JUST at present China seems to be embroiled in
the meshes Of European complications of more or
less magnitude Today she presents the appearance
of being the source of brutal massacres that have
shocked the whole civilized world. The society
known as the Boxers, set of the worst reptiles
that have invested the earth since the days of Philip
H. of Spain and his horde of hirelings. This band
of cutthroats have their organizations all the
Chinese empire, and, according to the boldness of
their recent operations evidently working out
their destruction of death under imperial sanction
and protection The purpose of the Boxers is the
stamping out of missionaries and to prevent the in
PRODUCTION of European methods. We do not ques-
ton the right of missionaries to invade that country
any more than we do the Chinese exclusion act
promulgated by this country. But we do question
the right Of European powers to browbeat that
crumbling empire such fimsy pretext In this
country Mormonsm has received the scant
courtesy at the hands of those holding different be-
liefs, as the missionaries encounterng in China
The Chinese undoubtedly think considerable more
of their creeds than they do of the various doc
trines of foreign missionaries. Notwithstanding
this fact the process of undermining that country
goes merrily on.

THE RARITY OF SINCERITY.

In ALL phases of life the love of sham permeates
the social fabric In all classes and all degrees of
responsibility can be found people whose manners
are false, whose culture is assumed and living is
artificial and who in their expression of character
betray but surface indications of their true self
They live in an atmosphere of sham and deception
knowing no observable standard of truth, openness
of nature and sincerity of thought but mask
everything with the unreal and dishonest.
The poor affect to enjoy the luxuries of the rich,
concealing, through false pride, their meager
resources and standard of living The ignorant ape
the knowledge of the educated, their manners and
their culture The worthless and shiftless profess
the ability and experience of the capable and around
all is the lurd glare of vanitythe vanity that sets
social position above all other human achievements
all truth and morals
The spirit of insincerity pervades everything
social. moral or business and knows no fetch but
deception Naturalness is at discount in business
The smile of guile that passes for urbane geniaty
is of far value to the merchant than unadorned
truth. On the hypothesis that people like to be
humbugged, if they not told of it, bargains are
made and contracts consummated.
Pride is potent factor in keeping alive this
spirit of insincerity There is that does not
like to be we'll thought Of fattered with praise and
valued above real worth In the strife to enjoy these
sweet bonmots of palaver resort is made to the de-
vices of trickery and the assumed of decep
ton by which personality and ability be stamped
with false labels and bogus certificate given char
acter.
Ability is the one thing men wish overrated It
cuts to the quick to be declared untitled for any po
stion that envy covets ambition cherishes. Fail
ure and defeat easily met if their arrival be
attributed to anything other than lack of ability
The object of all moral training is to give the
full measure of sincerity to character Genuine
preston of thought, emotion or action which flow,
spring like, naturally and pure from the heart; free
from fraudulent aectation, indicate the uition of
all precepts embraced in all moral standards To be
frank is to be honest and honesty is the sum total
of all other virtues An open face is magnet that
attracts all that is worthy of friendship that is
titled to honor and that the badge of respecta-
bility. To practice insncerity is to be dishonest,
and when habits of dishonesty formed, moral de-
generation follows.

Colonel Claybank, fiery South
erner who went out of the Union
when his state did, and fought
bravely through the war, refused
to be RECONSTRUCTED" after the war
was over.
"Once Confederate always a
Confederate" he was wont to say,
and although he recovered from
the bitterness engendered in the
four years of strife he regarded
himself as an alien in the restored

When the war with Spain broke

In case before Paris court, in
which popular actress has had to
appear as witness, the Judge
seems to have shown considerable
difidence about asking the lady,
as he was in duty bound to do,
what was her age. Evidently he
considered that such a question,
put to such witness, would be a
direct Indictment to perjury.
The way in which he got out of
the difficulty was ingenious, al
though decidedly irregular. He
asked her her age before she had
been sworn.
"How old are you, MADAME" he
said.
After little hesitation the lady
owned to being 90 years Of age.
"And now that you have told
the court your age" con-
tinued the gallant judge, "you

truth and nothing but the truth"
