NO sentence to a county Jail is
greatly dreaded by a hardened criminal
1t gives him in most cases an assurance
of better housing and of better food
than he is in the habit or gaining by any
other mode of exertion. On the other
hand, whipping is dreaded by every one,
man or child. We shrink from it first
and most because it hurts. 1t is no de-
gradation to boy to be whipped by his
father, or by his master at school. That
is not his objection to it. He feels that
it is a reasonable and natural conse-
qEence oftmisdoing, and leaves him bet
ter rather than worse. The sailor and
the soldier, until recent years, met it in
the same way and with no loss of spirit
or of loyalty to their flag. Custom for
them had disassociated it from disgrace.
1t was simply retribution. Among ci-
villains. however, to the grown man it is
and always was mark of degradation
in the eyes of the community But as a
penalty for, crime it is a consequence of
degradation rather than a cause of it.
it was the crime that really degraded.
Governor Buckingham of Connecticut
once stated that no white man nad ever
been whipped twice under judicial SEN
tence in that state There have been
many who have gone back to Jail 10
and 20 times''
Rev. Phoebe Hanaford said: ''The
whipping post is the best thing for wife
beaters. Justice and mercy both require
it. Ii man is fined his family suffers
che loss of so much money. If he is
imprisoned the family will be deprived
of the wages which he might be able to
earn. Then, again, the fear of bodily
pain viii deter him from abusing his
wife more than the thought of going to
jail. The whipping should not be pub

ing to the punishment of the wife beater,

The young man who had for months
loved her in secret saw his chance. Ev-
cry time he had ever attempted to say
anything sentimental to her she switched
him off on to politics or the social prob
lem, but at last the moment for which he
had longed had come. Drawing in full
breadth, he replied:
No! How could the world degenerate
with woman doing so much to run it?
How could the world be otherwise than
better since you have interested yourself
in it?'

subtle Efforts to Create DissentiOns
Among Different Classes of For
eigners In the Fiowery Kingdom.
The Royal Dispute.
One of the most potent forces i'll opera
tion TO inci,e the Chinese public against
foreign devils, says writer in the
New York Herald, Is the publication and
wide but discreet circulation of handbils,
placaIds. posters. pamphlets, and even
books of various sizes. They are not the
work OF either iguorar or iliiterate men,
and have been gorten out i'll all forms to
appeal TO ali classes. Some of the publ
cations, indeed, are scholarly and in the
mandarin cOlloquial: others i'll poetry and
prose, with illustrations and without.
But no matter how fauitlcss the appear
ance or classical the production. the idea
desired to be conveyed is invariably, from
a Christian standpoint. either brutally in
delicate or frightfully blasphemous.
The factor which has been found to
have the greatest effect of late is the car
toOn. The uncultured Chinaman has no
natural delicacy, and to appeal to him
an illustration must be made in the plain
est possible way. Thus the educated
Chinaman has found that where cody
would read the most malignant text ever
written with inactive anger his wrath
would bubble over were the text accom-
panied by a frankly explanatory picture.
Acting upon this, the publishers began
to reduce their long winded TRADES and
to elaborate the pictures SO that they
might speak for themselves. The result
is a dissemination Of series of the most
wrath provoking illustrations ever pub
licly placed before the gaze of man.
The publishers of the cartoons have no
thought of making money out of their
circulation. The trade does not keep
them on sale. They cannot be excused
even on the score of filling popular de-
mand. Certain individuals or political
associations have them printed and them
selves accomplish their circulation by
means of agents, who distribute them di-
rectly among the people or, when prac-
ticable, post them on walls. Naturally
this occasions an expenditure of funds
by no means small, which is met by Off
cials and gentry interested. In order to
make their effects more sweeping the
blocks from which the pictures are print
ed are duplicated and sent to different
