Practical Laundry BAGS.

Attractive and practical laundry
bags are made up from the common
brown crash combined with c%retonne,
the latter preferably in tapestry de-
signs. The upper parts-two-thirds-
will be of the crash and the bottom
of cretonne.
The tops have the hoop finish, and
the soiled articles can be released
from the bottom, SO that such a bag
is extremely handy.
Waste paper baskets to match may
be bought which are made to fold.
For vacation use, | am sure these
accessories would prove very use
full.

This fashion of putting little girls
into frocks that scarcely cover them
came into vogue last year, and liter
ally deformed thin children who be-
came the victims Of 1t. This year the
loose frocks are all about a full knee
in length, and some still longer. In
addition to the blouses and tunics
there are many apron, or pinafore
frock forms, a supply of which will
keep the healthy romper looking fresh
at all hours of the day, at a compare
lively small outlay Of labor OF money.

Will oh S'So o
interest. Thanks to the constant al
tention and companionship of Mr.. Rob-
ertson. Y. M. C. A. general secretary IN
Tientsin. and Mr.. Fay, a Chinese resi-
dent and a Mr.. A. of Yale, the most
progressive city under Chinese admin
istration was opened up TO us III "
n that fairly illumined its eau
cational, social and religious prop-
lens; and l want to put before you d
few facts that group themselves ABOUT
three things: The broad and wise pol
lev of the local Chinese government
under the greatest of it's men, yuan
Sbi Kai, the terrible bordorland De-
tween the Chinese city and the foreign
settlements and the strategic posltloh
occupied by the Y. M. G. A.
To say that China is awakening or
will awaken is a false statement OF
the case; to say that China has aWak-
ened is a platitude. 1t is self evident
and stares you in the face on every
corner, in every block, OF every street.
Inst as we Judge the possibilities and
the quality of a mans mind by his
best work, so we must judge of what
China not only is capable of doing,
but will do, by what her best men are
ACCOMPLISHING and have accomplished.
Tientsin is the product OF one mans
mind. That man, Viceroy Yuan Shi
Kai. Is now prime minister, or practi
cally that in Picking for the purpose
OF working out his same plans fol
the whole empire as nj has done fol
his own city. Therefore What Tientsir

son knows what he is talking abou'
when he says that the conviction tina
China must have progress and thu
determination to change has seizet
upon every official of high rtandipi
from one end Of the empire to tn
other. And / believe that every on
who knows the Chinese agrees tina
where the Chinaman las the will
he will find the way.
The extraordinary achievement
since 1900 in Tientsin prove how swift

To strengthen the eyes to prevent
watering there is a lotion made of five
grains each Of sulphate of zinc and
powdered alum to a gill Of distilled
water. or that which has been boiled
and cooled. This should be bottled
and shaken until the powders are dis
solved. Then 1t must be strained
through paper to take out any par

this at night and once or twice during
the day.

That China is progressing by leaps
and bounds is true, but hat the
same charge of ~carelessness and super
iciality in method may be brought
against her that Is brought against the
Japanese educational leaders is not
true. The Chinese educators have
proven in their work in Tientsin that
they can apprehend the seriousness of
a great problem and grapple with 1t
swiftly and strongly. Kindergarten,
primary schools, middle schools, col
leges, a university and again normal
schools for the training of Chinese
men and women teachers, are in opera
ton, all purely Chinese, some managed
by the government, some by private
individuals. The board Of education
is under fearful pressure; a great cam
paign of education must be carried
| through all over China within ten
years if the nation is to be saved. AS
a result, teachers must be trained in
a hurry. Instead of turning out Sec
ond grade teachers with superficial
training, the following method is
adopted to get results quick" A
normal school, for example, for women
is established with a complete dormi-
tory system, the entire expenses of
the scholars is borne by the govern
ment and ten dollars a month is paid
to each student besides her expenses,
thus placing a premium upon this
method of preparation. On the other
hand, examinations are held in the
different provincial c%enters, and those
students are selected and admitted tc
the school who have the highest
standing. / went through such a schoo
myself and talked to the teachers, WHIT
were Chinese, of course, but who spoke
English. There we're about 140 girl'
, preparing for teachers. An APPARENT!
inexhaustible treasury has been de
t voted to the equipment of the schools
| which surpasses anything I have seel
in Japan in the way of scientific labor
= atories for chemistry, physics, biology
physiology and engineering with 1t
various branches. An Industrial school

A Serious charoe,

Too little attention has been paid
to a very important matter which was
preached in the United States senate
by Foraker and Bailey. Mr.. Foraker
declared his belief on information that
an arrangement had been made be.
tween the department Of justice and
the railroads by which the latter are,
to be allowed to violate the commodity
clause of the anti-railroad law indef-
initely without prosecutions being
started.
Commenting on this, Senator Bailey
said: THAT the senator from Ohio is
right seems apparent from the fact
that violations of the law continue
with IMMUNITY and no prosecutions
have been instituted" Mr., Bailey as.
serted that the president could be
and ought to be impeached;" and to
this proposition there was no reply
from the Republican side. But will he
| be ~impeached? Or, Is he totally i'm
mune from congressional interference?

The Chinese government is surely
doing it's best. Gambling has been
prohibited within the city on pain of
ten years MISUNDERSTANDING in
every form. A search Tor an opium
den proved the efficiency Of the law,
and inspection wiped them out of ex-
istence.
Perhaps the least said about the out
rageous doings of the foreigners in
Tientsin the better. 1t is a subject
that people do not like to discuss and
do not wish to have brought before
them. 1t is true, nevertheless, that
in the foreign settlements the Chinese
are finding endless opportunity for
the gambling which is prohibited by
their government in their own city
and is nevertheless openly coun
tenanced by several consuls of for
eign nations in spite of their agree
ments with the Chinese government

night there are four half-hour lectures
on elementary educational subjects,
