Proposed Canadian
Loan to China Is
Still Undetermined
Dominion Officials Profess
to Know Nothing of Re-
ported Transaction; FL
nancial Circles Aroused
Special Dispatch to The Tribune


MONTREAL, Que, Sept. 24.-Cana-
dian bankers are reported in London
cable dispatches to have arranged a
loan of CD 100000 to the government Of
China. The news has caused fluttcr
of anxiety in both Canadian and Brit
ish financial circles, and Foreign Of
fee official is quoted as saying that the
British government is dismayed by the
proposed Canada banks loan to China
He says that if the Chinese government
chooses to repudiate the loan demand
ed they have no recourse, as they are
not supported by the British or Cana
dian government. He also declare
that the transaction is dangerous. as
the Chinese government is in q cha otic
condition and may waste money and
fail to repay the loan.
Inquiries made in London indicate
many interesting questions raised bv
the Canadian loan agreement. 1t is
assumed that the Canadian government
is no party to the Canadian banking
syndicate action. The Hong Kong.
Shanghai Corporation is one of the
British representatives of the interna-
tlonal financial consortium in China,
and this representative is responsible
for the statement that the position is
really governed by the fact that neither
Canada nor China is party to the con-
sortium. Therefore, neither would be
under an obligation to consult the con-
sortium. Canadian government circles
declare they know nothing of the trans
action. They can only suggest that the
Canadian government might conceiva-
bly, ask Canadian bankers to conclude
o further agrenemet without consulting
the consortium.
The Foreign Office official quoted
says cable information from Picking to
The London Times" was their first in
formation on the subject Colonial
Office officials expressed similar igno-
rance. The fact is that officials and
financial circles learned of the agree
ment for the first time through mes
sages from Peking and are only now
considering its possible political and
international aspects. 1t is assumed
that there is direct connection between
this Canadian agreement and the an
nouncemcnt that the Chinese govern
ment will on September 10 pay coupons
on Chinese government per cent gold
loan of 1912, which loan has first
charge on the surplus revenues of the
salt tax. The market feared that the
coupons might not be met.

COMPLETE WORK OF TODAY
Unfinished Tasks Simply Mean That
One Has Placed a Mortgage
on His Tomorrow.

Leave today's work undone and you
mortgage tomorrow. And tomorrow
may bring the big opportunity you
have been looking for SO long.
Try to keep tomorrow for yourself
Try to keep it free. Don't load it up
with work that should be done when
you leave your desk tonight
You never know what it may bring.
You never know what chances there
may be tomorrow you have 1t clear
to show somebody who can pay a
big salary what you can do.
Your days are important, every one
Of them. Each has its own work that
must be done.
Start every day with a clean sheet.
Say: 'This is the work that is to be
done today-that must be done to-
day"
Then do that work, and do not Leave
any Of 1t hanging over into the next
day.
Once fall behind IN your work and
your tomorrow will soon be mortgaged
for a long way ahead. That means
wage slavery. 1t means lack of 8
chance to seize opportunity-or to
soake opportunity.
Look forward to your tomorrows as
days of achievement-days in which
to plan and do new tasks-not to fin
ish old ones.
You will be glad to see them then.
You will be glad of the fresh eight
hours that can be employed in some
thing that is valuable and interesting.

MONOPOLY LOST BY GERMANY
American Chemists Are Now Produc.
ing the Rare Sugars Required
for Scientific Purposes.

Not least among the trtumphs Of
the new American chemical industry
has been the production of the rare
sugars, so long a German monopoly.
The sugars were called for by the
small hospitals, as they are required
in small amount in archaeological
aboratories-one of them, for IN
stance, being the most sensitive stiu
ulent Of typhoid growth, while 9th
ers serve in the detection of cholera
germ. The infinite care necessary to
prepare them in a state of absolute
purity makes their cost seemingly
enormous. The most expensive rare
sugar catalOgued is stated by Drug
and Chemical Markets to be dulcitol,
at 1915 a pound, while mannose is
worth $40 a pound. This is q deli
cate and delicious sweet derived from
mama. which is secreted in thin scales
from certain trees and shrubs, and
with which the children of Israel were
miraculously fed during their wander
ings in the wilderness. Nylose quoted
at 500 a pound, is made from the corn
cob: inulin Is obtained from the bulb
of the dahlia at certain seasons of the
year. Other rare sugars are-arfhi-
nose, at 800 at pound; levulose. $50
a pound and raffnose, S75 pound.

ORANG FEARED THE CAMERA
Photographers Presence of Mind
Probably Saved Him From Death
or Fearful Injury.

AS a rule orangoutangs, the f1ercest
Of the apes, are caught young and
tanned before they are shipped to Eu-
rope and the United States. One OF
these animals that arrived in London
came with the best of characters. He
was considered very tame, steady
going creature, and an expert was en-
gagged to photograph him.
The man entered the orangs cage
as he had entered many others. He
had not exposed many plates before
he saw that the animal was intent on
mischief He was a very powerful
beast, and the man would have stood
no chance at all if the orang had at
tackled him.
The mans only chance was to use
the camera as weapon. Making a
sign to the keeper to keep silent, the
photographer pointed his hand camera
at the orang and with slow and steady
step approached him. The keeper was
outside the door ready to open it; but
neither Of them uttered a sound. The
photographer was relieved to see the
orang gradually retreat and at the
same time to be able to rise from the
crouched and menacfng position he
had taken. Once the creature was or
the move the man knew he had a
chance. He succeeded in working the
orang around to the corner furthest
from the door, which the keeper had
silently and slowly opened. Stin point
ing his camera at the beast the man
very slowly backed out Of the cage,
the door was slammed to and he was
safe

EX-CzAR REAL JOY KILLER
Little Wonder Princess Didn't Enjoy
Wearing Ring After Hearing That
Gruesome Anecdote.

Ex-Czar Ferdinand Of Bulgaria al
ways had a great fondness for rings,
and his delicate, tapering fingers usu-
ally were loaded with rare jewels. A
Russian princess who was a guest OF
Ferdinand at dinner in Sophia once
admired especially ring that he wore
"a pearl surrounded by rubies.
"That ring pleases your" asked Fer
dinand, who had noticed her interest in
1t. And then, in the naughty tone
which was his wont, he added: "a
tear encircled by drops Of blood. Per
NIT me to put it on your finger
Leaning toward her, he continued,
nonchalantly:
ut is gift that has Just been sent
to me by one Of the most notorious
bandits on the Bulgarian frontier, a
truly remarkable man. He it is who
holds the record for the number of
hands he has cut off his victims. l
have no doSbt that he got this ring
from a finger just as charming as
yours"
The princess turned pale and Ferdi-
nand continued:
But don't be disturbed, madame.
This ring which 7 have the honor Of
offering you was given to me without
the finger"
The princess never knew whether
the car was serious or whether he
was trying to confuse her. She new.
er wore the ring.

GALLERY GODS" HAD POWER
Actors Respected Those Who Sat
Among the Clouds in Old Drury
Lane Theater, London

Nearly every American has at some
1m2 IN his career, generally the ear
'Ier part of it, been gallery god"
That is to say, he has seated himself
nigh in the topmOst gallery of a the
alter, to follow with tenseness the ad-
ventures of the heroine and hero
How he obtained his title of gallery
god is a matter that goes back a
great many years, to the old English
rrury Lane theater in London.
The theater was decorated in a
somewhat giddy manner with cupids
and cherubs scattered about in care
les confusion. To carry on the motif
"' airy summer days peopled with
liGhts0me creatures of fairy gardens,
he decorators painted the ceiling
bright blue, and then placed puffy
white clouds here and there to repre-
sent the sky, with the Sinking faces
Of wee angels and fairies peering out.
The gallery was built to get
money, and not to give any particular
comfort to those who paid their penny
or so to sit there, so that the heads
or the gallery sitters We're in reality
mr@ the clouds. The actors had
greet respect for this gallery, never
theIeSS, for its displeasure was mani
tested by booing in no uncertain tones,
and the combination of painted sky,
and the desire for the approval Of
the gallery provided the phrase "gal-
cry gods"

MUST USE FOUR LANGUAGES
Advertisers In Turkey Necessarily
Under Handicap That Amounts
to a Good Deal.

In order to advertise in CONSTANT
nople it Is necessary to use four lam
guages. The market is hard to cult
vate, but newspapers give good results
there. The population of CONSTANT
nople is very cosmopolitan, and all the
foreigners speak their own language
and read their own newspapers, writes
Trade Commissioner Eliot G. MeaEs.
To reach the public in general, aduep-
tisements should be published In news
papers of at least four languages.
However, the best results are OBJ
tanned by publication in Turkish news
papers, for, Oh the one hand, the Turk
ish population is most numerous, and
on the other the Turkish reader Is more
susceptible to the claims Of advertise
ments than are Europeans and Ar
menians. 1t has been found by expe-
rience that advertising in newspapers
gives very good results in CONSTANT
nopie, especially If it Is pushed Wig
orously
No advertising is carried on tram
cars. Street advertising is not pro-
tected by law and cannot be recon-
mended to foreign concerns. The CIR
ulatton of newspapers is not great.
French newspapers have an approx
mate issue of 5000 to 5000, Greek A.
900 to 1900, Armenian 1000 to 5000,
and Turkish 10000 to $1,000.

Burro Saw the Point.

One who knows says that some peo-
pie claim that animals can't reason
but if they were around burros awhile
like he was when he ran a burro train
up in Colorado they'd change their
minds
One of the burros fell down in
crossing a stream and he was loaded
with sugar and it took about fifteen
minutes to get him on his feet and his
load didn't weigh more than half as
much when they started out again
For months afterward that critter
always contriyed to fall down when
crossing a stream of water
1t didn't tighten his load any, for the
driver never trusted him with sugar
any more but he still had hopes until
they happened to Toad him with
sponges one day.
That cured him. - Los Angeles

PAINTED OVER COURT FINERY
Ruse by Which Nuns Had Queen De-
Pcteo as a Member of Their
RELIGIOUS Order.

Through chance discovery in the
garnet of a ducal palace in Madrid. a
e-hundred-y ear-old romance of a
wonderful Nelasquez has been re-
vealed. Hidden for three centuries as
a picture of a nun, this portrait Of
Queen Isabella of Spain. the first wife
If King Philip ", has recently been
restored in London.
In the disguised picture practically
nothing but the face and hands of the
original was left uncovered, and the
secret was first guessed at owing to
he paint peeing away from the nuns
hood, when there was revealed the
fr-n@e of a lace collar,
Princess Isabella of Bourbon was
married to Phillip in 1915, and in 1924
was staying in the convent Of the nuns
belonging to the order of the DeScal-
zps. AS 4 mark Of the kindness she
tllere received she presented the nuns
with this Yelasquez portrait of her
self.
Later Isabella wished to enter the
convent, but the pope would not con-
sent. The Inmates of the convent
called in a painter. and secretly in
structcd him to paint out the queens
court dress and the lace handkerchief
In her left hand, and to present her in
the complete garb Of a professed nun.

German "Tnoroughness.

Max Walter, head of a boys train
ing school in Frankfort, tells the fol-
lowing story by way of illustrating
German thoroughness:
A venerable teacher in one of Ger
many's preparatory schools was dis
tractedly ambling about his study one
day when he noticed stray piece of
paper Picking it up he saw that 1t
was a Latin composition from one Of
his devoted disciples.
On looking at it more closely he de-
tected an error which he had over
looked. Seating himself at his desk,
he dipped his pen in good red ink and
made the necessary correction. He
then folded the paper into a neat
roll, stuck it in the fire, and with it
lighted his pipe.

Better Weather Forecasts.

Weather forecasts for months ahead
will be possible within a few years as
a direct result of solar observations.
R. NJ. Stewart, assistant director of
the Dominion observatory, told the
Royal Astronomical Society of Canada.
The sun is the great influence over
varying weather conditions on the
earth, and recent observations Of l.
have led to the belief that observa-
tories will be able to predict with &C.
curacy the general trend Of weather
for six months or even a year ahead,
he said.
To be able to toretell the amount
Of precipitation and the general
temperature for several months in
advance may take so or even 100
years of observation, he added, but
expressed the confidence of the OBJ
servatory that this end would be
reached.

Arab Puts Comfort First.

The beautiful villas that remain in
Algeria are Moorish villas, for the
Arab does not care for things artistic
and comfortable that other races Of
the earth demand. If he were given
house he would first remove the doors
and burn them; he would next drive
hook into the facade to hitch his
mule to, and then he would abandon
the chimney-place inside the house
and build his fire in the middle of the
room, defiling all the walls with
smoke. His personal ideas of comfort
come first.
The Algerians are not like the
French. They are different in man
pers. customs, habits and morals, says
Charles Divin in the Century. Even
the Arab remarks it. and calls all peo-
pie who come from France Partisan
Romans"
