QotEH NAMES USED IN CHINA,
Much the Same Idea as That Of the
North American Indian.

"We Chinese" said the law student,
give our children queer names. Our
girls. for instance are not called
Mabel, Jenny or Matilda, but Cloudy
Moon. Celestial Happiness, Spring
Peach or Casket OF Perfumes. Our
boys get less delicious names. Boys
are made for work and wisdom, rather
than for dancing and pleasure, and
their names show this, as Practical
Industry, Ancestral knowledge. Com
plete Virtue, Ancestral Piety, Discreet
Valor. To our slaves We give still an.
other set Of names. Yes, those dear,
pathetic little slaves of ours, some
girls, some boys. who do a hundred
various little tasks about the hous, ,,
these lowly creatures have names like

Some one rushed quickly through

even before she had her shoes and
stocking on, she found herself wonder

time. Not Williston-he~ was dead.
Not Gordon-he slept in his own room

judge the prescribed one? He was not

 Prof Paul Radin had recently re- turned from a sojourn of nearly six months in the Winnebago Indian res ervation, which stretches south from Sioux City, across the Iowa line into Nebraska While there making a study of the language and customs of the Winnebagos, he made phonograph ic records of 120 different songs, chants, prayers, medicine and war dances, and the like, all of which he intends to use for scientific rather than for popular or commercial pur poses.

SENDING GOLD
 INTO CANADA

New York. July 31.-The New York agency of the Bank of Montreal sent an additional $750,0O0 in gold to Can ada yesterday, bringing the total sent over the border during the last two weeks upto $3,550,000. A prominent Canadian banker in. New York said yesterday that these shipments of gold to Canada at this time were the result of the sharp demand for money over the border where bumper crops are promised and little business reaction has been felt The Canadian banks, he explained, have had large balances in New York and s/ the end of the month approaches and it became ne- cessary to increase their reserves the call on New York for cash had put the price of exchange to such a point that it was cheaper to bring the hard money from here than to sell eX- change.

THE GREATEST THING.
By EDWIN A. WYE,
Copyright. 1908. by Edwin A. N--.

| 1 What is the greatest thing in the world?
 The scholar replies:
 KNOWLEDGE is the greatest be- cause it is fundamental. Without knowledge one is lost. Knowledge comprehends all that may be known and explains all that may be explained. Knowledge is the only key to the uni verse
 The artist replies: ART is the greatest thing. It is more than knowledge. It includes feel ] ing. It combines in it's product both matter and spirit. It is the next to creative power. It is human miracle The lawyer replies: JUSTICE is the greatest of all. Or ganized society cannot live without it. It is the soul Of peace It is the l spring of progress. It is the diyinest attribute of God.
 Youth replies:
 AMBITION is tue greatest thing. Without it a man would be but an animal Civilization is simply realized ambition. Kill ambition and hope would be dead. It is the animating spirit of all. Age replies:
 CONFINEMENT is greatest. Gar 1 ner your knowledge realize your am- bition. What then? Rest and con- tentment must fill up the measure of living. Without it there is neither peace nor happiness.
 The fnancier replies: MONEY is the greatest of all It makes the difference between savagery and sanity. It's power is known in every place, 1t moves all things. It is the spring of all activity.
 The spender replies:
 PLEASURE is the greatest thing The joy of the senses is all. All sensa- tion leads up to enjoyment. He who treads the primrose path of dalliance. he who SQueeZeS most out of the or ange of life. is wisest of all.
 The mother replies:
 SELF SACRIFICE is greatest be- cause it is the highest duty and it gives the supremest pleasure. We are so made that the truest note is sound ed only through sacrifice of self
 The invalid whispers:
 HEALTH is greatest. Knowledge, ambition, money. pleasure. content ment-all these fee in the presence of pain and suffering Without health existence is but misery.
 The preacher replies:
 RELIGION is the greatest of all. It is the only tie that binds men to i'm. mortality. It is more than philosophy It is life-abundant life-life of the spirit.
 Now
 Is there no greatest thing: Surely Let us all answer:
 LOVE is the greatest thing in the world" Without it knowledge is vain. ambition is purposeless, money is use less. contentment impossible It n- cludes all else It is the snprens' mo- tive of religion. the essence of set. sacrifice. the spring of art. the so'irve of all highest pleasures.
