earliest civilization on the American
continent The best of them are al
most entirely ignorant OF who the

looked and lived and why they have
been 50 entirely obliterated from the
face Of the earth.
The reason for this ignorance is found
in the fact that no satisfactory remains
Of the dead Aztecs have been found

they probably buried household effects

UNJUSTLY
DISCHARGED

The Shamokin fire department is the
victim of a grave indignity at the
hands of petty mine bosses.
During the heighth of the recent fire
at that place the brave members of the
Shamokin fire companise responded TO
the call and worked heroically all
night to conquer the flames which they
succeeded in doing at the risk of their
own lives.
The following morning the worn out
fremen in some instances failed 10 90

mines. They were completely tagged
out from their exertions and exposure

fore.
When they did go to work the fol
lowing day in many instances the fire
men were discharged because they had
lost the day previous.
This small action threw members OF
almost all the companies out of work
and they finally complained of the
shabby treatment to the chief of the
fire department who believes that a
great injustice has been done the dis
charged firemen.
The fremen are always ready &c
fight fires for the same coal companies
and they should not be discharged fol
such actions. 1t is not believed the
higher officials of the companies are
aware of the discharges

THE CHINESE MOTHER.
She IL steadfast In Affection For Her
Children,

The Chinese mother IS very fond OF
her children. She is happy in their
company and spends much time car
Ing for them. In a Chinese family the
birth of a child is a greater event than
with other orientals. Long before the
child is born the mother performs rites
and ceremonies to propitlate the gods
that her child may be boy. After
birth the little fellow is wrapped In
old rags and in winter is sometimes
put in bag of sand sewed close
around its neck to keep the little one
warm. Great rejoicing follows the
birth if the child is a boy; otherwise
there is an air of chastened disap-
poiutmcnt. But good Chinese parents
make the best of their little lassies,
becoming very fond and even proud Of
them | have known more than one
Chinese father TO exhibit his toddling
wee girl for approval, though always
with the customary national verbal
depreciation Of what belongs to one.
Indeed. this evidence OF excessive
courtesy may be found everywhere in
this strange land. 1t IS good form TO
vilify what is mine and laud what is
I thine. My good for nothing family
are all still troubling the earth with
their presence. How Is your honor
