President Hall, of Clark University, who distributed among high school pu- pills in different parts of the country a series of questions intended to draw out information concerning the extent to which the young people of to-day read the Bible, and concluded from the an- swers received that the Bible-reading habit is much less prevalent than it was generation ago, has made an- other test. He examined his own col lege boys, and says that there is now an amazing degree of ignorance of the Scriptures, especially of the Old Testa- ment. Which is all wrong. The Bible is still good book to read and remem- Der.

 The following is told by the Chinese minister at Washington. "There was a Chinese that had three dogs. When ne came home one evening he found them asleep on his couch of teakwood and marble. He whipped them and drove them forth. The next night, when he came home, the dogs were ly- ing on the floor. But he placed his hand on the couch and found it warm from their bodies. Therefore he gave them another whipping. The third night, returning earlier than usual, he found the dogs sitting before the couch blowing on it to cool it."

writing Chinese is taught by native.
By means of it women and children are
enabled, in a month, to read and to
write their own language in character.
A woman s paper has been started in
Picking. 1t is progressive and aggres-
sive as well. Rewards are promised to
those sending information on the fol-
lowing subjects:
Number of women in Picking who are
learning English or some other foreign
language.
Number and age of women in the
new shorthand schools.
Statistics as to concubines in the
families of officials and people of
means.
Slaves in families, their number and
treatment, etc.
Parents who can afford to educate
their sons properly realize the vital i'm
portance of training their daughters
also. 1t is needless to state what in
fiuence the new ideas have on the
Chinese women; but suffice it to say
that thousands of them are clamoring
for admission to schools and colleges
1T is our most earnest wish that all
young Chinese ladies, who are edu-
Gated abroad-especiaHy those in
America-will eventually return to
China, if possible, where their services
as teachers are so much needed, and
where they can do the most good for
their sisters, as well as for themselves

Four classes of membership are pro
posed: (1) Regular student members
i. e., graduates and non-graduates OF
colleges and universities In China OF

Islands Under the able and energetic
leadership of Messrs. A. NJ. Merrill and
F. W. Damon, we confidently hope that
it will be successfully and permanently

To summarize. then, the facts which
show that China is awakening from her
slumber of centuries, it is evident that
the Flowery Kingdom is animated by a
progressive spirit She has seen the
deficiency of her time hOnOred system
of mental culture and driven it out
with full force She has recognized
the proficiency of the modern instruc-
ton and ushered it in with open arms.
She is seriously realizing the physical,
intellectual and social rights of her
women. She is gradually changing her
form of caligraphing and adopting that
of the West. She has discovered that
the welfare of the nation is not to be
found in servile worship of idols. The
boycott, for example, has brought out
unity and national feeling hitherto I'M
known to her In spite of distance and
expense, she is multiplying the number
of young Chinese to be sent abroad for
learning the mechanical arts and enter
ing the professions. All this tells of
the new ideas seething in the minds of
the people, and especially their rulers.
If she. continues educating her people
at home and abroad, and keeps on
building ols-professional, mechan-
zeal, naval and military-her future
and integrity will be assured for, in the
words of Martin Luther: 'EThe pros
perity of a country depends, not on the
abundance of its revenue, nor on the
strength of it's fertilization, nor on the
beauty of it's public buildings, but it
consists in the number of it's cultivated
citizens, in its men of education, en-
lightenment and character. Here are
to be found its true interest, it's chief
strength and its real power.
