WAGES IN FoRMosA.
The Highest Pay for Skilled Labor
 Does Not Come Up to One Dollar Day.

The people of Formosa have just become up to date enough to have a railroad of their own, and a de- tailed report of it's construction has been forwarded to the stockholders. many of whom are Frenchmen and Englishmen, says a London paper. The rails are English; the loccmo- tiyes are English and American; the bridge works and girders are Ameri- can, and the rolling stock is native built on American trucks. The labor employed was Formosan and Japan ese, but the work was done under the direction of French, English and American engineers. The rate of wages paid per day to the machinists and laborers furnish an interesting contrast between the value put upon work in the occident and orient. The Jap, on an average received one-third more than the Formosan, and the day was of ten hours. Here is the sched. ule of the highest rates paid: Carr penters, 62 cents; sawyers, GA cents; masons and plasterers, 80 cents; roofers, 6S cents; coolies, 37 cents; workmen on scaffolding, 52 cents; navvies, AT cents; painters, 6S cents; ,blacksmiths, 79 cents.

USE OF FALSE TEETH.
The Enormous and Ever Increasing Output of Manufacturers in the
 United States.

Probably not less than 100000 arti- ficial teeth are manufactured in this country each year, and still the out put goes on increasing, states the New York Times. Never before was such great care manifested for teeth as has been exhibited during the past five years. In this respect Americans lead the world, not even the fastidious French excelling the people of the United States in their solicitude for the preservation of natural teeth and in their application of the arts of den tai science when substitutes have to be provided for natures molars.
 Englishmen are notoriously care less about their teeth, although in late years great progress has been made in this matter.
 A prominent dentist of New York declares that nearly every patient with a mouthful of decayed teeth is . foreigner. "They let things drift" he says, "and come only when pain drives them here. Americans, and especial ly southerners, hasten to their dentist immediately they detect even the slightest signs of coming trouble, and the result is that there are by far more "sayed" teeth in this country than in any other. Enelishmen and Irishmen arc remarkably apathetic about their molars, and will go about for years with hopelessly decayed Eeeth"

KNOWLEDGE WAS POWER.
How Familiarity with the Chinese Language Made a Woman
 Countess.

One of the unmarried women in dip lomatic circles at Washington is Countess Marguerite Cassini, the ac- complished niece of the Russian am- bassador, who. is a countess in her own right, not by heredity, but by spe- cial grace of the czar, and a curious story is told of the manner in which she won her title. It was when Count Cassini had his fateful conference with Lii Hung Chang at Picking, long before the Boxer trouble. The counts inter- preter was away, for Lis call was un- expected, and as the Chinese states man could not speak Russian and the Russian diplomat did not understand Chinese the conference came to a deadlock. The counts niece, who had picked up something of the language, stepped into the breach and the affair was arranged to the satisfaction of both parties. The Chinese empress loaded her with presents, the czar's government made note of the service performed, and when there was a question couple of years ago of the young 1ady's precedence at Washing ton, where the count was then ambas- sador, the czar himself counfounded her rivals by making her countess. This was something like rapid promo tion for the lady.

THE SECRET OF POPULARITY
Lies in the Charm of ConversatiOnaa Ability and Pleasing Per-
 .f sohaIbty.

The unselfish person is welcome in all sorts of society. Such one finds it is necessary to lay down his own tastes and desires, and to enter with whole-heartedness into the interests of others. A reserved. taciturn per- son is not n pleasant companion, though certain kind of reserve is de- sirable. Often we see persons who are popular everywhere and we wonder at it. for we know them to be of a shall low nature; we cannot see why they are interesting. If we observe them closely, we notice sparkle and glow often about them which constitutes the charm of their personal manner. Persons with tact, and an ability to make themselves agreeable to all sorts and conditions of people. are always popular, says the Housekeeper. They have an abundance of small talk at their command. for no one appreciates pro- fundity in general conversation. nor wants discourses of the platform. If one wants to listen to lengthy de- Ecription of another's views. ne will seek the lecture room. The charm of converse ton lies in the art of saying apt. airy nothings, in pleasing man. ner. Few stop to consider the intel- lectual ability of their associates; what appears On the surface interests them.
 The habitually silent person may be profound. or he may not be. in either case he is usually selfish. for few will find him companionable, and most will find his silence oppressive. He who seldom volunteers remark is not trying to please, nor is he when he an- swers others spirited conversation in monosylla bies. as if he begrudged the effort it cost him to answer. Self absorbed people are not unse,fish enough to take the trouble to be agree able and entertaining Ore may re. spect the wisdom that such one may have stored away in his brain. or he may question the fact that he hides his light under | brshel, but he will not seek hIs companionship with the same energy that he does that of the person who enters into his thoughts and feelings. and sympathizes with bis desires and achievements, not perhaps because they are corgenial, bur be- cause he has fellow feeltng which makes him interested ih that winch is of no interest to him except that 1t is of interest to another.

 In five years the number of pa- tients registered in the university hospital, University of Michigan, has increased nearly GOO. During tine year ending June 30, 1898, there were 1,715 patients registered, and during the year ending June 30. 1902. there were 2,307 registered. In the same time the average number registered increased from 62.3D to 1925.
 A unique mems club has recently been organized at La Grange, Ore, which will without doubt be produc- tive of great amount of good. Ono of the members of the club has do- mated Q piece of ground which each member agrees to help to cultivate. A days work is counted as being worth $1.5O. Those who find that they are not able to fulfill the pledge of so many days work upon the farm, pay some one else to take their place. The profits of this venture are to be devoted to the Lords work in various directions. In addition to this, there are to be club meetings, with addresses from men on various helpful topics.
