Things She Hates.

hate a man who makes love 70 his wife
before folks, and the house too hot TO hold
her after they have gone; who says dear
and darling" and "wifey" in public and
abuses her when he gets her home.
i hate woman who, when her husband
comes home at night, tired and discouraged
perhaps with his days labor and trials, in
sists upon dragging him out to party or
opera, when the lounge or bed appears the
only comfort TO the exhausted man, and
hate him il he is simpleton enough to dress
and accompany her because she cries.
hate the man who spends money with
out stint among men and denies his wife q
decent wardrobe, and hate the woman who
doesn't make fuss about II.
hate the man who is always ready to dc
good turn for a neighbor and obstinately
refuses TO do anything at home; who gives
freely OF his time and money to outsiders
and neglects TO provide for his wife anC
children.
hate woman who is so bent upon ''im
proving her mind" that she allows her lit
tie ones to GO ragged and dirty and he
husbands clothes tattered and buttonlcss
and hate the man who doesn't put a stoI
to such nonsense.-New York Ledger.

Nuns In China.

There arc nuns in China. They have a
somewhat easier time than nuns in Euro
pean and American converts do. They be-
long chiefly 10 the lower classes, the poorer
parents being willing TO sell their daugh-
ters TO the service of the convent. The
children thus grow up in the ascetic atmos-
phere and eventually join the order Poor
widows also frequently solve the self sup
porting problem by entering convent.
When the women are merely novices, the
fronts of their heads are shaved. When the
novitiate is completed-which cannot be
until the end of the candidates sixteenth
year-the entire head is shaved. The nun
vows to lead a chaste and ascetic life. Her
diet is purely vegetable. Meats and liqs
uors she must avoid. She must hold no in
tercourse with men and must take no in.
lerest in worldly affairs. Her religious du'
lies, which she promises faithfully to per
krm, are mainly prayers, ceremonies and
the care of the altar, on which the vestal
fire must not die out.
But the Chinese nun enjoys n good deal
Of freedom. She may walk all abo1r'the
town. Her spare time is spent in tending
the sick. And as the Buddhist priests have
very little intercourse with Chinese women
the nuns are the religious instructors OF
the feminine part of the community and
thus exercise great influence Hong

The unanimity with which the leading
papers Of the country have enthusiastically
praised that enterprise known as "The
Chicago Spectatorium," of Chicago, would
seem to indicate that it is indeed long way
beyond anything of that kind ever seen.
The Chicago Herald summed il up in line
by saying, "People will one day talk of it
as the most fascinating feature of the Fair"
The Inter Ocean says: "All were ready to
agree that this Spectatoric would be to art
what the Eiffel Tower was to engineering"
The Times in a line related, "There was
promise of the most startling novelty that
the world ever saw" The Tribune in
alluding to it spoke of it as natural effect
and called the things seen wonders. The
Chicago Evening Post characterized it as a
wonderful creation which in many minds
would rival the Worlds Fair itself. The
Globe said that the model even surpassed
many spectacular plays given on large
stage and called the enterprise "a marvel
Gus thing" and said, 1.-THE production would
be the most advanced realization of realism
combined with perfectOn or the IDEAL"
The Illinois Stats Zeitung said, ut will,
without doubt be one of the grandest sights
which was ever given to the public" The
Louisville Courier Journal aludes to it as
"a remarkable combination of science and
art at Chicago, whose splendor will eclipse
anything ever before Witnessed" and the
| Commercial Gazette of Louisville calls it "a
wonderful work of creative genius. A
feature that will rival the Worlds Fair
itself, surprising the most splendid achieve
ments of the modern stage" The Detroit
Free Press said it would be lone of the
most prominent attractions of the west and
its object is to make an alliance between
nature and art"

borers of Bogota, united on sunday and
mobbed the offices of newspapers which
have criticised them severely. They de-
stroyed the presses, pied the type, killed

TWO editors. The mob then tried to set
hire TO the Offices, but was held at bay by
the police until the national guard could
be summoned. The militia and police
charged the rioters and, after p stubborn
fight, dispersed them. Several rioter,
were severely wounded and many arrest
ed. The riot had no political signih-
canoe.
