Going to tho Fair In Corca.

Trade, which was not active on the
Seoul-W Cn-san route, was particularly
stirring along the east coast 1t is mainly
in Manchester cottons. Fairs were com
mon between Wen-san and Pull CHI eng
as they are in all the populous districts
of corea. The road was always ami
mated with cOnC0uTSe OF merry,
brightly dressed people, vending their
way to the market town; women carrying
jars and baskets Ofmelons, pears, chillies,
ETC., on their heads and babies on their
backs; bulls and carts laden with brush
wood for fuel; produce of all kinds, i'll
Guiding grain and dried fish, borne by
ponies and men; sturdy, halt-nude cool
les, perspring under lofty, wooden
frame-wolks, to which assortments Of
earthenware pots and turned wooden
dishes are attached; and. more numerous
than all, the pleasure-seeker, or ku-
kyeng-kun, in holiday dress, strutting
along in company with a batch of friends,
gesticulating, laughing and cracking
jokes productive OF the most hilarious
mirth. Such throngs greeted the for
eigner with amused surprise, sometimes
triite rudeIy, but always gOod-natur
edly. The women, in most cases, be-
hayed as properly conducted Corean
women oug ht to do when their faces run
the risk of being scanned by a stranger
and turned their backs upon him; yet
frequently all scruples vanished before
an overpowering curiosity to take in the
particulars of so odd a costume, or to dis
cuss the singularity Of the equipage. The
main street of the town or village is the
market-place. 1t often widens into a sort
of place or square, where straw booths
are hastily erected for the occasion; but
ordinarily each man exposes his wares
on some boards, or on a cloth spread on
the ground in the best spot available

4 True Idea of Reverence.

So, In visiting any church, the least
you can do is to enter into the feelings
and opinions of the worshipers for the
time being, and humbly putting aside
your own ideas assume the position of
one who can worship the Heavenly
Father anywhere, in any way, at any
time, and with more or less ceremony, so
long as the alteration is in our hearts,
reyerential and sincere, writes Cora Linn
Daniels in the LADIES' Home Journal. To
sit like post in the midst of an audi
ence who are praising God in their own
peculiar way is to show in that way an
implied contempt. If you do not like it
what are you there for? Curiosity? One
does not go to church as one goes to the
theater, simply to be amused. We do
not buy ticket; we are given free seat.
Then the only return we can show for
this liberation of us as outsiders is to Join.
as far as possible, in the devout exercises
we are allowed 10 witness. In any case.
God is being worsbiped. 1t can hurt no
one TO kneel before him, or TO bow the
head reverently.

DORA'S TRIAL.

a good provider."
But don't like him well enough,
Prudy; and / want something besides
meat and drink and two calico dresses

Mrs. Prudence Hall had sprained
her ankle, and was forced, sorely
against her will, to sit day after day
in an upper chamber, with terrible
consciousness that everything about
the farm was relapsing into chaos and
old night for want of her oversight.
Her pretty sister Dora had come to
stay with her but she was "only a
child, you know" There are two
kinds Of love in this world" said Mrs.
Hall, after pause, in which she had
been taking counsel with herself
whether Dora was old enough to be
talked to on such matters at all, and
it flashed upon her that "the child
was nearly twenty years old. Per-
haps you like Seth well enough to
marry him, only you don't know it."
"Tell me about the two kinds of
love-" said Dora innocently. "I|
thought love was love the world over"
Ihaye never known but one kind,
1 think, Dora. When married
David Hall he was the most well.to.do
young man in these parts, and we
never had quarrel while he lived.
He was good practical sort of man, |
and never asked me to do anything
unreasonable"
What if he hadi" asked Dora.
Well, l guess l should have ar

hem throw themselves away on poor
'hiftless men that will never provide
or them ner their children, and they
lnow it as well as anybody else does
& is the greatest wonder to me why
uch . useless feeling should ever have
,een created"
Dora had bent low over her work
o hide her roguish smiles at her sis-
er's discourse; but at this point she
ixed her deep gray eyes on Prudence,
lot smiling, but simply earnest.
Such love brings happiness some

Luck in Old shoes.

| The Chinese value q pair Of old
boots which have been worn BY an
upright magistrate, and the custom
of wishing a friend q /" happy foot =
ID still observed all through Europe.
The casual putting on the left shoe on
the right foot, putting it on uneven or
crosswise. burting the latch or tie,
lacing it wrong and losing q button
are all regarded as bad signs. A
Yorkshire man will spit in his right
shoe before putting it on, when going
out on an important business to bring
luck. and many an English girl has
been known to hang her boots out-
side of the window on st. Valentines
night for love-luck.
Professor Black tells us of q singu.
lar superstition existing in England,
which insists that il the youngest
daughter Of family marriss frat,
her sisters must dance at the wedding

purposes. In ireland the election of
q person to almost any Office 10 con-
cluded by throwing an old shoe over

In the Isle of Man an old shoe is
always thrown after after the bride,

New HAVEN, Sept. S.-The Republican
state convention nominated General S. Z.
Merwin for governor and Colonel Frank
Cheney, Of Manchester for lieutenant gov
ernor Ptiles Judson, of Stratford, was
nominated for secretary of state unani-
mously after the withdrawal of his nearest
competitor, Colonel Mowry, of Norwich.
Henry Gay, of Winchester, was nominated
for treasurer. Governor Bulkeley's speech
in nominating Senator George NJ. Clark Of
Haddam, for comptroller aroused great en-
thusiasm.
The ticket was completed by the choice
Of the following electors: At large-Philip
Il. Corbin, New Britain Eli Whitney, ST.,
New Haven. First district, George Sykes,
Vernon; Second district, John NJ Camp,
Middletown; Third district, Lucius Briggs,
Griswold; Fourth district, l. Dever, Warner.
The platform adopted was one of the
shortest accepted by the convention fol-
several years. 1t indorsed the national
platform and denounced the stand of the
Democratic party on the tariff and silver
questions
