Chlna.s Diplomatic Minister.

Minister WI is diplomat of diplo-
mats. All through the troublous times
Of the hostilities in China last sum-
mer and fall, and during the negotia-
tons leading up to the signing of the
note at Pelin, Minister WI has re-
NAMED on terms of close amity with
the government of the United States
On election day he went out to near
by Maryland town and studied at close
range the practical exercise of Ameri-
can suffrage. He has been more in de-
mand than any other member of the
diplomatic corps for addresses at con-
ventions and banquets and he has filled
as many of these engagements as pos
sible. His son goes about Washington
in the uniform of High School cadet.
A few days ago this wise policy of the
representative of China reached CHI
max when the younger WI shouldered
his carbine and marched in the ranks
of the cadets under the stars and
stripes, celebrating the centennial of
the capital city. In all of his acts
Minister WI has emphasized the desire
of his government to be next with the
United States.

CHAPTER x

About IL O'Clock that same night
Doctor brakes night bell pealed nois-
lily, to be answered almost Immediate
ly by the Doctors head thrust out OF
an upper window.
What's up?" he inquired with char
acteristic briefness.
Mrs. Eddy's baby, sir-fts; don't
think you'll find it alive when you get
there" replied the messenger with a
curtness that rivaled the Doctors.
Mrs. Eddy Of Westbourne?"
Eyes. sir. She caught me as was
passing, and begged me very particu-
larly to tell you"
IAN right, I'll be off in ten min
utes," said the Doctor, closing the
window, not in the very best Of tenn
pers. He had been up for three nights
running, with the result that his
groom had violent chill, and must
not, in common humanity, be dis
turbed.
Il must put my own horse into the
dog-cart and drive myself, unless, .,
thought the Doctor, with rather a grim
smile, II wake up that worthless dog
who is asleep on my surgery sofa. It
would do him no end of good to drive
five miles out in the night air. He
shall help me to harness the horse.
and can hold him for me at the other
end; and on the road I'll talk to him
and let him hear piece Of my mind"

LOVE OF JEWELS.
In All Ages Women Have Been Dazzled
by Rich Gems

In All Ages Women Have Been Dazzled
by Rich Gems.
In all countries and in all agess wom-
en- seem to have inherited a love for
precious stones, and it is no wonder
that these gems are popularity sup
posed to exercise some subtle magnet
ism that influences their natures.
This inherent PASSION may account IN
a measure for the Yseent craze for some
mascotic jewaGpol ssaHjfessf medieval
pie certain gems appear to WELD a po-
tent influence. Who has not listened
to weird tales Of some heirloom tails
IN, which, when lost or stolen, pre-
odged the ruin of noble house? A
person with vivid Imagination might
even believe in the theory of the Pytha-
goreans, who formulated the doctrine
that inanimate things are endowed
with souls. Certain evolutionists OF
today trace the origin of man back to
stones, asserting that in their adaman-
tine bosoms they contain the all-per-
vading essence of spirit, and that the
spark emitted from their crystalline
hearts is the revelation of the i'm
prlsoned soul within. From time i'm
memorial jewels have served as pro-
pltiatory offerings at holy shrines. as
token of amity from one crowned head
to another, as mystic messengers OF
affection between distant friends, as
pledges of constancy exchanged be-
tween plighted lovers. Men have ~bleu
and died, kingdoms have crumbled
families have been rent asunder, hus-
band and wife parted over the disputed
possession of some coveted jewel. Per-
haps poor Marie Antoinette, of ILL
starred memory, might have kept her
pretty head upon her shoulders had 1t
not been for the unfortunate affair OF
the diamond necklace Women in all
ages have succumbed to the temptation
of gems. Faust bartered his soul for
the love of woman; Marguerite sold
hers for gem-starred bauble.-Chica-
go Chronicle

Picked by the Cyclones.

You no doubt have heard Of cyclones
blowing feathers off chickens or pos
sibly you may have witnessed the on
GRAFTON, but whether You have or not
1t is fact that cyclones are sometimes
chicken pickers, as we'll as the pickers
of other things. Well, an ingenious
German, with a devastating cyclone
for his model, has invented a machine
that creates cyclones to order, while
you wait, for chicken picking purpos-
es. His cyclones are inconsiderable in
size, but very intense in their field of
action, which is large enough to en-
brace Shanghai rooster. You take
the rooster or other fowl to him, he
touches a button, and before you can
wink twice every feather is off the
bird. Several cross currents of air
from electric fans, turning at the rate
of 5000 revolutions minute, do the
work

Furniture of Silver and Gold.

There are many rooms in the world
furnished in silver. Aside from crown
ed heads, Mrs. Mackay is probably the
only person who possesses set of
silver furniture. In her London house
she has reception room in which the
chairs, tables. etc., are of solid silver.
In Windsor Castle is a set of furniture
made of silver which was presented to
Charles H. by the city of London, and
the Shah of Persia has silver set of
furniture in one of his reception rooms.
The Sultan of Turkey, who is so heav-
lily in debt. has not only set Of sill
yer furniture. but dining table of
the same precious metal. The only
other person who is known to have
set Of silver furniture is the Car of
Russia, who has one room in the Krem-
lin in Moscow filled with silver and
gold furniture.-New York Press.

ground, until at christs behest. they

until at Christ>s behest. they
shall roll away the. stone.
So also Christ is above all in hea-
ven. The Bible distinctly says that
Christ is the chief theme of the celes-
tial Inscription, all the thrones facing his
throne, all the palms waved before his
face, all the crowns down at his feet.
Cherubim to cherubim, seraphim to
seraphim, redeemed spirit to redeemed
spirit shall recite the Savior's earthly
sacrifice.
The Glories of Heaven.
Stand on some high hill of heaven,
and in all the radiant sweep the most |
glorious object will be Jesus. Myriads
gazing on the scars of his suffering.
In silence first, afterward breaking
forth into reclamation. The martyrs,
all the purer for the fame through
which they passed, WILL say, This is
Jesus, for whom we died" The
apostles, all the happier for the ship
wreck and the scourging through which
| they went, will say. This is the
| Jesus whom we preached at Corinth
and in Cappadocia and Antioch and
at Jerusalem" Little children clad in
\ white will say, This is the Jesus who
| took us in his arms and blessed us
\ and when the storms of the world were
| too cold and loud brought us into this
| beautiful place. The multitudes Of
\ the bereft will say, This Is the Jesus
who comforted us when our heart
| broke" Many who had wandered
| Off cd irfo
vagabondism, but were saved by grace,
will say: This is Jesus who pardoned
us. We were lost on the mountains,
and he brought us home. We were
II guilty, and he made us white as snow.
l Mercy boundless, grace unparalleled.
4 And then, after each one has recited
l his peculiar deliverances and peculiar
1 mercies, recited them as by solo, all
the voices will come together in q
great chorus which shall make the
arches re-echo with the eternal rever-
beration of gladness and peace and
triumph.
II Edward I was so anxious to go tt
the Holy Land that when he was about
to expire he bequeathed 100000 tc
have his heart after his decease taken
and deposited in the Holy Land, and
his request was complied with. But
there are hundreds today whose hearts
are already in the holy land Of heaven
Where your treasures are, there are

Owing to the alleged troubles in Rus
STA the mode of life of its ruler, Mich
olas ii will be scanned with interest.
The car rises at $50 o'clock. His tot
let lasts until nearly 9. Then he sits
down at his writing table to discharge
particularly important matters OF state
which do not admit of delay. From 10
to II there is short pause for light
lunch. From II to / o'clock the cars
time is devoted to work. He signs
documents, studies bills and examines
the reports of his ministers and COVER
nors, to which he often adds numerous
marginal remarks His majesty drinks
meanwhile several glasses of tea, never
taking wine He eats caviare sand
wich.
From to D. M is devoted to the
joys and sorrows of the domestic
hearth. Occasionally the aide-de-camp
on duty is summoned and the car de-
| sires to hear anything new or interest
ing in the papers. His majesty is a
very Industrious reader of the news
papers.
From p. m the car works again.
sometimes only to 6, but often till
o'clock, when his principal meal is par
taken of. The rest OIL the evening Till
9:3O-but till 10 should the eX-empress
be presents spent with his family
After this he retires to his study.
Principally at midnight he goes to bed
Court banquets and festivities inter
fere now and then with the routine OF
his daily life but the minister Of the
imperial house tries as much as posi-
bic to keep the cars working hours
uninterrupted.
Officials in attendance on the car
are very we'll satisfied with his state of
health. The epileptic seizure which for
merly REQUIRED every four or six weeks
have not returned since his illness in
the Crimea His face has become
round and full and he has healthy
color. His frequent headaches have
also disappeared.
The ruler of Russia is an admirable
man, and we must take these an
nouncements on faith. His attempt
, to inaugurate a worlds peace speaks
eloquently of the nobleness of his soul
/. His scheme for the completion of thu
d Siberian railway and for other vas
r projects tell of his sincere interest il
d the welfare of his country. 1t seem
J, cruel that his life should be menaced
