ANSWERS FOR THE ANXIOUS.
Seme sapient Suggestions for the
EdincatiOn of Unenlightened
Inquirers.

Glorianna B., of Westport, writes. "a"
have a young gentleman caller who is al
ways trying. to kiss me. How shall / dis
suade him.?
You should dissuade him with a hatpin
or an ak, Glorianna, but as an all-around
anti-kiss argument there is nothing SO dis
suading and at the same time painless as a
large Bermuda onion, says the Baltimore
American. You should eat one or two or
three before the kissing bug flies around.

ADVICE TO WOMEN DOCTORS,
Chinese Minister Says They should
Go to the Orient and Learn
Medicine.

WI Ting Fang, the new Chinese min.
lister to the United States, is a veritable
genius. Besides being accomplished in
Chinese literature, and a statesman OF
rare ability, he is a linguist and a phil
osopher, says a Washington exchange.
He was the principal attraction at the
recent commencement of the Woman's
Medical college in Philadelphia, and, OF
course, was set down for a speech.
"Since l came to this country" he said,
~ have met women doctors, lawyers
and journalists, but until l received
the invitation to make this address il
had never occurred to me the women
had advanced so far as to have an in
stitution exclusively devoted to the
training of women for the medical pro-
fession.
~ am particularly interested in this
institution, because of the Chinese girl,
who, after studying here. returned to
her native land, where she has since
made a great success. in China it is
generally believed that there is one
sphere for women and another for men.
The world has acted upon this belief
for ages. 1 am glad hat women have
gained such a position in the medical
profession that they cannot be re-
moved.
"There are medical works in the Chi
nese language containing medical
knowledge gained from the experience
and practice of long ages. 1t is a great
pity that this contribution of knowl-
edge cannot be available to the whole
world because of the great difference
in language. The Chinese attach great
value to the practice of medicine. If
the good people of the European ma
| lions and of America had sent only med
| zeal missionaries to China, missionary
| troubles would happen rarely. If you
we're to ask my advice to-day, young
ladies', / should say with Horace Gree
ley: 60 west, young lady, stop no
on this side of the Pacific, but 60 un.
I'll you arrive in China. Go to China
if you find this country too crowded
in your profession. There is room
enough and work enough there for all.

Bathing without Shoulder Straps.

The rank and file on the Modder river
were a short time ago forbidden to battle,
and sentinels were posted on the banks to
look for surreptitisus swimmers. One OF the
sentinels caught sight OF a swimmer, who
persistently ignored his to sur.
render to arrest. At last the bather emerged
from the river; the furious sentinel ad-
vanced upon the dripping figure and claimed
a prisoner. "Confound you'll" was the re-
ply, cant you see I'm an icer?"-London
