How Their Instruments Differ From
Those In Use In This Country.
The magic lantern, Ike porcelain,
gunpowder and printing. may have
been an invention of the Chinese. For
more than twenty centuries it has been
a staple amusement in the Celestial
empire and has been developed into
many forms unknown to the occident.
The Middle Kingdom. which has been
well termed Topsy Turvy Land. uses
the magic lantern in just the opposite
manner from what we do, having the
light and picture behind the screen,
the same as in our parlor amusement
Of shadowgraphs. The commonest form
of tire magic Lantern in the extreme orr
emit Is a large box supported on a tn
pod or four legged table. The box is
about 4 feet wide by 2 high, and its
front is made of ground glass, oiled
silk or oiled white paper.
Over the box is light framework OF
bamboo and cloth, which reaches to the
ground and conceals the operator from
the audience. but leaves the glass ex-

and the sides are half open 10 permit
the introduction of small figures. This
arrangement gives four distinct classes
of instruments. With all four instru-
ments the exhibitions are given in the
streets, squares and smarket places.
They draw audiences ranging from five
TO thirty and give an entertainment of
from five to fifteen minutes in length.
Each spectator is supposed TO contrib
ute / cash. OF a twentieth of cent.
when the hat is passed around. Gener-
Gus or enthusiastic patrons frequently
give from 10 to 10 cash, so that the av-
erage performance nets the proprietor
about 2 cents. This seems ridiculous
to Americans, but in land where an
ablebodied man can be hired for cents
q day the owner of successful magic
lantern is looked upon as a very well
to do individual.
The little plays which are written
about the magic figures are as conven-
tional as our own immortal Punch and
Judy. The wicked tiger depicts the
career of a dissolute animal who from
killing pigs, dogs and buffaloes finally
eats beautiful maiden and is slain by
a Mongolisn chief in full armor on
horseback. The wicked wife" forms
compact with the devil, squanders
her husbands substance in riotous Hv-
ing and, in the last scene, hangs her
self in blaze of red fire, while the
evil one expresses wild joy in extraor-
binary oriental gesticulations. The

Finally, and more Immediately. there
is no reasonable doubt in the minds of
those who have actually read existing

and 1t has just announced that 1t has

fund for further propagation. Lei not
these millions deceive us. They may
represent, and oftentimes do represent
Methodism going wrong. For the mo-
ment Methodism justifies itself by its
statistics it bellies the fundamental pos
tulate Of John Wesley and has lost the
central inspiration. Rather let John
Wesley be justified by the latter day
clamor for justice and religious pro-
test against plutocracy, a~ristocracy and
social %pretension everywhere. John
Wesley today rebukes that prosperity

John Wesley finds his followers to-

that may be found, and those who work

most destructive of human happiness.
1t is the besetting sin of the race--self-
tshness. After the revelations before
the commission, the miners would nave
less sympathy today than they received
two months ago. Their cruelty to nom
union men makes every liberty-loving
American flush with indignation. The
coal barons. by the prices they have
charged, have been able to accumu-
late wealth and live in luxury at the
expense of the common people. The
public must have coal. and so the local
dealers raise the cry of coal famine, and
are able, under this false alarm, TO rob
the public. The human heart must be
changed by the power Of Jesus Christ
before difficulties such as have brought
the present suffering will be avoided.
Not socialism or craftsmanship or mere
morality. but the Christ spirit pervad-
ing human life is the remedy"

Sinai Temple: DR.. Emil G. Hirsch OF
Sinai Temple said that the causes for

that it is an insult to our intelligence
to say that charity Is the only remedy
for the present shameful situation" He
said: :
"The coal situation must for the
moment be met by appeals to philan-
thropy. But it is a distressing and
shameful condition for the American
nation to find itself in. Coal Is as
clearly an article Of necessity as is
wheat or any breadstuff. That this
staff Of life should be lowed to

brutal egotism Of capitalists and the
blind selfshness of labor driven to de-

imperfect legislation. cowardly politics
snd the Indifference of the beneficiaries
OF this system to every implication OF
Justice and social responsibility. Char
ity is a makeshift. 1t is an insult to

the only remedy for this shameful Sit

Mrs. Johanna Soderholm, Of Fergus
Falls, Mimi, fell and dislocated her
shoulder. She had q surgeon get 1t
back in place as soon as possible, but
1t was quite sore and panied her very
much. Her son mentioned that he had
seen Chamberlain's Pain Balm adver-
tised for sprains and soreness. and she
asked him to buy her a bottle Of 1t.
which he did. It quickly relieved her
and enabled her to sleep. which h had
not done for several days. The son
was so much pleased with the relief 1t
gave his mother that he has since
recommended 1t to many others. For
