HUNG CHANGES AMBITION.

London is of the opinion, it seems,
that our old friend, Lii Hung Chang's
denunciation of Ii Ping Hong for
the murder of Christians in the
Celestial empire is proof that the
Oriental statesman means to defy
the Manchu Government and posi-
bly, even seize the throne. Ii has
the sympathy and active support of
the Chinese Minister in England, il
is said, and of the ministers on the
Continent as we'll, it is believed.
Good authority has it, also, that the
Chinese officials throughout Europe
think they have done enough already
to insure their being cut in half if
they should return to Pekin while
the present dynasty holds the reins
of power.
The Washington correspondent of
tbs London Post cables as follows:
"Li Hung Chang's refusal to go
to Pekin and thus put his head in
the trap prepared for him. made it
impossible to continue the semblance
of former relations between himself
and the Imperial authorities. Ii ex-

THE GIRL TO BE AVOIDED.


She is the girl who takes you off
in one corner and tells you things
that you wouldn't repeat to your
mother.
She is the girl who is anxious to
have you join party, which is to
be ''a dead secret; and at which.
because peopleare very free and easy,
you are uncomfortable and wish you
were at home:
She is the girl who tries to induce
you, "just for fun" to smoke a
cigarette, or to take a glass of wine,
and you don't know, and possibly
she doesn't, that many of the sinners
OF to-day committed their first sins
"just for fun"
She is the girl who persuades you
that slang is witty, that loud dress
that attracts attention is stylish"
and that your own simple gowns are
dnwdy and undesirable. She doesn't
know, nor do you, how many women
have gone to destruction because of
their love for fine clothes.
She is the girl who persuades YOU
that to stay at home and care for and
love your own, to help mother and
to have your pleasures at home and
where the home people can see them,
is stupid and tiresome, and that
spending the afternoon walking M
and down the street, looking at the
windows and the people. is "iust
delightful"
she is the girl who persuades you
that to be on very familiar terms
with three or four young men is an
evidence of your charms and fascina-
ton, instead of being, as it is, an
outward visible sign of your perfect
folly.
She is the girl who persuades you
that it is a very smart thing to be
referred to as "a gay girl" She is
very, very much mistaken.
And of all others she is the girl
who no matter how hard she NAV try
to make you believe in her, is the
girl to be avoided.

A Wonderful Offer to Women.

We have received word Of a most remark

The Delineator, of New York.
Taking the fact that next year begins q
new century, The Dclipealor. offers 10 distri-
euto SlT,5o0 among 1901 women. Tho plan
Is so oleverly arranged that a woman living in
s small town or village, has Just as good a
Shahee TO WIN one of these 1901 prizes as a
woman living in a city-becauso the prizes
arc given for the number OF subscrintons
secured in town in proportion to the popu.
atlon OF that town, instead OF being giyen
SIMPLY TO those who send tho largest list Of
suoscroers-which,o of course are most easily
obtained IN blg cities. Another clover feat,rn
OF the plan is, that all tho cities and towns of
tho United States and Canada have been mr..
ranged IN seven classes. Tho cities of the
greatest population arc grouped in Class
ana ss ,heso cities arc not very many, the
prizes offered are twenty-eight; tho high
est przo being $500, and tho lowest So. 90.
Inc Total amount Of prizes given away in this
class is $1,000. The remaining smaller towns
and villages fall into six other classes, ana as
tho number OF towns in class increases. be-
cause, OF course, there are moro small towns
than large ones, the amount Of prizes given
away TO class increases, so that in Class 7
thero will DO $4,000 distributed among Col
winners.
Furthermore 10 everyone who fails 10 win
ono OF tho 1901 prizes there will DO paid an
extra commission on subscriptions, provided
they equal one out Of every two hundred in
hab'Gants OF tho town from which the con-
teStant sends them.
THIS is altogether 4 very liberal ofTor. and
one which tho famous old Delineator is we'll

crowd and your progress on the street
and at the same time actually try to

Gage to the Rescue.

1t is now Gage vs.. Gage, Some
weeks ago the Secretary of the
Treasury stated in an elaborate re-
view of the gold standard bill enacted
at the last session of Congress that it
was a complete and satisfactory
measure; that as long as it renamed
on the statute books the flnanceo of
the country could not be placed up
on a silver basis, In an interview
printed by Administration organs
throughout the country--an inter-
view approved by the President, it is
sald-Mr. Gage reverses himself and
makes some assertions, intended to
be alarming, about the terrible
things a silver President could do to
our currency system. Mr.. Gage has
made an excellent Secretary of the
Treasury and has in large measure
the confidence of the people. They
accepted as a true statement of the
situation his first review of the obli-
cations imposed upon the President
by the gold standard law passed by
the Fifty-sixth Congress, and they
tind no reason to reverse their conclu-
sions. Mr.. Gage is loyal to an Ad-
ministration which is seeking re.
