An attendant was chosen as stake
holder and the money (all they possess
ed) was p acod in his hands. Then be-
had no chairs, I sat on a low stool in
front of tho fire to eat it. I was scarce
ly seated before I felt something on my
neck, and putting my hand up, felt an
exceedingly severe sting on my left in
dex finger. It almost made me howl. I
immediately tied my handkerchief about
it and stopped the circulation and then
sucked it, and the old woman parted
with a chew of tobacco for it. In about
ten minutes the stinging ceased and I
thought it was all over, when intense
vertigo came on with much vomiting
and retching, then a sense of great
weakness and collapse, accompanied by
a profuse cold perspiration, then a sharp
tingling began in the bitten finger, ex
tending over tlie hand and up the arm,
then the other arm and hand, then both
feet they tingled and stung like an elec
trical current, and yet they were com
pletely dead to all external impressions,
and I could scarcely move them; then
my face began to feel the samp way. I
cailed for water and was terrified to find
that I had lost all sense of taste and my
jaw was getting stiff and I could scarce
ly articu.ate at all.

the horrible sense of. impending death

poison. I tried to ask if there was a
doctor anywhere near, but could not
even speak English now, and of course
they did not understand me. It was
simply horrible, and I thought surely I
was dying, for the dead feeling seemed
bo be extending, and I could scarcely
move a muscle. With a great effort I
made signs for a bottle of claret that I
happened to have in my bag, to use in
case of bad water. Most of this I drank,
and it braced me up some so that I
made them understand®that I wanted
hot water, and it seemed almost a year
before they got any. When it came,
although they could not bear tlieir
hands in it, I put both hands and feet
into it without feeling it. Then I made

Taxation in Chino.
The system of taxation in China is
unique. Taxes outside of Pekin are paid
on arable land only, the tax varying with
the crop, producing quality of the soil.
Inside the city of Pekin mere ie no tax
on land, house or personal property.
Goods brought to the city gates pay a
lekin tax, but are exempt from taxation
afterward. The only tax on land and
h< u.-es in Pekin is cm the sale of real es
tate, ten per cent, being charged on the
price obtained for the property sold.
There is also a t x resembling license
fee. Outside of Pekin, Chinese subjects
are liable to be called on to perform cer
tain duties whenever the emperor passes
through their districts, but this duty may
be avowed by the payment of a small
tax. All money spent on public account
in Pekin couies from the imperial treas-
ury, and the expenditure is not limited to
funds raised by taxation within the city.
The bulk of the people in Pekin pay no
taxes whatever. The man who owns his
house and lot and his implements of la
bor, enjoys his earnings without tax or
deduction.

A traveler who climbed the snow-cov

the officer in charge of the Signal Ser

the heat of summer,” he said, “there is
always enough snow to furnish all the
water needed.” “Does not life become
weary and desolate here, so far from the
world?” “So much so that I sometimes
fear it will drive me crazy. My duties
are light; they require only an occasional
inspection of the instruments. The
rest of the time I can only read. Too
much reading becomes wearisome. Some

summer robes. I lower the glass; the
summer scene is gone. Green trees, an

like creatures in a dream, and I am the
only living thing in a world of eternal
ice and snow and science.”
