FRE ELAND,PA., NOVEMBER9,IB93. In China nearly all people pay their debts. Tho few that do not commit suicide to avoid the scorn of their fellows. If all people in this country committed suicide who won't pay their honest debts it would make a heap of work for the coroner. "Shall girls smoke cigarettes" may be a very important question, but it baidly dignifies modern journalism to give much space to the subject. Any girl, or boy either, who has brains won't smoke cigarettes, and those who have not, the smoking will not harm.

Brief reports have received re cently of the existence of a young En glish woman, a missionary, in the wjlds of inhospitable Tibet Now there Ls at hand u story of her adventures from tho North China Daily News. On May 5 Miss Annie Taylor, the ex plorer, passed through Chunkong on her way home having completed a year of wandering. Miss Taylor is a medium sized wom an of Saxon build,with brilliant brown eyes, the complexion of a traveler, and the air of one who has suffered much. Iler bearing, her bright eyes and ani mated expression show her to be a woman of resource and imagination, and in seeing her lively manner, not withstanding her present weak state of health, one begins to understand the influence sho was able to exercise over the savage peoples among whom she has been traveling alone with lior life in her hand. She is full of enthusiasm for the civilization and conversion of the Tibetans, which she hopes to com municate to the people of England, and this, wc have no doubt, she will fully succeed in doing. Miss Taylor is the daughter of a gentleman of means en gaged in business in London. Her trip rivals in adventure, while in difficulties overcome it excels the trav els of even Capt. Bower and Mr. Rock hill. With the help of one Christian Tibetan whom she took with her from Darjeeling, she penetrated to within three days of Lhassa, and returned alive to tell the tale. Hut for the treachery of a Mohammedan Chinese woman she engaged in Kansu, there seems little doubt that she would have arrived in Lhassa itself. Miss Taylor says that she first attempted to enter Tibet from the Indian side in 1887. £ikkim was not English then, and or ders were given that no one should serve her. So, though she had plenty of money, she could buy nothing, and was often very hungry. Then she got fever and had no appetite. Hut after uinino her appetite returned, until she did not know which was worse, fe ver or hunger. Twice attempts were made to poison her, and for ten months she never saw another European. Then she decided to try to get in from China, and after spending about a year on the frontier living very quiet ly, not going out, but constantly re ceiving Tibetans in her house, she re ceived various offers of convoys to Lhassa. Hcfore crossing the frontier, about which she had no trouble, she unhappily engaged a Chinaman whose Tibetan name was Noga. She had two tents, four servants, and tried to get ten really good horses bj* promising to give them at the journey's end to No ga. One of her first serious adventures was being attacked by a band of bri gands with white fur coats,leading each a spare horse. Two were killed, eight wounded, and five out of her horses killed, besides much property lost. Hut u Lama called out to the robbers: "They are all women! All women!" so she was not pursued. Among Mongols and Tibetans it is esteemed a dreadful thing to strike a woman, so that all women go about unarmed, although every man carries weapons. As Miss Taylor says, by the Tibetan religion it lis forbidden to take life, whether a flea's, a sheep's, or a man's. On September 28 the party crossed the Yellow river on yak skins blown out. with hurdles laid upon them and drawn by horses. These rafts were awash all the time, and the water was ice cold. They then found themselves in the Golok district which is peopled entirely by robbers. Their chieftain is u woman.and Jaws are strictly observed in her domains, and no bribes are tak en. The Goloks relate how five Rus sians came to travel through the coun try, and they themselves went out to attack them five hundred strong, but aould kill none, though twelve of them selves were killed. Then came another traveler alone with a tin box. They all wanted that tin box, and still con tinue to reproach one another that they did not take it, but their belief was that on opening it an army of soldiers would come out, and they thought tho same with regard to Miss Taylor's two cases of chests of drawers, besides many otlur fabulous tales about her. in every way people sought to pre vent hor from entering the Lhassa dis trict by telling her of fighting going on. but she found that an afrangoun-nt ha:'* been landc that travelers should not be interfered with. It was here, however, that Noga, after repeated neis of insubordination, began to use violence to her, and at last tried to draw his .-word. It was the Tibetans \\ lio protected her against h Town Chi ncve servant, and. saying there was no -chief t here able to protect her, sent her on under an escort. Miss Taylor's hardships would re quire a volume for adequate description. For three days they lost their road. They hud no tent. That and every comfort had to be sold, her servant hav ing taken everything ho could from her before he left. When, on December J4. they found the road again, they hid away in the hills for the whole ol C hristmas day. During all this part of the journey her sufferings from the rarity of the air were very great; pal pitations, gasping*, and inability to di gest their barley food. Noga spread a report that Miss Taylor was traveling with a belt of gold and jewels around her waist. She had to travel by night, finding the cold almost unbearable. Tea froze as soon as poured out, and for three nights they were only toe thankful to find refuge in a cave with barely room enough for them to lie down, half suffocated by smoke, so as to obtain a little warmth. On December 31 they crossed the Drichu into the Lhassa district, but hae to stop near Najuca, within three days journey of Lhassa; owing to Noga hav ing gone before, revealing that it was a foreigner coming. A military chief arrived, and there was a sort of trial. In the end Miss Taylor convinced the officer of the truth of her story, saving the live* of her two Tibetan servants, ; who were aocused of treacherously leading her into, Tibet. The chiefs told her that as far as they were concerned she could go on to Lhassa, but they I would lose their lives if she did, and they gave her an official and nine sol diers to protect her aguiust the Chinese servant, besides supplying her most pressing necessities. Everywhere she found the Tibetans express liking for the English. They had been especially struck by the fact that the prisoners in the Sikkirn war were kept alive, well fed, and actually supplied with money to go home with. On the return journey the horses, which have to bo fed with goats' flesh, tea, butter and cheese, suffered so from hunger that they were always tumb ling down, until Miss Taylor joined a yak caravan, and 900 yaks made away for them through twenty feet of snow. On January 22 Miss Taylor left the Lhassa district of Tibet, and on April 12 she reached Tachionlu after hard ships such as it seems hardly credible a woman should have surmounted. ALWAYS BUOYANT. She Works With a Man of Dry Science Hut Sho Overcomes That. A woman who is secretary for a well renown scientific man has caused much secrot envy among her sex because of her abounding vitality she always dis plays. Some of her less energetic friends assert that her vitality is posi tively irritating. She works all day | {md she stays up as late as she wants to, having the good times which most women who work hard dony them selves, saying they "simply must have time for rest" She is always alert, mentally and physicially. This, she says, is the way she does it: She rises early. That, at the outset, would frighten most people out of their desire to be perennially gay. Her next move Is more encouraging for she differs from those disagreeable people who recommend a cold plunge for the first act of the day. She doesn't believe in cold plunges, but she docs dash cold water in her face, and then eats an orange or some other fruit in season, and bathes her face, neck and arms. By the time breakfast is ready, and less resolute people are rubbing their eyes and saying sleepily: "Mercy! Is it breakfast time?" She has copied her report of a lecture or prepared soino original matter for tho publisher. lier morning meal begins with more fruit. She is a great believer in fruit and water, but takes the former internally and tho lattor externally. Much drink ing of water, she contends, makes the ilesh soft and flabby; much bathing j makes it firm and elastic. After breakfast comes the long pull of the day's vvcrk with the learned man. lie, it is whispered, does not recognize grammar as his strong point —at leaHt his secretary does not. Af ter pursuing the elusive rules of syn tax and rhetoric through the labyrinth of his treaties, she goes home a mental and physical wreck. But she looks at her haggard face in the glass and smiles soornfully and inhospitably upon It. She waves her wand, otherwise her hair brush, diligently for awhile, and bathes her face and arms in very hot water. Finally she heats her hand, moistened with aromatio vinegar, rubs the back of her neck well, then looks in the glass, and, presto! the haggard face is gone and a rosy one appears in stead. Late in the evening the superior sec retary likos to indulge in a cracker and some stewed fruit, and the last act of tho day is her bath. Threo times a week she indulges in a sulphur bath. She had shrewdly observod that at tho I sulphur springs even wrinkled old ladies came from the baths with a soft pink glow tinging their yellow cheeks. Consequently she tried manufacturing her own sulphur baths. She throws a handful of sulphur into the bath tub and the next morning she has as pret ty si (lush as a three-year-old baby. She admits that it takes determina tion to inaugurate this regime, but claims that once started it supports it self by the extra energy it superin duces. And thon she exults. And her indolent sisters say she is very irritat ing. "Her spirits are almost animal." N. Y. Sun. INTERESTING PARAGRAPHS. AT a recent special meeting of the Fellows of the itoyul Geographical so ciety of England, a resolution in favor of the admission of ladies as honorary members was rejected by 172 to 158 votes. Miss M. MERTA MITCHELL, of Salem. Ind., was admitted to the bar tho day after the Indiana supreme court decided that women might practice law. That gives her the distinction of being the first woman lawyer in the state. TIIE English girl seems to LIE busy acquiring knowledge. Miss Mary O'Brien, for instunce, has received a scientific research scholarship, worth about $750 a year, for two years. She has decided to devote herself for that period to the study of tho nitrogen sup ply of tho luguminous and other plants. Miss DUDLEY, an English bicyclist, holds the record for long distance rid ing by women. She made tho distance of one hundred miles, between Hitchin and Lincoln, in little more than seven hours, or at an average speed of nearly fourteen miles an hour. This, too, in regulation petticoats, not the new stylo of trousers. AN effort was recently made to Be cure the admission of women to mem hership in the Laryngologioal associa tion in England. Although the attempt was unsuccessful the women regard it as an evidence of advance that the question should have l>een debated in the society. They gained a good deal, anyway, as women are to be admitted as visitors with power to take part in discussions. MRS. STELLA B. COSOEU, wife of ex- Senator O. D. Conger, of Michigan, died recently, and her will occasions some comment. She was rioh and ha was poor. To him she leaves the sum of *l5O a month, and makes provision for his funeral auJ for the erection of a suitable monument over his remains. She does not, however, leave him any ready money—no lump sum—only this anuuity of II, SOU, payable monthly. ! FISH AND SNAKE YARNS. UNCLE EPII PLUNKETT, of Mirabella Falls, Tex., has taught a rattlesnake to shake his tail to music. THREE THOUSAND salmon, it is claimed, were landed by Samuel Good win with one haul of a net near Port Angele, Wash., recently. MRS. O. P. PAYNE, of Gainesville, On., killed thirteen rattlesnakes in the lot around her home, with a piece of fence rail, a few days ago. They averaged about two feet in length each. AN old Maine fisherman has been living in a dory all summer, cruising about Penobscot bay catching and cur ing fish. He has camped in rough fashion on the islands, hasn't slept in a bed since last May, and avers he has had a very fine time. ONE curious result of the hurricane that struck the southern coast recent ly was the killing of quantities of fish. For many days after the storm the coast around Savannah and throughout the stretch where its force was most vented was strewn with dead fish of all kinds. POISONOUS snakes are so numerous in Venezuela that snake bite is almost as common there as in India. But there are fewer fatalities, for the natives have discovered that a plant known as the ocumillo, when powdered and ap plied to the wound, results in a cure in almost every case. ART AND ARTISTS. GIOTTO'S greatest advance in paint ing was the rejection of the greenish black color the Byzantine painters em ployed for the human figure, and sub stituting the color of nature for the faces and hands. TIIE museum of antiquities at Dres den lias come into possession of an in teresting marble relief from Rome, which represents an amient butcher shop, of oblong shape, and divided by a pillar Into two equal parts. A PORTRAIT, which is supposed to be of Robert Auclirauty, one of George lll.'s judges, in Boston, is still hang ing in the supreme courtroom in that city. The picture is the work of John Singleton Copley and bears the date of 1707. MR. BURNE-JONES, the English artist, is engaged upon the interesting task of painting a portrait of Mr. Glad stone's youngest granddaughter, Doro thy Drew. This little blue-eyed maiden of three years is said to re semble the grandfather startlingly. A GREEK peasant living on the island of Angina recently discovered a mag nificent statue buried in the ground, upon which had been a small planta tion, and which he had cleared. The statue was sold to a bric-a-brac dealer, who sent it to London, where it has just been bought by the British gov ernment for the sum of sixty-five hun dred pounds. BOOK LITTER. TIIE sultan is establishing a public library in Constantinople., All the li braries of the mosques are to be trans ferred to it. TIIE old Indiana homestead of the family of Mr. James Whitcomb Riley has been purchased by the poet as a permanent residence. THE largest library in the world is the Bibliotheque Nationale, Paris, founded by Louis XI". It contains 1,- 400,000 volumes, 30C.000 pamphlets, 175 manuscripts, 300,000 maps and charts and 150,000 coins and medals. DR. OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES cele brated his eighty-fourth birthday re cently. lie is working on an auto biography. Few men have in their time tasted more of the love of their fellow men than the cheery Autocrat. AN interesting find is a library of 500 volumes, including sevonty manu scripts of the tenth and eleventh, and some with wonderful miniatuies of the •the fourteenth centuries, which were recently discovered in a Franciscan cloister near Itieti, Italy. THE NOBILITY. PRINCESS EuLALiKhas been for weeks past sojourning quietly in London, ac companied by her two little sons. THE queen consort of Siam owns a wonderfully beautiful thimble. It is shaped like a lotus and made of solid gold, studded with diamonds. TIIE only ornament worn by the wid owed Archduchess Stephanie of Aus tria is a locket containing on one side the portrait of her little daughter and on the other that of her mother, the queen of Belgium. WHEN the princess of Wales was married, the king of the Belgians gave her lace of the value of ten thousand pounds. Since that time the princess has gone on collecting and now her lace is worth something like fifty thou sand pounds. PHILIP 111., of Spain, was not roasted to death by a roaring fire because court etiquette forbade anyone to go to his assistance. He died a natural death, and the same story is told of a dozen different raonarchs who were sticklers for ceremony. FARMING IN FOREIGN LAND 3. THE French minister of agriculture now Issues monthly crop reports, as is done in Germany and Hungary. In England this work Is undertaken by the London Times. RINDERPEST has been prevalent in the southern provinces of Russia, being first brought from the neighborhood of the River Don, where ten tliousard head of cattle were attacked. THE French potato crop hasyLldM above an average in thirty-four depart ments, an average in twenty-seven, and below an average crop in twenty four departments. 1 HE permission to collect dead leaves n the forests of Austria, which has een restricted of late years, has now H'cn liberally extended, because fod i dor is so scarce. AFTER the severe drought in England, rains delayed the harvest of the cereal crops, and caused m ildew and sprout ing in the ear, besides bringing on po tato disease. PLEASURE CALENDAR.
