A curious custom was prevalent In

was obliged to wear a green cap--a
humility TO himself and a warning 10
others.
Those who made a hobby of getting
rid Of their Indebtedness by way %

costs steer clear OF China. Bank
ruptcles are almost unknown IN thar
country, as they entail immediate ex-
ecution.
similar drastic punishment used

To come nearer home. one need only
go back to a little before the Act Of
