MY SHIP8.
tFrom "Maurlne."
IF all the ships I have at sea
Should come o-salling home to rne,
Ah, well, the harbor could not hold
Bo many sails as there would be
If all my ships came In from sea.
IP half my ships camo homo from sea
And brought their precious freight
to me.
Ah, well, I should have wealth as great
As any kin who sits In state
Bo rich the treasures that would bo
In half my ships now out at sea.
XP Just one ship I have at sea
i Bhould enme a-snlllng home to me.
Ah, well, the storm clouds thfn might
frown.
For If the others nil went down
' Still rich and proud and clad I'd be.
If that one ship cnino duck io me.
IF that one ship went down nt ea
And nil the others came to me
Weighted down with gems and wealth
untold,
'With elory, honors, riches, sold.
The poorest soul on earth I'd bo
If that one ship came not to me.
OH, skies, bo calm I Oh, winds, blow
all my ships safe home to mo,
But If thou sendest some a-wrack.
To nevermore como sailing back.
Bond any all that skim the sea
But bring my lovo ship home to me.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox.
TAKING "DOMESTIC Life of the
Orient as Compared with Do
mestic Life of the West," Ng
Poon Chow Chinese editor and lec
turer, gave the Berkeley (Cal.)
Hillside Club something to ponder
over the other day. He said, In part:
"As wo Chinamen understand it,
love Is a hallucination, a delusion,
intoxication, mirage in the desert of
passion, a perverted product of a
deluded brain, a disease, and a most
deadly contagious one, a kind of de
mentia Americana. It is a symptom
of a disordered brain, as a night
mare is a symptom of a disordered
stomach.
"Wo Orientals have no use for
lovo, emotion or tender passion in
marriage affairs or any other affairs.
Wo are not sickly, bentiuioutal ciea
tures, but cold, philosophical, fatal
istic beings. We do not know, wo
do not recognize any lovo, strict or
free.
"In these matrimonial affairs you
Americans go at it blindly. In all
other things, oven at the most incon
sequential ones, you follow reason;
but in the most important of all
life's affairs, marriage, you follow
the blind impulses of the reason-defying
emotion of passion.
"You throw deliberations, logical
conclusion, reasoning, all the prod
ucts of the matured brain to the
winds, and, rushing along under the
lnfluonco and stimulation of one of
the by-products of passion, which,
for a better name, you term Ioto,
you come to grief on the shoals of
matrimony. To the Oriental mind
such a course leads only to disaster.
"Wo ndmlro the American people
for their Intellectual attainments,
their material progress; yet wo can
not but marvel at you, wise as you
seem to be, permitting yourselves
to be led and guided by the mischie
vous, brainless kid you call Cupid
In tho most serious affairs of life.
Now, sinco marriage Is arranged In
Btich a hnp-hazard manner, It Is no
wonder you call it a lottery and so
many draw blanks.
A Means, Xot an End.
"In China marriago is regarded as
tho means, whllo in this country it Is
tho ond. It somotlmes ends In a
surprisingly short tirao. Now, sinco
marriage is tho means for tho con
servation of tho human raco, It fol
lows that It Is not for tho conven
ience of tho man nnd woman con
cerned. Individual concerns, pleas
ure, convonlonco and happiness are
merely Incidentals and not tho sum
total of tho purposo of marriage. Tho
parties assuming tho marriago state
nro moroly performing tho necessary
functions of life. Onco assumed It
Is final, and thero Is no way out of
It but death,
"To tho Oriental marriago is ah
soluto and not n trial. Wo marry
because we must; you marry bocnuso
you will. Wo marry becauso wo
hold It an oWtentlon to our ances
tors and a duty to our po3t3rItj; yo;
B ..'.. r Ti .f 7" J. 1
marry becauso you fancy that you
have found your affinity.
"In China no life career Is con
sidered a success unless a marriage
state Is entered into finally and truly.
A man Is no man until ho Is mar
ried. Though a Chinaman bo born
a bachelor, he Invariably dies a mar
ried man, provided he lives to a mar
riageable age.
Divorce Unknown.
"To the slow-thinking Chinese
marriage will not last for a day or
n venr. but for all time. It will last
for better or for worse In truth; It
sticks closer than a brother through
all tho span of life. Divorce is un
known and trial marriages much less.
"You regard marriage as an affair
of the heart, and by logical conclu
sion you are bound to follow the
whim and fancy of ever-changing
emotions In choosing socalled life
partners. We pay more attention to
its negotiations than you exert in
tho search into the title of farm or
lot with a view to purchase.
"In this deliberation we do not for
a moment take Into consideration
the wishes or desires of the young
people Immediately involved; conse
quently our young people have ab
solutely nothing to do In their mar
riage arrangements.
"In a Chinese marriage absolute
Impartiality Is extended to all parties
concerned; either party can take tho
Initiative In negotiating for mar
riage, while In America a square deal
Is denied the girl. The young man
has the initiative and chance to
choose, while the young girl has no
chance at all.
"Your method Is unequal, partial
and unjust, for you deny tho woman
privileges that aro her right. In our
marriage ceremony we are also far
ahead of you, for we do not enjoin
the woman to obey her husband,
neither do wo ask her to love him.
For to a civilized being the one
is just a Irksome as the other."

The New Ribbon Comb.
Since the fashion for wearing rib
bon buttonholed through tho hair has
becomo popular some clever person
has Invented a comb to save trouble.
It Ts of shell or Imitation, is shaped
In a circle, and is slipped into the
hair by a group of teeth in the cen
ter of front and back. The rim of
the comb Is very fragile and Is the
the col or of the hair. There are
buttonholes through It and through
them ribbon Is put.
In arranging It, lace the ribbon In
and out of tho holes before putting
the comb In tho hair. Make a large
bow at tho left side or a rosette on
each side. Do not have one in the
front and back.
Then push tho comb Into the hair
around the center of the head, and
you have no Idea how attractive the
effect is.
You can use any color of ribbon to
match tho costume. It Is an especi
ally pretty hair dressing for autumn
evenings and need not be kept for
special occasions. It Is not too
dressy for one's own house.
