New Foods to Revolutionize China.

CHICAGO, May 24.-Prince Pu Lun
denies that he will import American
officers for the Chinese army, but he
smilingly AYERS he means to introduce
breakfast foods to his uncle, the En-
DerOr of China.
He believes the foods will tempt the
faded appetites of the golden youth OF
the Picking court and declares thae
wheat scales and oaken flakes Will soon
rival birds nests and sharks fins IN

He anticipates that the universal
adoption of breakfast foods by ina
Chinese people will necessitate feVo-
luton in table manners which may
precede the revolution in arms ana

wants the "open door is now ao'o~

An Exceptional Opportunity

An exceptional opportunity will be
afforded Superior people to see one
of the finest collections OF paintings
of the greatest masters, ancient aud
modern, that has ever come to the
head of the lakes at the Blaine annex,
Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and
Saturday OF next week. The exhibit
il the Horace X. Turner travelling
picture exhibit and consists OF 800
framed pictures.
The pictures are by such masters M
Jean Francois Millet. What Robert
Burns had done for Scotch peasant
songs and what our own Walt Whit
man has done for nature poetry, Jean
Francois Millet did for rustic French
art The masterpiece of this painter,
"The Cleaners" will be seen III the
collection az will also "rhe Shepherd
ess." "The Angelus' by the same
paintef will also be seen by in the
exhibit. This picture was sold for
$4,000, the largest sum ever paid
for single canvas.
The Rembrant collection IL especi-
ally fine and numbers the painter
best known productions. "The Night
Watch" considered HIS greatest work

sides many other loss famous but mor,
ito,ius paintings.
A large number of the creations OF

landscape painter, will be seen at
their best. "The Last Clean" ''Tho
Rising Storm" "Medheld Meadows, y

Morning." and "summer Silence are
included In the collection.

talking about vibrations" said an
organist, reminds me Of most pc
culiar fact In regard to the acoustic
properties of st. James church here in
Philadelphia. Before the new organ
was installed there was one spot In the
rear of the church where the sound
waves came together in such manner
that n person sitting there could hard
ly hear u sound while the organ was
being played. The explanation Is quite
simple. 1t seems that at this very spot
the waves vibrating from each side OF
the church came together at uneven
Intervals, forming break in the wave
series and neutraliZing the sound en-
ttrely. The new organ was placed 50
