HOW THEY TRADE IN CHINA.
Americans Would Be Exasperated b


Americans Would Be Exasperated by
Such Absurd Methods.
When man or woman goes into a
shop in China clerk, with much cere-
mony, brings fragrant tea, which is
served in fine style. The compliments
of the season are exchanged, there are
talks about the weather-in fact, every
kind of evasion is employed to keep
away from the real reason of the visit,
which is to buy something. The pro-
prietor solemnly watches these pro-
ceedings from afar. The style of COM
pliment is of this order: "In what ce-
lence purchase the superfine garments
upon which l feast my eyes? Surely
in no miserable and unworthy land like
our own?" When the tea and talk are
exhausted the little pipe bearer, who al
ways attends his master or mistress
out of doors, lights a pipe for his en-
ployer. There are only a few whiffs
in each pipeful, SO the process has to be
frequently repeated.
Then business begins. The shopper
asks the price of the required article
and makes an offer that is much lower
This is promptly refused in language
that is courteous and polite beyond de-
scription. Then the possible purchaser
departs with great dignity and ele-
gance. When bargain is completed
the purchaser never pays it himself
The chief steward is called, notified
that the article has been accepted, and
when the bill comes in the "bOy" settles
it, giving an account quarterly to his
master of money disbursed for the
household. Money as we have it is un-
known in China. There are no silver
dollars, no fractions of dollars, as quar-
ters and 1O-cent pieces, no paper bank
notes. There is a coin called "cash"
with hole punched in the middle that
is used for small transactions. Cash"
can be strung like beads on a string. 1t
takes 100 pieces to equal the value of
one standard cent. Gold is only used
for ornaments in China, never for cur
rent coin.

THE NEW COAT
OF The PRINCE
he Has Discarded the Prince Albert
Made Famous by His Father, and
Is Wearing New Style.

Double-breasted hock coats are old
fashioned now. The Prince Of Wales
said SO the other day by appearing In
new kind. And yet his own father,
Prince Albert, gave the name to the
coat which is now laid aside.
The new coat differs from the old one
in having single row of buttons 1t
greater change from two rows of buttons
placed equi-distant to one row? The
Prince wore such a coat at the Queen 5
garden party. and, of course, that settled
it for all fashionable London.
In the back, too, there is a remark
able change The buttons exactly touch
the small of the lumbar region, which
is not the fashion for tho ordinary "frock-
ers' And most remarkable of all. the
lapeis are faced TO the outside edge
with silk. instead of showing a couple
Of inches of cloth.
The coat Just meets across the chest.
U1e buttons are not put on to button.
The Princes generous g!rth hardly per
mits any coat to be buttoned. All o.
which is an advantage. for as the tail
ors to His Royal Hfghness say:
er in summer, it is far out of the COM
mon and it permit a fancy waistcoat
to be shown to greater advantage.
Of course the old mid-time frock coat
is now gone in London. Within a week
there will not be one on view from Re
gent street to Piccadilly, save upon
superannuated clerks and wearers OF
cast-off clothes. All fashionable London
town is beseiging its tailors for exact
COMES of Wales new coat.
When the Prince began to get too
stout he used to wear gold link in
his frock coat fastened across the two
ton buttonholes. This kept the coat to-
retaer without forcing him to button
It acroes his bursting chest But even
with his seal Of approval this fashion
did not go It wouldn't work at all
With attenuated I2rtons Few Americans
riSked It and those that did were
laughed at II is feared that even the
annroval OF the Prince will not make
this coat popular in America
