The Korean Women Are the HOmeli-

| think the assertion may safely be
made that the women of Korea are
the most unattractive in the world.
One of my chief occupations during my
stay in the little Hermit Kingdom has
been making a diligent search for a
passably pretty face, have failed to
find one. 1t is not that they haven't
pretty eyes. They have-eyes Of soft
est brown and gentlest expression. 1t
is not that their features are coarse or
irregular, for, while this may be true
of many, it is not by any means true
of all, and l have caught glimpses Of
as delicately nodded features at Seoul
as in any other part Of the world.
But the Korean woman Is just ugly.
She may have fine eyes, she may have
u pretty little nose and mouth and 9th
err features that in themselves are not
at all unattractive, but as she is put
together and as her mental life has
made her she is ugly.

The term humble pie originally car
ried no opprobrium with it. 1t was 4
pie made out of the "humbles" or
''numbles," from the Norman French
"nombrils" e., the entrails of deer
To this day 1t Is highly esteemed In
Scotland and In northern parts of Eng
land. SO late as the time Of Pepys
tumble pie" was served as part of the
menu of gentleman's table on an ex-
traordinary occasion. Some writers
derive the contumelious use of the
phrase ITO eat humble pie" from an al
legged custom of serving umble pie be-
low the salt, or at the second table.
But this is not supported by authority.
1t more probably came into use simply
through the similarity of sound, there
being no similarity of meaning what
ever between the noun umbles or num-
bles and the adjective humble.

has capacity fol 800 tons Of grain a

the most sereiceable boats that was
ever operated on the upper Columbia

The Mountain Gem has been used
by the Open River association since

association we're enthusiastic as to
how much wheat they expected ber
to haul to the portage road this year.
The only other craft they have is the

cablegram from Moscow last night
says: The greatest CONSERVATION was
caused here by the news of the dissolution

will precipitate revolutionary outbursts
throughout Russia. Its effect on the
peasantry Is especially dreaded. 1t is feared
now that under the spur of the proletariat
organizations, which probably will order a
general strike, they will Immediately begin
universal jacquerie.
At meeting of more than four hundred
delegates of proletartat organizations Fri
day final preparations for general strike
were perfected The council of workmen's
deputies elected to act with the council In
St Petersburg and the group OF toll Of
parliament passed resolution that IL the
government dispersed parliament and used
repression to support a mass movement OF
peasants and a general strike in all in
dustries and on the railroad and telegraph
lines In Russia.
Branch organizations were notified to
await the signal by telegraph In order that
there may be no chance for fiasco. The
object OF the strike Is based on the demand
for universal suffrage, which the leaders de-
clare should decide the future form OF

strike in force gradually and peacefully
