CHINA GETS DUTY B.. INCREASE FOR HER
 WAR DECLARATION

Picking, Nov. 30.-~A commission IS busy endeavoring to fix the amount of the import duties on various artl- cles brought to China, in order to bring the charges up to an actual } per cent, which is the sum China will be permitted to realize as one of the Concessions for it's declaration of war against Germany. Many tangled questions face the commission, and it is likely that a temporary schedule will be adopted, as permanent lists probably can not be compiled in less than a year. China lis so badly in need of the customs money that temporary increase seems likely to be arranged.
 Russia has taken the position that the increase in the tariff is to apply to goods entering China at maritime ports, and not to those crossing the frontier. This interpretation of the agreement of the entente allies IS un- expected. So far Russia is alone in resisting the increased rates on goods entering China by land. Japan
 France, England and Portugal all have common boundaries with China
 and might claim exemption from the increase on land imports as justly as
 Russia. ] Much discussion has been indulged
 in by the commission, in an effort to
 arrange customs rates which will be
 charged to Germany, Austria, Turkey
 and all non-treaty; powers.

Be on the Lockout for It and Then
 Take Advantage.

Opportunity knocks at the door more than once. She knocks at the door of everybody, the rich and poor, tho sick and well.
 Very often the poor man answers tho knock, but is unable to nurse the situation, and therefore, nothing fruitful is gained from her visit.
 Sometimes opportunity comes to the man who is ailing from general rundown system, man unable to get about with the vim he ought to for one of his years. Opportunity does not wait, but hastcns to the door of a smile and take advantage of her proposition. She may come back to the man who was dragging himself around but unless he corrects his condition the same thing is going to happen.
 The results of being unable to meet an opportunity is just one step farth- CT down the hill. Being able to meet an opportunity is boost to. the top.

THE OLD LADY TALKS
MOUTH PATRIOTS

By Edith Barnard DelanO of The Vigilantes.
 "There's two kinds of mouth-pa- triots," said the Old Lady as she pushed her spectacles up on to her forehead and looked out of the win dow.
 "Look at those folks over there get out of their chairs and stand up and take their hats off, just because the
 Boy Scouts are passing with their flag, playing the Star Spangled Ban ner on their trumpets! Don't it make your heart jump inside of you! Can't you just feel how those men thrill when they sing the first two lines of lit and hum the rest. and make believe they're remembering it just like the boys do?
 . "Ever hear a better speech than that one down at the church the other night by the captain of the home guard? Didn't he look grand in his uniform?
 ooh, I ain't saying thing against that kind of mouth-patriots! But I can't help wondering how many of these men complain when meatless
 day or wheatless day comes around!
 The men-they're willing to be the shouting kind of mouth-patriots-and nobody planes them. But-when it comes to bein' the eating kind-well, as l said. there's two kinds of mouth patriots!"

SUPERSTITIONS OF
 CHRISTMAS ABROAD

We of the new world and the mod ern customs are always deeply inter- ested in any quaint beliefs or unusual mannerisms of the countries across the Atlantic. Most particularly have the habits of England and France held us: the former because she is our mother country, and the latter because of the unquenchable dear memory of Lafayette, and more recently because of that same spirit so gloriously up held today by Frances noble sons. And this holiday time finds us with our eyes turned thitherward for more poignant reason-for there aren't many homes that cannot claim a son or brother Over There"
 And it is we'll to know some of the homely, sweet little superstitions which prevail among the people of our allies.
 In England and in Scotland the saying goes that it is unlucky for any body but a brunette to first cross the threshold on Christmas morning.
 To bake bread on Christmas day is praiseworthy. eand loaves baked then will never gRw moldy. In these times of scarcity of flour, the poor loaves do not stand half chance to mold!-
 Woe to the housewife who on this day turns a mattress bodes ill luck for the whole year.
 superstition which had it's origin in Devonshire tells us that. it is bad form and i'll luck indeed not to wish the bees good morning and compli- ments of the season. On Christmas eve the hives are decorated with sprigs of green and a bit of red rib bon. 'Tis also said that bees sing all night on Christmas eve. But bees are rather perpetual singers anyway.
 The graceful traditions prevail. in Northern England and Wales. that the birds and beasts have some mystic connection with the Nativity. Hence, the farmers and landowners purchase sheaves of oats from little boys who sell it as our boys sell holly. These bundles are placed in convenient high nlaoes in trees and fences, that the birds may partlake The cattle. sheep goats. and even the pigs, are all given double the amount of feedings on Christmas morning.
 In Lyons, France at the rounding hospital, very pretty custom is to welcome the first baby that arrives with special honors-a beribbonee cradle, padded basket. soft clothing solicitude and a bestowal of gifts anc careful attention. This is done 1T expiaton of the poor welcome giver to a Wee Child of Bethlehem 20 cen turies ago. and beautiful though it is.
 Tn some provinces in France it is considered bad luck to cross "a strange threshold on Christmas Day.
