PROVERBS OF THE CHINESE.
Examples OF Celestial Wisdom as 1t
II Expressed in Brief
Language.

|, The barest sketch of Chinese litera-
ture would hardly be complete with
out some illusions to the proverbs
and maxims, says DIR. Giles in his
History of Chinese Literature" pub
ished by the Appletons.
Chinese children are made to learn
these by heart, and ordinary grown
up Cinnamon may be almost said to
think in proverbs. There can be no
doubt that to the foreigner large
store of proverbs, committed to
memory and judiciously introduced,
are a great aid to successful CONVEX
sation. These are a few taken from
the inexhaustible supply, omitting to
a great extent such as find ready
equivalent in English.
Deal with the faults of others as
gently as with your own.
By many words wit is exhausted.
If you bow at all, bow low.
If you take an OK, you must give a
horse.
A man thinks he knows, but a wom-
| an knows better.
Words whispered on earth sound
like thunder in heaven.
IF fortune smiles-who doesn't? If
fortune doesn't-who does?
Moneyed men are always listened
| to.
Nature is better than a middling
doctor.
Stay at home and reverence your
parents; why travel afar to worship
| the gods?
A bottle-nosed man may be tee
totaler, but no one will think so.
| It is easier to catch a tiger than to
ask a favor.
With money you can move the

man.

It was either wedged in the narrow

One morning man came to me
with letter written on stamped pa

clergyman of my church in Massachu-

sThe Lovers of Cheerful Giver," in
Ladies' Home Journal. His story,
told in embarrassment, was that he
had run away from home. According
to the letter his aged mother was dy-
ing with grief, and the appeal of the
rector was for the man to come back
at once. The minister's check for
eight dollars, drawn on bank. in this
same town, was inclosed with which to
pay car fare. He was distressed and
was anxious to go, but the difficulty
was he had been in New York only
five days, knew no one, and could not
be identified at the bank. Would I
cash the check? I told him to come

returned he was arrested, and in his
pocket a neatly kept memorandum
book was found containing the name
of nearly every clergyman in Chicago,
Cincinnati, Cleveland, Pittsburgh and
Philadelphia. This had been his route.
On each page of his book there were
four columns headed: "Name, Date,

were such entries as: Rev. R,
