oHINA,s SILK FESTIVAL.
Religious and Symbolica1 Services Per-
formed by the Empress.

We, who are always grateful to our
benefactors, honor the inventor of the
art of silk-culture with real perpetual
cult Besides the temples which we
have erected in all the corners of the
empire, her Majesty the Empress goes
every year at the Matching season. in
person, with all her suite, and in great
pomp, to the field of the mulberry, to
sacrifice to the goddess who was the
queen of the Emperor Hoang-Ti After
the ceremony at the temple, Her
Majesty, followed by her ladies' goes
into the field, and, surrounded by the
farmers wives, cooks some mulberry
leaves and lays them on basket con-
tanning the newly Matched worms. The
festival is closed with her winding a
cocoon by way of setting an example, in
the presence of the people, and dis
tributing gifts to those persons who
have been reported by the authorities of
their villages as most worthy by reason
of their fidelity in attention to the care
of the silk-worms.
This ceremony, which is one of the
most important of those her Majesty
has to perform during the year, is a
great incentive to the silll-raising popu-
lation, who can not neglect their own
work when they see their sovereign oc-
cupied in the same way. An old prov
erb says that ian idle farmer causes
two persons to die of hunger, and a
woman who will not weave will see ten
| dying of cold" The proverb illustrates
| the,value of encouragement, and shows
that silk-worm raising and weaving are
duties of the women.-General Tcheng.

Tho Pride of His Glass.

He was bright, handsome boy of six
teen, sunny-tempered, brilliant and engag-
ing, the delight of his parents, the JOY of his
home, and the pride of his class. But shad-
ow fell across his bright prospects. 1t be-
gan with a tritling cough; soon came pre-
monitions of consumption, his strength
failed, his cheeks grew hollow, and he
seemed doomed to an early grave. Then a
friend advised Dr. Pierces Golden Medical
Discovery. He tried it and was saved.
Health and strength returned, his cheerful
voice rang out again across the school play
ground, his cheeks again grew rosy, his
eyes bright. He is still "the pride Of his
class" and he graduates this year with high
est honorS.

picket fence, and flanked by uncouth
structures of pine, one of which was used
as storehouse for quartermaster' prop

tory for skins and furs, there stood the
frame cottage which Mr.. Hayne had chos-

Big Englishman BHIlied Him, but
Yrenchy Wouldn't Stand 1t.
There were number of us in one of the
London taverns made famous by Dickens,
when a great big fellow slouched in and made
himself very disagreeable with his mouth
One of our party was a man from Boston,
and some way or other he and the big man
came to exchange words. The first we heard
of the row the big man was saying:
"You Yankees is great on the brag. and
that's all you can do"
"Well, dunno" replied Boston.
'But do When did you ever doa bloom

Don't it say thatF'
The big fellow had pushed up his sleeves
and put up his fists, and it was plain that a
row was on hand. He was big enough to eat
up two such men as Boston, while he had
friends to look out for the rest of US. Our
companion, therefore, took the most prudent
course and acknowledged that history might
say SO and probably did say so. This salts
fled the big fellow and he turned away and
glared at a Frenchman, also q tourist, who
had come in later. After long stare he
walked up to Grape and shouted:
"Blast yer bloomink parley vous, but VIEW

danced around with his hands up, and 70 our
utter establishment the Kid went right down
into his boots and skunk out of the room, hav-
ing no more pluck than hen. We sat there
for five minutes before any one spoke. Then
it was the Boston man who said:

apparently unanimous sentiment as the
cavalry party broke up and scattered for
the mornings duties. Some waited Dur.
posely to hear.
The adjutant alone stood in the colo
nefs presence as Blake knocked and en-
tered. All others had gone There was
moments hesitation, and the colonel
paused and looked his man over before
+ he spoke:
"You will excuse my sending for you,
Mr.. Blake, when tell you that it is a
matter that has to be decided at once.
In this case you will consider, too, that
L want you to say yes or no exactly as
you would to a comrade of your own
grade. If you were asked to meet Mr..
Hayne at any other house in the garri-
son than mine, would you desire to ac-
cept? You are aware of all the circum-
stances, the adjutant tells me-"
81 am, sir, and have just announced
my intention of calling upon him."
''Then will you dine with us this
evening to meet Mr.. Hayne?"
81 will do so with pleasure, SIR"
1t could hardly have been an hour
afterwards when Mrs. Rayner entered
the library in her cosey home and found
Miss Travers entertaining herself with a
book
''Have you written to Miss Van Ant
werp this morning." she asked. 81
thought that was what you came here

Il did mean to, but Mrs. Waldron has
been here, and / was interrupted"

''Mrs. Waldron is woman who talks
about everything and everybody. I adj

Miss Travers smiled roguishly: "Why
should you want to know, Kate, if you
disapprove of her revelations"
'Oh," with visible annoyance, sit is to
4 wanted to know so as to let you see
that it was something unfounded, as
usual"
"She said she had just been told that
the colonel was going to givea dinner
party this evening to Mr.. Hayne."
"What?'
"She- said-she-had- just been
told-that-the -colonel-was-goi
to give-a dinner party-this evening

'sWho told herr"
"Kate, didn't ask"
"Who are invited? None Of ours?'
'sKate, don't know"
"Where did she say she had heard it?''
''She didn't say"
Mrs. Rayner paused one moment, If
resolute: Didn't she tell you anything
more about it,"
Nothing, sister mine. Why should
you feel such an interest in what Mrs.
Waldron says, if she's such a gossip?''
And Miss Travers was evidently having
hard work to keep from laughing out
right.
"You had better write your letter"
said her big sister, and founced suddenly
out of the room and up the stairs.
a moment later she was at the parlor
door with a wrap thrown over her
shoulders. eff Capt. Rayner comes in,
