Ducks in China.

There are more ducks in China
than in all the rest of the world.
China, literally, is white with these
birds, and day and night the country
resounds with their metallic and
scornful voices. Children herd ducks
on every. road, on every pond, on
every farm, on every lake, on every
river. There is no backyard without
it's duckhouse. There is no boat,
little or great, without its duck quar-
tiers. Even in the cities Of China
ducks abound. They dodge between
the coolies legs. They fit, squawk-
ing, out of the way of the horses.
Their indignant quack will not un-
seldom drown the roar Of urban COM
merce. All over the land there are
great duck-hatching establishments,
many of them of a capacity huge
enough to produce $4,000 young
ducks every year. Duck among the
Chinese Is the staple delicacy. :

General Demand

of the Wel-Informed of the World has
always been for a simple, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy Of known
value; q laxative which physicians could
sanction for family use because its COM
ponent parts are known to them to be
wholesome and truly beneficial in effect,
acceptable to the system and gentle, yet
prompt, in action.
In supplying that demand with its ex-
cellent combination Of Syrup Of Figs and
Elixir of SIENNA, the California Fig Syrup
Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies
on the merits of the laxative for its remark
able success.
That is one Of many reasons why
Syrup of Figs and Elixir Of SIENNA is given
the preference by the Well-lnformed.
To get it's beneficial effects always buy
the genuine-manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co.,, only, and for sale

The blouse is made with fronts and
back, which are tucked on becoming
lines, and to which the pretty three
quarter sleeves are attached. These
sleeves are finished with oddly shaped
cuffs and to the lower edge OF the
blouse is Joined a basque portion,
which keeps it perfectly in place. The

Shirt Waist or Blouse.

Every fresh variation of the shirt

one, that while it is made in tailored
style, departs somewhat from the
regulation model and is exceedingly

it is made of white linen and the lit

tucked, while the band is of the same
trimmed with pearl buttons, but
there are a great many possibilities
in the design, simple as it is. 1t can
be made of washable material and
left unlined, or it can be made of silk
or of wool and used with or without
the lining as liked, while the little
chemisette can be of embroidery in
place of the tucking, or can be treated

Aspect Of a Factory-Life Evil at
Birmingham, England-Organ-
ization That Makes Drunkards.
A startling revelation was made at
a meeting Of manufacturers in Bir-
mingham, England, recently, called
together by a committee which was
appointed sometimes 6 to Investigate
the causes of the obviously falling
off in their physical and mental capac-
tiles Of the factory girls employed
in the Birmingham mills.
The committee reported that girls
drinking clubs in the factories existed
to a large extent. These clubs were
deliberately formed, it is said, for
the purpose of surreptitiously intro
ducing drink into factories or work
shops, to be consumed in tea, and for
the promotion Of other similar ways
Of celebrating birthdays, marriages,
and various social events connected
with the staff; also for habitual
drinking together by the girls in pub
lie houses after leaving work and on
public holidays. The committee had
evidence that the clubs were seriously
affecting the moral character Of many
girl employees, and uniting them for
maternal responsibilities. They ap-
pealed to the employers to insist upon
The suppression Of existing clubs, and
TO prevent their establishment in any
form, suggesting that adequate rules
to that end should be posted in fac
tories.
Canon Denton Thompson, rector OF
Birmingham, who presided at the
meeting, said that girls and women
were encouraged, and even coerced,
10 join these clubs. The weekly sub.
Scriptions are from two to six cents,
Or even more, or else collections are
made for the purpose, generally by
some one in authority at the factory.
In some parts of the city the public
houses become crowded by women
md girls directly the factories are
closed.
Drink is taken into some factories
surreptitiously; in others permission
Is actually given to the girls to have
It. There Is reason to fear that some

The Prcttiest Dresses.

The prettiest afternoon and even
ing dresses seen this season are those
of m%ousseline, trimmed with cloth.
Banded at the bottom and trimmed
lightly at the corsage, the effect is
the best, and it should be dyed tc
match the others. Such a gown is
not %perishable, and may be worn by
women of almost any age. In black
it is wonderfully striking.

ConsoIing Thoughts About the Young

Consoling Thoughts About the Young
Do not expect too much converse
tional wisdom from the young.
There are two classes of young per-
SONS: those who do. not think at all,
and those who think wrong. To
think right requires knowledge, and
of that the young can only have a
very limited supply.
A young person, therefore, who
utters mistaken opinions Is not nee
essarily foolish, but gives the only
evidence possible of having begun to
think, and of being, therefore, in a
hopeful state of progress.-Life.
