READY FOR THE DOCTOR.
After his breakfast a steaming hot lowell
is given him TO wash off his face and
beard. the latter of which is usually full of
fragments OF the feast. Then his coarse
blue cotton bib, exactly the same as We
put upon two-year-old children. is removed
and he is ready TO see his doctor.
Ii has a resident native physician who
always lives with him, DR.. Mai Hsin
Chen. known to many as Dir. George Mark.
This gentleman is q bright Cantonese,
about t~hirty-fve years of age. who has had
a full course OF Western scientific medicine
and who treats the viceroy upon the latest
scientific methods. For many years he has
had daily applications Of a milo electric
current TO his face. arms and hands, with
massage OF the fingers. DR.. Mai attends
TO this and all ordinary complaints, but if
the old gentleman gets a fever or any Sc
rious symptoms his American consulting
physician is called in also.
While the electric treatment is going on
his staff OF satellites and secretaries gath

than the house he used 10 live in here in
Picking.
At u:30 o'clock Ii usually gets what he
calls his breakfast, for he does not dignity
his earlier meal by that name. calling it
simply early dessert. Breakfast is a more
imposing meal. He leaves his sitting room
and goes into the outer, larger room and
joins the members of his official household,
limited always to eight, as the table has

Mt Tuskegee Was Built.
Denver Times.

Denver Times.
Booker T. Washington's work as an edu-
Gator of his people, as an author and as a
public speaker has attracted wide attention,
has made him a hero among his people and
gained for him the admiration Of his fellow
citizens. and if he were less well balanced
he might have been unable to carry his
honors gracefully. But he is modest and
unobtrusive, and in all respects a fine ex-
ample of the self-made man. He was born
at Halls Ford. Va, about 1858. He was
a slave until freed by the emancipation
proclamation and never knew who was his
father. He was named Booker Taliaferro,
probably because there were many promi-
nent people in the commonwealth by that
after he became free. He makes no denial
of these biographical points, and rather
likes to dwell upon them. He speaks of the
people of his race as negroes and not as
'colored people," and sets them a good ex-
ample for industry and ambition, coupled
with mOdesty.
Washington's life story reads like a rot
nance But there are few cheerful chap
ters in it until one reaches the story of the
young man. The child was buffeted about
in drudgery and want. AS the property of
the Maiden family he probably had more
comfort in the "nigger quarters than in

1t must not be overlooked that many un-
civilized people express age, position and
married or single state by the way they
dress their locks. After all, when one
comes to think of il the idea is just as
practical as the wearing Of a golden band
on one finger. The wedding ring is not al
ways in evidence here, for a lady is Oft
times gloved: and whilst some married men
wear the circlet in England and on the
continent, others do not; and again, many
bachelors sport the very ring that should
only be used TO proclaim the welded state.
But the Zulu woman is really more prac-
teal, for a first glance at her couture as
sures the observer whether she is maid or
wife. The cone-shaped erection is the legiti-
mate symbol of her state Of wlfehood, and,
indeed, cannot be legally worn till the mar
riage rites are duly completed. Save for
this all important cone the brides head IS
closely shaved, an assegai being used 10
perform this delicate operation. A mar
riageable Kaf3r youth is also TO be recog-
nized by the way he wears his hair. II Is
shorn 10 leave a ring round the scalp and
then literally smeared with ochre and fat.
When all the hair has been removed save
the woolly portion on the crown, which Is
trained in a circular form and about four
inches in diameter, a ring Of gum and
charcoal is firmly attached, and this serves
as a convenient pocket for the young man.
He is proud of this token OF manhood and
thrusts into it much OF the small mis-
cellanea which an Englishman slows away
in his trouser pockets.

The next morning, however, the plainly

Ii was in January and the young matron
felt sure the flowers were worth SIS, so
she said: Il should be glad TO pick out a

that" said the plainly dressed woman.
The flowers did not cost me anything.
There is a young florist down here who
occupies one of my buildings and he
thinks he will get on the right side OF me
by frequently sending me flowers. But
he will get left, for l am going TO raise
his rent next month" With that the
woman walked out, leaving the flowers
on the table. The young matron could
not understand the situation, but when
she found that the plainly dressed woman
was Mrs. Hetty Green she began to worry
ing about the young florist whose rent
was soon to be raised.
