CHINESE ETIQUETTE.


The Russians have been making
! something Of study OF Chinese man
rcrs and etiquette. and their periodi-
Gals are reporting what has been learn
ed. The latest number OF Russl1ll VII
estnik says it is not surprising thar the
Celestials consider Europeans barbara
ans when they see continually what
they consider bad manners and breach
es of etiquette on the part OF white
men. The proper thing. according to
the Chinese notion, is opposed TO
the European idea. For instance. when
a Chinese welcomes a visitor TO his
house, he does not remove his hat. If
he happens to have It on. He puts his
hat on II he is caught without it. The
seat OF honor at the table is at the left
OF the host. 1t would De considered an
offence If the guest inquired about the
health Of the hostess. or. stil worse.
expressed desire TO be presented to
her. A Chinese takes offence If told
that ne looks younger than he is. The
older the man the more he is respected
Independently OF his qualities, and,
therefore. "A Chinese wishes To appear
older than he really is. He willingly
folglves many offences, but should any
one happen To tread on his foot he Will
refuse TO accept the most humble apol-
ogies. When "A son dies i'm a Chinese
family the bereaved father considers AZ

countenance, no matter what his suffer-
ings may be.
The Russian newspaper asserts that
there is Minister of Etiquette i'm
China known as Li-pu. Ancient books
on manners are accepted by him as au-
thority. The books include POO volumes
Some OF the rules are Draconian i'm
their severity. a Chinese cannot even
build house according 20 his taste. No
matter how rich he Is, Ii is not proper
for him TO build a finer or a higher
house than that of his neighbor if the
latter happens 10 be OF superior rank
socially. In Chinese etiquette there are
eight varieties of the bow. Ignorance OF
Chinese ideas of proprety with regard
TO the bow has often caused embarrass-
ment.
n Chinese. displeased with his situa-
ton, Will not tell his employer the real
reason for resinging, but VIII give poor

led many persons to rcsard the Chi
