HARD TRAVELLING.

Northern China.
1t is not to be expected that men
should fully appreciate comforts to
which they have always been accus-
toned. In America, for example, peo-
pie get from one part Of the country to
another with so much ease and con-
venience that it all seems matter OF
course. But II one undertakes q jour
ney in China he is likely to set new
value upon carriages with springs and
some other everyday mercies Of .
kindred sort.
Ih North China, according TO an
English missionary, you may perhaps
have your choice Of three methods OF
travel. You may, If you will, take
your place In q springless Pelrin cart, .
kind Of box or cage, with no seat. The
passenger Is obliged to squat on the
floor crosslegged, or to sit with legs
stretched out at right angles with his
body, and as the cart jolts over great
stones or through the deep ruts. In the
road, he is liable to be bruised black
and blue.
II such cart looks uninviting, you
may conclude TO try mule-litter. This
consists of an oblong box slung between
two mules, which never keep step, and
not infrequently quarrel, and the sw;e,-
ing, unsteady motion is as bad as that
of ship in heavy squall. Or, once
more, you may prefer to ride a donkey
with backbone like razor, and prob
ably with no saddle, and single rope
for bride.
As for travel in southern China, some
Of the tribulations of it may be gath.
cred from what the same author says
Of his own experience as he approached
great city:
"The tide was out, and we had to
avail ourselves of the buffalo-carts in
order to reach the ferryboat. These
carts are most rickety and unstable We
hicles. You sit leaning forward on the
broad rail to avoid a jerk backwards. A
Chinese in cart near the one l rode in,
entranced by the sight of foreigner,
ineautiously turned to gaze, and In an
instant he was on his back in the mud,
and was greeted with a roar of laughter
from his unfeeling compatriots."

wonderful Growth Of n Boy.

The French Academy of Sciences is
responsible for this remarkable story
Of a boys growth: ''The subject herein
mentioned was lad Of but seven years
Of age when | first saw him, but, his
tender years Notwithstanding, he meas
ured four feet eight inches and four
lines in height His people had OBJ
served his marvellous growth when he
was only two years Of age. At four he
was able TO lift and carry bushel Of
wheat and to throw the bundles Of hay
(sixty-eight pounds) to the four horses
each night At six he could lift as
much as any sturdy young man in the
neighborhood. But, although he thus
increased in bodily strength, his under
standing was no greater than that Of
the average child Of his age"

The Elyria Democrat man thinks II a
strange thing for local option town like
Wellington to furnish subjects for the
Keely institute, Nothing strange about it
at all. We have certain number In our
midst who took their first dram in towns
like Elyria and Norwalk, where loatog
in saloon is looked upon by majority
Of the people as being just as honorable
as going to church. When local option
went into effect here 1t was not expected
that the appetites Of the old timers would
be abated in the least. II merely removed
the dens for loafing and aided in keeping
the younger class from haying tree place
TO drop in and take a smile. Thirteen
have gone from this vicinity, and all re.
turned in good shape, feeling they had ac-
complished a great work for themselves

The decisions Of Judges Kicks and TAFT
rendered at Toledo Monday are right to
the point and show them to be jurists Of
great ability. They held that the inter.
ests Of the public are higher than any
order that labor union may attempt to
enforce. The interest Of the people must
be recognized first, regardless Of our pri.
vate opinions. That is 10 say, We must lie
subservient to the higher interests Of the
people and in 20 doing we obey the laws
We know Of no other rule TO be guided by
and hope that the decision will he re.
ceived with favor and thus avoid further
troIble. We like 10 zee people get all
they can for their labor or merchandise,
hut an attempt to force matters never has
met and should oot meet with success

ORIGIN OF THE SWING.
Traced Back to Pagan Rites of an An
Client Race.

Traced Back to Pagan Rites Of m An
cient kace.
Tho swing, so dear to children, can
be traced back to the festivals which
took place in pagan days in honor Of
Bacchus, when lit tie figures were hung
on trees and were supposed to bring
blessings on the ground as they swayed
10 and fro rocked by the wind, says the
Philadelphia Times. Their Of this
custom is explained by the fable Of
Icarius receiving Bacchus in Attica,
and the god was so grateful to him that
he taught him the art of making wine.
Icarius then gave some of the wine 30
his peasants, and as they became intox-
icated their friends, thinking that Icari-
us had poisoned them, killed him in their
fury. Icarius' daughter, Erigone, went
in search of Icarius, and his body was
found by means OF his faithful dog
Moera, who kept watch over the spot
where the body was buried. Erigone,
in her despair, hanged herself on tree,
and was changed into the constellation
Virgo. Icarius was changed into the
star Bootes, and the dog into the star
