An amusing account is given in the
experiences Of "An American in Mad
rid During the War" The writer, Mr.,
Edmond Kelly, was called from Paris
to the Spanish capital at the outbreak
OF the war on business OF urgent Inn
portsnce. Fortunately, as he thought,
he spoke French huently and had a
Paris address; and his principal dis
guise was "a foulard crayat, which
Frenchmen tie in loose bow like that
In which our grandmothers tied their
bonnet strings 50 years ago" The Span
ish charge d'affaires at Paris gave him
no encouragement. There was'risk Of
being arrested as spy, and treated ae-
cordingly. Mr.. Kelly found his invasion
OF hostile territory so easy. however,
as to be positively humiliating, lie
spent seven weeks in Madrid, suffering
little or no annoyance, and with his
eyes wide open; and he writes dispas-
sionately of the situation Of affairs
there, his comments being of sub
stantial interest and value.-Century.

rh, chinese Family.

Ono Of the most striking elements IN
Chinese life Is It's solidarity. AS Is wen
known, the family has much larger
function than with us. The marriage
o. a son does not break in upon the
family life, but enlarges It, the daugh-
ter.in-law becoming incorporated IN
the family of her husband. seVeral
generations may be welded toge'ner
In one home, the authority OF the
elders becoming the more absolute
with time. Growing old is certainly
robbed In China Of some OF the terror'
II has among us. The older a man
crows the more weight is accorded 70
lis wisdom. A girl may be worse tnan
