ner diagohsiiy Opposite the entrance
door there is q high mantel surmoun-
ted by large plate mirror. Mrs. Les
lies desk is in the opposite front cor
ner. The furniture is of antique oak,
richly carved, and includes lounge, a
centre-table and several high backed
chairs. The latter are upholstered in
goods harmonizing in hue and effect
with the carpet.
Straight across from the entrance
door is another door leading to the ed
itorial department. The space between
the two doors is filled by handsome
bookcase. The elegant screen at the
entrance door is of stamped leather.
Both doors are of Japanese panelling.
From the centre of the ceiling hangs a
Japanese lantern of very elaborate
make, which in turn supports an
American eagle with spread wings.
Above the mirror q white dove is
posed. Conspicuous On the walls are
three portraits of the late Frank Leslie,
one bronze medallion. The pictures
otherwise are choice etchings, engrav-
ings and water colors. Perfect taste
and unobtrusive richness are the char
acteristics of the fitting and adorn-
ment. There is just touch of the
practical everywhere to antagorize the
impression that you are in a reception
room instead of business office, but
tho harmony remains undisturbed and
peculiarly pleasing to the artistic sense.

Chinese Banking.

The Chinese have u way of borrow
ing and lending money under a system
that they call Woo-ey, that allows its
repay it by instalments. Any member
of Woo-ey who takes share and
does not wish to borrow himself OBJ
tains good interest. on the money he
invests. The plan of Woo-ey is as
follows: All Sing wants to borrow
800 AMI repay it in instalments, SO be
starts Woo-ey; his first step is to find
20 persons who are willing to take q
e5 share i'm 800 Woo-ey. All Sing
is the Woo-ey Tow, or head of the
Woo-ey; the shareholders are known
as Woo-ey Chi, or children Of the
Woo-ey. IRE Woo-ey lasts for 20
month; each Woo-ey Chi paws in So
TO the Woo-ey Tow, SO that All Sing
obtains his 500.
At the end of the month All Sing
goes to each OF the shareholders and
asks for bids for the next loan; each
member writes his name and the
amount of interest he is willing to pay
on slip of paper. Every member
has the right of borrowing money
once during the Woo-ey. After the
bids are all received they are opened
and read and the money lent to the
highest bidder. We will suppose that
2 per cent is the highest bid. All
Sing, VIII, now pays the first install
ment, has to pay in the full amount of
50, while the others deduct the per
cent and pay in S4.90. When the
next instalmcnt falls due there are two
members wh have to pay in the full
amount, SO the Woo-ey runs on.
At the end of 10 or 16 months the
interest offered il often as high as 90
Or 80 per cent, but as Is of the mem
bers have borrowed and so have to pay
n the full amount of 80, it is only the
four or five left who get the benefit of
:he heavy interest. Sometimes toward
he last Of the Woo-ey, when two or
three different ores wish to borrow,
the rates offered are often 40 high as
10 per cent. and in one instance 100 per
cent was bid on $5 Woo-ey. As
there were three members that had not
borrowed, the Celestial had only to
pay the heavy premium to two men.
Sometimes the Woo-ey is as low as 80

Had TO Marry the Eldest Daughter.

Sparks is the very appropriate name
of man in Kittey township, Ottawa,
who engaged himself to the youngest
daughter of Charles Smith of White
hurston. When the date of the we'd
ding had been decided upon the pros
pective bridegroom went to Mr.. Smith
and told him that he intended to mar
ry his youngest daughter. MIR. Smith
was clever. "You can have my oldest
daughter" he said, "but not my young
est. My girls must marry according
to age" Thereupon Sparks agreed to
wed the oldest Smith girl. This is in
the line of the highest domestic policy.
Tie youngest girl in family should
never be permitted to marry when she

Widows and Widowers.

A social philosopher is alarmed at
the large preponderance in England Of
widows over widowers, the proportion
being as 1,410,GS4 to 5s9,644. The
superior longevity Of women or the
greater exposure to danger incurred
by men does not seem TO the sage a
sufficient explanation, the main cause
being undoub edly a more or less con-
siderable disparity Of ages between
TIE contracting parties. Women will
not marry young men whose future
lies before them.
