SURE OE HIS LOB

Solomon has great reputation
for wisdom
How do you suppose he got that
way?"
Maybe he had ample leisure to
cultivate his mind. Unlike modern
rulers he didn't have to keep one ear
to the ground all the time to find out
whether he'd die with his crown on
or soon be writing home for money"

that now and is becoming in many respects more like other countries.
 From Chunju I go out on trips of about two weeks duration teach ing Bible classes of women, At these times I stay in the Korean homes. These houses are made with a frame work of wood. with mud walls and straw thached roofs. They have no stoves. but the floors are heated with a system of flues, made with partitions of mud. Over the tops of these flues are flat rocks with a layer of mud ,.bove them and over that heavily oiled paper instead of flooring.
 There is no furniture, and every body sits on the floor. When make these trips I take with me a folding cot and folding chair, and the Koreans thing that we foreign CTS need lot of things to make Hss comfortable, and wonder why We can't lead the simple life like them, for when they travel all they have to do Is just go.
 "on these trips travel sometimes by narrow gauge railroad and more frequently by Japanese service car, which is small car cut in two and an extra seat put across, so that 1t Is
 
 Often l ride part of the way in jinrickshaw carried by two or four men, with no foot rest, so that have to sit cross-legged like tailor, and I frequently end my tourney by walk ing a mile or two to relieve my cramped condition. My load of be- longings includes my cot, chair box of food and cooking utensils. for I can't live as they do, entirely on rice, a suitcase of extra clothes and plenty of insect powder.
 When I go out on my teaching trips the women and children gather about me and make the most personal remarks in my presence in regard to my personal appearance. They never fail to speak of my blue eyes and light hair, and my long nose. (Their noses are very small and flat with no bridges.) They always ask my age, and are surprised that I am so old and not married.
 Their religion consists of ances- tor and spirit worship. It Is a re- ligion of fear and a constant en- deavor to propitiate the evil spirits, among the most formidable of which are those of water and trees and of the woods.
 There is only one pattern for the women's and children's clothes, which are made with full skirts on a wide band and little jackets with kimono sleeves
 The men wear white linen, full, baggy trousers, with long coats
 When the clothes are washed they are first ripped apart and are then laid on flat rock at the side of a stream, at the waters edge, and are beaten clean with paddle. They are ironed CD on a very smooth flat rock in the house, where they are beaten with a round stick until dry, which makes the cloth look like new. They are then sewed up again and are ready to wear.
 Children wear gaffy coIored clothes. the dye in which runs out and has to be renewed at each washing. Away into the night in Korea one may hear tho beating of the ironing sticks"
