There is in China not only an init
mate aHo in ion between mu-ic and
poetical speech but also between music
and speech sc er.l.y. Ihe Chinese
being a monosyllabic language, it de-
pends to great extent upon musical
in ora ion to convey meaning. If yen
listen to the coaversa' ion of Your
Chinese laundrymen You will discover
that their o dinary speech is almost as
the recjtdtiro Secco Of the Italian opera
Many words in the Chilese language
take from three to six different mean
ings acco. ding to intonation. These
intonations, as DIR. S. Wells Williams
forcibly urges, have nothing to dc
either with accents or emphasis" They
are distinctly musical, and it is muci
to be regre ted that DIR. Williams wa
unable, for obvious want of tn musica

Eoiat Of view, as it is all but imr ossibl
to convey clear understanding O
their nature by description.
There seem to be many variations
but generally there are four of these
into! ions, or Shihg, amed and de-
fined as fo lows: I, ping shi'lg, or
even tone; 2, Shang shing, or iris

WISE WORDS.

Those who offer wares invite rebuff.
Stopping small leak will not save
a sinking vessel.
Hobbies are the most uncomfortable
of all beasts to ride.
One is apt to undervalue what he
has valued overmuch.
There is one body who is wiser than
anybody and that is everybody.
The best way to keep good acts in
memory is to refresh them with new.
The influences that go into us in
boyhood fashion the experiences that
we go into in manhood.
1t is a mistake to suppose that men
succeed through success; they much
oftener succeed through failure.
When woman would see brightness
where she suspects may be blur she
wears silver shining veil before her
eyes.
Open biographical volumes where
you will, and the man who has no
faith in religion has faith in the night
mare and in ghosts.
The foot that treads on the adder
shall be stung; the hand that is
stretched forth with rod instead of a
sceptre shall be cut off.
Sympathy with the human comedy
may be less easy to assure than is
patience to acquire, but generous
measure of the one may make the
other less necessary.
A journalist is a grumbler, cen
surer, giver of advice, regent of
soverelgns, tutor of Nations. -Four
hostile newspapers are more to be
feared than thousand bayonets.
Many mean things are done in the
family for which moods are put for
ward as the excuse, when the moods
themselves are the most inexcusable
things of all. A man or woman in
tolerable health has no moral right to
indulge in an unpleasant mood

"Many persons. afflicted with n
peculiar derahgement of the digestive
organs are seized with an almost un-
comfortable irritability as soon MS they
sit down to eat, more particularly at
the breakfast table, remarked an ex-
perienced Arch street physician. ''This
is caused by a premature secretion of
the gastric juice, due to a too vivid
anticipation of food. To avoid pos
sible insanity, such persons require
careful medical treatment. once at

opened trunk and, drawing forth a
roll of ribbon, proceeded to snip it
into small bits. The trunk was nearly

will be great thing for Alaska when
the herding of reindeer is firmly es-
tablished there on large scale. The
natives will have permanent, regular
and abundant supply of food and with
more generous nourishment, the
population is likely to increase in
numbers. Then achange from the con-
dition of hunters to that of herders
will be distinct advance for the Eski-
mos in the scale of civilization. Rein
deer easily travel 100 miles day, and
their introduction will help to solve
the question of Alaskan transporta-
ton.
A new and profitable industry will
also be added to the country. Rein
deer skins are marketed all over
Europe and are worth in their raw
condition from SIS to 81. rs apiece.

horns is made the best glue. Smoked
reindeer tongues and tanned skins are
among the principal products of the
great annual fair at Mini Novgorod,
Russia. In Lapland there are about
400, 900 head of reindeer, sustaining
in comfort some 26, 900 people. Mr..
Sheldon says there is no reason, con-
sidering the greater area of the coun-
try and the abundance of reindeer
moss, why arctic and subarctic Alaska
should not sustain population of
100, 200 people with 10000 head of
reindeer.

before many years the industry will be

Royal Buckwheats.

For generations it has been the cus-
tom to mix the batter for buckwheat
cakes with yeast or emptyings, retain
ing portion of the batter left over
from one morning to raise the cakes
for the following day.
If kept too warm, or not used
promptly, this batter becomes exces-
sively sour and Objectionable. Buck
wheat cakes raised by this means are
more often sour or heavy than light
and sweets If eaten daily they dis
tress the stomach and cause skin erup-
tions and itching.
Instead of the .old-fashioned way we
have been making buckwheat cakes
this winter with Royal Baking Pow
der, mixing the batter fresh daily, and
find the result wonderfully satisfac-
tory They are uniformly light and
sweet, more palatable and wholesome,
and can be eaten continuously without
the slightest digestive inconvenience
Besides they are mixed and baked IN n
moment, requiring no time to rise.
Following is the receipt used:
Two cups of pure buckwheat flour
mot "prepare1" or mixed), one cup
of wheat -four, two tablespoons of Royal
Baking Powder and one-half teaspoon.
full of salt, all sifted well together Mi1
with milk into thin batter and bake
at once on a hot griddle. Once prop
crly tested from this receipt, no other
buckwheat will find its way to your

Physiological Effect of Music.

The results of numerous expert.
ments made with scientific care by a
Russian physician, to determine what,
if any, are the physiological effects
produced by music, are thus summar-
lied: An influence on the circulation
of blood is noticed, the pressure some
times rising and sometimes falling,
though the action of musical tones and
pipes, both on animals and men, ex-
presses itself, for the most part, by in
creased frequency of the beats of the
heart; the variations in the circula-
tion consequent upon musical sounds
coincide with changes in the breath
ing, though they may also be observed
quite Independently of it; the varia-
tions in the blood pressure are de-
pendent on the pitch and loudness of
the sound and on tone color; in these
variations of the blood pressure, also,
the peculiarities of the individuals,
whether men or lower animals, are
plainly apparent, and even Nationality,

ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the

ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of a perfect lax
alive; efIectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
sists in soc and 81 bottles, but it is man
ufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every

accept any substitute if offered.

man alleged that Sylvestre threw
two stones, one striking him in the
forehead. He was the only one who,
with his own eye, saw the defendant
throw the stone. Others contradict.

produced tho real culprit, a much
smaller lad, who said he'd plead
guilty to the charge il he was sent
to the Reform school. He was tired
Of home, being compelled to work
from morning till night. Sylvestre
was acquitted. The other boy il
