The Scottish Thistle.

The origin of the thistle as the ma
tional badge of Scotland is thus given
by tradition: When the Danes invaded
Scotland 1t was deemed unwarlike to
attack the enemy by night, instead Of
in pitched battle by day; but on ono
occasion the invaders tried a might
attack. In order to prevent theft
tramp being heard they marched bare
footed, and they had succeeded In
creeping close up 70 the Scottish
forces unobserved when one of then
stepped on thistle and uttered a cry
Of pain. The alarm was given, and
the attack was beaten off. Out OF
gratitude the thistle was adopted az
the insignia of Scotland.

supposed to carry on any trade
whatever, the salesman is imme-
diately asked what is his business.
He replies that he is there to ad-

to work with posters and paste. He
plasters the walls of the city and
sometimes he even goes so far as
to use temples, mission buildings
and the walls of conspicuous resi-
dences for billboards. Enterprising
statesmen have been known to ad-
vertise ON the walls despite warn

many instances of violence as a

Then, with everybody happy, the
salesman sends out his selling
crew. Generally the passion of the
lefty officials for the American
cigarette is sufficient to insure the
salesman his opportunity to sell.
The officials, usually have been
well supplied, but il the officials
are not smokers and the salesman
! is requested to get out of town as
soon as he begins selling, he does
SO promptly.
In many American cities 1t
would be a crime to sell cigarettes
to boys under IS years old. In
China it is different. The Tobacco
Trust statesmen sell to everybody.

when missionaries protest that
this is not right, the Tabocca Trust
statesmen tell them that they are in
China to sell, and the more they
sell the better they are liked by
