LANTERNS IN CHINA.
OF All Sizes, Shapes and Prices. They
Are In Common Use.

OF All Sizes, Shapes and Prices. They
Are In Common Use.
Particularly gay and attractive are
the shops of the lantern vendors In the
Chinese cities.
All varieties of lanterns are to be
seen-the large silken ones three and
four feet high, gorgeously painted with
variegated colors, embroidered In gold
and silver or decorated with deep
fringe Of the same material. costing
from 500 to 5000 and used by the
wealthy mandarins and others. and
common small horn and paper lanterns,
used by the coolies. which cost one
sixteenth of dollar.
The mode of making horn lanterns Is
very ingenious; the horns are cut into
remarkably thin slices which, by
means of heat and pressure. are joined
together and formed into various
shapes; round, square, hexagon, octa'
gon, and some shaped to resemble an
hourglass.
It is usual for servants, after sunset,
TO carry before their masters large
lanterns made either of horn or highly
vanished paper. with the name, title
and dignities painted in large letters
thereon.
At the feast Of lanterns. which takes
place in the early part Of the Chinese
New Year, these lantern shop pro
prietors reap rich harvest, as II is
! customary for parents to make pres
ents of lanterns to their ehlloreh
brother to sister, friend to friend, In
ferior to superior, and vice versa.

principle of British naval strategy and
battle cruisers, an unknown quantity

New battle cruisers before the war
were not objects of pride to their

the voracity with which they con

popular and government harassed
with demands for a reduction in naval
expenditure had no reason to favor
