Who shall follow, who preceded

DRESSES FOR GIRLS.
Dainty Effects With Delicate Lace
Trimming Are Popular.

Dainty girls naturally love dainty dresses,
particularly those of dimity and lawn or
the French ginghams, which are as line as
silk and quite pretty. The very pref
test way to make them up is with full
skirt, on the three-gored pattern, with only
a deep hem for trimming. The waist, of
course, is some vagary of the blouse and
unlined, but has more tucks and frills than
you can shake stick at, and ribbon belts
and bows without end. Al-over embroid-

for both maids and their mammas. Some

The astute beggar knows all about the

China and America.
What ought We Americans do to in
crease our trade with China?'
.One great thing would be the building of
the Nicaragua canal. This would bring
you closer to the Chinese markets You
ought to study the wants of the Chinese
people and make your goods as cheap as
possible, in order to compete with those
which are sent to us from Europe.
Are the Chinese friendly to Americans"
There is no doubt about that" replied
the minister. Both the Chinese govern
ment and the Chinese people are friendly to
the United States They think that the
Americans sincere and just, and they
are glad to be friends with them. There
is some opposition to Americans in South
China. 1t is from this part of the country
that those Chinese whom you have in the
United States have emigrated. Their hos
tility comes from the exclusion act The
rest of the empire, however, is extremely
friendly to America and Americans, and
the influence of these few southern
Chinese is not strong enough to affect the
sentiments of the government or the people
in this regard.
The Missionaries Doing Good.
"How about our missionaries in China?
Are they doing any good?'
Yes, 1 think So replied the minister.
"They are intelligent people, and the better
class of the Chinese know that they labor
with sincere and honest intent. The oppo-
sition to them comes from the lower class
es, and from these classes the majority of
their converts have also come"
DO you think that the Chinese will ever
become Christian nation?"
1T might be So said his excellency,
with a smile. But l think the possibility
is very remote. The doctrines of Confu-
cius have a strong hold upon the people,
and l doubt whether they will ever give
them up for those of Christianity"
China VIII Last.
at is said that China is on the verge of
dissolution, and that the empire will soon
be shattered in pieces Do you believe this
your excellency?" l asked.
mo. 1 do not" replied the minister
China has lasted for a number of thou
sands of years, and 1 expect that the en-
pire will last some thousands of years
longer. The government is strong, the peo-
pie are loyal, and they are fond of peace.
You would be surprised at the great rever-
ence which the people of China have for
| their emperor. They respect the govern
| ment and they are loyal and patriotic 1t
| is true, there are some internal dissensions.
