The Chinese mother is very fond ol
ker children. She la happy in their
company and spends much time car
lng for them. Iu a Chinese family th
birth of a child Is a greater event than
with other orientals. Long before the
child Is born the mother performs rite
and ceremonies to propitiate the gods
that her child may be a boy. Aftei
birth the little fellovr Is wrapped Id
old rags and In winter is sometimes
put in a bag of sand sewed close
around its neck to keep the little on
warm. Great rejoicing follows the
birth if the child Is a boy; otherwise
there is an air of chastened disap
pointment But good Chinese parent
make the best of their little lassies,
becoming very fond and even proud of
them. I have known more than one
Chinese father to eshibit his toddling
wee girl for approval, though always
with the customary national verbal
deprecation of what belong to one.
Indeed, this evidence of excessive
courtesy may be found everywhere In
this strange land. It is good form to
Tllify what Is mine and laud what li
thine. "My good for nothing family
are all still troubling the earth with
their presence. How is your honor

MUMMIES.
Itac Tliat Do .Not Come From the
Tombs of the Eaat.
Many persons who have an interest
In archaeology will be surprised to
know that all the mummies to be seen
In museums have not been taken from
faraway tombs in Egypt or other eaut-
ern lands. Well preserved mummies
nave occasionally been taken from the
ruins of the cliff dwellers iu the moun
tain canyons of Arizona and in New
Mexico and southern California. These
mummiia. though very poor specimens
of the mummifying art, are coiiHidered
great treasures by Fcieiitists, twaiise
they give the anthropologist a vague
Idea of the strange people who bad the
earliest civilization on the American
continent. The best of them are al
most entirely ignorant of who the
Aztecs and Tolrees were, how they
looked and lived and why they Lave
been so entirely obliterated from the
face of the earth.
The reason for this ignorance is found
In the fact that no satisfactory remains
of the dead Aztecs have been found.
These people were crematlonlstx, and
they probably buried household effects
with the dead, leaving little or nothing
for the scientist to build a theory upon, j
Frequently a party of explorers In the
valleys of Arizona will eorne upon seal
ed jars of burned bone dust

WOOD YARDS.
Flowerx In the tshtide.
It is not unusual to hear a com
plaint that one's yard has no huh,
and therefore flowers cannot be raised,
But there are a large number of flow
ers that prefer nhade to sunshine in
summer. The begonia is of this clasn.
Those who have north walls or fences
may have great beauty during the sum
mer by setting out the different kinds
of begonias. Even the gloxinia, the
achlmenes and similar hothouse plants
bloom splendidly throughout the (sum
mer season when grown on the north
Bide of walls.
