"I have leiteri here which remind

peace and plenty this year, but alas,
'poor old China doesn't teem ready
for it yet.' The drouth ended in
copious rains, which made the north

all because the sluggish old Yellow

situation and saved the lives 01
thousands of people who have been
drowned, but these projects meant
money to back them up, and the
Chinese government has no money
because its rulers arc carrying on
constant petty warfare between
' northern and southern forces, trying
to gain ascendency for the sake of
personal power and money for some
ambitious general. It's the saddest
. thing tq sec the way; China's gov
ernment is batted around between
different war lords, the one who has
the most money to pay the most
soldiers or to bribe the largest num
ber of officials being the one who
rules for the time being. And
while they amass soldiers on both
sides of the Yangtze river and cap
ture a few towns and loot the vil
lages, the people are dying because
of flood and famine. Selfishness

over, isn't it? .'-..
"Yesterday was the biggest meet
ing, or perhaps I should say, the
most particular '' meeting -of those
held so far, .The committee mem
bers each made a list of their' non
Christian friends who would be in
. tcrestcd in association activities, or
' who would be influential among
their own circles and could help
much to advance the organization.
. 'The civil governor's wife was in
vited and also the other . women
members of - her household. A
. ... prominent official in the days of the
g; emperor lives in Hangchow, and his
',; son's wife came in great dignity,
seated stiffly in her sedan chair, but
!, . not extravagantly , dressed. She sat
near the Victrola, which it was my
job to operate while the audience
was gathering. The formidable
neatness of her hair rather madev me
, feel bashful but she started to con
verse ' by asking if I could talk
- Chinese,, whereupon I felt better.
That question, at least, I could an
swer in the proper, polite way, hav
ing practiced it on other people, iso
I promptly replied. 'No, not at all.'
Of course, she came back with the
usual polite response. 'Oh yes, you,
you can: you talk it very well.'
. (When , you go out shopping at the
talk Chinese! you teel a warm glow
of honest pride. But after you have
been' here a year and z half you
know that it's simply Chinese polite
ness, and the proper thing to do is
to respond with true Chinese mod
esty that 'Not a little bit can you
talk.'" , .....

in a Hurry
For ml nTertlraiese, this old '
' homo-made remedy has no equal.
XaiUf and cheaply prepared.
You'll never know 7iow quickly a
'bad cough can be conquered, until you
try this famous old home-made rem
edy. Anyone who has coughed all
day and all night, will say that the
immediate relief given is almost like
magic. It is very easily prepared,
and there is nothing better for coughs.
Into a pint bottle, put 22 ounces
of l'inex; then add plain granulated
sugar syrup to make a full pint. Or
you can use clarified molasses, honey,
or corn syrup, instead of sugar syrup.
Hither way, the full pint saves about
two-thirds of the money usually
spent for cough preparations, and
gives you a more positive, effective
remedy. It keeps perfectly, and
tastes pleasant children like it.
You can feel this take hold instantly,
soothing and healing the membranes
in all the air passages. ' It promptly
loosens a dry, tight cough, and soon
. you will notice the phlegm thin out
and disappear. A day's use will usually
break up an ordinary throat or chest
cold, and it is also splendid for bron
chjtis, croup, hoarseness, and bron
chial asthma.
Pinex is a most valuable concen
trated compound of genuine Norway
pine extract, the most reliable rem
edy for throat and chest ailments.
To avoid disappointment, ask your
druggist for "2Vi ounces of Pinex"
with directions and don't accept any
thing else. Guaranteed to give abso
lute satisfaction or money refunded.
