Buddhism are taught under the con-
troll of Gagan. or living Buddha.
The studies comprise course of in
struction in metaphysics. ascetic du-
ties, astrology and medicine.
Many Chinese are Confucians. These
follow the teachings of Confucius.

One of the provisions of this creed Is

Chinese Deities.
Contrary to general supposition, the
deities of the Chinese are not myth
cal. Each of them is supposed to be
patterned after and to embody the
noble traits of some man who has
lived in the past. Confucianism is
now well understood, and both Bud
dhism and Taoism have been 80 thor
oughly explored that 1t is hard to be-
lieve that anything of Importance re-
lating thereto is to be discovered. At
least one more book upon this topic,
however, remains to be complied
namely, Chinese neurological die
tionsry. Such work should contain
an account Of all the principal divini-
ties actually worshiped by the Chinese.
with authentic details of such as are
historical, together with record OF
the steps by which many of them have
been promoted in the Chinese pan
theon, until. like Kuan-Ti, the god OF
war. from very humble beginnings
they have become "adjuvant OF
heaven" The number of these divin-
tiles is very large and includes many
that have been continuously worshiped
for over 1000 years. Whether the
Chinese have ever at any time in their
long history had perception or con-
ception of one true God, Father and
Creator of all things" is a question
that has been long and learnedly dis
cussed by scholarly students of their
classical writings. 1t is still an open
question. But there is no doubt at all
that for many centuries past they have
worshiped the sun. the moon, the
stars and host of ancestral deities.
All the gods of China may be said to
have been dead men. and. by the right
of ancestral worship, it may be
affirmed that in sense all the dead
men of China are gods. Temples are

Similar in some respects to the cele-
bration of Christmas in Christian
countries is the observance of the
devils birthday In China. On this an
niversary many costly gifts are laid
upon the altar of the evil one. There
are many other superstitions current.
In sending the kitchen god to heaven

has to burn 1t and let the fumes as
cend. 1t reports on the good deeds of
the family for the year and brings
good luck. Before burning 1t the
housewife dips her finger in a jar OF
molasses and smears the upper and
lower lip of the idol, SO that when he
arrives at the pearly city he may tell
sweet tale on the family and thus in
sure benedictions. A family. when

idol until the card playing is through.

that any one Of these men may not, in

doubt whatever that as nation the

want, your post-ofice address and
the number of years you have e.
chewed politics, or any other little
notation you may give him OF your

LESSONS FROM LOVE.

All women have hearts; a few
have intellect.
Sincere woman loves, a fck'e
woman loves to love and a selfish
woman loves to be loved.
An American girLis sometimes a
volcano, but more often a refriger.
ator.
A womon invariably loves the
wrong man.
The constancy of a pretty woman
depends very much upon the man
she falls in love with.
In Europe a woman would die
twenty times for the man she loves;
in America ste might die if she was
not loved by twenty men at the
same time.
Why should the world find fault
with the man who marries for
money? For my part l believe the
rich should marry the poor, the
rich. 1t makes a more equitable dis
tribution of wealth.
