Sjtlem State Banlc L. K, PAG1L Pmat A WIDE AWAKE CHINK In October electric light was In troduced Into tho oxtonslvo Chinese suburb butweon the British conces sion and tho city. Tho credit of Its Introduction Is duo to tho enterprise of a romarknblo Individual, Chang Crlon, a native of Tungchow, In this district, who having, when In hum ble cI'cuniBtnnceB, won tho highest and most covoted literary rank of chunngqmin, or optlmus, In tho pal- nce oxamlnntlon,' has employed the Influence so acquired In promoting tho manufacturing Industries of his native town nnd vicinity. Ho Is an ardent supporter of tho principle thnt China enn nnd should manufac ture for horself tho fabrics now Im ported In such enormous quantities from abroad, and having, no cnpltal of his own, ho has hnd tho ability to convlnco men of high position and wealth to entrust him with means of putting bis vlows Into practice. Tho extent of his entorprlso mny bo Judged from what follews: At Tang-chln-cha, n suburb of Tungchowi with water communica tion to tho Yangtse, thoro nro al ready established and at work a cot ton mill of ovor 40,000 spindles for (lno yarn, with English machinery, employing 250 bands and cnpablo of turning out 30,000 bales annually, for which a good market Is Bald to be found locally. In tho other mills there Is machinery of Gorman, Amorlcnn, Japancso nnd soma of Chinese mnko. Thoro Is n mill for extracting oil from cotton seed, tho wasto product of which also finds u good mnrkot as a fertilizer ;a flour mill with a capacity of 7.500,000 pounds mutually; a dying factory for cotton nnd silk fabrics; a factory for spinning nud weaving silk; n canning factory for meat, fish, etc., and what will eventually bo a dockyard for building steam launches and tholr machinery, but nt present has only tho plant for bollermnktug. Just outside of Tungchow th'iro Is a printing establishment for books and maps. In the vicinity Is ulso n sonp factory. On tho Island of Tsung tulng, In tho Yiiugtso, under tho siuuo munagemout, there Is n cotton mill and a largo brick factory, tho latter at pruuunt employed In supply ing brluk for tho numerous buildings still In course of erection. In addition to these eleven es tablishments nineteen more are projected or In course of eroctlon; among them u cotton-wuuvlug fac tory Is already nullleluiitly udvauced to admit or tho Instruction of mill hands, who will lntur carry ou tho work. All tho factories nro well built, worked by mourn power, and lighted by oluctrloKy. Mr. Chang bus ulso an Interest In the Chluklaug Hour mill, which produces a brown Hour pronounced by n fondgn an alyst pure and nutritious, and which, us 1 have found makes excel lunt biead. The produce of tho Tungchow mill Is of llko quality. Old fashioned mlllstouos, turned by steam power, aro now used, but utoul rollers aro to bo Introduced. I am Informed by n Chinese gentleman, who Is well acquainted with all the above enterprises, that tholr textllo fabrics nro not equal to thoso of Ku ropoan, American, or of Japanese mills, but that thoy nro cheap and find u ready market among (he Chi nese.

GIVE EVEN PICKPOCKET A SQUARE DEAL Within tho last year this country has boon In touch with moro popular clamor against graft and Its myriad kindred ovlls than over before with in tho recollections of tho citizen. Tho philosophy of "tho squnro denl" has been preached nnd quoted, until, as in tno emotional popularity of tho "simple llfo," a good denl of the dotall of tho "square deal" has been overlooked. In tho practlco of tho squaro deal no degree of pushIvo or negative squareness enn Biiilko in full meas ure In olther of thoso positions under many circumstances It would be bard for tho best Judgo of human nature to make intelligent guoss whether tho disciple of tho squaro deal were honest or dishonest. In thousands of Individual circum stances uu active ugresslvencss In the operutlou of tho squaro doal Is Im perative If tho disciple of tho meas ure Is not to demonstrate his cownrd Ico and hypocrisy. Not long ngo I bad n luttor from an old friend whom I huvo grappled often In urgumoiit. Apropos of a subject on which wo had correspon dence, bo was Inclined to charge mo with too much Interest In tho affairs of my follow men In crowded city streets and public places. As an ox nmplo of my wrong uttltude, ns he saw It, ho recounted an experience In n street car. Ho put tho sltuiulon forcefully. "A man whom 1 know was In a street cur yosterday and saw a fol low trying to pick another man's pocket. Did ho Interfere? Not on your life' u might have meant n stny In Jail as a necessary witness In case of nrrost; while at the best It would have mount tho loss of a dny or two In court to tho neglect of hU busluuss!" Yet my friend writing this h an apostle of tho squaro deal. How ho malnUlua his position In his own mind whlio coinciding with hU othsr friend's point of vlow in this case Is moro than I can boo. . Provided this ultompt of the pick pocket was successful soma porson lost his pocketbook by theft. If my frlotid's friend bud Interrupted the proceeding tho orlmo would not hnvo been conunlUod and perhaps n crlm leal would have been put out or the temptation to othor offenses. Tho objsot lesson of tho arrest Indoed would lmo served Its purpose against llko crluiw In othors. Hut as another disciple of the squaro deal ho sat passive, looking an and without a worU. Ho bad de cided that It was nouo of his busi ness. Tho man woro both strnngera nud to interfere he might bo running several risks which ho did not want to take. Hut this was ono of (ho least squaro deals posslblo In llko circum stances. As a given situation In a public convoyanco It must bo as sumed that thoro Is a considerable uumber of young mou who would not have looked on at the act In sil ence.

I Keep Nerve It is nerve energy that runs the organs of your body. 1 ne storage battery is tlic nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord, and from this battery nerve force is sent out through the system of nerves, lo keep the body healthy you must have plenty of nerve force; it you have not, the organs work imperfectly, the circulation is sluggish, digestion bad, appe titepoor, kidneys inactive, and aches, pains and misery are ' the penalty. You can keep the system strong with Dr. Miles' Nervine. It assists in generating nerve "energy; it strengthens the . nerves and makes the whole ' system strong and vigorous.

Miles Medical Co., Elkhart, Ind THE posing that this victim of tho theft readily might hnvo risen to the res cue of tho other had their places in tho situation been rovorsed. Could oven tho chnnco of this being so ac quit my friend's friend of not carry ing out tho squaro dcul? For tho consistent observance of tho square deal a thousand given situations must present a thousand possibilities of ' interpretation nnd uctlon or Inaction. For cxamplo It Isn't a wlso thing always for ono to let bis sympathies go out In flood to ward a man who Is being thrashed by unother man where tho cause for tho trouble Is unknown to tho spec tator. In tho first plnco It Is rather hard for ono man to whip tho mnn who is In tho right of tho contro versy; nnd, n stho second proposi tion, tho moro squnro doal whipping ndlmlnlstored to tho nvorngo mnn Isn't such nu ovll to him or to socloty ns to prompt your unronsoulng, emo tional Interference. Hut what shall It avail, In your conception of high soclnl Ideals and In your ndhoronco to good citizenship and tho sacrednoss of the ballot, you attempt u square doal govern ment nnd yot deny your own squaro deal allegiance to it in tho capacity of citizen? There nro times whon the good citizen may bo Indignant at certain community burdens that are put up on him.

Tho man In tho street who stops the wind-blown hat of a fellow pe destrian, brushes it with his hand and restores It to the owner feels that ho has contributed to a com munity a squaro deal.

There Is a square deal ma chinery of the courts In which to try him; the state prison Is conducted on the square deal plan; the offender in tho square deal philosophy "has it coming." i But tho square deal elec tor and citizen merely has defaulted In his philosophy of the squaro deal selfishly.
