Tha Monasteries of Tibet.
Every Tibetan family is compelled i
to devote its firstborn male child to a |
monastic life. Soon after his birth i
the child is taken to a Buddhist mon- -
astery to 1 • brought up and trained in
priestly mysteries. At about the age 1
of ei lit h • joins one of the caravans \

taehed to one of the local monasteries, i
where be remains as a novice until he
is fifteen, learning to read the sacred
books and perform the religious rites |
of his faith. The firstborn son, being
thus sent into the church, a3 we
should say in this country, the second
becomes the head of the family
and marries. TTnlike some other semi
civilized races, these young Tibetans
have the rh ht of choosing their own
wives. N<t can a Tibetan girl be
married off by her parents without her
own consent. The curious custom in
regard to the eldiit sous results of

Slow but Inexorable Justice.
In October, 1900, Pietro Giaeoni and
Marie Bonelli were tried at Home on
a charge of sextuple murder by poi
soning committed thirty-one years be
fore. In England Eugene Aram was
hanged fort he murder of Clarke four
teen years after the offense. A man
named Home was executed for the
murder of his child in the eighteenth
century no less than thirty-five years
after the offense. There is also the
well known ease of Governor Wall,
who was executed in 1802 for a mur
der committed in 1752. 8 her ward was
hanged at Norwich for the murder of
his wife after a lapse of twenty years.
But Sir Fitzjames Stephens recalls
what is the most remarkable case of
all. lie prosecuted as counsel for the
crown in 1803 a man who was charged
with stealing a leaf from a parish reg
ister sixty years before—that is, in
1803. In this case the prisoner was
acquitted.—London Standard.
Prohibited Coffee Houses.
So many coffee houses sprang into
existence in England during the reign
of Charles 11. that he, entertaining a
belief that many political intrigues had
their beginning in those places, issued
an edict ordering them to bo closed.
In this proclamation the following
words occurred: "The retailing of cof
fee or tea might be an innocent trade,
but it was said to nourish sedition,
spread lies and scandalize great men.
It might also be a common nuisance."
Conceited.
Phyllis—Harry is the most conceited
man I ever met. Maud—What makes

asserts that 1 am the most adorable
woman in the world, the most beauti
ful, intellectual and In every respect a
paragon, and then he wants me to
marry him!

It has been said that life Is made up
three things—heredity, environment
and the will. If the heredity and en-
Tiroument of the child are what they
should be the will will choose the right

An East Indian Verdict.
In a case in one of our Indian courts
a jury had before it evidence that
could not. be in any way shaken. When
the concluding stage had been reached
the following interchange of conversa
tion took place between the judge and
his colleagues In the administration of
justice:
"Gentlemen, are you ready to give
your verdict?"
"Yes."
"What is your verdict?"
"Our answer is, sir, that you can do
as you like with the men that have
confessed, but we acquit all the rest."
"But is it possible that you have
weighed the evidence?"
"Evidence like this can always be
fabricated."
"Do you find that as regards these
prisoners it hits been fabricated?"
"Evidence can be fabricated."
"So the . vidi, ■ • is untrustworthy?"
"Unless a i confesses who can
tell he is guilt; '—Bombay Gazette.
Tha Pun cf the Farce.
It is related t.'iat the manager of a
theater cor :nti d to hear In his room
a young man v, 'io bad an unfortunate
impediment in his speech read a short
farce, the sole condition being that it
should not oc;; pj more time than it
took to finish the cigar the manager
had just lit. They both started, the
one reading, the other smoking, but as
the mild Havana gradually grew
shorter tho worse the young author
spluttered. They finished together. Of
course the question was immediately
put, "What do you think of it?-"
"Well," replied the manager, "it's not
a half bad idea. Father, mother, lover,
daughter, all stuttering, will be novel!"
Tho author, furious, exclaimed:"They
don't stammer! It is only my misfor
tune."
"Oh, then, the play isn't funny at
all! Sorry that I can't accept It," re
turned the manager.

Above Her Business.
Tho tal' "nan came into her little
blue kitchen and looked over the
shelves which were just beneath the
level of his head, but above hers. He
ran his finger over one shelf, then
showed it to her. It was pretty black.
"You are a nice housekeeper," he
said.
"This kitchen wasn't made for tall

to be an illegal state. "How so? llow

The student smiled beatltieally. "Mar

Mr. W. W Mattison, of Ilidgway,
j well and favorably known in this
county, writes the following 1 interest
i ing letter to Judge (Irnon, whion bo
kindly allows us to publish, ai follow::
KYOTO, JAPAN, JAN. 3ITI>, L&IO.
FRIEND GKEEN:—
Your letter reached meat Nagasaka
: ind I was very gl d to hear fn>m you.
I We have had a very nice trip; good
weather HU the way, except a li r \
-baking u,> bet ween M.mila and lit,eg
Kong. Had a tine reception at Manila
; by the Knights Templars, consisting of
musical, banquet and ball, li o a re
ception by the Governor, w; !. i.iu ic
J by the celebrated Philippine Band, the
> same band that took second prize at
I ;«t. Louis Fair. They had just return
ed from the States, where they had
been to attend the inauguration of
President Taft. They were organized
and are led by an American, negro. He
is certainly a good one. We also had
a good time at Hong Kong. There
were two of our battleships in the har
i bor while we were there. Two
red of the boys had "shore leave" for
two days to celebrate Christmas, and
they were doing it in great shape; had
I taken possession of all the driuging
\ places along the front street and seem
| ed to be having things about their own
! way. They were all loaded with some
kind of torpedoes, which they were
firing at every one to see them jump.
; They opened fire on Judge I.aßar, but
j lie paid no attention to them. They
finally noticed his G. A. R., button,
! when one of them said. "Boys, it is
| no use wasting our ammunition on a
! man that wears one of them buttons;
Ihe has been under fire before." Then
1 they wanted him togo and have a
| drink.
From there we went to Canton.
| They tried to scare us outof going, say
j ing it would not be sale for so large a
| party of strangers togo there, but
j most of v us went. Mr. Clark wired tho
Consul there and received a reply that
; if we would bo a little careful he
> thought we would be all right. We
; received a wire from the Viceroy to
| come on, he would take care of us.
| So we went on and when we arrived
there we were divided into small
parties of twelve each, with a guide for
each party. It is a most wonderful
city, the population being variously
estimated at from three to four mil
lions. They c nm ih«-re are four
hundred thousand living on boats, in
I the river. They is where the tough
! element come from. The officials had
i beheaded fourteen the day before we
i arrived, eight of the bodies still lying
upon tho ground. They allow the
bodies to remain thus twenty-four
hours after execution, to uive their
friends a chance to claim them. An
execution does not seem to create
j much notice, as the children were play
ing around the bodies, as though they
were so nmny pieces of wood.
Well, we arrived at Nagasaka, Japan,
and found the city all decorated in our
honor and you could hardly believe the
display then made. When we arrived
in the harbor we found a boat await
ing us, filled with different specimens
of fire works, which they fired into the
sky. After the rockets had risen to a
lieigth of two or three hundred feet
they would explode, throwing out .dif
ferent figures, consisting of Japanese
and American llags, suspended by
parachutes, to keep them floating.
They also sent out one figure of a man,
who came down through the air, bow
ing to us. Then a woman, doing the
same. The next piece was the Ameri
can Eagle, with out spread wings, I
should think,of ten feet.aeross.Various
other figures, too numerous to mention.
We went from Nagasaka, to Osaka,
where we met with another great re
ception. The city was finely decorated
with American and Japanese flags, al
ways joined together, and thousands
of Japanese lanterns. Never saw peo
ple who seemed to understand decorat
ing'better than the Japs. Ngasaka is
said to be the second city in size in the
Empire.
We are now in Kyoto, which is a
very picturesque place. Have not seeu
a white man here and do not believe
there are any. We are receiving about
the same ovation here that has been
accorded us all through Japan. Every
thing in a blaze of Japanese and Am
erican Hags and lanterns, with fire
works. At dinner, to-day, everyone
found at their place at the table, a
book containing twenty-tour photo
graphs, with a letter saying, "This
slight appreciation of the way the late
Japanese Commissioner was received
by the people of America." The
streets are so full of people, all crying,
Banzi, which they say means Welcome!
We have visited the Temples and
caatles here, but find them no compari
son to those which we saw in India
and Burma. Evertliing here is built
with wood and very little paint used.
We are at the Miyako Hotel, a native
institutioa, a very large one, located
on a hill. They give the best aervice
of any place since leaving New York,
everybody is enjoying it. All waiters
ire Japanese girls. They gave us a
iunce last night, by Ihe Giesha girls.
Their costumes were vory beautiful.
We leave hero to-night. J P. Felt
has gone up on top of the hill to view
the city, so I thought I would write
you. Vory cold here. With my best
wishes to Mrs. Green and Alice.
Yours Fraternally,

Don't Histake the Cause of Your
Troubles. An Emporium Citizen
Shows How to Cure Them.
Many people never suspect their kid
neys. If suffering from a lame, weak or
aching back they think that it is only a
muscular weakness; when urinary trouble
sets in they think it will soon correct it
self. And so it is with all the other
kidney disorders. That is just where the
danger lies. You must cure these
troubles or they may lead to diabetes
or disease. The best remedy to
use is Dean's Kidney Pills. It cures ail
ills which ari' caused by weak or dis
eased kidneys. Emporium people testify
to permanent cures.
