spirit of self ;ib;i.vnnent he feds obliged
to win 1 up his op:s:!e with the iihrase,
"Your stupid younjer brother, t-'o-aud-So,
bows his head to tha ground." The
. character for "stupid" is drawn for us
by two hieroglyphics, me.-mmg "mon
key hearti'd." To b. v.- to his l'ri'Tids is
also pictoriully. cxpres.-ed by a colloca
tion of "a head" and "turf," EuggeEiing
the act of bowing the head to the earth.
If his correspondent proposes to call
upon him h hast 11s to assure him that
"at the appointed hour, with bowing
hands, he will .v.,-;:it the time when his
excellency shall abase himself by driving
his chariot to his ofriee." His friend's
letter is "the revelation of his hand,"
and he takes pains to make him aware
that holding it "with washed hands he
had chanted"' its contents.
On expressions of thanks particular
emphasis is laid by the Chinese, and
with true Oriental instinct, in their cfi,rt
after hyperbole, they aro accustomed to
give a physical interpretation to their
mental feelings.
POWERFUL. IIYPIUinOLE.
For instance, a correspondent who
wishes to say that he is profoundly grate
ful, writes, "Your kindness is very deeply
engraved and enveined in my heart." If
ha hears of the illness of a friend "he
cannot help being hung u:i in FHspjnne."

the heart of the writer tied up, while at
the fame time he urrjeshinr "to take- care
of his person as a p:'arl." And on the
receipt of h' tier news he break's out,
"How i-hall I Lear t h i j-jy an. 1 pleasure!"
Having tinLshed expressing the object of
his letter, he winds up by "availing him
self of the opportunity to wish his corre
spondent all the blessings of the season,
and," if he is on the road to honor, "all
tho promotion he deserves."
But, if not ferocious, a sufficient lati
tude still remains to a Chinaman for the
development of much plain Fpeaking. It
is as possible to "slit the thin spun life"
with a stiletto as with a broadsword, and
in the most finished ieriod3 a Chinaman
finds himself quite aide to express either
withering contempt or remorseless hate.
But he has other ways also of giving
vent to his ill humors. The very punc
tilious rules of letter writing enable him
to convey his dislike by omission as well
as by commission.
Chinese is, it may be explained, writ
ten in vertical columns, beginning on
the top right hand corner of the page.
In ordinary circumstances each column
is completed to the bottom of the page;
bat long usage has established the cus
tom that, if the name or attributes of the
person addressed occurs, the column is
cut short, and the characters representing
these subjects of honor begin the next
column at an elevation of the space of
one or two diameters, as the case may
be, above the general level of the text.
It will now be seen what a ready weapon
lies to the hand of a Chinese letter writer.
To write "Your Excellency" or the name
of the correspondent's country or sover
eign in the body of the colnmn is to in
flict a dire insult upon him, and is equiva
lent to the expression of the bitterest
contempt in European epistolary style.

Democratic Opinions
Since Thajcr lias been duly in
stalled as governor, the faithful
followers of the Bo3"d banners are
full of opinions not flattering to the
acumen of the old soldier and
statesman that now occupies the
chair of state. Since the first flush
of disappointment lias died out, we
have interviewed a few of the lead-
ini lights as to what they thought
of the situation.
Col. Connor, hih in democratic
councils, was the first victim, and
when asked how the supreme court
decision struck him, he looked dis
justed and .v;ave vent to the follow
ing- remarks: "The supreme court
betrayed the democratic party and
showed lots of ingratitude on the
part of Ed Carnes and Judge Nor-
val. I lose no tears on the ousting
of Uoyd, yet as a democrat I con
sider the w hole thing an outrage on
the democratic party."
Charley Grimes, the accommodat
ing clerk to the county judge, says
his faith in democracy remains un
shaken. "These temporal' set
backs should be expected. I don't
condemn anybody."
Hon. William Neville, claimed by
some to be of German parentage,
yet with well known Irish tenden
cies, says: "It's all right. An
alien ought to be ousted. I am
fornist the furriner eve-- time."
Judge Archer is one of the faith
ful that was baptized that way. He
don't mean to be an everyday dem
ocrat, but be can't help it. The
judge is of the opinion that Bo3d
was treated as well as he deserved,
since he betrayed the party and ig
nored its pledges which have been
renewed annually for thirty years
as relates to corporations. "When
it came to subserviency to corpora
tion influences I always thought
we had a cleaner record than the
republicans, but now we are sacri
liccd. It is plain that a pledge to
the people now would only be
laughed at by them. Of course, I
am norry for democratic defeat, but
I only blame the author."
A prominent democratic official
says: "Boyd was elected by whole
sale fraud in Omaha, and I am glad
he is out. ; It is just retribution."
A well known business man saj-s:
"I am a democrat, yet I believe
Uoyd was elected hy fraud, and if
he is not a citizen 1 am especially
glad to see him bounced."
F. K. White Kays he has no
opinion and was surprised at the
result.
Col. Matthew Gering: "No sir, I
have nothing to say."

The residence of W. II. Gates got

between a tiny speck of llame and
the contents of a gasoline can. Mr.
Gales was I'l'in:-; the tnnl: of his
gasoline siove, supposing that he
had enlirel3' extinguished the llame
before doing so, when he siood a
moment laler in the midst of a
buiiiing lhiuii he discovered his er
ror. He got out of Ilie room as rap
idly as possible, gave the alarm of
lire and then got his ch i hlren out of
bed to a place oi safely. I 3' this
time several persons, arrived on the
ground and l3r hard work for a
short time succeeded in mastering
the situation. The loss will amount
to about 75, one-ihird of the
amount being" for repairs on the
house. The insurance compni'
will have a chance to ;;iy the bills.
It was a close call for all concerned.

The Iuty of ITip C!inr:l to the rtor,
I do not hesitate to .s:ry that the de
velopment of the power of self help, sell
respect and pelf dependence can be and
should be the work of the Christian
church in all her branches. If Chris
tianity cannot, to ihis extent, leaven tlu
masses of the wae workers, it has failed
and, at least temporarily, must continue
to fail. The wild ruin resulting from
that failure mav recall the church 01
Christ to a field that her faithles3 dis
obedience has led her for a time to aban
don.
She believes in the value of man, for
in lam, be he never so fallen, she sees a
spark of everlastingness. She professes
to accept her blaster's commands as di
vine laws binding on herself. His words
and acts are perfect' plain; he never
contemplated the abolition of all pover
ty, but he did distinctly command that
men should, t?s the3' valued his gospel or
professed obedience to himself, draw
near to each other, forgetting and ignor
ing those tilings that for a short time
made them to differ.
He declared that the innermost and
eternal verities of our nature all men
have in common, and that his followers
were to make much of these, while they
were to make less of their differences of
possession and attainment. Weakness,
failure, povertj were to draw us to our
brother, not drive us from him, for in
the prevalence of these drawing, uniting,
loving forces over the sundering and
disuniting forces lay the hope of our
race he called it the coming of tiie
kingdom of the Son of ifan. Rev. Dr.
W. S. Rainsford in Forum.
Trivialities.
It i3 not always easy in any sphere to
discriminate between the trifling and the
momentous. It is often a matter of com
parison, and judgment and experience
are needed in the selection. Trifles are
not to be confounded with details, which
are often most important. Neither are
things necessarily trifling because the3'
are small. A kind look, a gentle warn
ing, a cordial greeting, a slight service
are sometimes despised as trifles, when
in truth they are signs of a generous and
kindly nature, and carry untold blessings
to their recipients.
Many little things are far more im
portant than what we imsscall great
ones: they may indeed be the true reali
ties, while the others may be insignifi
cant. If each one will faithfully examine
the meanings and purposes of the various
spheres in which he moves, and endeavor
conscientiously to make them first in his
heart and life, the trifles will sink into
their proper and subordinate place.
New York Ledger.
A modification of what is known as
the Australian ballot plan is in force in
England in the election of members of
the house of commons. This regulation,
however, is not permanent there, as it is
here in the states employing this system.
An act of parliament is passed annually
to provide for the method of voting.
