The Thorough Woman.

Thoroughness would be a good onward
cry fer the advancing women-I say ad
vancing with emphasis, for really tlic
advanced women are not on hand in any
considerable number.
To large extent those who are to be
Of value when they arrive are holding
back for good equipment.
They know that men require proper
mental habiliment for tho war of life,
and the first rate women who ozpect tc
cope-not fght-with first rate men in
the struggle Of the world realize that
they must be prepared to halt for 1e.
pairs. And thorou9hness is mighty fine
battleax.
Putting on little veneer and pretend.
ing to know never deceives ourselves,
and rarely any one else, save for very
short time. Life, like love, is leveler,
and if we live among folks they soon
find out just how much wo don t know,
and the weak spots in our armor become
the bullseyes for their shafts.

The Chinese.

The merchant class of China is COM
posed of polite, patient, extremely
shrewd, well dressed pattern shopkeep-
ers. The leisure class is graceful, pol
ished and amiable, but the peasantry
remind one Of the country folk of Eu-
rope, excepting Russia.
AS compared with Japan, one feature
of every view is strikingly in favor of
China. The dress and behavior Of the
Chinese will not offend Europeans. The
women are modest and dress in a baggy
garment which completely covers them.
In spite Of their Inodesty Chinese
girls do flirt and in proper European
fashion. At church they make eyes at
the young men and on the way to school.
The most beautiful women Of China
are Of Soo-Chow They are, as q rule,
prettier than the women Of Japan.
The Chinese thrash rice by taking a
handful and beating q log with it to
scatter the kernels on the ground. The
farmers break up the soil and punch
holes in it for seeds with a stick.
Women who are married wear their
back ha;r in coil held in place by q
narrow bar Of gilt metal or imitation
jade stone. The young girls wear the
coil at one side of the lead and stick q
white flower in.-Exchange.

Derivation OF Fad.

Tho derivation of this word is posi-.
bly, traceable in the Welsh language By
tho law Of mutation Of initial conso.
nants peculiar to that tongue the root
words ffedd and medd arc convertible
terms Thor essential meaning is pos.
session. trausitive or intransitivo, nos.
session of something, or the act of being
possessed or engroSSed by some occupa.
tion or vice. Welsh medd, and Irish,
Sanskiit, and English mad, have simi.
lar meanings and are probably kindred
words
The word mad is not common in
Teutonic idioms, so that the Anglo. Sax
ons probably borrowed it from the
Wclsh. Fad is therefore equally deriya.
ble from ffedd, Proximately, OF course
it comes from the midland dialects aud
ultimately from some root word com.
mon to many members of the Aryan
family Of speech 1t would be strange
II tho two words, mad and fad. having
a similar meaning, should be traceable

Doctors Ellis.

The Chicago Tribune publishes an ac.
count Of an interview with member of
firm in that city whose business con-
sists chiefly in the collection Of doctors
bills. He was asked if the majority of
patients paid their accounts and said
that they did not. From this it would
be inferred that in Chicago over one.
half of the patients failed to pay their
doctors fees, statement that is extraor
dinary and improbable We believe
that in most American cities from 70 to
80 per cent Of the fees charged are paid
and collected, and probably larger per.
centage would be obtained if doctors
rendered better service or managed the
business side of their profession in n
moro rational manner. Medical Rec.

THE RUIN OF THE YEAR.

Along the hills and by the sleeping stream
A warning falls and all the glorious trecg-
Vestures Of gold and grand embroideries-
Stand mute as in q sad and beautiful dream,
Brooding on death and natures vast undoing,
And spring that came an age ago and fed,
On summers glory long since drawn to red,
And now the fall and all the slow, soft ruin,
And soon, come day, sweeps by the pillaging
wind,
The winters wild outridor, with harsh roar,
And leaves the meadows sacked and waste and
thinned,
And strips the forest Of its golden store,
TIL the grim tyrant comes, and then thoy SOW
The silent wreckage, not with salt, but snow.
