Asia.
Korea is small nation. hardly the
size Of the State of California. being
only 500 miles long and about 135 miles
wide. 1t occupies a small peninsula

OF the world being fully as old as
China, and because of that fact. from
which il gets its nickname. the Hermit
Nation. 1t is probably the least known
of any in the world.
Many a similar nation, in point of
area and population, is better known
than Korea. for no other reason than
her people did not want the world to
know her They were content to go
their own way minding their own
affairs. and they asked of all others to
do the same. Visitors and intruders
were plainly shown that they were not

successful attempt to break down that

of the world, only to be broken and
passed into the hands of a receiver,
so has Korea, the little hermit ma
ton of the immense Asia continent,
been virtually thrust into the hands
of a receiver by the events of the
last few weeks.
The veil which has Shrouded this
little empire from the gaze of the
world for so many centuries, has
been ruthleSSly torn awayby Japan.
No more will the Koreans be shell
tered from the inquiSitive gaze of
outsiders, no more will they be
able to MAINTAIN that excluSiveneSS,
more pronounced than that of the
most autocratic social queen; and
no more will they be permitted TO

Her people will be weaned

notice that the little empire existed,
but that was about ali that IL knew.

are a peculiar people
The Koreans are of Monaghan orr

like the Chinese and japanese they
are inclined To be tall of stature. In
their dress, many of their customs
and their architecture they show the
influence of the early Chinese civil

Her life is far from enviable, and she
is almost invariably the laborer and
breadwinner for the family. This. of
course, does not apply 20 the best
class of Koreans, except that they,
too. look upon women as far inferior
to men.
Another peculiar feature of the Ko-
rean custom which has to deal with
women is marriage. In Korea no man
is considered to have attained mans
estate until he marries. He cannot
become a full-hedged citizen untN he
has taken unto himself a wife. Con-

One day Logan was arguing a case

Browne. Logan continually referred to
the counsel on the other side as If his
name were spelled Browny, to the
great annoyance of that gentleman.
at last his honor interfered, observing:
"Mr. Logan, this gentleman's name
