The Way they DO In China.

When Chinaman takes his little
boy to school to introduce him to his
teacher, 1t is done as follows, accord
ing to one missionary writer:
When the Chinaman arrives at
school he is escorted to the reception
room. and both he and the teacher
shake their own hands profoundly.
Then the. teacher asks, What is your
honorable name%
my mean. insignificant name is
Wong"
Tea and pipe are sent for, and the
teacher says, please use tea" The
Chinaman sits and puffs for quarter
OF an hour before he says to the
teacher. What is your honorable
name?"
my mean, Insignificant name is
Pott,"
What is your honorable kingdom?"
'The small, petty district from whic
/ come is the United States of Amer
ica." This comes hard, but etiquette
requires the teacher to say 1t.
'IIow many little stems have you
sprouted?" (This means, How old
are you?")
Il have vainly spent 30 years"
els the honorable and great man of
the household living?" He is asking
about the teachers father.
"The old man is well"
"How many precious ones have
your"
Il have two lltie dogs" These are
the teachers own children.
How many little children have you
in your illustrious institution"
Il have a hundred little brothers"
Then the Chinanan comes to bust
ness.
Venerable master" he says, 81
have brought my little dog here, and
worshipfully entrust him to your
charge"
The little fellow, who has been
standing in the corner of the room,
comes forward at this, kneels before
the teacher, puts his hands on the
floor, and knocks his head against 1t.
The teacher raises him up and sends
him off to school, while arrangements
are being made for his sleeping room,
and so forth. At last the Chinese gen.
tleman rises to take his leave. saying,
II have tormented you exceedingly
today" to which the teacher re-
spends, "oh. no; have dishonored
you!" AS he goes toward the door he
keeps saying, 4 am gone, am gone"

While some children were recently
feeding the swans at the lake pige-
on alighted quite close to them and
one Of the boys attempted to capture
it, but it flew OFF over the lake toward
swan and apparently was about to
settle on it's back, instead of which it
closed its wings quite naturally and
dropped into the water close in front
of the swan and commenced to strug-
gle.
The swan went to assist it, put it's
head under the water and lifted the
drowning pigeon into the air. The
latter then made almost circuit of
the lake, eventually resting on the isl

HOW small RIrds Make Lonu JOurneys

How Small Birds Make Long Journeys
1t has often been asked how small
and weak birds manage to fly such en-
ormous distances when migrating. AS
a rule, however, small birds that have
come very far across the sea have not
flown, but have been blown over dur
ing violent gales, and many of them
arrive on land In half-dead condi-
ton.
In fair weather small birds make
long journeys successfully over con-
siderable tracts Of ocean, but the rea-
son Is that they are carried on the
backs Of the larger ones. When pass
ing an autumn in Crete a writer as
serts that he distinctly heard the twit-
tering Of small birds when fiocks Of
sand cranes were passing overhead on
their way to southern shores. On an
other occasion, when. firing gun, he
saw three small birds rise from the
flock and disappear again among the
cranes. A native priest assured him
that they came from Europe with
them, while 1t has been found that
small ..rds, never before seen in GER
tain parts. have been brought thith-
er at times of migration.
Another cause is that small birds
do not make their journeys in one
fight They generally rest during the
day. searching for food, and thus pro-
coed to their destination by easy
stages.

but, mama, he did take them"
cried the children together. "He was
the only person in the yard while
we were taking our maps, because
Mark saw him. He just did it to tease
u.s."
Their mama said nothing more
about the lost marbles, but told the
children to make some new ones and
bring them up near the house. Very
soon Gerald and Margaret were hav-
ing a fine time rolling the little balls
in their hands, and presently on

Then more rain came, and soon the
board was washed clean and white.

round eyes.

IDLE GOLD I'M BANKS.
Plan Proposed in English ParIia,
ment for Dealing With Unclaimed
Millions.

Millions.
The House of Commons gave first
reading yesterday to Mr.. Bottomley's
bill to make banks give return to
the State of unclaimed balances and
valuables which have been undis-
turbed in their possession for six
years or more and hand them over
to the Public Trustee.
THE object" he said, 'fs to bring
into the possession and control OF the
State the vast amount of wealth
which is at present lying dormant
and entirely unproductive in the
vaults and strong rooms of the vari-
GUS banking institutions Of the United
Kingdom"
Banks would have to make return
of the money securities, jewelry and
plate which had been in their posses
sion unclaimed for six years, and
which was the property of persons
who had not operated their account
during that period. They would also
have to account to the State for all
old bank notes or other obligations
which there was reason to believe
had by the af1uxion of time become
obsolete.
The theory of the bill was that
these banks had from various causes,
deaths, removals abroad, the extinc-
ton of families and the carelessness
of testatOrs, accumulated vast sums
and had been in the habit every six
years Of writing Off these dormant
balances.
There is over a million pounds to-
day." said Mr.. Bottomley, lin the
shape of unpaid dividends in the
possession of the joint stock banks
There was joint stock bank
which few years ago had as Gus
toner an eccentric old lady who had
22S,000 in the bank. Once in every
year she would drive up to the bank,
ask for the manager, draw a check
for the entire sum, count the notes,
check the interest and then pay it in
again and disappear for another
twelve months"
For seven years past that lady had
not been seen. That G28,000 with its
accumulated interest was still lying
in the bank. He could give the name
Of the bank to the Chancellor Of the
Exchequer. Was. there a doubt that
the old lady had ceased to exist?
What about the poor dependents of
the old lady who were deprived of
the money?
A wealthy personal friend with
money on deposit in various banks
was killed in a railway accident. The
family were now living in absolute
want because they were unable to
/ find out where the money was. They
had gone from bank to bank and
the banks had said they could give no
information.
Mr. Bottomley made himself re-
sponsible for the statement that there
was, one private bank in London
which admittedly had over two mil
lions of dormant securities.
His bill provided that after a CIV
en- date the whole of the securities
should be handed over to the Depart
ment of the Public Trustee. There
should be returns every January. The
result would be "a surprise to the
country and a veritable godsend to
