Chinese Buttons of Honor.

The mandarins of the second class wear
button of coral red suggested perhaps
by cocks comb, since the cock Is the
bird that adorns their breast. The third
class are gorgeous, with a robe on which q
peacock is emblazoned, while from the
center Of the red fringe of silk upon the
hat rises q sapphire button. The button
of the fourth class is an opaque, dark pur-
pie stone, and the bird depicted on the
robe is the pelican, though whether the
legend of this birds feeding its young
from its own torn breast is current In
China for the inspiration of her mandarins
who reach or pass through this fourth
class do not know. A silver pheasant
on the robe and clear crystal button on
the hat are the rank of the fifth class. The
sixth class are entitled to wear an en-
broidered stork and jadestone button;
the seventh a partridge and an embossed
gold button. In the eighth the partridge
is reduced to a quail and the gold button
becomes plain, while the ninth class man.
DARN has TO be content with u sparrow
for his emblem and with silver for his

the floor space has a pink ground with
punches of clover leaves over its surface

tinted in delicate pink oil colors and there
is deep frieze of festoons of pink clovers

The nursery should always have rug
that can be quickly removed in case of i'll

kind. Upholstered chairs and redundant
pillows should also be removed, as we'll as

THE CLERK AND HIS PENCIL.
A Universal Bad Habit For Which There
Is No Justification.

The act of putting a lead pencil to the
tongue to wet 1t, just before writing,
which we notice In so many people, is one
of the oddities Of habit for which 1t is hare
to give any reason, unless ii began In thc
DAYS when lead pencils were poorer thar
now and was continued by example into
the next generation.
A lead pencil should never be wet. Il
bardens the lead and ruins the pencil. This
fact Is known to newspaper men and ste
nographers. But nearly every one else does
wet pencil before using it. This fact has
been definitely settled by clerk in news
paper office
Being of mathematical turn of mind
he ascertained by actual count that Of 90
persons who came into the office to writ,
an advertisement or notice 80 wet pencil
in their mouths before using it.
Now this clerk always uses the best pen
ellis that can be procured-in fact, is con
noisseur in lead pencils, cherishing good
one with something of the pride soldier
feels in his gun or sword-and it hurts his
feelings to have his pencil spoiled But
politeness and business considerations re
quired him to lend his pencil scores of
times every day. And often, after it had
been wet till 1t wGs hard and brittle and
refused to mark, his feelings would over
power him.
Finally he got some cheap pencils, sharp
ened them and kept them to lend. The
first person who took up the stock pencil
was drayman, whose breath smelt of
onions and whisky. He held the point In
his mouth and soaked IL for several min
utes, while he was torturing himself to
write an advertisement for missing bull
dog.
Then sweet looking young woman
came into the office, with kid gloves tina,
buttoncd half the length of her arm. She
picked up the same old pencil and pressed
it to her dainty lips, preparatory to writ
ing an advertisement for lost bracelet
The clerk would have staid her hand, even
at the risk of box of the best pencils ever
made, but he was too late.
And thus that pencil passed from mouth
to mouth for n week 1t was sucked by
people of all ranks and stations and all de
grees Of cleanliness and uncleanliness, but
we forbear. Surely no one who reads thi:
will ever again wet q lead pencil -Londor

that the Defender was beaten, may be
salutary after all. 1t was glazing case
of bogus work, but so big as to meet with
swift exposure and to attract universal
attention. And yet there is a vast amount
of this bogus work done upon certain
newspapers. And the readers gulp down
the stilted sensationalism and so their
way impressed with the idea that fakism
Is enterprise. Evidently that bogus re-
port of a Valkyrie victory will serve as an

The decision of the court that the wo-
men Of Utah cannot vote to accept a con-
stitution which confers upon them the
right to vote, seems to be the only possible
one. Naturally the Democrats hoped they

women will be the most powerful factor
In the suffrage of the women. Without
the Introduction of this element at the

Hon. John w. Foster, who won lame
and fortune in assisting at the settlement
of the Oriental war has been lecturing
upon the subject of the massacres OF the
missionaries by the Chinese 1t is doubt
full If Mr.. Foster during his stay in the
Orient acquired as thorough knowledge
of the conditions governing the common
people and the preiudices held by the
latter, as have many travellers, who have
visited the interior of the country and
associated with all classes. Indeed re-
turned missionaries are better able to
form comprehensive opinion of the
forces at work In the celestial kingdom,
in some respects at least, than is this states
man, diplomat and lawyer. Nevertheless
his opinions attract attention as they
should from his knowledge of the govern
ing classes and of the political forces at
work in that effete empire He says
1.-THE opinion formed by me, after care
full inquiry and observation, is that the
mass Of the population in China, particu
larry the common people, are not specially
hostile to the missionaries and their work.
They have been permitted to penetrate
every part of that vast empire with as
little disturbance as the Chinese laborers
have spread themselves over the United
States, and in case of danger the authori-
ties have usually exerted themselves for
their protection. Occasionally riots have
taken place, but they are almost in
variably traced to the literati, or pros
pective office holders, and the ruling
classes. These are often bigoted and con-
ceited to the highest degree, and regard
the teachings of the missionaries as tend
| ing to overthrow the existing order Of
government and society. which they look
| upon as a perfect system, and sanctifed by
great antiquity" Mr.. Foster also has the
courage to contrast the summary admin
| istration of punishment by the Chinese
officials with the slow and inadequate
methods of procedure in this country
whenever the Chinese have been mobbed
and killed by rioters. Moreover he en-
| tertains the sensible opinion that this
country should itself enforce fair treat
ment of Americans In China and not play
into the hands of any of the greedy
foreign powers seeking a pretext for inter
fering in China's affairs and adds that
China has never yet failed to comply with
our Just demands. We would respectfully
commend this opinion to President Cleve
land and Secretary Olney who hitherto
have relied chiefly upon the English tc
