The Chinese sampans.


In Canton 100000 people spend their
whole existence in boats. which are
there called sampans They are born
in them, live In them from Infancy TO
old age and finally die in them. Col
lectively these boats form a floating
suburb to the city proper. one of the
most amazing human settlements in
the world. Every creek is crammed
with them. Along the main banks Of
the river they are huddled twenty deep
so close together that the covering
Of mats appears continuous as far as
the eye can reach. And each sampan
houses n separate family, with its own
big brazier lamp. which serves for
heating, lighting and cooking the even
ing meal. The scene when a really
serious confiagration once gets a prop
er hold In the midst OF these floating
wooden homes may be imagined. Es-
cape is impossible except for those
moored at the outermost edge. In one

THEATRICAL
Grand oPERA HOUSE

Sevengala. the hypnoust. heads a good
vaudeville bill which opened for the cur
rent week at the Opera House yesterday
afternoon, and which will be seen there
three times daily during the remainder OF
the week It would he hard 10 imagine a
more thoroughly ridiculous. and amusing
lot of antics than those through which
Sevengala put a score OF hypnotized
subjects yesterday afternoon. II you can
picture twenty thoroughly earnest indi-
viduals endeavoring TO catch an elusive
and imaginary flea, or rather twenty such
fieas. one hid away on the person of each
subject. you can have an idea OF what
this clever hypnotist does in the way OF
creating amusement. Then again he had
his subjects doing skirt dances. singing IN
chorus. quartets. trios and solos, picking
grapes, walking tight ropes. going bathing
and half hundred other and equally fool
ish things. The more serious side Of hyp-
notism was dealt with in a number Of
mystifying tests. while mental telepathy
came in for its share in the performance.
In this phase Of the work Sevengala was
ably assisted by Mile Minerva

THE LINCOLN PENNY.
1t is appropriate that Abraham Lin
coins face should be placed upon the
new penny 10 be issued by the United
/ States mint
The penny is the coin Of the com
mon people.
And We are informed that the face
Of Lincoln on this coin win have
smile on It.
Lincoln seldom smiled. His life in
many respects was hard one, and his
face was scanned with sorrows. When
in repose those who looked upon 1t
say it was the saddest face they ever
beheld
The artist wanted to find one picture
Of Lincoln in the act Of smiling.
After long search he found one pho
tograph in which there was the sug-
gestion Of a smile.
The artist took that suggestion and
studied out a facial expression such
as Lincoln might have used while talk
ing TO children.
Lincoln smiling at a child!
The conception of the sculptor is
fine one. Lincoln was fond of children.
They liked him. They looked into his
face and with the insight Of childhood
saw the goodness in that sorrowfu'
face.
Another significant. feature in the
history Of the Lincoln penny Is the
history OF the designer. Bremen came
here from Paris in 1890 n penniless
youth of twenty-one. Being unable to
find anything else, he sold penny boxes
of matches on the streets OF New York
until he could do better.
The coin of the poor-Lincoln's face
smiling at a child-the designer who
sold matches for a penny
Isn't that a true and triple apotheo-
sis Of Americanism2
Think of the channels through which
the coin will go in the future years Of
the republicl Common hands, the kind
Of hands that Lincoln loved to grasp,
will IN millions OF ways handle the
humble coin.
The newsboy who boards his little
capital for making change. the Sunday
school child who brings it's penny to

ment store whose tray is filed with
the shining pence the gatherer up for
the penny slot machine. the worn and

"An old couple from the east" says

their son in this city. If the mother

constantly asking for her and is not

The other evening she went to another
part Of the house while he was in the
parlor and after he had asked for her
a half dozen times the son said, rather
curtly:
"Tt seems as though you couldn't
be without mother five minutes at a

Laxative for
Women Free

There is a great difference in the
purposes TO which laxative should be
put Tablets and pills. salts. etc, are
usually violent purgatives or cathar-
ties. and altogether too powerful for
the average person.
a woman at all times needs only a
mild iaNative--in fact, none other is
needed by anyone, weak or strong
though they may be. for the object is
simply TO move the bowels, and IL a
gentle laxative will do IT, what is the
use of a violent one?
DR. Caldwers Syrup Pepsin has
earned a well-deserved vogue among
women and children and old folks
people who must necessarily be care
ful OF what they take.
1t is a liquid laxative tonic and ad-
mittedly the greatest stomach liver
ana bowel remedy before the American
people. The price is only so cents or 81
"A bottle, as it comes in both sizes, and
all druggists sell il. Its pleasant taste
and gentle'action make II an ideal REM
edy for women in constipation, torpid
liver. sour stomach. sick headache,
heartburn and such like digestive COM
plants. Its use for a short time will
remove the trouble entirely so that fu-
ture medication will be unnecessary.
It's tonic properties build mp the stom-
ach and intestinal muscles so that
they act naturally again. That this is
so Is the experience OF many heads OF
families, like Mrs. Brannan, OF Alvar-
ado. Va. Mrs. X. l.. Stout, OF Louis

fact way out in Williams. Cal, as
