THE STUDY OF CHINEsR.]
Advocated by United States Consulas
Agent In the Interests OF

Mr.. Charles Neuer, United States
consular agent at Gera, in an official
communication to the state depart
ment advocates the study of the Chi
nese language as a means OF extending
American trade in the Chinese empire,
says the Washington Star. "While
China is considered the land of prom

tails of a recent interview with lin
guist who has given special attention
to this subject. It is well understood
that in order to enter into perman-
ent commercial relations with for
eign country it is indispensable to
know its language. When Russian in
dustries began to develop the Germans
recognized that in order to engage in
profitable trade in that country it was
necessary to learn Russian, and there

many. 49, ~ - -
1.-The Chinese language is ideograph-
&c. It conveys the idea and not the
word for the thing, as the figure - yep
resents the idea and not the word. The
Chinese have invented more than 49,
600 marks for their writing. In the
opinion Of my informant it will require
only about 5000 marks for mercantile
correspondence, and it will be easier
to learn them than the words Of an
ordinary foreign language.
RUSSIAN is more difficult for Amer
leans than Chinese. It takes much
longer to learn the spoken language,
because of the variety of dialects; but
any one who can learn enough of the
writings to answer ordinary purposes
In a few months and have his knowl-
edge perfected by linguist within
about year. An exact instruction in
one Of the Chinese languages can only
be given by Chinaman.
This method has been adopted in
Germany. Besides the professor for
the theory Of language, there are four
Chinese linguists in the Oriental sem
mary of Berlin teaching the busine esq
style and the language of Picking,
Shanghai and Canton. It is not intend
ed to fit pupils for the diplomatic sery-
$ics. but for commercial work." $3.50.

HOW TO PRESERVE YOUTH.
Plenty OF Pure Wats1. F1>ah Fr~aH.

Flesh food, especially old beef or
mutton, carries within it all the ele-

rived from q meat diet and are infinite
II superior from Q humanitarian
standpoint. Fruit and nuts form an
ideal meal. Fruits and vegetables are
valuable factors in retarding age, on
account of the large amount of water
they contain. AS years increase, the
proportion of solid constituents in the
body il greater than the fluids. This
tends to produce Stiffness and dryness.
Plenty OF pure water should be taken
daily to retard the calcareous deposits
and to wash from the system all waste
matter. Distilled water is particularly
useful for this purpose, az it is q nat
ural solvent Of the earthly salts which
produce Justification. Water external

ing off Of waste particles, il one of the
best agents In holding time at bay,

When your system is cleansed from i'm

it will be time to attend to your face.
While constipation exists, while effete

An Artistic SIip.lJp.

The old farmer could raise excellent
produce, but he had almost no school

resort TO novel scheme to take his
orders Instead of writing he would
draw a picture of the vegetable or
fruit ordered and beside it he would
put figure Genoting the number of
quarts pounds, etc, of the thing de-
sired. lnis scheme worked very well,
and the good housewives were willing
TO overlook some mistakes, as the
farmers produce was much above the
ordinary marke; stuff But one good
woman was very much mystifled one
day when the old man came in lug

not order that. John" she said.

said, earnestly, for drew it in my

OF potatoes?" and the old farmer
grinned shamefacedly while the good
housewife went off into peals of

A Metropolitan Tragedy.

There was tragedy in his eyes. You
see he was very much in love, was
poor, but proud.
He stood facing the girl, his face set
in the lines of blank despair.
She looked at him calmly. There
was milo regret in her expression
nothing more.
you promised me faithfully" he
said. Not alone in his words but in
the intensity of his voice she could
read a bitter reproach.
Il am sorry she said simply. 81
did not know that you really cared so
much. If you would only wait-if
you would only give me little more
time"
81 have been waiting longer than
most men could bear. My trust in
you was never shaken before. Now,
when my hopes have been raised to
their highest pitch"
But lest the reader misunderstood
we will explain that the man was not
in love with. the girl to whom he was
talking. She is agent for a laundry
and has promised that his laundry
would be done that afternoon. Her
promise is unfulfilled and the man
will not be able to call on The Girl
with whom he is in love.
Sadly he leaves the office Of the
laundry lingering the two dimes which
will just pay for a telegram to The
Girl, saying that he is i'll.
