Pay Day In china.

New Years is the national pay day
in China. All accounts must be squar
ed up at that time, and the man who
can't raise money enough to pay his
debts has to go into bankruptcy. The
laws are such that the creditor can en-
ter the debtors house and take what
he pleases If there is no settlement.
To prevent such action families club
together and make all sorts Of COM
promises to keep up the business repu-
tation Of the clan. New Years is a
great day for the pawnbrokers. Their
shops are crowded with people who
want to redeem their best clothes be-
fore the new year. There are crowds
also who want to pawn other things
IN order TO get money to pay their
debts. P~awnbrokers receive high rates
of interest, in which they are protect
ed by the government:
The Chinese paint the whole country
red on New Years day in more senses
than one. Red is the color which with
them denotes good luck and prosperi-
ty. and all the New Years cards and
invitations are on paper Of that color.
Every child gets it's New Years pres
ent wrapped in red paper. and red in
scriptions are pasted over the doors of
the houses.-London Mail.

His Time tn Eight.


"When General Grant was presi-
dent" said a Washington man, "a GER
tain friend of his came out of the west
to see him. One day, just after leaving
the White House, this friend fell in
with a fellow westerner in the White
House grounds. and Il heated encounter
took place, which suddenly terminated
by the generals friend knocking the
other man down and out.
The matter was hushed up, but the
general, naturally Indignant. called his
friend to account, saying: John, you've
treated me and the office | hold with
much discourtesy. Why did. you do
such a thingy
We'll. it was this way, general re-
piled the now thoroughly penitelit one.
You know there was bad blood be,
tween us, and he had set all sorts of
stories going about me. Just after
leaving you | ran into him, and he at
once accused me of doing a certain
thing. AS it was a lie l only laughed
at him. Then he accused me of
thing else. and that being also a lie
jeered at him again. but his third accu-
sation was true, and, by CAD, sir. |
couldn't stand that. so ! knocked him
down. New York Tribune.

The disease. Ii is now well known that
it is mainly the tuberculosis expectora-

saliva-eXpectorating only in proper
vessels, spittoons and pocket TASKS,

Is OF the rarest occurrence for an at

The GrumbIinr start,

A noted divine has declared that a
husbands grumbling and scolding
were often only his way of beginning
a conversation. and he maintained that
If a man were sulky the worse he was
the more cheerful his wife should be.
Certainly husband and wife should
bear and forbear, he says. and the soft
answer turneth away wrath more eff
fectively by the domestic hearth than
elsewhere. Then business is often wor-
rying. and the husband coming home
needs and usually deserves to find
there all soothing and calming inlu-
ences. But surely it should be mutual
kindness. AT times the man must take
his turn in meeting irritability or low
spirits with ~cheerfulness and kind,
gentle consideration. AS to the theory
that the wisest and best course is for

what Tesls seyeet.s.

EE
Thomas Edison used to have Nikola
Tesla working for him in his studio
near Paris. Tesla came to him one
day asking for work, and Edison. who
needed help. referred him to the fore
man, named Fulton. The latter took
the young foreigner on condition that
he would work. This Tesla did. For
three days and nights he never closed
his eyes, At the end of the first fort
night he had not had 4S hours sleep all
together, and Fulton. the foreman,
made him take a rest. He also said TO
the young man that on account of the
strain they had both been under they
had better have a good meal.
Accordingly the foreman and the
student went to a well known cafe
OF one of the b%oulevards and got one
of the biggest and thickest steaks pos
sible. 1t was a whopper and seemed
to be overwhelming for two. Besides,
the furnishings were liberal, and there
was enough good wine. Between them,
however, they managed to make ey,
erything disappear. and then Fulton.
turning TO Tesla. asked him ii there
was anything else he would like.
"Iou're out with me. you know. and
whatever you want just order it,.
Tesla looked vaguely around for a
minute, as If making up his mind. and
then hesitatingly said, "Mr. Fulton. if
you don't mind I would like another
steak."-San Francisco Argonaut.

that African pest, the ''jigger," whose
scientific name Of pulex penetrans de
scribes him and his habits concisely

in miniature of the common flea (PuleN
irritans). but instead of merely inliiet-
ing a comparatively innocuous bite he
burrows under the skin, close to the
toe nails for preference. and then pro-
ceeds to propagate the species.
Unless he is very carefully removed
the sores cause the most intense irri-
tation and may lay a man up complete

is to widen the hole in which he has
entered and then extract him, intact if
possible. with q needle, care being tax

bic to march much after removing jig
gers. but unfortunately it is frequently
unavoidable.

mel Macdonald once told me that dur
ing his first visit 10 Uganda some ma
tives caught a leopard in one of the
banana plantations whose feet were so
thoroughly diseased from jiggers that
he was quite unable to move or to de-
fend himself.

His Mistake Ms to American Girls.

p AS " 0lE1Ss
A Louisville girl who was recently in
Germany me a young English officer
who was in the same city, and. in fact,
in the same house with her for two
mouths. studying German for his pro-
motion. Like most Europeans, ne had
the usual absurd IDEAS about the girls
Of this country, who, in the minds of
the untfaveled foreigner, are rather
hogdcn creatures, who smoke and have
other masculine traits.

iette, aud upon her refusing it he said:

never cigarettes. only pipes. If you Will
get that pipe off the maptelpiece in the
next room I shall be charmed to smoke
with you.
Not suspecting the joke she was play
ing on him, the officer brought the pipe
and filled it. and it was not until he
saw the wry faces his friend made in
attempting to carry the Joke that
he appreciated the situation. He was
continually telling the American in a
tone of surprise that she was just like
the girls at home in England. and her
rejoinder was:

Miss Proctor,s Mistake.

Miss Mary Proctor, the astronomer
n lecturer, frequently gives her per-
n services toward entertaining
poor children and adults. Generally
her lectures are well received. Now
and then there are exceptions. On one
occasion a bright eyed little boy, who
sat in the front row with his eyes
tSed upon the speaker. was asked how
he liked it. Il guess" he said. sit was
pretty good. but she ought to talk
about lions and tigers. That's better
for everybody"
At another lecture a youngster crit
icised her as follows: Its all very we'll
to talk of weighing and measuring
stars. There are some people. of course,
who believe that sort Of thing, but if
b thinks she can fool us boys with
such fairy tales she's very much mis-
taken"

Boomerangs Not New.

The Australian a%borigines are not the
only users of the boomerang, nor were
hey the first to use that missile. The
Egyptians knew all about it, just as
they seem to have known all about ev-
erything else. AT the present day the
boomerang is used by some American
Indian tribes and by the D~ravidian
races of the Indian peninsula. The
Missile used by the last named differs
In thai 1t is thicker than the usual
form and does not return to the throw
er. The return of the boomerang is
due to the action of the wind, the
shape of the weapon and the I'M
in which it is thrown.
