REMARKABLE ENTERTAINING.
The Host Furnished Everything for Hi:
Guests.
A young woman has conhded to a
writer in the New York Times a some-
whatextraordinary account of the man;
ner in which a wealthy and well-known
New Yorker treats' those who- are in
vited to the house parties at his suburb
an home. She was informed by a note
from her hostess that a carriage would
. call for her and her lug-gage at a certain
hour to take her to the ferry, where
Mr. X would meet and take charge
of her. At the ferry she found the en
tire house party, including matrons
with their husbands, young men and
maidens, assembled to be looked after
by Mr. X . The valet checked their
luggage, and "in each instance a round
trip ticket was returned with ; the
checks. At the house, in each room
the writing-desk was supplied not only
with an ample stock of letter-paper,
engraved with the estate name, but also
with a box filled with postage stamps
of various denominations, including
special-delivery ones. A long-distance
telephone, connecting with, among
other places, the station telegraph of
fice, made it possible to talk or wire all
over the country and quite impossible to
pay for the service. On the little guest
card in each, room, which gave the
hours of meals and the schedule of
mails and trains, was a little notice:
"Visitors are kindly requested not to
fee the servants." Finally, to cap the
climax, on Sunday morning a maid
brought to the young woman's door,
on a tray which was loaded with sim
ilar missives, a small envelope which she
proffered with the simple message:
"For the church box. It contained
money for the offertory plate and one of
these envelopes was left, with each
guest. .- '

by the use of Scott's Emulsion of
Cod-Liver Oil and the Hypophos

it is a scientific fact that cod-liver
oil is the most digestible, oil in ex

it is not only palatable, but it is
already digested and made ready
for immediate absorption by the
system. It is also combined with
the hypophospnites, wnicn

the tissues of the body, but
for the bones and nerves,

LI HUNG AND CHINA.
The Great Man's Relations with
the Common People.
Hms m Very Difficult Position to
Maintain and Is Too Pro
gressive for the Blow
Going; Celestials.
That was a strange collocation of a
single day's dispatches which told how
Li Hung Chang, upon his arrival at Pe
king, had been made minister of for
eign affairs and had been reprimanded
for omitting one or more of the proper
forms in paying respects to the dow
nger empress. It was known before that
the lady was a great stickler for eti
quette, thoueh in this she does not
differ from some Christian tovereigns
f her s-ex. She is a great stickler also
for more substantial things and is be
lieved to have done her full share to
ward getting the middle kingdom into
its recent scrapes. The conjunction of
reprimand and promotion would be
very incredible anywhere else, but it is
no more incredible mChina than tbmgs
(hat have indubitably happened, as, for
example, the quick succession of the
privation of the yellow jacket and its
restoration, followed by the bestowal
of a confidential mission which any
where else would denote a man whom
the king delighted to honor.
It is quite hopeless for an occidental
to attempt to penetrate the mysteries
of Chinese politics. The more the
iinadom is laid open by conquering in
vaders the less lo we understand wnat
s disclosed. The want of apprehension
eems to be shared by men who have
"riven their lives to understanding. For
1 generation or so Great Britain has
!een conciliating China nnd treating
Tapan with contempt, upon the theory
'hat China was a valuable ally against
flussian aggression. When Great Brit
ain had succeeoeu in alienating .Japan
'n the supposed interest of China, and
Japan had conquered China, it sudden
ly appears that it is liussiawhicn gets
he ultimate benefit of all the proceed
ings. For there does not seem to be any
loubt that the concession of a Chinese
lutlet for the Siberian railway has in
'act been made.
There is reason to doubt, however,
fhat I.i Hung Charjg has been mademin-
ister of foreign affairs. In the first
ilace there is no such minister and. in
deed, no such ministry; and in China
kthat is rather more than a deta-1. Of
the administrative boards which among
them mismanage the empire, not one of
them is specifically a department of
foreign affairs, and if they were it
would be a board and not an individual.
'Abroad" is as much ignored in all Chi
nese onicial arrangements as Mr. Mc-
Kinley would like to see it in the in-
ustrial exchange, or Mr. Bryan in
finance. In the next place the Teport
does not "take account of the." dead
weight of inertia that-the mandarin
lasscan and does oppose to any attempt
o assimiliate their country to the rest
of the world, or to put it in line with
modern progress The contempt of
mere ignorance, such as the untutored
Chinaman exhibits for foreigners, is
nothing to the contempt of Chinamen
tutored after the Chinese mode of edu
cation. L,i Hung Chang is an energet ic
person, but he is emite helpless aeamst
his inert resistance. We mav be quite
sure that a Chinaman who believes that
the isolation of China ought to be modi
fied is looked upon either as a harm-
ess visionary or dnnf-erous radical. JA
Hung Chang cannot be put in the
former class, and so he must belong to
the latter, in the course of his voyage
around the world he has expressed him
self in favor of fuller and freer tradn
with his-own country, and this is to tho
Trandnrirs a wt Tnc-'t f;arrn!no and
revolutionary. Thonrh the innovator
s an old man in the scale of human life
e is a mere boy in that of Chinese civ
lization and its representatives, who
count themselves some 2.000 years older
and "consequently wiser than he.- Har

Tamarisk a Durable Wood. .
Timber of the tamarisk or shittim
wood has been found perfectly sound
in the ancient temples of Egypt in con
nection with the stonework, which itf
known to to at least 4.CCC years old.
COLLECTORS. ' I
THE STAMP
Some enterpris i ng gentlemen in Sa
.moa have 1 proposed . to -take the. post
office and run.it as a business, by work
ing off unlimited quantities of postage
stamps upon the dealers and collectors
of the rest of the world. .
The Peruvian, government has real
ized a net profit of $19,950 from the sale
of the last commemorative issue. As
long as collectors keep on purchasing
these commemorative issues the South
American governments will find events
to "commemorate."
' The stamp dealers are getting over
the scare caused by the arrest of the
Washington clerk who was caught sell
ing postage due and periodical stamps.
Powerful influence is at work to save
him from punishment. A man has been
found who ,thinks he remembers giving
these' stamps to the clerk, and finally
the claim is made that the stamps ane
no good onyboto, being only proof
sheets.
Perhaps tba greatest Tarity turning
up the past year was a pair of two-cenrt
circular stamps of . British Guiana, is
sued in 1850, and they are probably
worth upward of $3,000. The stamps
were first found by a woman residing
in the colony, and were afterward ac
quired by a prominent Demerara, col
lector. A few weeks ago they were
purchased by one of the big London
firms for a wealthy English collector,
and may now- be said -to form the prin
cipal gean of this gentleman's mag
nificent collection. -FIG
U RES OF ALL SORTS.
Of the 51,000 breweries estimated to
be in the world 26,000 are in Germany.
The total value of gold in the world

ings devoted to education in the United
States is $95,545,681.
One hundred and twenty firemen are
required to feed the furnaces of a first-

A nail-makins' machine produces as

LITERARY LIGHTS.
Charles lleade once gave as a recipe
for writiDg novels: "Make 'em laugh;
make 'em cry; make em wait."
After waiting 1,900 years the town of
Venosa, the ancient Veuusium, where
Horace was born, has decided to erect
at monument to his memory.
Mark Twain, who is now in London,
is about to publish a volume of essays
under the title of one of them, "How to
Tell a Story," it will include the "De
fense of Harriet Shelley," which ap
peared in one of the American month
lies not long ago
Mr. Kipling is quoted as having said
recently that he counts the long novel
the . essential thing for a writer of
fiction. "Independent firing by marks
men is a pretty good thing, but it is the
volley-firing of a full battalion that
clears the front," he says in support
of his claim, -
Richard Le'Gallinne was married the
other day and such a move on his part
was received with much surprise by
his friends. Ever since the death of his
first wife he had carried out the pe
culiar custom of calling the attention
of his friends by little notes to the an
niversary Of her death and dilating on
the- distress which the sad event still
gave him. '

Highest Taxed Country.
Boumania is the highest taxed coun
try in the world. Every bottie of for
eign wina has to pay a shilling duty.
A case of whisky went from the army
and navy stores the other day. The
transport tax stamps and other duties
amounted to more than the price of the
whisky. There is a tax even on female
servants.
