NEATNEss OF THE CHINESE
Personal Habits Contrast Markedly
with Their Usual Sur
roundings.

Next time you are in Chinatown, no
tice the finger nails of the inhabitants
You will be surprised, possibly, to find
that they are generally as clean and
bright as though they had just come
from the manicure, says the New York
Sun.
As are his finger nails, so is the rest
of the Chinaman's body. 1t is one OF
the queer contradictions about this con
Trajectory people that although their
houses are usually surrounded by a
fringe of dirt, and although they don't
take to modern sanitation bit, they
are very cleanly in their personal hab-
it's.
The daily bath is an institution. A
bathtub is not necessary. Your China
man manages very well with few
cupfuls of water and a washrag.
He completes his toilet by polishing
his long nails, and every day or SC
he visits the barber, who shaves not
only the scanty hair on his face, but
also his head and the inside of his
ears, If he can afford it the Chinaman
puts on clean blouse every day OF
two. 1t is no accident that these peo-
pie are a nation of laundrymen. II
comes to them naturally.
Last summer a bunch OF university
students took a summer job on a big
California ranch. The regular hands

Indians Kill Whales with Lances.

off Flattery by six canoeloads Of Neah

reached the Indians they were killing
the monster with lances. Another tug.

chase, which was a long one. Mem.

During the past year more than 20
German families from the north and
west have settled near Meherria, Va,
and are revolutionizing farming there
about. They have sown grass and
grain, are raising cattle and dairy stock,
and are making money They live eco
nomically and work, losing little or no
time in going to stores and shops to talk
and idle, and when it is too bad for out
door work they manage to have some
thing to attend to in the barns and
stables, making repairs, fixing harness
and wagons and plows and implements.
They plant small crops, stick to their
work, raise fruit trees and vineyards,
have many bees and are great milk and
butter makers. Poultry. too, is in their
line, and nearly all the time they have
something to sell to the markets. They
know the secret of keeping thir stock of
produce fresh. are neat and tasteful in
the handling OF it, and get good prices
