Intermarriages between Chinese men

ed indicative of a progressiveness for
which natives of the Flowery Kingdom

American girl of good family contracts
such a union, or announces her inten-
ton to do so, it still occasions consider
able surprise, though the bridegroom
may be a mandarin of high degree, or of
q family whose social or official rank in
his own country is superior to that of
his bride in this.
Miss May Durham, pretty and ac-

latest young woman to permit such an
announcement to be made for her, and
her attending husband is Yung Kwai,
an interpreter at the Chinese consulate

II young man named William W. Fairbanks
was married on October Is last, and few
hours after his marriage he kissed his wife
goodbye, left the hotel and did not return
until the other day. The strange part of
the story is that Fairbanks claims he can
remember nothing that occurred during the
past sixteen months. He says he knows
nothing of his marriage and had to be in
troduced TO his bride. who had gone to his
parents home at Point Arena. He remem-
bered her as a woman whom he only met
while travelling in the east. but says he
knows nothing of the correspondence that
resulted in her coming west to marry him,
or of the marriage. When he recovered
his senses in a hospital in Shreveport, La,
he was suffering with fever and nervous

THE PHILOSOPHER.
70 be gentle is the test of a lady,

To be gentle is the test OF a lady.
None are SO old as those who have out
lived enthusiasm.
Great occasions do not make heroes or
towards; they simply unveil them to the
eyes of men.
The practice of economy is no disgrace.
1t is better living on a little than OUTLYING
a great deal.
Do not be ashamed to confess your igno-
rance whenever you see an opportunity OF
acquiring knowledge.
As the sword of the best tempered metal
IL most flexible, so the truly generous are
most plant and courteous in their behavior
to their interiors.
The reason why people so i'll know how
to do their duty on great occasions is that
they will not be diligent in doing their duty
on little occasions.
Liberty cannot spring up from blood; the
sword cannot prepare the soil where it is to
grow up Truth, light and reason alone
are the nurses of liberty.
There is a pleasure in contemplating
good; there is a greater pleasure in receiv-
ing good, but the greatest pleasure is doing
good, which comprehends the rest.
To one who has said, II do not believe
there is an honest man in the world" an
other replied, 1T is impossible that one
man should know all the world. but quite
possible that one should know himself. -

Stock Exchange they have been worn
this summer, and members have ap-
peared in the House of Parliament in
them.
This is extremely sensible. for sitting
all day in a heated session and wearing

making the members bald.

ones wore sashes, so the example of my

a serious aspect of the giggling habit
is that it is so nearly ilcOrrigible. Man
nerisms of all kinds strike their roots
deeply. but he! he" and ''ha! ha!'' be-
come part and parcel OF the offenders
against reason and taste. That which
makes the listener nervous to irritabil
ity, fretting the amiable into n desire To
smother the meaningless cackle in the
throat that gives it birth if he cannot es-
cape beyond hearing of il, is practical
involuntarily by the habitual laughter.
Like the famous button on the learned
advocates coat with which he fumblcd
necessarily while pleading, the giggle
would, if suddenly taken away, deprive
its slave of the power of speech. To
command gravely temperate articula-
ton would be to strike dumb.
The origin of the obnoxious trick is of
course in youth and inexperience. and
almost always in native diffidence or
temporary embarrassment. When the
girl has no fitting words at call, she gig
giles. When the had is oppressed by
weight of bashfulness and would swag-
ger it of, he outlaws. In the tyro's
opinion n laugh outdoes charity as a
cloak for every defect and extricates
him from the most trying position. Ar
fectation is an active ally in the evil
work, and the ambition to be agreeable
brings up the rear guard.-Marion Har-

their minds and energies should be all
intent upon swelling the appropriation
bills for the benefit of the ''deestricks. :"
Yet there is some likelihood of some
thing like that happening. for in their
new chaplain, Rev. Edward B. Bagby,
the representatives have chosen a min
lister who has made a special study OF how
to reach and soften the obdurate hearts
of men.
The work of the chaplain in the house,
it Is true, is limited to opening the daily
sessions with prayer, but there is atleast
a chance of his words falling on good
soil, like some of the seed in the parable
of the sower. Mr.. Bagby has already
gained favor by making his prayers
short, which generally pleases congress-
men. and there is no knowing but what,
pleased with his brevity, they may be
touched by his fervor aud come to real
ize that that there is something in re-
ligion after all.
Pleasantly aside, however, Mr.. Bagby,
though a young man, is an earnest and
efficient worker in the ministry. He is
the pastor of the Ninth Street Christian
church in Washington, where in the past
two years he has built up one of the
strongest congregations in the capital.
He is Virginian by birth and only %
years old, but was educated at the Uni
versity of Kentucky and took the Yale
degree of bachelor of divinity.
He preached among the mountains Of
West Virginia and at Newport News be-
fore going to Washington and spent a
year or more laboring as an evangelist.
1t was in this capacity that he first went
to the Ninth Street church, where his
preaching was so effective that he was
invited to accept the pastorate. His
church now numbers over 400 members,
and he is especially popular with young

IT HITS THE MASSES.
SOME Strong Remarks by a
Well-known Man.
Evidently He Knows Well What He is
Talking about.
And We Only Trust That His Advice
Will be Followed.

The majority of people who are ailing
do not call themselves exactly sick; They
are run down in vitality of blood, or their
nerves have become weak or their stom-
ach, bowels, liver or kidneys are out of
order. They complain of being weak, ner-
vous, tired, out of sorts; they do not sleep
or eat well and wake mornings with dull
head and languid feeling.
Such persons are not in reality sick, but
they are in a fair way to become so if they
neglect themselves. These feelings and
symptoms show that the system is ont of
order, and common sense should indicate
that something must be done to prevent
these conditions running into absolute dis
ease.
young man of our acquaintance, Mr.
Louis Dahl, of Andover. Mass, speaks
strongly upon this subject and speaks also
out of his own experience.
Il had been troubled greatly, he said,
with pains through the chest and heart,
causing constant distress and difficulty in
breathing. After taking DR. Greene's Ner-
vura blood and nerve remedy for short
time, 1 commenced TO steadily i'm
