CHINESE WASTE PAPER,
Every Scrap with N Printed ChRrac-
ter Up0n IL IL Sacred.


ter Upon IL Is Sacred.
You will never find upon the street
or in the rubbish heap scrap OF pa
per with Chinese characters written
or printed upon it. An Intelligent
Chinaman. questioned as to the rea-
son, explained the matter in this way:
Mclean man never tears Up and
flows in stleet his Bible or hymnbook.
Chinee lifting all same to Chinaman as
Mclean mans Bible"
Then be still further elucidated the
mystery by leading the way to the cell
lar Of Race street house, in which,
piled up before a gigantic furnace,
were bundles of paper and sacks Of let
tiers and newspapers printed in Chi
nese heroelyphics.
Interpreted into plain English the old
Chinamau's story was that the orien-
tails regarded the written character
as so sacred That this furnace was es.
pecially set apart, after being blessed
by the priests, for tie inclneration OF
all Chinese letters and documents.
SO sacred indeed was the Chinese
writing regarded by the orientals that
the most compromising letters Of the
highbiLders and the private CORE,
spondence Of families were left with
confidence in the care Of the furnace
attendant, 1t being perfectly well
known that Le would not risk his i'm
mortal soul 10y committing the deadly
u
mitted TO his care to be given TO the
flames
Nor does the oriental regard the Chi
nese writing as safe from the hands of
the inhdel even when every scrap OF it
has been reduced to ashes. After the
paper has been burned the ashes are
carefully collected, and when enough
has accumulated to make n load they
are shipped Oh board a boat belonging
to the Chinese Merchants company.
