TIME TO BALK.
The Chinsman Thought the Missionary
Was Going Too Far.

DIR. Frank Garrett. who has been a
missionary 10 China for the last seven
teen years, says that the first thing
you have 10 do is 10 get the Chinese
viewpoint. Like many OF their Gus
toms, IL seems TO US upside down. In
the United States II you call man a
liar you are likely 10 get into serious
rather complimented than insulted.
A missionary had established little
thurch somewhere I'm the interior and
put a native preacher In charge while
be visited some other mission points
When he returned he missed one young
man from the congregation. The ma
tive preacher said they had put him
out OF the church.
"Why. what was the matter7 What
did he do?" asked the missionary.
"He stole bamboo rod" returned
the preacher
why" answered the missionary, "a
bamboo rod is worth only about 10
cents. Don't you think you were a lit
tie severeT'
mo. no." and he shook his head In
dignantly. "We can't have a thief In
the church. The Bible says a thief
can't go TO heaven, and we couldn't
have any one In the church who
couldn't go to heaven. Besides, II
would give us bad name In the COM
munity."
"Well," returned the missionary. "the
Bible says liar can't go TO heaven.
Are you going 10 turn the liars out
tooY"
"Oh," cried the preacher, that's DIFF
ferent! Entirely different! We all
lie."-Youth's Companion.

Misnomers Of Chemistry.

One OF the strangest features Of
chemistry Is the fact that many Of the
chemical names are misleading and do
not describe the articles. Here are a
few examples: Oil OF vitriol Is no oil,
neither are oils OF turpentine and kero-
sene. Copperas Is an iron compound
and contains no copper.
Salts Of lemon Is the exceedingly
poisonous oIalic acid. Carbollc acid
In not an acid, but an alcohol. Cobalt
contains none OF that metal. but
arsenic. Soda water has no trace of
soda, nor has sulphuric acid Of sui
phur. Sugar Of lead has no sugar,
cream Of tartar has nothing Of cream.
nor milk OF lime any milk. German
silver has no silver and black lead no
lad Mosaic gold Is only q sulphide

TURKISH FORTS BOMBARDED

German troops in the north Of Po-
land have returned to the attack, CEN
tering their movement in the region of
the Skwa river near the Prussian bor-
der. An official announcement FROM
Petrograd says that the Germans fall
ed in an assault made with n division
of infantry and that the Russians ad-
NancinG in turn, compelled their op-
ponents at one point to abandon their
first line of trenches. The claim is
made also that further to the south
on the Pilica river, German forces were
put to flight.
The Petrograd version of the fight
ing in the Carpathians represents that
victories have been won at several
points. giving the Russians access to
northern Hungary. So far as is known
however, no considerable movement in
this direction has been inauguratcd
and Vienna insists that the Austrians
have gained successes in the mountain
fighting.
Forts Bombardcd
Some of the Turkish forts at the
Dardanelles were bombarded yester-
day by indirect fire from the gulf OF
Saros, but the warships of the allied
fleet did not attempt to enter the
straits. Two French battleships dam
aged in previous fighting proved to
have suffered so severely that accord
ing to a Paris dispatch they are to re-
turn to France and be put in dry dock.
