head smoothly shavcd,hairneatly combed, dressed in his best clothes, and provided withiigift, he presents himself to the teacher. Offeringllis gift, he reveiently bows his head three times to the ground. This xn~:;;nsiiml he pledges himself to obey his commands. Next he does reverence to, and burns incense before, a tablet on which is written the name of the great Chinese sage, Confucius.

the central room of the house, little ta.b‘.e.~ with stools are scattered about here and lhcrc for the pupils, whilea

The teachers table is supplied with books, pens, inkstones, and two other quite indispensable articles, a pipe and a bamboo stick, for Chinese teachers thoroughly believe their national maxim, that “To educate without severity shows a. teachers indolence"!

Chinese boys are never late for school,

for there are no regular hours of opening or closing. Each pupil co mes whenever he can, has his own lesson assigned him, and stays as long as he can. '

Instead of an alphabet he has to learn

to right as you are reading this. The characters are written one beneath the other in columns, and commenciligon the top of the column next on the left and so on. Another thing that wouldseem very queer toCanadian boys and girls is that he begins his book at the back and reads it through to the front.

He learns that there are three great

superiors whom he must obey unquestion- ingly-the Emperor, the parents, and the teacher; that the three great, powers are- heaven, earth, and man; and the three great lights- the sun, moon and stars. He is also taught that China is the only great nation on earth, -and _that - all _foreigners are to be hated and despised. He is then drilled in the wis- dom and sayings of the ancient sages, chief of whom is Confucius. ., ,

After ten or flfeen years’ study he goes

up for the governmental examination for the degree of “Siu~tsai,” or B. A. As on- 1Y about one in every hundred 'passes each year, he is often a“long time in getting his degree. But he rarely gives up. A ‘Siu-tsai"rnay write for the degpe of “Chu-jen,” or M. A., and last 'of all “Cheng-shih," or LL. D. He is then con- sidered a very great and wise man indeed to whom his friends show the utmost deference, presenting him with gifts and making great feasts in his honor.

National Council of Women.

VICTORIA, B.C., July 27.-The proceed-

ings ofthe National Council of Women here are proving of greatest interest. The members have been almost daily feted since their arrival, and have, besides, I found time to dispose of a- large amount of practical business. Lady Taylor pre- sides. Among the resolutions adopted was one strongly urging better accom- madation than the gaols afford forinsaue cases, and the establishment of public libraries.

Yesterday the delegates were taken up

Victoria Arm in launches to the residence of Premier Dunsmuir, where they disem- barked and a delightful reception was held. Luncheonsand teas are daily pro vided at different homes and by churches. Astirring address on Canadian history was delivered last evening by Miss Fitzgibbon, Toronto.

not suffice to save the lives of the famine- strickeu, then an appeal would be made , to the imperial exchequer.
