NEW YEARS DAY IN CHINA
Occasion When Whole Country Il
Painted Red-Tlme When All
Debts Must Be Settled.

New Year is the national payday IN
China. All accounts must be squared
up at that time. and the man who
can't raise money enough to pay hie
debts has to go into bankruptcy. The
laws are such that the creditor can en-
ter the debtors house and take what
he pleases II there is no settlement.
To prevent such action families club
together and make all sorts Of com.
promises to keep up the business rep
utation of the clan. New Year is a
great day for the pawnbrokers: their
shops are crowded with people who
want to redeem their best clothes be-
fore the New Year. There are crowds.
also. who want to pawn other things
in order to get money to pay their
debts. Pawnbrokers receive high rates
OF interest, in which they are protect
ed by the government.
The Chinese paint the whole coun-
try red. figuratively speaking. on New
Years day. in more senses than one.
Red is the color which with them de-
notes good luck and prosperity. and
all the New Year cards and invita-
tions are on paper OF that color. Every
cflAd gets its New Years present
wrapped in red paper, and red inscrip-
tions are pasted over the doors of
the houses. These inscriptions bear
characters praying for good fortune.
wealth and happiness, and they are
posted on each side of the outer door
of the houses. New pictures Of Chi
nese generals are put on the front
doors and the houses are secured and
made clean.-Philadelph Inquirer.
