sensations, and continues
until the habit is fixed. 1t is then too
late to repent.
Toward the last days of January the
Chinese hold sort Of festival. 1t is
called Chinese New Years and China
men all over the world on this occa-
sion, pay all their debts as nearly as
possible, aud give freely to all caudies
and sweetmeats. Food of every de-
scription is freely given away on these
days, also curious Oriental presents
and n any other gifts are to be had.
On these days the Chinaman is dressed
his best, and general feeling of good
fellowship seems to be shared by ALL
A great display of fireworks generally
ends the celebration. Thousands of
visitors are attracted to Chinatown
during the days when this event oc-
ours.
The Chinese method of keeping count
is different, and considered more ac-
curate than any other system known.
1t consists of small box, through
which a number of round spindles have
been fastened. On each of these spin
dies are number of small round balls.
These balls may be placed either to the
right or left, or wherever desired. AS
an article is sold one of these balls, or
if occasion requires, several are moved
to certain different positions ON the
spindles. At the closing of the days
sales these small balls denote exactly
the amount sold. These balls range in
sizes, and no doubt each represents a
certain value. 1t is very interesting to
watch storekeeper figuring up his
days sales.
Then another interesting sight one
may see are the Joss houses. Several
of these houses were to be seen in Chi
natown before the earthquake.
1t is almost impossible for one te
understand the Chinese plays. The
music heard at one OF these plays is Of
kind one seldom he irs. A small boy
with onestringed violin produces 6
good imitation of what you hear dur
ing one of the plays given at one o.
their theatres. The Chinaman is also
noted for the large loads he is able t.
carry with the aid of stout pole ant
two large baskets. The Chinese arr
hard to understand: Their features
never betray them. Their ways of liv
ing, laws and secret societies, will evel
be remembered by those who hav,
taken a trip to Chinatown.

New Commandments

A well-known Liverpool house placed
on the desk of each of its clerks the fol-
lowing ten commandments:
1. Thou shalt not wait for some
thing to turn up, but pull off thy coat
and set to work.
2. Thou shalt not 60 about thy busi-
ness looking like "bum," for thy per-
sonal appe Arance is thy best letter of
recommendation.
3. Thou shalt not try to make ex-
cuses and rebuke those who chide thee.
4. Thou shalt not wait to be told
what to do.
5. Thou shalt not fail to maintain
thine own integrity, or do anything
which will lessen thine own self-re-
spect.
6. Thou shalt not covet another fel-
fow's job, nor his salary, nor the posi-
tion which he has got through hard
work.
z. Thou shalt not fail to live within
thine own income.
8. Thou shalt not fail to blow thine
own horn on the proper occasion.
9. Thou shalt not hesitate to say
mo" when thou meanest "no."
10. Thou shalt give every man a
square deal. This the last and greatest
commandment, and there is none like
unto it. Upon it hangs all the law and
profits of business.

mated human body that has been thrust
aside through want OF lumber to COM
plete the job, ornaments the mass of
debris. Yet into this liquid ooze mil
lions of men and women dip, convinced
that their hopes for eternity depend up
on drink of water that often gives
them cholera. This belief is foste ed
by the Brahmins, who peddle it on the
shore, one dipperful warranted to purge
tie soul from all impurities, and hav-
ing once been so unfortunate as to
taste it confess that it is certainly
strong enough to do so.
Concluding, wish to make few re-
marks upon tie condition of the Hin.
du woman at the present day. The
world has never been wanting of de-
nunciators of the female sex. 1t is a
custom that originated with Adam and
will, l suppose, be tiourishing at the
crack of doom, but all this misogynis-
tic philosophy, mostly the vaporing of
disappointed vanity or erOtic weakness,
is but lama, the real object being to
provide excuse for failings that judged
as matter of fact are abominable.
And so the Hindu is taught to attrib-
ute all the evils that accrue from chron-
ic incOmpeteucy to the influence of the
woman he enslaves, whose position on
the inventory of his household is among
the chattels. The birth of female
child is considered matter for lament,
and il spite of laws forbidding it, in
fanticide of female children is prac-
ticed extensively. Should she be un-
fortunate enough to escape this fate
the one that awaits her is worse. Mar
ried when child, to a man she sees
most probably for the first time as hus-
baud, whom sl.e must henceforth ad-
dress as Lord or Master, she is some
times widow at the age of fourteen,
which means social death, for to be a
widow aud live is regarded as the quin.
tess ence of evil, until within a few
years previous, she was rewarded for
her life of labor by forming part of her
husbands funeral pyre. For husband
to walk with or speak to his wife in
public, or display any of the natura
affection that the majority of them
must feel, fills the belly of the sane
timoniOus Brahmin with horror, which
genera ly finds vent in lecture upon
the general worthlessness of the fe.
male animal. Cunning priests in this
if in nothing el e, do they display their
wisdom, for sure enough would their
tricke y be Outtricked if made to com
pete with the keen inquisitive wit OF
the female gender.
Though not wishing to pose as an
advocate of Female Suffrage am new
ertheless convinced that there is par,
in the social drama for the performance
of which they are peculiarly adapted
Degeneracy to the extent that orienta
countries have reached, would, l be
lieve be impossible under conditions
maintaining proper relations between
the sexes. Their appeals may prove
more efficacious in prompting MIN t(
DObler efforts than the decree of mon
arch or the exhortations of bigote(
priestcraft.

A wise old owl lived in an oak:
The more he heard, the less he spoke;
The less he spoke, the more he heard
Why aren't we all more like that bird :?
The whole world loves the quiet men
Who sit all day as still as owls;
But tits needless to mention
1t gives its attention
To the man who gets up and howls.
Oh, not for wisdom praise the owl,
He only knows to sit and hoot.
The mule is far the wiser fowl
He up and kicks, when things don't

Mr.. Hess had been treated at the

THE BEN GREET PLAYERS.

An effort is being made by the
Normal School TO have the Ben
Greet company of English players
come to Bloomsbury some time
this winter to present one Of their
Shakesperean plays. This compa-
ny is we'll known both in England
and throughout the United States,
where it has played not only in the
larger cities, but at nearly all of
the colleges and universities.
To those who are not acquainted
with the Ben Greet players, word
of explanation may be in order.
They play the Shakesperean dram
as, as we'll as those of several of the
old English dramatists, using the
original texts, and presenting them
in the manner in which theatrical
companies did three centuries ago
in England. No scenery is used
and the curtain does not fall from
beginning to end of the drama.
Aside from being entertaining and
we'll acted, the Greet productions
are highly educational, giving an
insight into the methods of the
early English stage.
The writer has had the good for
tune of seeing this company pre-
sent Shakesperean plays in the
beautiful grounds of Mrs. Charles
Dudley Warner, in Hartford, Con-
necticut, and has personally met
Mr.. Greet several times.
Mr.. Greet is cultured English
gentleman, somewhat past the mid
die age, and his charming person
ality is reflected in his acting.
In order to secure this company,
those in charge at the Normal must
have two hundred seats disposed of
at one dollar each before they en-
close the contract. These will be
the best seats in the auditorium,
the rest selling for fifty cents. 1t
is to be hoped that the lovers of
the Legitimate drama in Blooms
burg will be eager to grasp the
chance to see this Ben Greet COM
pany, which is both entertaining
and educational.

DONATION DAY AT HOSPITAL.

Hospital. Gifts are acceptable at

particularly has been set apart on On
which donations of all kinds will
be received from all those who
have the interests of the institution
at heart. Every Bloomsburger
we'll knows of the good work k that
has been done at the hospital since
its beginning, and great number
of people throughout the county
also have reason to feel grateful Tor
the benefits they have derived from
it. 1t is a worthy object, and 1t IS
to be hoped the donation day Will
bring forth many gifts, large and
small, from the people OF this

State always knew the neighbor-
hood of the "salt springs" to be
choice deer country, because of the
attractiveness of the water for the
animals. The coming of the Woods
men, however, drove the deer out.
-Four years ago the last stick OF
timber was cut off that section, and
the wilds are just as lonely as ever.
And with the Ion eliness came the
deer again, only more plentiful
than ever. A man who visited that
section within the past month re-
ports having seen II deer in the
neighborhood of the "salt springs
while the soft soil for many rods
around show a perfectly tramped
condition where the deer have
roamed around. The wilds in that
section, because of thei- isolated
and ideal conditions, have become
virtually a nursery for the deer
tribe.
