CHINESE AS SOLDIERS.
Experience Of an English of'oer Who
Drilled and Trained Them.

One Of the greatest assets posses
sed by Chinese as soldiers is in their
marching power: another Ia their
ability to manage with the smallest
amount Of transport. owing to the
hardy outdoor life and climate bo
which they are accustomed. and to
the fact that they live almost en-

Cost of Bad Temper.

A person complaining to Socrates
that a man had not returned his salu-
tatfon and seeming to be angry about
It, Socrates said TO him: 1t is an
odd thing that If you meet a man III
conditioned in body you would not
have been angry, but to have met a
man rudely disposed in mind pro-
vokes you"
This means that 4 bad temper Is
like a headache, a fever or a At Of
rheumatism, and that ones attitude
toward II should be that Of sympa-
thy and sorrow and not of anger or
resentment, says the Ohio State
Journal. A bad temper Is rheum
or microbe in the blood. A man
cannot help It. It is a fate that has
been decreed against him by many
conditions. We use the terra bad
temper in its accustomed sense but
really there is no such thing. TEN
per is equilibrium, eyenness, balance
poise and when this condition is dis
turbed a man is said TO loss his tenn
per and take on the unnatural con-
dition, which is disease.
So when a man loses his temper
he loses his health, and thus becomes
an object of sympathy. And as A
man who IL sick loses his strength,
so does a man who loses his temper
A man who flies into a passion Is
weaker for It afterward. One who
is surly. sour, iIl-natured, Is always
a weak man. Whatever he gains n
the world is at the expense OF self
respect and personal influence.

With a wealth Of long way hair. and

and invariably carries little black

Is held in awe By nIne-tenths Of the

IN demand by the people Of his race.

ing in our hoodoo doctor" said one
coIored woman. but what Is the
difference between him and divine
heaIers OF the white folks7"

great majority Of them, are firm be-
levers IN the power Of the evil spirit

their race with the power 70 con
lure" an enemy, or one Of whom the
conjurer Is Jealous.
When such a person pays a social
call to a supposed friend the first
thing necessary after the visit, ac-
cording to the hoodoo doctor. Is TO
throw coarse salt over the floor Of the
room in which the alleged conjurer
has visited, and then, with a vigorous
movement. sweep the salt east and
west and north and south. the while
the sweeper mutters an incarnation
known only TO the hOodoo doctor
and to his patients.
The next step is to send for the
hoodoo doctor-the quicker the
better, in order that the conjurer
may not have time to get in his
deadly work or to work any material
harm to the health or the happiness
of his victim.
upon the scene he goes through the
salt sweeping process again and calls
upon the evil spirits TO depart in
stanter. His visits are preferably
made by night, but where this Is
impracticable the room wherein lies
the victim Of the dread hoodOo Is
darkened. The hoodoo doctor then
proceeds to rub his patient-always
in the dark-and the evil spirits
he rubs out of conjured patient are
said to be marvellous In size and
hideous TO behold. After the rub
bling process is over the hoodoo doc

doses until he Is assured that the
