Chinamel, Are Stolid.

An English physician residing in China
points out that the most characteristic differ
ence between the Chinaman and the Cau-
casan in Europe lies in tho formers lack of
nervousness. We i'll America, who have seen
tho Chinaman working necessarily in his
little laundry, shall find no difficulty in be-
lieving tho statements of the English physi-
ciau when he says: 1.-THE Chinaman can write
all day, he can work all day, he can stand for
whole day in ono position, weaving, ham
mering gold or cutting ivory, without once
being attacked by nervousness. This pecu-
liarity makes itself apparent in early youth.
The Chinaman can bear any kind of bodily
exercise. Sport and play to him are unneo-
essary labor. He can sleep anywhere and in
many positions-nnid laundering machines,
deafening noises, tho cry of children or the
wrangle Of grown people, or on the ground,
in bed or on chair" III his own innocent
way the China,nan is almost Sybarite.-

His honor Associate Justice David j.
Brewer is the full official designation os the
new supreme court judge, and the appoint

cabinet are great, but their terms are short
they average much less than four years-and
nearly all minor appointees are removable at
pleasure but the judges of the United States
supreme court are there for life or good be-
hnvior, and they have the last say on the
most important matters 1t has moro than

United States flag; but us the latter EN-.
phasizes the division into states the former

The latest arrivals from Rio and Para state
that, if it were not for the new flag over the
public buildings aud vessels, there would be
no external signs that anything unusual had
happened. Business goes on exactly as be-
fore. The same men run the custom houses
and general harbor business. There is no TN
usual display, no shouting, none of what Lit
tie Dorrit's Mr., Meagles mathematical in
Paris as "Their plaguey allongins and
morshonging." Gen. Fonseca, who got up
the revolution, Is acting president and other
places are filled by his conductors; but it Is
announced that this government is provis
ional only, and that regular system, will
soon be inaugurated by an election at which
all citizens who can read may vote.

certainly is an appearance of truth about
these statements.

ALI young women possessed of red hair can

hnps, why it was they were always called
''red headed" when their playmates were de-
seribed us being black, brown or golden
haired. But the 'red headedn girls don't
mind now that it is every young wonlan's

same year was appointed territorial governor
Of Dakota, which office he resigned in 1887.
Secretary Halford and Pierce, who are
intimate friends, worked together on The
Chicago InterOccan, Halford as managing
editor and the latter as associate editor.
When Halford removed to indianapolis,
Pierce became the editor, and headed the
granger movement while he held that posi-
uon. The Farmers Alliance is now his
strongest supporter. He Is good editor,
and novelist also, but like Beecher. he
does not pride himself on his story writing.
Pierce is probably as well read on Dickens
works as any one on. either continent. "Dick-
EMS Dictionary" is his most valuable book,
which is greatly appreciated by students Of
Dickens Tor its value and convenience.

To describe one of these dresses is to de-

Manners Mt Table.
The time for acquiring good table manners
Is during childhood and at home. Years at
boarding school, hours spent over books OF
social etiquette, may efface vulgar habits,
but can never give the ease and grace ac-
quired in childhood at q. well ordered table.
A child who is almost baby can be taught
to handle lis knife and fork, or spoon,
if he is too young for those more advanced
implements, with a daintiness that will Of
fend no one. Where there are children, it is
not good plan TO have wide difference be-
tween your everyday and company china,
silver and napery. There is too apt to be wide
difference, also, between everyday and COM
pany manners. Let each child have bis COW
er as nicely laid with plate, knife and fork,
spoon, napkin and glass as his elders, and re-
member that he will be sure to note your
own use Of these articles. Teach him to say
'thank you" and "please," and if he is allow
ed to leave the table before the meal is ended
let him learn to say "excuse me-" We were
very much amused at baby Of four sum
mers who recently dined at our table. The
meal, interspe,sed with interesting conver-
sation, was tedious to his infant appetite and
intellect, and finally the little man spoke up
with "May be excused, please7 I have en-
joyed my dinner very m1ch.'' Some one Mt

boy bid fair to be 'the finest gentleman in

If children are taught to do things by the
first Intention and the parents keep up the
practice, half the work of housekeeping will
be saved. For example, the boy who is al
ways whiting, should be taught to do the
cutting over the wood box or on papers
spread down to protect the carpeting, and
when he is through, he should SEQ that the
room is us tidy us before, not leaving the dirt
for his mother or sister 10 sweep up. In cut
ting out work or in dressmaking, no time is
lost i'll gathering up the scraps as they fall
from the scissors and putting them in a basket
and the room is not kept i'll such state of dis
order that one can hardly tell which way to
turn. III short, there is no need Of two move
ments where only one is necessary. 1t takes
no longer to put the burnt match into the re-
ceptucle provided for it or into the fire at the
time it is used than it does an hour later. II
n slnutty kettle is set on n table, it takes more
time and strength to wash off the marks left
than it would to have placed paper beneath
the kettle i'll the first place. Teach the chill
dren when eating their mnchcons to sit quiet
ly in ono place and not scatter the crumbs
broadcast over the floor, or, when eating
candy, impress it upon them to touch nothing
about the room with their sticky fingers It
is chiefly in avoiding the ''lttern or confusion
made by both the children and the elders that
the saving tells. There are hundreds of other
matters wherein the first way of doing them
saves time and trouble; but these given,
though simple, may serve ns examples
