It appears that when one has lived In China for some lime and studied Its Institutions the one thought that strikes him Is the fi-ellng of responsi bility that pervades every phase of Chinese life. This sense of responsi bility mukes useless the ordinary ex cuses that weigh with American or European. Two men were gambling In un ob scure part of one town, in a room hid den away from observation. A dis pute arose over tin* game; It ended In a light, and one of them got a fatal stab. It was 2 o'clock In the morning when the Incident took place. The whole city was asleep, and the tlpao, the headman of ttie ward, und his family were In bed, so that he was en tirely unaware of whut wus going on. His protestations were received with u sneer and with the remurk, “Well, you ought to have known.” “Ilut how could I?" he asked. “Never mind, now,” was the official answer: “that Is your business. The ward Is In your charge and you are the responsible person to look ufter IL” With that he was thrown upon hla fnce and a couple of sturdy llctors, who hud been looking at him with hungry and expeel ant eyes, proceeded to administer with their bamboos a lesson in the art of ruling a ward that would keep him in a recumbent posi tion for at least a week to come.—Ex change. x~x><~x.x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~:~:~:~x~xk~xkk~x~x~x~xkx-x~X“X~X; X $ Merchants Drug Co. | 4 Northeast Corner 24th and Cuming Streets X I - I X Specials for Friday and Saturday A 40c Bottle of Hinkle Tablets... -—19c X y 35c Bottle of Lilly’s Liquid Soap._.24c y 4 $1.50 an Ounce Perfume.74c % ♦{• $1.00 A.
