CHINA IS WEAK BUT PROUD.

''Agaa, when a respectable China
man wsse walking along a public road
a foreign soldier came up and pulled
him by the queue, which he called
pigtail-I wonder if he calls his Sis
ter'S queue a pigtail--and when
Chinese lady was walking peacefully
along the street a sailor stopped her
and examined her bound feet. The
Chinese are not likely TO forget such
discourteous treatment, especially
when it is repeated over and over
again. Although cur country may
not yet be in a position to strike back
like the Japanese hit the Russian
bear, we cannot always be insulted.
Foreign ministers may make fools Of
the ignorant Manchu princes and do
what they like with the government,
but they certainly cannot stop the
voice that speaks for justice. Even if
the government should silence the
papers it cannot force US to eat Ameri-

if we do not want them"
When the boycott was proclaimed
only one Chinese official took a stand
against it. The Viceroy OF Chilli.

had the foresight to see that such a
measure might lead to grave conse-
ouences, and declared that no boycott
could be put into effect in his terri
tory. He at once appealed to the
Empress Dowager to squelch the
whole matter and she was at first dis
posed to heed his advice. 1t is said
she had her edict prepared. when
stronger influences interviewed and she
allowed the boycott to proceed.

HAVE YOU MATING

If you have used it for any length
Of time you no doubt feel that mat
sing is not exactly the eleanliest or

air often makes the odor of mating
unpleasant. And mating is so widely
used that to have it on your floors
makes them look common. From an
Eastern manufacturer we have secured
a substitute for mating. 1t does not
cost much more to put down than mat

COastwise Canals.

In these days of canal construction
1t Is well to recall the projects of coast
wise canals which have been urged
within the last fifty years. The first
OF these was a canal across the gulf
coast of Texas and across southern
Louisiana to the Mississippi This was
abandoned on account Of the civil war,
but the federal government instituted
q survey in 1880 and estimated that
the cost Of canal from the MISSISSIPPI
p1 to the Rio Grande would be about
$S,OOO,OOO. This canal would open ur
vast areas not now accessible for pro
ductlVe cultivation, and the scheme is
again under consideration. Arguments
are also revived for. an inland water
way along the Virginia and Carolina
coast past Cape Hatteras.
Mexico will soon complete coast
wise canal between Tampico and Tux

into Vera Cruz on the south and north.
ward to the Rio Grande. With the
Mexican canal connecting with the
Texas system it would be possible tc
run light draft steamers from Pitts:

and open to commerce the rice, sugar
and oil regions Of the southwest.

CHAPTER III.
THE only stage passenger besides
Miss Carmichael was a fat lady.
ErOu time to, time the stage

THE only stage passenger besides
Miss Carmichael was fat lady.
From time to time. the stage
driver invoked his team in
cabalistic words, and each time the
horses toiled forward with fresh en-
ergy, but progress became a mockery
IN that ocean of space. Their driving
seemed as futile as the sport Of children
who crack a whip and play at stage
coach with couple Of chairs. The
mountains still Knocked in the distance.
A fat, unbroken sweep Of country,
q tangle Of struggling sagebrush, a
glimpse of foothills in the distance was
the outlook mile after mile The day
grew pitilessly hot. Clouds of aka
line dust swept aimlessly over the des-
crt or whirled into spirals till lost in
space. From horizon to horizon the
sky was one cloudless span of blue
that paled as it dipped earthward.
Mary Carmichael dozed and wakened,
but the prospect was always the same
the red stage crawling over the will
derness, making no evident progress,
and always the sun, the sagebrush and
the silence. 49,.
1t was all SO overwhelmingly differ
ent from the peaceful atmosphere Of
things at home-the mellow Virginia
country, with it's winding, red roads,
wealth Of woodland and it's grave old
houses that We're the more haughtily
aloof for the poverty that gnawed at
their vitals. This wilderness was so
gaunt, so parched; she closed her eyes
and thought of a bit of landscape at
home-a young forest of silver beeches
growing straight and fine as the
threads on loom, and through the
gray perspective of their satin smooth
trunks you caught the white CLEAN of
fairy cascade as it tumbled over the
moss grown stones to the brook be-
low. 1t was like a bit from Jap
anese garden in its delicate artificial
ity. re-.
And harder to leave than these cher
ished bits of landscape had been the
OLD house Runnymede, that always
seemed doing in the peaceful coma
tose Of senility. It was beyond the
worry Of debt; the succession of mort
cages that Slapped its vitality and
wrote anxious lines on the faces Of
Aunt Adelaide and Aunt Martha was
nothing to the old house. Had it not
sheltered Carmichaels for over cen
tury? It had faith in the name. But
Mary could never remember when the
need Of money to pay the mortgage
had not invaded the gentle routine Of
their home life.
but hardest of all to leave had been
Archie, best and most promising Of
young brothers Archie, who had come
out, ahead Of his class in the high
school, all ready to go to the univer-

Don't Borrow Trouble.

possibly borrow, is trouble. When

sit down and brood over your symp-
