DOMESTIC LIFE IN KOREA.

weakness is hats. His imagination runs
wild on hats, and he wears vast variety
of them. The ordinary rain hat looks like
fan when 1t Is folded. 1t is made OF
oiled paper.
Koreans are engaged to be married as
early as their parents can arrange the
business part of the transaction satisfac-
torily. In many ways they resemble the
Chinese much more than the Japanese.
For instance, they have the strongest dis
like to washing or bathing Not to put

posed to battle only twice in his life-when
he first enters the world and when he
takes leave of it. Unlike the Japanese,

News of the STATE.
IONA, Mich, Sept. "A case of at
tempted suicide remarkable for the
elaboration shown by the person seeking
death, came to the notice of the authori-
ties here. Mrs. e. A. Maynard of Grand
Rapids came to this city and registered at
the Bailey house. At 10 o'clock next
morning the door of her room was broken
open, the clerk having knocked ineffectu-
ally several times. The woman was found
in an unconscious condition with bottle
of chloroform at her nose. Restoratives
were applied and she was brought to life.
Mrs. Maynard was attired in her best
clothing. She left letter for her hus-
band, who lives at Grand Rapids. In it
she made all arrangements for her flu
neral. In the letter she said that she
wanted nice casket, a fine robe, and
hearse, and some flowers in the shape of a
star. She even named the hymns to be
sung at the funeral, which was to have
been held Sunday morning at Orleans
Center, N. Y. She left 500 for her ex-
penses. 1t is said that she had separated
from her husband and came here expect
ing to effect reconciliation. The couple
went together to Grand Rapids, but
failed to agree. She then returned to this
city and attempted to end her life.

boards until a beautiful polish is produced.
Thus the heaviest expenses to a Korean
man in life arc his laundress' destructive
ness, his pipe and his hat. Quite poor
man will pay as much rs SO for hat, and
the amount of tobacco he consumes is enor-
nous.
Korean women to the western eye are
both hideous and ungainly, whereas the
men and young boys are often extremely
handsome and picturesque There Is no
grace or elegance in the female dress
which in some respects resembles that Of
the Chinese. In Korea all ceremonial
visits are paid in carrying chair.
Korean women labor under terrible
bondages. Women of the upper classes
live life of seclusion. They do nothing
at all. They are totally uneducated, and
they are allowed to SEQ no one but their
husbands, parents and very few female
friends The horny handed daughters OF
the soil enjoy more liberty, although they
are nothing better than human machines.
Besides her household duties and the
bearing of children the Korean wife COM
bines the duties of gardener, stable boy
and field laborer, and she has to wait per-
sonally upon her husband. The malo Ia
borer, on the contrary, has q very good
time. If he is fortunate enough to own a
small patch of land, he need only help his
beast of burden (wife) during the harvest
season. The land is so fertile and his de-
mands on the luxurics of life are so mod
cratic that tho rest of the year he may
spend in idleness and smoking.

Standards of the Purity of Water.

The popular standards of the purity Of
water are clearness, tastelessness and col
orlessness, and yet they are in reality less
desirable qualities than are softness, free
dom from putrescible organic matter and
stability in storage. For instance, a color
less and perfectly clear ground water, es-
pecially when high in nitrates, will, If
confined in open reservoir, promote and
support more vigorous growth of organ
isms and may become fouled and polluted
to much greater extent than will many
surface waters similarly confined and
either deeply colored by dissolved vegeta-
BILE matter or loaded with clay and sand
in suspension. Likewise q water meet
ing the requirements of the popular stand
ard, but containing much lime and mag
nesia, particularly in the form of sui
pilates, is unfit for use in boilers and
houses, while ground water containing
peroxide of iron will cause much trouble
and annoyance by the deposits of iron rust
in the distribution pipes and will prove
very unsatisfactory in washing and in
cooking, says The Literary Digest.

WATER DRINKING IN TYPHOID.
Copious Drinking of Water Lowers the
Fever and Is Otherwise Beneficial.

Fever and Is Otherwise Beneficial.
a medical journal states that Euro
pean physician, DIR. Maillart, has been
convinced, as result of his study of the
subject of the great value OF copious wa
ter drinking in the treatment of typhoid
fever In order that the treatment may
be efllcacious, the patient should drink sew
eral quarts of water daily during tho whole
febrile period. There is no contra indica-
ton to this treatment. Feeblenoss Of tho
heart, far from contra indicating the
drinks, may become n special indication
for them. The results arc n progressive
lowering of the fever disappearance of tho
dryness of the tongue and mouth and pro-
nounccd ISOLATION of all tho alarming nerv-
Gus, circulatory and renal phenomena.
These results are due to the oxidation OF
toxines and refuse material, which arc
rendered soluble and eliminated. The oxi-
dalton is shown by tho formation of great
quantities of urea, and the elimination
takes place by the skin and kidneys in the
form of profuse sweating and abundant
diuresis. The diuresis re-establishes in
tegrity of tho renal filter, and that results
in the rapid disappearance of albuminuria.
This method of treatment has no notable
influence on the course or the duration Of
the disease. No unpleasant consequences
have been observed to result from tho
treatment either during the fever, during
convalescence or after recovery. Tho
treatment, which is very acceptable to the
patient is easily carried out, even in cases
In which nervous disturbances are very
decided.

The Land of Promise

Is the mighty West the land that ''tickled
with hoe laughs with harvest" the Ell
Dorado of the miner; the goal of the agri-
cultural emigrant. While it teens with all
the elements of wealth and prosperity, some
of the fairest and most fruitful portions of
it bear harvest of malaria reaped in its
funess by those unprotected by medicinal
safeguard. No one seeking or dwelling in
malarial locality is safe from the scourge
without Hostetters Stomach Btters. Emf
grants, bear this in mind. Commercial
travellers sojourning in malarious regions
should carry bottle of the Bitters in the
traditional gripsack. Against the effects of
exposure, mental or bodily Oyerwork, damp
and unwholesome food or water, it is an in
fallble defense. Constipation, rheuma-
tism, billOusness, dyspepsia, nervousness
and loss of strength are all remedied by
this genial restorative.

Looks Rather Fishy.

ALLEGAN, Mich, Sept. 24.-Ira Hurd
a-cooper, aged Al, left home stating that
he was going to neighboring village to
stay all night. Instead, he appears to
have watched his house. His wife says
that while she was kneeling at prayer at
her bedside man entered her room. She
reached for her revolver and shot him,
turned up the light and discovered that it
was her husband. The ball lodged in his
brain and he lived two hours, but did not
regain consciousness.
ALLEGAN, Mich, Sept 25.-The coroner's
jury held a secret inquest upon the re-
mains of Ira Hurd, who was shot at his
home by his wife, as the latter claims, by
accident, Saturday night. The revolver
with which she claims to have fired the
fatal shot, it transpires was not dis
charged at all, but one bullet had been
extracted. 1t is the general belief that
the shot was fired by another person, who
was with Mrs. Hurd at the time Hurd
had suspected his wife, and it was in an
attempt to catch her that he was shot.
