The Chinese CONT

The ceremonial of the Chinese court is
somewhat exacting. 1t used to include,
II 1t does not now, complete prostration
before the throne. Last century Per-
sian envoy refused to go through the de-
grading ordeal Directions were given to
the officials to compel him by stratagem
to do so On arriving one day at the en-
trance to the hall of audience, the envoy
found no means of going in except by q
wicket, which would compel him to
stoop very low. With great presence of
mind and considerable audacity the en-
bassador turned round and entered back
ward, thus saving the honor of his coun-
try.-London Standard.

The mansion of Lord Willoughby Is one

The property, after tho death of Lord
Wuloughby, went to his family, and for
several generations it was their residence.
