WINTERS LAUGHTER.

THE sleighbells are the Winters laughter
That through the yelling snow comes flowing
When flakes are hither, thither blowing
Like airy sprites in all ways going
Blown on by winds that follow after.
1t ripples with mirth beguiling,
With gladness in it's joyous greeting,
Fair, bygone memories repeating,
To hearts grown old in times swift feeting,
Till sad, grave lips unbend in smiling,
And with the sound of light hoofs prancing,
The laughter all its JOY is f1inging
Now here, now there in strains of singing,
Till quick, young feet are gaily springing
And roguish eyes with glee are dancing.
1t ripples with a sweet intoning
Across the snowdrifts' ghostly trailing
And sends it's merry challenge hailing
The voices of the Old Years wailing,
And mocks their soft and plaintive moaning.
The frozen forest waits and listens
To catch the laughter, pealing, shaking
In trills, the sleeping trees awaking,
Till crystals from the branches breaking
Fall ringing where the ice stream glistens.
o slegh-bells are the JOY bells swelling,
When roadsides are with jewels twinkling
To rise and fall in chime and tinkling,
Their showered tones of music sprinkling,
With Winters laughter through them yelling

MINISTER WI TALKS UPON CON-
FUCIANISM.

Mr.. WI Ting Fang, the Chinese
minister to the United States, last Sun
day morning addressed the ethical
society of Philadelphia at Carnegie
Hall upon, "The Teachings Of Con-
fucius."
Just now when there is so much talk
about expansion and the extention of our
religion as we'll as commerce to the
Orientals, it is interesting to note how
the intelligent classes, among the
objects of our unsought philanthropy,
view our benevolence, and how
they would compare their philosophy
and our religion. THE CONSERVATIVE
doubts if the diplomatic representatives
at Washington, of the Christian powers
could express sentiments more helpful
to right living than the following from
Mr.. WI, devotee of heather philoso-
ply:
"In the strictest sense of the word
Confucianism is not religion. 1t is
not system of doctrine and worship.
It is perhaps easier to say what Con.
fucianism is not than what it is.
''The immortality of the soul is a
beautiful doctrine, I admit. I wish it
were true, and hope it is true. But all
the reasoning of Plato cannot make it
more than strong probability. And
all the light of modern science has not
brought us one step further. Now,
Confucius would be called an agnostic
if he were alive today. There were four
things that he would not talk about
extraordinary things, feats of strength,
disorder and spiritual being.
"'How are we to serve spiritual
beings?' he asked. When you do not

OLD FRIENDS.

There are other things in the news
papers besides reports of railroad acci-
dents and police court doings. Occas-
ionally one runs upon the continuation
of story begun long before.
In nice little tale by Mr. Barrie, now
nearly ten years old, called "When a
Mans Single" dealing largely with
literary life in London, one character
relates how he is haunted by particular
piece of work of his own. This is a
story about stick that bred disease
in the owners hand, owing to his press
ing so heavily on it's handle. He got
the story of a friend from the country,
touched it up little, and made half a.
guinea out of it. Having once put it in
circulation, he never could get rid of it,
though it was not much of story and
he was soon weary of it. First the
London correspondents telegraphed it
over the world as an occurrence to
cabinet minister then the Paris papers
told it of Gladstone then it came back
to London with Thiers' name attache d.
Then an American introduced it in
lecture, and showed the stick; then it
came from the Alps as something that
had happened to we'll known guide.
Since then he had heard from it in
Melbourne and Arkansas, seen it in two
biographies and noted with regret it's
growing popularity as club story. So
he wished his rural friend had smothered
it before it was born.
Having this grievous complaint in
ones mind it was gratifying to read, in
October, 1898, in an article from the
Pittsburg Leader, the following: evil
liam Michaels, of Armstrong county,
Pa, recently returned from New York,
where he has spent several months re-
ceiving treatment for very remarkable
disease. Mr.. Michaels has for years had
habit of using an umbrella as walk
ing stick at all times and places The
constant pressure of the handle upon
the ball of the thumb finally caused
diseased condition but rarely recognized
by the medical profession" In fact
there is half column about it, winding
up with the amputation of Mr.. Michael's
arm. 1t is to be hoped that some friend
brought this too to Mr.. Barrie's notice.
Again, an incident reported in the
public prints last August brought forci-
bly, to mind Little Billee's ambition for
his married life with Trilby, the ever
fair. II must have her back" said Little
Billee, among many other things, on
page 202; II can't live without her; we
were to have lived together at Barbizon

painted stunning pictures-like those

know how to serve men, how should
you hope to serve spirits P he replied.
Horace Greeley said that those who
discharge promptly and faithfully their
duty to those who linger in the flesh
have but little time to peer in the
affairs of those who have passed away.
Confucius was intensely human and
practical. He did not spend time specu.
lating as to what will happen after
death"
Love Your Enemies.
The minister then compared the prac-
tical teachings of Confucius with those
of Christ. He read passage from the
New Testament declaring that evil be
not resisted with evil, and that if
man smite you on one cheek you should
turn the other cheek. Of this doctrine
Mr.. WI said:
"This, it seems to me, is meekness
with a vengeance. I am inclined to
think that no sensible man has ever
followed this injunction faithfully. A
man who will smite on the cheek is
dangerous man and needs no second in
vitation. A man who will take your
coat is thief and would doubtless take
your cloak, too, if he could lay his
hands on it.
Love your enemies Such stand
ard of excellence is too high for hu.
manity. There is no likelihood that
many people will follow it. At this
very moment Christian missionaries are
calling for bloodshed and vengeance,
and Christian armies are devastating
the land, sparing neither age nor sex.
There is, indeed, vast gulf between
doctrine and performance. Gould you
love one who had killed your father or
destroyed your home? Confucianism
does not require such thing. 1t en-
joins that kindness be requited with
kindness, and an injury with justice.
1t does not sanction retaliation in a
vindictive spirit, such as, I regret to
say, is shown by some persons profess
ing to be governed by the tenets of
Christianity.
1.-The most striking instance in which
the teachings of Confucius and of
Christ meet is the golden rule. Con-
fucius puts it negatively, to be sure.
DO not do to others what you would not
wish them to do to you,' but anyone
who will follow that rule either way
it is phrased, will be thoroughly good
man.

clan and good Confucian is a good
Christian. I do not believe that Heaven

JAPAN HAS NEVER LOST A SHIP.

Since Japan's national navy began to be formed thirty years ago they have not lost a single ship owing to faulty seamanship. One vessel, a cruiser built in France. disappeared on her way out from Europe, while still in the hands of the French. and one, a gunboat, sank by collision with a foreign steamer in circumstances that did not convict the Japanese of any fault. With these ex- captions. there nas been complete i'm munity from serious accident. a re- markabIe record when we remember that, during more than two centuries immediately anterior to the Meiji era, the law interdicted the construction of sea going ships and Japanese sailors could not acquire any Knowledge Of navigation beyond what was furnished by coastvise voyages in small junks.
 No education could have been less sorviceable for the purpose of modern seamanship, and, when the admiralty in Tokio sent Japanese officers and crews to Europe to bring out line-of- battle ships and first class cruisers, the proceeding seemed rash, if not reckless, to those who knew something of the qualities required for commanding these huge vessels. Nevertheless, the results have hitherto fully justified the Japanese admiralty's confidence in it's officers, and the recent naval maneu- veIs furnish an additional evidence; for certainly it stands to the no small credit of the Japanese navy that a5so- lute freedom from mishap should have marked these intricate evOlutions per formed by two squadrons, aSgregating fifty ships, during a space of as many days. There can be no doubt about Japan's position now as a maritims power, in the orient at all events. Never before under any flag has such a fleet
