I had always heard that there were lots of beggars in China, but I had no idea that China was squirm ing with them. I don't know how many there are, but if I were asked to guess I'd say a million.

There are three kinds of beggars in China—the local beggars, who live in the town they prey on; the traveling beggars, who journey from village to village; religious beggars, who, according to their religion, have to become traveling beggars for a certain number of years in or der to attain the right humility. I can think of nothing that would gain a person humility quicker than begging in China and sleeping on mats by the side of the road. This kind can he told by the. white spots on top of their heads. I could hard ly believe it when 1 was told how these spots were made—by dropping hot lead on their heads. The number of beggars in a small town is surprising. In one small town that 1 lived in for awhile there were 800 local beggars. These with the hundreds that flocked in for few days or a week at a time kept the town so well supplied that the people were never pinched for some one to throw pennies to. A person cannot become a beggar in China by simply putting on old clothes and gAing out with his palm turned up. He has to serve an ap prenticeship just as he would in any other trade. The beggars have unions. Incredible as it may seem in every town or village is a beggar guild, all handed together for thi common purpose of making people pay. This is the way they ge about it: Each town has its head of the guild, or beggar chief, called the kah doen. His word is law. The kah doen goes to a merchant and tells him that unless he pays him money it will go hard with him. If the merehant says that lie won’t be bluffed a few days later, when the merchant has his store full of fash ionable customers, in will troop a dozen beggars, diseased and scabbed, crowding up against the customers. There are so many that the mer chant can’t put them out; the cus tomers run from the store, and the poor merchant loses many sales.— Homer Croy in Leslie’s. C u r i o u s Bibles. Among the curious Bibles is the “Persecuting Printer’s Bible,\ eon- taining the phrase, “Printers have persecuted me without cans/.*\ (Psalm exix, 161). The substitution of the word “printers” for “pi-in/•es\ is responsible for the giving of this name to this Bible. All we know of this edition is stated by Stevens in his catalogue of the Saxton exhi- bition of Bibles. This authority tells us that these words were put into a Bible printed before ITO’J. There is also the “Bays to Ear” Bilile, in which occurs thi; expression “Whoso hath ears to t»ar, let him hear” (Matthew xii. 43). This adap tation to cockney usage is found in an octavo Bible published by the Oxford Press in 1810. T h a n k s g i v i n g . The first national Thanksgiving may be said to have been the one offered up at St. Paul’s cathedral, Loudon, for the defeat of the Span ish armada, September, l.ri 88 . The English settlers in this country nat urally adopted the custom of their native land, and at an early period in our colonial history Thanksgiving became quite common. The institn- i tion may he said to be the natural outgrowth of human nature and has probably existed in some form or other from the earliest times.— Ex change. Hugo and Garibaldi. Visitors to Guernsey, are some times able to see Huuteville, where Victor Hugo, the French poet, lived and died. In his house is a hand somely furnished room, which was specially prepared by Victor Hugo for Garibaldi, who hud promised to he his guest. Everything which Vic tor Hugo thought Garibaldi would appreciate was placed in this room. But Garibaldi changed his plans and never visited Hauteville.
