ready-made kinds. This homemade
Hair Tonic will positively cure dand-
run and stops falling hair. Used dai-
ly II will keep the hair soft, fluffy and

Yuan Shi Kai Is a Chinaman. not a
Manchu. In the Seventeenth century
the Manchus. whose habitat originally
was Manchuria, the province of the
north, In which the greater part OF
the Russo-Japanese war was fought,
conquered China and since then have
maintained a Manchu on the throne,
Cinnamon wear pigtails in token OF
their servitude. Yuan Shi Kai was a
progressive, and his influence was
dominant the last few years OF the
late dowager's rule. He is charged
with accomplishing the old woman's
death. The new order in China Ia
said TO be reactionary. Prince Ching
is said to be deposed. Self-preserva-
ton is the motive OF the Manchus
The power that rises and prevails
under certain conditions always fears
to change those conditions for new
ones. as yet untriej. Yuan reformed
the Chinese army. of which he has
been the head, and with the prestige
he must have retained in some quar-
tiers, he may head formidable move
ment in favor of China for the
Chinese" which wstehcry means the
end Of the Manchu regime more than
the expulsion OF the white race.

life OF Grant. the above passage In

across my memory. II the Chinese

The career OF Grant is just such as

We Chinese have great admiration for
men who have arisen by their talents

Such was Grant. Naturally all China
delighted 10 do him honor.
