The Name OF China.

We speak Of "China" and the "Chi-
nese," little thinking that the natives
of the Flowery Kingdom never hear
those terms until after leaving the
place of their birth or coming in con-
tact with some traveller. They have
many names by which they designate
themselves and the land which they in
habit, but "Chincsc" and China" are
not among that number. The most
ancient name of China Ia Ticn Hia,
which signifies beneath the sky"
Since the present ruling house took
control Of the empire in 1850 the name
of Ia Using Kwoh has been applied to
the kingdom as whole, and Chung
Kwoh to that portion known to Ameri-
can RAIDERS as the "Middlc Kingdom. !"

It is a remarkable fact that the
greater number of most distinguished
painters have lived and died free from
the thralldom of Hymen. Take, for
example, the presidents of the Royal
academy. Sir Joshua Reynolds was a
bachelor; Benjamin West, his sue
cessor, was bachelor; SO was Sir
Thomas Lawrence; SO, too, SIR Edwin
Landseer, for he, be it remembered, was
elected president, and his refusal did
not take effect until thirteen days af
terward; so, also, Sir Francis Grant,
and, as everybody knows, Sir Fred
erick Leighton. Maclise, too, who
was offered the presidency and a
knighthood and refused both, was no
more amenable to the idea of mar
riage. Then Turner, Etty, Sir David
Willfie, Sir William Boxall, Sir W. Cor
don and Sir W. c. Ross, all of them re-
garded matrimony with the same aver
sion as Reynolds, who, when he heard
of Flaxman's engagement, exclaimed:
Then he's ruined for an artist"
The celibacy of Raphael and Michael
angelo was to him sacred example,
as sacred as it is to the Priesthood

Told by the Teller,

'In our bank, you know" said the
paying tellor, 1--WE never allow any
cigarette smoking, and part of my
business is to see that nobody comes
into the bank with one of the vile
things burning. Well, the other morn
ing young fellow came in with a
note he wanted certified. He was a
nice, country-loolzing sort of boy,
and must have been new at his busi-
ness, as he wandered all around the
bank before he struck my window.
But as soon as he came up to me /
canght the smell of cigarette. Some
body is smoking a cigarette, thought
to myself, and it must be that boy,
though I don't see one in his mouth.
So l looked at him and said: Have
you cigarette?
"What, sir?' said the boy, as cool
and fresh as Nay morning.
Have you cigarette?'
f'And before | could say another
word that kid made a grab in his
pocket, hauled out box and stuck
them in a my window with the remark;
Why, yes, 'nly--help yorrself?'

The Pie and the Kn ife.

It was in Washington restaurant
and the gentleman at the table may
have looked a congressman to the
waiter who served him. In any event,
the waiter was very polite and attend
ed to his duties promptly. When the
dinner had been disposed of the guest
ordered his dessert, which included
pie. The waiter brought it dnd with
it q knife. The guest looked at the
cold steel and then at the waiter re-
proachfully.
Waiter he said, in tone of disap-
pointment rather than resentment,
"what did 1 ever do to you that you
should have thought was a western

Newman burst out eagerly. "You did

Newman looked flushed and disap-
pointed What did you write me?"
he asked as they walked on. Can you
guess?" she asked. His face showed
his disappointment. ''Oh, 1 guess
know what it was" he said, bitterly,
land it has caused me hours of anguish
and pain, nights of sleepless unrest.
Oh, Miss Bragg, you can't guess how
much it has cost me. 1 have seen no

They walked along in silence.
They were already within sight of Miss
Bragg's home. At the door he stopped
before her and asked, half imolor-
ingly: ''Am to accept your answer as
inal?' She nodded an affirmative.
My answer is final" she said Miss
Bragg" he said, tremulously, 81 can
never forget you I shall think of you
constantly while l am abroad I'm
sorry to have caused you the pain of re-

He held out his hand and took hers
in Strong grasp. "Good-by, Mr.. New

have pleasant trip abroad" Thank
you," he said "Good-by" He gave
her last look and turned to go. ''Mr.
Newman, stop moment" she called.
He walked back to her, his honest face
flushed with pain. II am awfully sor-

Cured. Your letters-I want to return
them. Wait moment till get them"

but she was gone.
She found them just as she had left
them in her cabinet She picked them
up and evened their ends so as to make
a square bundle. She tied the package
with a small satin ribbon. Her own
letter lay on the cabinet. She picked
it up and held it undecisively for mo-
ment Impulsively she tucked it be-
meath the ribbon with the rest.

Recently Adopted by the wclls-Fargo
Express Company.
The following order has been issued
by the Wells-Fargo Express company
and is directed to all of the agents and
employees of the company:
We have been making inquiries re-
Gently into causes leading up to defal-
cations, shortages or dishonesty among
our employees, which, we regret to say,
have been very large i'll number during
the past year. From the result of these
inquiries we are led to make the broad
statement that many Of them, if not the
majority, arose through negligence of
superintendent, route agents or general
agents in failing to caution or reprimand
the more youthful i'll our service against
practices of drinking or frequenting
saloons or other resorts where pernicious
habits are formed and indulged.
Hereafter we shall hold the superin-
tendent, route agent Or general agent
personally responsible for any loss oc-
curing through failure to properly ex-
ercise his authority i'll the matter of
controlling the habits of drinking or
gambling of the men he employs.
An employee seen taking glass of
liquor while OH duty or during business
hours should be cautioned at once, and
OIL repeating the offense be discharged
Immediately. II an employee is known
to drink to excess while off duty and
repeatedly, he should be dismissed from
the service. 1t is expected that you will
know positively whether any of the men
under your supervision gamble, and q
man once found SO doing must not be
retained in the service single day.
These two things-drinking and gam
bling-are the beginning Of nine-tenths
of the defalcations or stealings of our
employees, and, knowing this, yeu are
morally responsible for the wrongdoing
of man you have failed to caution, and
you are responsible to the company for
any loss occurring because of failure to
discharge him when you find your eau
ton is not heeded.
