IN COREA.

The CoreansG are very quick, and
bright, and pick up foreign languages
with surprising rapidity. They are sus-
picious and cunning, and never trust
one another or foreigners: J.. Among
them women live secluded life and
are kept in the background.
The Coreans are usually regarded as
a handsome race, for their physique is
good, though the average height is but
little over five feet-yet the men are
very strong. The hands of both men
and women are, without exception,
small, white and exquisitely formed,
and the tapering fingers are carefully
attended to. - ...
Corea is about 600 miles long and 1876
wide. 1t is very mountainous and the
climate is one of the finest in the world.
Nine months in the year the skies are
bright, and the winter is superb, with
its extreme dryness, clear skies and
crisp, frosty nights. From September
to June there are no extremes Of heat
or cold. Manufacturers are unim-
portant and there are no arts.
The Coreans are so different from
their neighbors, the Chinese and Japa-
nese that strangers never have my diff
ficulty in identifying them. While they
have the slant Mongolian eye and com
pleXion varying from brunette to q
.swarthy olive, their noses are straight
and aquiline, with occasionally broad
and snub noses, with distended nos
trils; most Of the .Coreans have black
hair and those who have not cover it
with lampblack and oil to make it so.

Few words have more curious
definition than "bachelor." Originally
it meant students who had taken their
degree. Successful students were
crowned with laurel berries, TIE Latin
for which is baccalaurcus. These stu-
dents were not allowed TO marry. for
fear the duties OF husband ard father
should interfere with their literary
pursuits. So finally "baccalaureate,"
or bachelor" got its present signifi-

that no diseased cattle from Callfor-

The Elko County Cattle Associa-
