The Magic Fish.

Cut large fish out OF very stout
writing paper.
In the center Of It cut Il small round
hole, and from this hole cut narrow
slit extending straight out TO the tall.
Put a few drops Of oil In the round
hole ana then quickly but carefully lay
the fish fiat on the water, making sure
that no water reaches the upper sur
facc of the fish.
The fish will then be seen to move
slowly along through the water, al
though it has not received the slightest
push.
The explanation IS that the oil which
you have dropped into the little round
hole tries to expand.
As the paper does not absorb it quick.
ly It starts to spread along the narrow
slit that you have cut in the Iish from
the hole TO the tail And In doing this
II pushes the fish forward.
Try this experiment, boys and girls.

TWO REFORMS IN CHINA.
Barbarous Punishments and Use Of
Torture in Court Are
Abolished

The state department at Washington
lately received notice OF two important
reforms made by the Chinese govern
saeas.
The reforms were the result of the la
bors Of commission on the revision
OF the criminal code, OF which Wu-Ting-
fang, former Chinese minister to the
United States, was the head. The first
edict abollshes cruel forms of punish
ment, and the second ends the use OF
torture In the courts.
After pointing out the fact that the
present system OF administering justice
is not in harmony with the original in
tention or the imperial house, the first
edict reads.
Now that the laws are being revised,
we decree that hencefofth the seyerest
form Of punishment for capital offenses
shall be immediate decapitatlon, The
three forms of punishment known as
ACKNOWLEDGMENT exposure Of the heal
and beheading the corpse are hereby
abolished forever. The sentences of dis
memberment and exposure of the head,
provided for In the present laws, are
hereby changed to immediate decapita-
ton. Crimes to be punished by imme-
date decapitation shall be punished by
