From Shansi there now comes a pathet.
ic ale of extreme poverty leading to law
breaking, and the consequent punishment.
In the region north OF Fen-Shou-Fu (Shan-
si), the people are very poor. When they
planted wheat, the income from their
small farms was not sufficient for the
years They knew that IL they
planted the poppy, their income would BE
greater. They also knew that II was
against the law, as the Chinese govern
ment is hghting the opium traffic; but in
their straits they decided that they must
grow opium. SO they banded together,
thinking If every one planted 1t, the au-
thorities could not do much In Furnishing
them. They started planting and retribu-
ton followed quickly. An official with a
hundred oldiers went to the cillage and
shot down 80 men, and told the rest he
would be back to do the same to them If
the poppy were allowed TO grow.-Lucy J.
Whiting. in the Christian Herald.

The Great Art of Dying.

To die without rebellion and without
weakness is the masterpiece OF a man.
A mountain guide-whose name the
London Daily Mail does not mention
In n~arrating the story of his heroism-
with two others, was leading a party
over n Of the most dangerous passes
Of the higher Alps.
The men, as is usual, were tied to-
gether by a long rope. AS they scaled
a wall Of ice they slipped on the
edge of a frightful chasm. The guide
was at the end Of the rope.
Without his weight there was a
chance for the others to regain their
footing; with it, his experienced eye
told him. there was none. With in
slant courage he drew his knife frolu
his belt and said quietly to the man
next him:
Tell mother how it happened, Ed
mond."
He cut the rope and fell, never to be
e e again.

HIRAM CARPENTERS WONDER
Full CURE OF PSORIASIS.

II have been afflicted for twenty
years with an obstinate skin disease,
called by some M. DIS. psoriasis, and
,others leprosy, commencing on my
scalp; and in spite of all / could do,
with the help of the most skilful doc
tors, it slowly but surely extended un-
til a year ago this winter IL covered
my entire person In the form of dry
scales. For the last three years Ihave
been unable to do any labor, and
suffering intensely all the time. Every
morning there would be nearly a dust
painful of scales taken from the sheet
on my bed, some of them half as large
AS the envelope containing this letter.
In the latter part of winter my skin
commenced cracking open. / tried
everything, almost, that could be
thought OF, without any relief. The
18th of June / started West, in hopes
i could reach the Hot Springs. i
reached Detroit and was so low I
thought / should have to go to the
hospital, but finally got as far as Ian
sing, Mich, where l had a sister liv-
ing. One DR.. - treated me about
two weeks, but did me no good. All
thought / had but a short time to live.
/ earnestly prayed to die. Cracked
through the skin all over my back,
across my ribs, arms, hands, limbs;
feet badly swollen; toe-nails came off;
finger-nails dead and hard as a bone;
hair dead, dry and lifeless as old
straw. o my God! how l did suffer.
my sister wouldn't give up; said,
wye will try CGtic.-s' Some was sr-
piled to one hand and arm. Eureka!
there was relief; stopped the terrible
burning sensation from the word go.

solvent, Ointment and Soap. / com

three time a day after meals; had a
bath once q day, water about blood

piled Cuticura Ointment morning and

voLpE ORCHESTRA OPENS SEASON

fore an audience OF great enthusiasm and
moderate size. The sooist OF the evening
was Rudolph CAM. who played with the
orchestra TschaikowsSy's piano concerto in
3 fat minor. Op o. playing II with great
brlliance OF tone and power and fine facil-
ity OF technique albeit that the more deli
cate nuances were sometimes forgotten.
But the finale was given most stirrinsly
and awoke tumultuous applause.
The PLAYING OF the orchestra itself was
vigorous and enthusiastic. There was an
abundance OF tone and an amplitude OF
spirit. and what crudlty OF execution re-
mained may well be forgiven The novelty
OF the evening was Percy Goetschlus
"Christmas Overture" which possessed TWO
or three pretty themes that did not seem
10 be able To accomplish that FOR which
they had set out. Yet the music nowed on
pleasantly enough. even II al the END llttle
impression remained as 10 exactly what the
composer had aimed at The other orcnes-
trail numbers were Liszt's Les Preludes

Ernestine Schumann- Heink is apparently
as fixed and eternal as the laws OF the

that greeted her at her recital in Carnegie

probably the most enthusiastic.
What was better still-there was undis-
CURSED enthusiasm among those few who
had in past seasons recognized that despite
her magnificent voice the singers art was
not impeccable. But yesterday afternoon
even these were satisfied FOR IN Nine.
Schumann- Heinks singing there was a new
restraint. even an austerity OF method,
though II was true that I'm her programme
there was little Of the exaggeratedly dra-
matte.
There were FIVE groups OF s0ngs-by
Beethoven Schubert, Schumanu. Brahms,
and the last Of three American composers.
Very beautifully did the contralto give
schumann's "Mondnacht." and IN all her
selections she showed skilful use. OF her
piano tones Yet with all this 10 be perfect
ly frank. fine as her great organ voice still
is, there were times notably IN the Schu-
bert group, when Il showed an unwonted
roughness. And Nine. Schumman-Heink's -
method Of singing did not always disguise
this fact.
A special word OF praise should be given
TO her English diction, az she showed II In
the last group Of songs-Marion Bauer's

and Harold's "Child's Prayer"
The audience was able 20 understand
