small conception Of what this Chinese

these different European countries
are all Caucasians; the different peo-
pies Of China are all Mongolians
These Chinese peoples speak IS or.
20 distinct languages. each divided
into almost innumerable dialects md

II half the girls knew how silly
they looked and sounded when they
constantly gisgle they would stop It.
Learn to smile; not giggle.
Nothing is more infectious and
charming than q good laugh: bu,
very few people know how to laugh
1t II as rare in life a. 1t IL on the
stage.
A giggle usually comes from ner.
vousness. A girl will gigsls when
she cannot think Of anything to say
or when she IL trying TO be at ease
In company. .~,~. ..-,~,,s
She will gisle when a boy meets
her and says "Good morning" She
will sisgle when he says Goodbye
She is only nervous, but she appears
silly.
Il Is no wonder that young met
speak with utter scorn Of this gig.
sling girl. They seem to think hel
the least attractive maiden on earth
It Is trying to attempt to hold any
kind Of conversation with a girl who
sisgles.
It Is not always possible to know
at first thought whether or not you
are one Of the girls who giggle. StoI
and think about it. Watch yourself
the next time you are with any one
See whether this senseless trick Is
a part of your social equipment. II
1t Is take any heroic means to stran-
gle that giggle until it Is dead.
Far better be silent; you may then
get the credit for wisdom that you
have not got. Better than all, II
you don't know how to give a cherry
musical. spontaneous laugh. then try
your best to learn how to smile.
Do not let yourself give a weary
smile. for that is the result Of effort
and self-consciousness; but anything
IS better than a silly giggle.--New

The following article, which was
published recently by the Christian Ad-
Vocate, is reproduced by request. It
condenses into a minimum space prac-
tically all LOT the so-called arguments
against reasonable and proper re-
straint Of dogs.
ihe approach Of dog days. brings
with them the periodic mad-dog scare
and a consequent senseless and brutal
usage OF the most faithful Of mans
brute friends. To the honest man
the special dog tax is fast converting
the ownership Of dog into a luxury.
owing to the special premium Offer
cd In some towns for the catching OF
stray dogs or to the value of tho CITY.
furnished dog collar, no mans dog
however tax protected, is free from
the sneak thief who owns a collarless
dog or covets the public premium.
And all this cruelty. the penalizing
taxation. and Indictment to thievery
grows out Of an almost baseless panic
"a fear as little likely of realization
as death from a falling brick-bat or a
lightning stroke. For the comfort
and restraint of our readers we print
herewith extracts from several lead.
ing papers Of the North and West.
Chicago Inter Ocean: There Is a
danger Of hydrophobia. It amounts
to less. however, than the danger Of
being kicked by horse. Yet no one
proposes to farmers that horses be de-
clared public nuisance, to be swept
of the earth. Why cannot we dis
play the same common sense about
dogs -
Boston Herald: "The most amia-
bic house dogs are so treated by K al
law the the wonder is they do not 70

Detroit Free Press: 1--WE can't get
along without Fido. His Susceptibility
to rabies is serious. but not necessari-
ly fatal to his race. England and
Germany have checked 1t effectively.
Even in our own country rabies has
become a rare affiiction. There are
far too many dogs who live and die
without going mad to wipe out the
entire race for the fault of a few"
Pittsburg Gazette-Times: "It is q
fact that dogs are no more likely to
be infected with rabies in the sum-
mer than In the winter, and the dog
days. as all intelligent persons know.
have nothing whatever to do with
the spread Of the disease. but 1t is
also a fact that popular fear Of rabies
Is at its height in the warm weather
and this Is the time when many ner-
vous persons suffer mentally on that
account"
