the months having, twentynine or thirty days, as the case might be. In every nineteen years there are seven years which have thirteen months. This is not quite correct, so the Chin csc adopted the expedient of slipping in an extra month ever third year so as to keep the seasons in place and the years running smoothly
 The adoption of the Georgian cal endar doubtless will be welcomed by all Chinese scholars. Heretofore, whenever a new emperor ascended the throne the Chinese began to reck. on their years all over again. The day of the year, however. did not change with the coming of the new ruler, but it became that day and month of the first year in the reign Of the new ruler. For the little Chin csc schoolboy it certainly could be no joke to reckon the date o; an event which happened ten or fifteen hun dred years ago when he had 70 figure who was on the throne and the year Of his reign in which the event occur red

LEAP YEAR AND
 ITS SIGNIFICANCE

As far back as the year 46 B.. C.. a writer in the Standard says, wise and learned astronomers gave scien- tine reasons why every fourth year should contain 366 days instead of the regulation 365: and because this fourth year was three minutes longer than the astronmical year, they furth. CT demonstrated that some year divis. ible by four, and hence to the ordin- ary mind, leap years were not leap years at all. Thus 1700, 1900, and 1900 were not leap years, but to all whom it may interest, the year 2.000 will be reckoned as such.
 But though there is a necessity, from the scientific point of view. of one year containing more days than another, there is not positive record or the origin of that delicate priyi. lege which tradition says is the right Of women in leap years. Myth ascribes its inception to St. Patrick. It Is said that while walking on the shores Of Lough Neagh the saint accosted by St. Bridget, who tearfully told him that there was trouble among the nuns over whom she ruled owing to the fact that 8 woman might not pro pose to a man. 1t may be remarked that. in the days of St. Bridget, celi- bacy was not forced as 8 general rule for the clergy, though advocated by the church as the proper mode Of life for the clergy.
 Moved by her tears, St. Patrick of fered to concede the coveted pTivi lege to woman one year out of every seven. But Bridget declared that this would never satisfy her discontented charges, and pleaded for at least one year in four, enforcing her argument by throwing her arms around St Pat rick's neck. "Biddy acushla, squeeze me that way again. and I'll give you leap year, the longest year of the lot, is said to have been his reply. so that the matter was settled Elm. boldened by her success, Bridget s9rnghtway proposed to the saint himself but being under Q strict VOW of .celibacy, he felt obliged to refuse, smoothing over the awkward situa- tion thus created with a kiss and the present Of a silk dress.
 Until a century ago it was recogniz- cd law of leap year that in the event Of man declining a proposal of mar. riage, he should help to alleviate the natural disappointment caused by his answer by giving a silk dress to his unsuccessful admirer.

Maybe She liked Coffee.

Kent Cooper. a newspaper man, said he was in a restaurant in Chica- go recently when he observed, sitting at the table next him, an evidently Weil-to-do young man and a young woman, the latter of whom showed signs of not being accustomed to the restaurants of the class she was then patronizing. When the remnants of the dessert were removed from be- fore the pair, the waiter stood at at tention for the final order.
 T think you may bring me a cigar and a demi tasse." said the man.
 T don't care for cigar" giggled the girl, but you may bring me one of the other things and a cup of cof. fee"

 CALENDAR FOR COMPUTATION

NEW YODK, Feb. r. Members Of the large colony Of Chinese in New York City are already exchanging New Year remembrances with their relatives and friends, although the actual celebration of the Chinese New Year will not be held until tomorrow. Beginning at midnight tonight all business will be suspended, and for the next twenty-four hours lanterns will glow on the balconies and in the windows Of the old building in Mott, Dover and Pell streets, joss sticks will burn, bales of red prayer slips will be consumed to apppease the gods and vast quantities of edibles most liked by Chinese will vanish before the onslaught of the hosts of the choS en.
 Among the sons of the Celestial kingdom noise is an essential feature of the New Year festival, as it is of all Chinese celebrations of whatever kind. Firecrackers will be set of in large quantities and bombs will be exploded in the streets providing the necessary permission is obtained from the city authorities. Interming- ling with this roar will be the clang of gongs, the crash of cymbals, the beating of queer little pigskin drums. and shrill sounds from harsh and un- tuned flutes.
 All Work Suspended.
 No orthodox Chinaman works dur ing the holiday season unless his f. nancial condition is such that it Is absolutely necessary for him to do so. The time is spent in exchanging visits and in sitting about the festal board which is burdened with nuts, candies and imported wines and li- ouors with generous pots of fragrant tea. The Chinese women, as a rule do not participate in the festivities. The fathers take their children with them. however. and the hosts see that the little ones are burdened with toys and sweetmests.
 More than ordinary significance at taches to the New Year celebration this year. for it is possible that it will be the last to be held in accord ance with the old order of things. Among the many remarkable changes resulting from the revolutionary movement in China it is probable that the adoption of the western method Of reckoning months and years will be included. In fact, it is reported that the cabinet at Pekin already de- creed the adoption of the western cal endar. The effect of this change will bring the Chinese New Year celebra- ton on January 1, the same as in all other countries using the Georgian calendar.

The child who shows no disposition to move about and is apparently hap pier sitting still will grow up to be Slow-witted, heavy On the other hand, the baby who is always using its arms and legs will be intelligent, it's brain will work quickly, and 1t will without doubt be clever.

A sergeant in the Bavarian army was discharged the other day on ac- count of lung disease. It appeared that for several years he had been in the habit of drinking 20 quarts of beer per diem. No wonder his lungs were worn out. He must have spent about 14 hours a day holding his breath.

It is possible that there has been larger dances in Bisbee but that is doubtful and certainly Pythian Castle was never more crowded than it was on Friday night on the occasion of the first ball given by the Bartenders In ternational League. There were two hundred ribbons that had been pro vided for the men and these gave out early in the evening. Programs al- most reached a similar stage and the same is true of the pretty carnations that were there for distribution am- ong the ladies. The ball opened with grand march led by the C. and A band, which played a charming march air as the couples circled the hall broke and reiormen and then finally changed it's air from march to waltz and the hall became a still more ant mated scene.

GEORGIA IS NOW
O9 YEARS OLD
BIRTHDAY OF STATE WAS GEN.
ERALLY CELEBRATED BY
CHILDREN YESTERDAY.

Georgia Day, which was observed
II practically every school in the
state yesterday. marked the 18th
birthday OF the commonwealth Of
Georgia.
In nearly all schools special pro-
grams, conducted by the teachers of
various grades in the different schools,
was held between the hours Of l and
2 O'Clock in the afternoon, while the
state schools featured the great seal
Of he state OF Georgia in their ex.
ercises.
81 A complete history Of the great seal
tbs prepared by the Daughters of the
American Revolution and copies of
this history were furnished State
School Commissioner NJ. L. Britain
and he has warmly Endorsed the pro.
posed movement.
Georgia is the only state in the
lnion still using the old pendant wax
seal Of state, declares this history,
and for this reason the D. A R. his
torian declares it is a precious heir
loom and should be put in proper con-
dtion as il is impossible to read the
devices and inscriptions on the seal
| in it's present state.
The history OF the great seal is an
interesting one, telling how it was
adopted by a convention in Savannah
in October, 1875, and formally ratified
in February, 1777, during the govern,
orship OF Archibald Bulloch, and af-
terward changed to its present form
This change took place in February
1899, while General James Jackson
was governor, and was first used on
July 4, 1899. It has been in use ever
since except for a short time during
reconstruction da5s, when it was con-
cealed in order 70 prevent its destruc-
! ton.
