Thinking and Doing.

"The end of life" said Emerson,
as an action and not thought"
which leads us to remark how much
Importance we give to the thought
and forget the corresponding action.
This very thought of Emerson is
worth nothing unless it eliminates in
a deed. And the lesson now is. never
to have a thought that does not orig.
mate or eliminate in an action. A
thought apart from action is of no
worth. Thinking well and refusing
to do we'll is destructive Of character.
Teach that philosophy at school, and
you understand 1t, gentle teacher, and
II you don't stay home and wash
dishes. Saying nice things and doing
poor ones is the calamity Of life, from
which we should all pray to be freed.

Sad Fat. Of Chinese Widows.

Very few Chinese widows ever re-
marry. AS rule, customs Of society
do not 60 further, but in some parts Of
Fukien the self-destructiOn Of widows
in their devotion to their dead hus-
bands has assumed almost barbarOus
forms. For example, when man dies
his wife will generally declare her in
teDtion to kill herself to demonstrate
her faithfulness toward him. Then
the elders Of the family will cause a
high stage to be erected and invite
their relatives, friends and acquaint'
ances to witness the heroic deed.
When the appointed hour has come
and the spectators have assembled,
the lady will ascend the stage to hang
herself amid the admiration and ap-
probation Of the spectators. Then a
stone arch will be erected to her men,
ory, and the family will be regarded
as illustriOus for possessing such de-
voted wife.

viii Be Permanent Headquarters for
Representatives Sent to Italy by
American Business and FInan-
cia Institutions

ROme.-ThanISs to the generosity OF
italian financial and commercial inter
ests, the United States will have a
house of, its own in Rome.
The Palazza SalvIati, one OF the
famous group Of historic family pal
aces that line the Corso Umberto, for
merly the FIamInlan way, has just
been purchased by the big banking in
terests of Italy. rechristened LA Casa
delIAmerica" or "The American
House" and placed at the disposal of
all societies. organizations and move
ments that have for their object the
furthering Of commercial. financial, so
cial and Industrial relations between
the United States and Italy.
Banks Provide Money.
The project was planned by Minis
ter of Provisions Crespi, who through
his contact with American Food Ad-
minlstrator Hoover, became convinced
of the great mutual benefit to be de-
rived by Italy and America through
closer relations. The money for the
purchase of the palace was put up
by the leading banking institutions OF
italy.
The Salvati palace, which is near
the entrance OF the COrso Umberto
into Piazza Venezia, or where the
FIamlnian formerly led up TO the
Capitoline hill, is surrounded by the
other equally historic palaces Of the
Odescalchi and DOrvia families It's
interior furnishings and decorations
will be kept intact as far as possible.
A Permanent Headquarters.
The first floor of the palace will be
occupied by the central headquarters
of the Italan-American league, of
which Senator Rufini is president and
which has for its object promoting
every possible relation between the
American and italian peoples.
The second floor will be given over
to the offices of financial organiza-
lions that are especially Interested In
italian and American stocks and
bonds.
Still other portions Of the palace Will
be given over to the societies and or
CARNATIONS promoting interests along
special lines between the United States
and Italy.
In the future American manufac
turing, business and financial institu-
tions sending representatives to Italy
to establish relations WILL find perma-
nenta headquarters at the American
house and every facility necessary to
enable them to attain their ends.
