CHINESE PRAYER.
Inspired by the First Sight nF a

Bicycle.
 A Baptist missionary once Een9 home an account of a prayer offered by Wang Cheng Sui on the occasion og the visit of two Americans who were on tour around the world on bicg- cles. After the bicyclists had ridden to the mission station Wang prayei: We thank Thee, our Heavenly Fa- ther, that our eyes have this day seen the real pattern of the 'self-go.ng cart of the aneients What mysterious wis dom is Thine! How willing Thou art to impart knowledge to menl But our sins hinder. Thy revelations! How stupid have we become through sery- ing Satan so lengl Many years have We lived, aud yet today for the first time we have seen this marvel of Thy skill, which has enabled Thy servants in the West to understand. Forgive our sins. Restore us to Thy fayor- Communicate to us, also. Thy mys- teries, and let us share in the wonder ful inventions by which Thou dost make Thy name glorious amongst those who serve Thee. Let us be in-- trusted with Thy secrets, and possess the power of the ancients; so with a1l our countrymen come to know that we have found the right path. and are servants of the true God" The mis- sionary thinks is very likely that such prayer will provoke smile, but fe bids us believe that Wang was Tn red hot earnest, and that he simply FelE that he had witnessed a miracle ane was giving God the glory.

AA&es SOW hG COnstuereu A uiKn %onu-
 pliment. <
 Have you ever observed at theater or concert that the. people who are most deeply interested appear between the acts to be quite weary of the whole thing. yawning half a dozen times in succession? The reason of this is a physiological one. When your atten- tipn is much absorbed in anything ex- citing or touching, you breathe in a very shallow manner. and take into your lungs only half enough air. Con- sequently, when your attention is re- faxed, you have to make up the defi- Bency. This you do by yawning which, after all, is only breathing a very deep breath. If you watch a man at play, and observe that he is greatly moved by some incident, you may feel sure that when the scene ends he will sigh, and a moment or two later yawn repeatedly. Of course the yawning, so far from being a sign of weariness, is proof of the liveliest appreciation. Very often you will ob- serve the same phenomenon in a girl reading a novel; And by her yawns you can tell when the end of some ab- sorbing incident is reached.

He Shall, He Shall Not.

The question of cotton weigh
ing at Kershaw is exciting con-
siderable interest. All the buy
ers there, except one, say that
they will 60 out of the market
before the man elected at the
recent primary, Mr.. II. j. CARD.
ner, shall weigh the cotton they
buy. The farmers, or many of
them, are just as positive, we
learn, in their statements that
they will sell to no buyer who
refuses to allow the weigher- elect
to weigh their cotton.
A committee of the farmers
met at Kershaw Thursday to see
if a satisfactory settlement of the
matter could be effected. The
merchants made the committee a
propostion,-what it was we do
not know but it did not meet
with the approval of the com
mitted. So, as we understand it,
the matter stands as it did before
the committee met.
