A STATE CARRIAGE.
Present to Chinese Emperor That
Puzzled the Orisntais.

Present to q Chinese emperor nav
Puzzled tho orisntais.
When, in 1893, Sir George Macart-
ney headed the first British embassy
to China, he brought with him numer-
GUS presents for the emperor. Among
these was a magnificent state carriage.
an article which delighted, but at the
same time puzzled, the Chinese more
than any other gift. Nothing like It
had ever been seen at the capital.
Comical disputes Immediately arose as
to the seat intended for the emperor.
The hamnercloth which covered the
box Of the carriage had smart edging
Of festoons Of roses. It made q splen-
did appearance, and that. with its ele-
waited position, Immediately determined
the ofacial mind that it was without
doubt the emporer's seat. Then the
question arose Of what the inside Of
the coach was intended for. The blinds.
screens and SO forth were all carefully
examined, and 1t was decided that the
interior was the place for the ladies
only.
An old retainer went to q member Of
the embassy to ask IL the conclusions
were correct. When he learned that
the fine elevated box was the seat Of
the coachman and that the emperor's
place was inside the coach he was
Mortified. He asked. with a sneer, II
1t was supposed that the SON of heav-
en- would suffer any one to sit higher
than himself and turn his back on him.
When he found that the driver was
obliged to use the seat In question he
requested that the box be removed and
placed somewhere behind.-Helen 81.
