The little peculiarities of women are a fruitful topic with some mas
culine writers. They continually rush into print with such questions as: Why does a woman always want to know if her hat is on straight? Why does she keep you
waiting 10 minutes after she's de
elared she’s ready? Why does she do this, that and the other? Here’s
a counterblast from a woman: Why does a man rush through his

She Has Neither Soldiers
Nor Patriots.
“I think it is one of the most thoughtful points in Divine Providence that the Chinaman was born anything but a soldier,” said Ut. Rev. Joseph Key, bishop aud late episcopal pastor of China and Japan of tho Si. E. church soqth. “\Yhy,” continued the prelate, “it is a fact which a great many people know, and yet which few stop to seriously consider, that if all tljc people of this earth were to pass before yhu on review every third one would be a Chinaman. If they were a warlike race, or if, in fact, they were not strongly averse to war, they could overturn the world. The Chinese army is but a s’.icktot.. From the emperor down to the most petty officer in the empire it is a system of squeezing, and they are all there to make what is in sight. There are a number of pi,sis in China, each in command of a general, anil he is supposed to have several thousand men. Really, he will have but few. When word reaches him that inspeetiou of his forces will be made on a certain day he goes out into the rice fields ami easily gatherk the requisite number, each one of whom lie furnishes with an imperial ensign and proudly puts them through some sort of evolution before the inspector, who counts them, and after finding the requisite number makes the general the annual allowance. When he is well out of the section the men are paid for their lime uini sent back to the rice fields. Of course, there are some regular troops, but tho knowledge of such notion on the part of the commandant i at interior posts caused me to say it
was but a skeleton."

OFFICIAL NOTICE
OF THE
WORLD’S PAIR AWARD TO Dr. Price’s Cream Baking Powder.
John Boyd Thacher, Chairman of the Executive Committee on Awards at the Columbian Exposition, writing from Washington, D. C, to the Price Baking Powder Company, says: “/ herewith enclose you an official copy of your award, which in due time, will be inscribed in the Diploma, and forwarded to your address, unless otherwise indicated by you." Thus are the honors awarded Dr. Price’s Baking Powder at the World's Fair fully verified. On the other hand the claims to awards at the Fair by a New York Baking Powder are proven wholly false. Official records show it was not even an exhibitor. Was it because it contained Ammonia ?

BRAND THE CLAIM AS FALSE. World's Fair Officials Expose Freteiidoi to au Award. CiriOAQO, III., Jan. 2.—One of the odd results of the World’s Fair is the claim now made to awards by some who were not even exhibitors Officials of the Exposition have not as yet taken final action in the matter, believing tho quick wit of the people will detect the spurious claims. But to the ease of a New York baking powder, that has been widely advertising an award, the attention of the Chief of Awards lor Agriculture, has been directed. He brands the claim of this pretender as false, declaring “Neither the records of this department, nor the official catalogue of the World’s Columbian Exposition, show that this New York Company was an exhibitor; consequently it could not receive an award at the
World’s Fair.”
Those who fairly won their honors at the Fair seem disposed to treat this fraud as any other fraud should
