops of loving kindness;
And knowledge pour,
From shore to shore,
Light on the eyes Of mental blindness.
All slavery, warfare, lies and wrongs,
All vice and crime might die together;
And wine and corn,
To each man born,
BE free as warmth in summer weather.
The meanest wretch that ever trod,
The deepest sunk in guilt and sorrow,
Might stand erect
In self-respect,
And share the teeming world tomorrow.
What might be done? This might be done;
And more than this, my suffering brother'
More than the tongue
Fer said or sung,
II men were wise and loved each other.
