GUS Songs, Poems and Ed

Government.

Peking, Jan. f25.-Chinese monar-
chists are treating the passing of the
republic as a subject for humorous
chan. Editorials, poems and songs
discussing the republic lightly are now
the order of the day.
The following article from the Shun
Ten Shih Pao of Picking, is typical
of the attitude of the monarchists to-
ward what they regard as the defunct
republics 1--WE, the undutffuI sons
of Han, Man, Meng, Hut and Tsang,
beg to announce to the public that in
stead of ourselves being destroyed
and ann1hi1ated for our own sins and
Wickedness, our father, Mr.. Kuang
Ho, alias Min Kuo .(Repub1ic) has met
with a tragic end. Our father was
born on the LIST day of the list month
of the Gregorfan year 1912. He was
known TO be in excellent health; but
unfortunately in the summer of this
year he was suddenly attacked by a.
bad cold, which led to the fatal illness.
Renowned Chinese doctors, as well as
medical experts of Japan, Great Brit
ain, Russia, France and italy were in
stantIy onsl1lted--American experts
refusing to co-operate-but neither
injections nor prescriptions of these
doctors did him any good. His illness
continued to develop, and on the 18th
day of the 18th month he showed
signs of dissolution and suddenly sue
ctmbed. He passed away at 10 a. m,
on the 18th day. He closed his earth
~ career and went to sleep at the
mature age of four.
1--WE, undutiful sons, who failed to
give proper treatment to our deceased
father, have drawn upon our family a
great calamity; and we nave stamped
the ground with our feet and shout
ed our complaints to heaven in vain.
indeed, it is now impossible to bring
back our father even though we are
willing to sacrifice our lives a hun
fdred-fofd for him AS soon as his
death took place, we bound him up
properly and deposited his. remains in
a coffin, and then wore badges of
mourning We hereby announce that
on the 18th inst. the tablet of our
late father was placed in q shrine;
on the 18th inst. a funeral service will
be held; and on the 18th inst. at
a. m, the final iriterrnent will take
place.
eve, the undutifuI sons. beg to say
that we shall be grateful if the re-
mains of our, late father will be hon
o1.ed by the presence of officials, gen
try, scholars, merchants and military
men. We mako the above announce
rnent with deep sorrow.

spend his money sparing1y. but do
not give the impression that he can
support you on little or nothing. Keep
his home neat as wax, yet it is not
well to let him see you in the act OF

Take that time to prinnp up with a
fresh collar and dress. Smooth your
hair and tuck in a rose or bow of rib
bon at your belt.
It may look a bit frivolous. but the
men like it even though they deny it.
Don't insist upon his telling you what
kept him an hour late for dinner, for
you wouldn't get the truth anyhow if
he chose to keep it from you. It's. bad
policy to let him know he can deceive
you so cleverly and get away with it.

that you have no wish to attend en-

your own hreside. Not one husband
in thousand is content to settle down
to chimney corner existence until he
is well past the heyday of enjoying
