TRAVELING IN THE ORIENT.
Mrs. R. S. Brouse Depicts Her Ex-
periences in the Far East.
Tokyo, Japan, Oct. 1.
We left Hong Kong on September
23rd on the Empress of Asia for Ma-
nila. The boat is over five hundred
feet long, eight stories high and has
four decks. It has a capacity of 1900
passengers and carries a crew of 580,
which literally made it a floating
town. In another way it is like a city,
as it was impossible to become ac-
quainted with any great number. But
the service was excellent, and it seem-
ed that the most we had to do was eat.
Tea and toast were served in our cabin
at 6:30; first sitting for breakfast at
8:30 and the second at 9 o’clock; boul-
lion at 11; tiffin (luncheon) at 1 p. m.;
afternoon tea at four and dinner from
7:30 to 8 o'clock. At Nagisaki the
vessel coaled. Owing to the size of
the Empress we were compelled to lay
out about ten miles and the coal was
carried out in boats and baskets by
men, women and children and in this
way 4800 tons of coal were taken on
board in ten hours.
We were at first refused a landing
at Nagisaki, owing to the prevalence
of cholera in portions of the city but
after considerable wireless communi-
cation we were informed that the
members of Tour 11 could land. We
went ashore at 10:30 a. m. and were
met by some missionaries who took us
around the city in autos and in the
evening we were given a reception at
the college. The mayor and all the
city officials were there in all their
glory, as well as the wives of the of-
ficials. Most of the latter cannot
speak or understand a word of Eng-
lish and it was necessary to converse
through an interpreter. They were
all very nice and gave each one of us
a tortoise shell ornament and a pack
of post cards of views of the city.
Nagisaki is a very busy place. It
has many iron furnaces and ship
building plants. The boat I came over
on and the one I will return on were
built there. From Nagisaki we went
to Beppo then to Oetio, where we
were met by more officials and taken
around the city. It was a nice, cool
day, the first we had for some time,
and we certainly enjoyed it.
There has been considerable sick-
ness in our party. One of the girls in
Tour 11 was left in the hospital at
Kobe. I have been in perfect health
on the entire trip, not being troubled
with even a headache.
Landing in Manila a few of us were
taken in hand by several missionaries
and taken to their homes for lunch,
and we certainly enjoyed the home
. cooking. Manila is a beautiful city,
and our party had beautiful rooms at
the Manila hotel.
During our stay of four days in
Hong Kong our party was divided and
sent to four different hotels. I stayed
at the Peak hotel, 1438 feet up the
mountain side. A finicular railway
runs up the mountain, seemingly
straight up, and it takes fifteen min-
utes to make the trip. Most of the
residences are built along roads lead-
ing from the railway. Some of the
stone walls are two hundred feet high
and one is led to wonder how they got
the stone up those awful hills, and
then marvel at the fact that they were
all carried up by coolies.
The first news we received at Hong
Kong was of a rebellion at Canton,
and that it would be unsafe for us to
go there. Naturally we all felt very
much disappointed but on Monday a
missionary came to Hong Kong and
said we could make the trip by boat,
as the railroad had been torn up.
After signing a paper relieving Cook’s
agency of all liability for our safety a
number of us decided to go and char-
tering a steamer left at eight o’clock
in the evening, reaching Canton the
next morning at 6:30. We sailed un-
der the English flag and had a com-
fortable trip.
Canton once seen will never be for-
gotten. Its streets are so narrow they
can’t even get through with a sedan
chair. A person can walk in the mid-
dle, stretch out their arms and touch
the wall on both sides. I was glad we
did not have to eat there, as there is
not an English or American hotel in
Canton. Crossing the river at Canton
we went to Shimeen where there is a
good hotel. At Canton we visited the
various industries, such as the pearl
workers, king fishers, jewelry works,
saw them make silk as they have
made it for thousands of years. All
the work is done by hand, not a bit of
machinery being used. We returned
to Hong Kong Wednesday; the next
day went to Macao, a Portugese
city in a different direction. We saw
them make opium and a church over
750 years old. The old wall around
the city has been torn down and a new
highway built in its place. As the
wall was forty feet thick the highway
is naturally of that width and it looks
odd to see such a wide roadway in
that place.
The convention will open in a few
days and as soon as it is over it will
be homeward bound for all of us, so
that it won't be long now until we will
be home again.
A Salad Hint.—Sprinkle a little
sugar or a little salt over apples
which are to be used in salad, and
they will remain white instead of
turning brown. In this way the salad
may be mixed some time before it is
to be used.

BROUGHT MEMORIES OF HOME
How Visitor to London Zoological Gar-
dens Held Converse With Lonely
Tibetan Yak.
The shaggy old Tibetan yak at the
“700” died some while ago and a new
yak occupied his shed and inclosure.
Yesterday a visitor stood watching
the yak munching at a truss of hay in
his manger. He called the yak and it
took no notice. Then, having read
Hooker's “Himalayan Journals,” he re-
membered the calls of the Tibetan
maidens when they bring the yaks
home at sunset.
The visitor uttered the call. The yak
dropped a mouthful of hay, gave a
deep grunt, and came shambling to
the bars of its stable. The visitor pat-
ted and fondled it, and grunted yak
language and it licked his hand, and
when he left the yak house it ran out
of its shed and followed him around
its large barred inclosure.
He returned later and found the yak
still restless. It had deserted its meal;
it paced the inclosure and taade plain-
tive noises. The visitor gave the Tixe--
tan girl’s call again, and aguin the yak
ran to him. “Good heavens!” cried a
stranger, “how do you tame ‘z00’ ani-
mals like that?” He was told the se-
cret.
“Poor old yak, poor old feilo x," said
the stranger. “How can we guess what
chords you have touched—svhat memo-
ries of snow and ice, and praying
wheels and idols, of Tibetan girls with
turquoise ornaments in their praided
hair? Look how troubled the old yak
is—it isn’t fair to give home-sickness
to prisoners at the zoo 1"—London
Daily Mail.
EXPLAINS ACTION OF NODDING
Indication of “Yes” and “No” a Trait
Common in Humans and the
Lower Animals.
Before a child learns to say “yes”
or “no,” he instinctively nods his head
—a haughty, condescending up-and-
down—to show that he approves, or
a vigorous shaking from side to side
when the imperious will has been
crossed. Later on, as he seems
to show a preference for this way of
expressing himself, it is often neces-
sary to remind him that he can speak.
Many of us may sympathize with
the man who said to Darwin, “Your
ancestors may have been apes,” but it
cannot be denied that we have many
things in common with the other
species, .
Watch a young animal ready to re-
ceive food. With eager eyes and
mouth open it makes quick, forward
movements of the head. When the
food is not acceptable a tightly
clenched jaw and sideward motion of
the head serve to keep the mother ani-
mal from forcing food upon it.
So after all these centuries man's
mouth is still relaxed when he nods
“yes,” but there is a strong tendency
to clench his teeth and even close his
eyes when he shakes “no.”—Exchange.

He Saw Very Well.
I had employed a piano tuner for |
several years who was blind, writes a
correspondent. One day he brought
another man when he came to tune the
piano, asking my permission to teach
him some things about piano tuning.
i left them in the parlor by them-
selves and when they had finished, I
was dressing to go out.
Knowing they were blind and rather
than keep them waiting, I went in to
pay the tuner in rather scant attire.
I remarked to the stranger, “It is nice
for you blind people that there is
work like this for you to do.”
“Qh, madam,” he replied, “I'm not
blind; in fact, I see very well.”
I nearly died and fled from the room.
From a One-Armed Man.
The triumph over the disability of
a lost limb is not only exemplified in
the case of the one-legged cricketer.
“There is no need to be downhearted
about a lost leg or arm,” writes a cor-
respondent. “I have lost my left arm
and can do practically everything that
a man with two arms can.
«I can tie my tie as neatly and
quickly as I ever did, lace my boots,
ride a horse and bicycle, drive a horse
and trap, drive a motor, play billiards
{using a block of weighted wood with
three groves in it as a rest), golf,
hockey, tennis and swim quite easily.”
—Lcndon Chronicle.
Practical Sympathy.
James Shaffer of Uniontown, Pa.,
struck a foreigner who made disloyal
remarks and was fined $10, but the
money was paid by ten members of
the local Christian church, who on
their way home happened to stop in
the burgess’ office. Each of the men
planked $1 down on the desk of the
official and the case was ended.

G0 HEAL THE SICK
This Man Is Leading Sick People
Back to Health.
His Fight Against Old Age, Weakness
and Disease.
Fifteen years ago H. H, Von Schlick
of 210 Third avenue, Pittsburgh, Pa.,
was unknown. Today millions of happy
people bless and praise him as a bene-
factor. They are grateful for new
health and freedom from sickness and
disease.
Mr. Von Schlick is now in the win-
ter of life. He has ruddy cheeks,
bright sparkling eyes and the snap
and vigor of youth. Twenty years ago
he was down and out, physically.
Then Von Schlick met Boris Maro-
keff, an old Bulgarian friend, who |,
gave him a Herb Tea. - Von Schlick
recovered his health. He was a new
man in mind and body.
This Bulgarian Blood Tea was a
great medicinal discovery for heal-
ing the sick. Von Schlick obtained
the secret formula and process for
making this Bulgarian Blood Tea.
The roots, barks, leaves, herbs, ber-
ries and flowers grow in forests,
fields, valleys and swamps and come
from Europe, Asia and Africa.
The wonderful power in this Herb
Tea regenerates the system, cleanses
and tones the blood, cleanses the
liver, flushes and purifies the kidneys,
sweetens the bowels and stomach and
gives back the snap and vigor that
only a healthy person can have.
For years Von Schlick made this Tea
and gave it to sick people. It helped
veryone. The fame of this medicine be-
gan to travel; people came to him for
3 and he gave it free—gave until it
urt.
Mr. Von Schlick was a poor
man and was unable to supply the
general demand as the herbs were
very costly, being imported from dis-
tant lands. Then people told him to
make it for the whole world to use
and today he believes he is doing
more good for suffering humanity
with Bulgarian Blood Tea than any
other medicine in the world.
Bulgarian Blood Tea today is used
the world over and praised by millions
of sufferers fighting disease and ward:
ing off old age weaknesses. They in
clude happy girls budding into woman:
hood or women crossing precarious
thresholds of life. All praise and rec
ommend it. Men regain their strength
and vitality, the blood becomes rich
and pure and the snap and sparkle of
good health returns to those who were
in despair. Just ask your druggist or
grocer today for a trial package of
Bulgarian Blood Tea and you will
never regret the time you spent in

Matrimonial Oddities.
In bygone days in India women were
sometimes allowed to choose their own
htsband. One of their old fairy tales
tells of a fair princess, who, after a
tournament, placed a garland around
the neck of a knight who had won her
heart.
Among the Eskimos of the east coast
of Greenland a man captures the girl
he wants, but from that time on the
usual order of things is reversed. He
has to exercise the greatest vigilance
to prevent her from eloping with any
other man whom she may prefer, as
this seems to be her privilege. In the
northern New Hebrides a bride who
is unhappy seeks the earliest oppor-
tunity of running away from her hus-
band and seeking a home with some
man she likes better. If her parents
cannot induce her to return to the in-
jured husband they usually send him
a pig to soothe his wounded feelings.

HOOD’S SARSAPARILLA.
‘Why Have Catarrh?
| So Disagreeable to Yourself and All
About You.
Catarrh is generally conceded to be
a constitutional disease. Therefore it
requires a constitutional remedy like
Hood’s Sarsaparilla which reaches
every part of the system by thorough-
ly purifying and enriching the blood.
The medicine removes the cause of the
trouble, which if not checked may lead
to more serious disease.
In 46 years of use and test Hood’s
Sarsaparilla has relieved many cases
as told by voluntary letters of com-
mendation. Why not get a bottle to-
day and give it a trial? It combines
economy and efficiency. Keep Hood’s
