Chinese has been described as “the most intricate, cumbrous and un- wieldy vehicle of thought that ever obtained among any people." There are eighteen varieties of it, besides the court dialect, and until recently no European knew more than three of these fluently, while it may be doubt- ed whether any Chlnamau ever fully understood them all. In what is commonly called Chinese there are 30,000 recognized written character, yet there is no alphabet and practically no grammar. Even this immense number of characters may be indefinitely extended. for a learned Chinese scribe, if he does not know a sign which he thinks entirely suitable to the word he desires to ex- press, coins one. There is a Chinese printed book in the British museum with thirty-two different samples of these fancy characters. Basque is the most difficult of Eu- ropean languages to acquire, chiefly be- cause of the arbitrary adoption of ex- traneous words into its sentences. This character mark. no other European tongue. but it is one which also ren- ders American Indian languages very troublesome to learn. Gaelic is also difficult, for it has no affirmative and no present tense. One of these is a Malay in charge of all packets for Europeans, Jews, Ar- menians, Malaya, Arabs, Parsees and Japanese, which are presumably ad- dressed in European script or in writ- ing akin to it. The second of the trio is a Chinaman, who deals with corre- spondence bearing ideographic charac- ters, while the third is a Tamil, who takes out letters addressed in the writ- ing of his own race as well as any in Telegu and southern Indian writing. These cosmopolitan postmen have, of course, often to consult each other as they deliver the mails, but sometimes even their varied linguistic attainments have to be supplemented by a Sikh who understands Hindoostanee, Per- sian and northern Indian characters. So hard is it that in some districts it has been found necessary to send the postmen upon their rounds in sets of three. Language. Retell-nary to Singapore’s Mall Delivery. Singapore in the only British post- ofllce which employs letter carriers for each language. Within that city there are so many different races who reâ€" ceive correspondence addressed in their own vernacular writing that proper de- livery is extremely difficult Why Wave. Alwuy- Become Break- er: In Shallow Water. Long and oscillatory waves run by gravity, the first agitating the water to nearly the same amount at all depths, while the chief disturl‘mnce due to the latter emitines itself to the upper layers of the water. These oscillatm'y waves, the most typical example of which is perhaps furnished by the “swell,” or regular rolling waves which continue to run in deep water after a storm, will break on a slnrlving shore when their height is about equal to the depth of water. \Vhen the depth is sufficient to allow the ()Scillzlih‘ms to proceed unimpeded no progressive motion takes place, each column being kept in its place by the pressure of surrounding columns. li‘. lnnvevm'. free oscillation is pre- vented. as by the interposition of a rock or by the shelving of the shore, the columns in the deep water are not balanced by those in the shallower, and thus they acquire a progressive motion and form “breakers.” For this reason waves always break against the shore, whatever is the direction of the Wind. The Ship Rigger. Even compared with the work of a circus acrobat the job of a ship's rigger is extremely perilous, for whereas the circus performer is safeguarded in ev- ery way possible and the repes and supports are thoroughly tested the rig- ger’s duty is to ascend masts often made extremely perilous by rot or dan- gerously impaired by storms. Extreme coolness and caution are necessary, and the men engaged in this calling are a clear headed, hard handed lot, who take risks cheerily and work with an instant understanding of their busi- ness. Taking into consideration the ex- tent and character of their work, com- paratively few meet with accident. The Explanation. Balty Mooreâ€"How was that last cook you had?

As a rule we don’t use or refer to testimonials in addressing the public, but the above remark and similar expressions are made so often in connec- tion with Scott’s Emulsion that they are worthy of occasional note. From infancy to old age Scott’s Emulsion offers a reliable means of remedying im- proper and weak develop- ment, restoring lost flesh and vitality, and repairing waste.

Parkerâ€"2. ”In almost any neighborhood,”l says the San Francisco Chronicle, 3 "one can pick out the farmers who are going to leave property when they die. They are of two classesâ€"’ those who began with something and knew how to increase and keep it. and those who began without a cent. These latterâ€"we know two suchâ€"no matter on how low wages they began. saved part of them. They worked hard, paid close attention to their business and made no question of hours If a thing needed finishing they did it. even if it was six o,clock. and without being asked. When part of the force was cut off. they were kept. and in the spring their wages were raised to keep them. Oi even- ings they might have enjoyed playing pedro. drinking beer and groaning over the hard times with the rest; but thev could see nothing in it. so stayed at home and studied. In the morning they had all the money they had the night before and clear heads. In time they saved about 31.000 and boughtâ€"not the best. but what they could pay for. They had so learned their business that they knew how to make a profit out of land that the pedro players could do nothing with. They rustled for customers in the local market and did not complain of competition. They had learned partly from experience partly from books and papers while the ether fel- ,lows were playing pedro. Pretty 'soon these men will buy each a farm ‘ with a fine house at some mortgage sale. and the best of the pedro players may get a job to work for them. Nature is firmly established in her ways, and no amount of importuning will change them. Men is supposed to be endowed with flexibility that will enable him to adapt himsell and his methods to the moods of Nature. The man who sits down and whines over a wet spell or gives way to des- pair over a drought is liable to end his days living 08 his relatives or the country. It's the man who tills his wet land and who irrigates his dry land who succeeds. God gives the land and sends His sun and showers. but man.s two hands must do the restâ€"man’s two hands and the brain that is behind them. The more brain the greater success. Better Than a Plaster.
