Tho Roar of China's Ducks.

Tourists in China are always sur
prised by the number Of ducks they
see. There are more ducks in China
than in all the rest Of the world.
Their voices are a familiar sound in
every town and country spot OF the
seacoast and the interior Of the vast
empire. Even in the large cities ducks
abound. They dodge between the cool
les legs. They fit squawking out or
the way of the horses. Their ind1g-
nant quack will not unseldom drown
sthe roar of urban commerce. Children
herd ducks on every road, on every
pond. on every farm. on every lake, on
every river There is no back yard
without its duck house. There Is no
boat, little or great. without its duck
quarters. All over the land there are
great duck Matching establishments,
many of them Of a capacity huge
enough to produce $4,000 young ducks
every year Duck among the Chinese
is a staple delicacy. 1t is salted and
smoked like ham or beef.-New YORK

Pawnino Bank Bills.

"Pawnbrokers don't think much Of
ten dollar bills as pledges" said the
city salesman. Il saw a man pawn
one the other day for $3.50. When
asked why he didn't spend his SO in
stead Of soaking it for a little more
than half the amount he explained that
he wanted to keep that particular bill.
Twice before he had tried to keep a
certain bill by giving it as security to
a friend who had SO many bills that he
wouldn't need to spend that particular
one. but both times the friend got his
money mixed and the keepsake was
lost after all. This time he depended
upon the pawnbroker to tide him over.
