In the Chinese language the
meaning depends more on the tone
in which the word is spoken than
on the word itself. The same word
may have a dozen different mean
ings, according to the tone in
which it is spoken. This fact not
only makes it difficult for foreign
ers to learn Chinese, but rctards
Chinese progress by making it hard
to keep an accurate and easily
translated record of thought. On
such a record more than on any
one thing progressive civilization
depends.

Big Cotton Cargoes.

The red-letter day in the cotton
trade of New Orleans occurred re-
Gently, eleven vessels having cleared
for foreign ports, carrying a total
of SO, 100 bales of cotton, the largest
shipments for single day from that
or any other American port. Among
these vessels was the British steam
ship Maroa, which sailed for Havre,
France, with Is, 1893 bales. Her
cargo of cotton is valued at $780,
600. This is not only the largest
cotton cargo on record at New Or
leans, but at any point, and 1t is
claimed there are only two other
steamers in the world besides the
Maroa which can carry a like
amount of cotton, namely the
Samoa, the sister ship of the
Maroa, and one of the White Star
line freight ships. The Maroa also
carried 1900 pieces of oak slaves.
This monster freight carrier was
built at Sunderland, England, in
1884, and is owned by the Maroa
Steamship company of Liverpool.
Her dimensions are as follows:
Length, 465 feet over all; breadth,
81 feet; depth of hold, 81 feet 2
inches; she registers $500 tons
gross, 4,451 net, and has a dead
weight capacity of $500 on 26 feet
5 inches draught and a gross dis
placement of about 1880 tons

The Credit System Gong.

In conversation with many of our
leading merchants, says an exchange,
we are informed that there is less credit
today than ever before. People seem
to abhor debt these times. This is a
good sign. Of course debt cannot be
entirely abolished, but by perseverance
and practice many of us. may acquire
the habit of paying as we go. In num-
erOus instances owing is a habit con-
tracted by worthy people who could if
they would be rid of it: To the poor
man with steady employment who is
endeavoring to save something for a
home to fit the growing members of his
family for the inevitable future, the
habit of owing is serious drawback.
The family with a store book nearly
always buys more than is really needed
because it is easy to make bills that are
to be paid a week or month after the
