Chinaman Got . Even With is I3ad Neighbor.' A. cm -notary is :the one sacred spot ir China. ::To desecrate sucha place is the worst Of crimes. Some years since there lived in a village on the plain of the Yellow River a man called Tn. His little farin. furnished him witina com- fortable : living, but nothing .:more. Like all farms in that part of China, there was no fence to .separate .his fields from those of his neighbors. One of these neighbors was a rascal, who, knowing Mr. Tu to be of mild disposi- tion, re,eolved to impose upon him by Ploughing, a few furrows of Mr. Tu's land.and thus incorporating it with his own. This act did not pass unobserv- ed, but Mr. Tu Was cautious as well as. mild. He knew that litigation carne high, and was uncertain. "Better," he said to himself, "to endure the wrong than to Suffer loss of both land and The next year the neighbor repeated the experinient, and ploughed up few More furrows. -Again Mr. Tu con- sul ted with himself, and determined, as previously, that law was too ex- pensiVe a luxury for him.. The neighbor,encouraged by this 'complaisance, continued to add to his own ;acres at the other's expense. At length he became so .bold as 'to incor- porate in this way the family ceme- tery, where were buried Mr. Tu's an- . Then Mr.. Tu saw the chance for Which he had - been waiting. By ploughing up this cemetery the neigh- bor had committed sacrilege. The only difficulty was that the punish-, nient was so severe that it might not be possible, unless he was careful, to get his neighbor punished at all: For the law was that, if the magistrate should take' notice of the suit, 'he. would have to send up a report to his superiors at- the capital of the pro- vince and request that proper punish- /Tient be inflicted upon himself, Seeing that so heipous a Grine had been com- mitted in the district for which he was responsible. Accordingly, Mr. Tu brought the matter before the magistrate in a way that did not involve that official. He brought accusation against his father, who was dead, for having Moved his gra,e oft his son's land to that'of the encroaching neighbor instead of abid- ing in the cemetery where he properly belonged. The Chinese love humor and greatly admire shrewdness. When, therefore, the magistrate read this amazing cic- ument, he smiled with genuine appre- ciation of Mr. Tu's cleverness, called up the offending neighbor, made him 5.11,9629.4,46IAIIKELTAT2011101.t combined with. good judgment counts in business now -a -days.

General Castelnau, chief of the French military delegation at the con- ference of the Entente allies at Petro- grad, is quoted in a despatch to the Temps of Paris from the Russian cap ital as saying: "One has only to compare the muli- tary situation of the allies in the month of January, 1916, with that of January', 1.91.7, and he will be corn - pelted to admit that the cenditions for the forthcoming Spring campaign are much more favorable than they were last year. "I can say ,that each day we are corning nearer to the realization of our objects. The brave Russian army, whibh has assumed a formidable task, the gallant Italian troops, and, finally, the Anglo-French forces, wildch are increasing in number, constitute the best guarantees of our final victory, which hereafter will come promptly. In the meantime the military power of the allies remains unshakeable. The Germans have procured success only on secondary fronts. "With -regard to the , principal fronts, on which decisive action will occur, our enemies have shown them- selves powerless to obtain any serious results," LITTLE WORRIES • 't THE HOME These Bring the Wrinkles and Pallid Faces That Make Women Look Prematurely .0111.
