l think the best speech l ever heard
for obedience TO the rules of the art
was an address of about ten minutes
by a young Salvation Army officer on
the streets of Chicago. l listened with
amaZement. He was perhaps twenty-
three years of age, with delicate. clear
cut features, sensitive mouth and mar
velously intelligent eyes. l was just
passing the group as he stepped into
the circle that always surrounds these
noisy but sincere enthusiasts. He took
on his hat. and in a very low, per-
fectly natural and very sweet voice.
speaking exactly as though he were
having Il conversation with his most
confidential friend. he began: You
Will admit. my friends, that human
happiness is the problem of human
life" And from this striking sentence
he went on TO another equally moving.

not be secured by travelling any of the
usual roads, but only the straight and

Women.s Embarked Sphere.

Women earn their daily bread in
almost every branch of human in
dustry. Women make or help to
make collins, bricks, ties. ever pipes.
tools, boxes, barrels, furniture. They
are in all the professions; they are
stockholders and partners in various
kinds of business, and as to the more
conventional occupations of women
they are galore. In the more I'M
usual way we have had a woman an
thropologist. a woman forester, wom-
en- who mine and women who deal
in stocks. One woman spent fifty
years making a bead house and late
ly was found dead with her unfinished
work before her.

The DANGER from China.

The real yellow peril" will be pres
ent when the Chinese are awakened
to the full knowledge of the resources
of their empire and have their atten-
ton strongly directed to manufactur-
ing. What the civilized world has
most to fear is the arousing of China
from her present %lethargic condition
to a realization of the possibilities
within her reach. The Chinese are in
dustrious and thrifty. They are will
ing to work and to work for small
wages. They can easily be taught to
do almost anything. They quickly
become expert operatives in cotton
factories and it would not be difficult
to teach them to be skiflful workmen
in all kinds of manufacturing.
