VAST EMPIRE IN SOUTH SEAS British Rule Is Hardly Reals ized by Americans. Judson C. Welliver writes in the Country Magazine that our impres- sions about the Australasian empire of the future are rather vague, be- mere bigness. Thus the island of New Guinea, the greatest island in the world, if we classify Australia as a continent, was, before the war, divided between the British, Dutch and Ger- mans. The British have now taken over, in the name of Australia, the German claims, We think of New Guinea as a con- siderable patch of dry land in the ex- panse of the southern ocean, but have difficulty realizing that if it could be | laid down on the United States, one | end would be at Portland, Me, the other near Omaha, and that it would blot out an area about twice the size tion of these United States. It con- tains vastly greater resources than Germany, also about a thousand white people and 500,000 aborigines, largely cannibals. essentially British is quite obvious. Austrafasia aims at leadership in the south temperate zone, on lines cu- riously parallel to those by which Great Britain has become leader in the North. With inexhaustible coal and iron, she is creating fron and stcel and shipbuilding industries and a navy of her own. The war era has been mark- ed by the completion of Australia's tive reminder of the beginning of our own Union Pacific. Imprisoned In Coffins. | | The most terrible prison in the world | is in Urga, Mongolia. It comi&tL of a triple stockade enclosing a number of underground dungeons which are pitch dark and almost devoid of ventilation. But this is not all. The wretched pris- oners condemned to inhabit them are shut up separately in heavy, iron- clamped chests, in shape resembling coffins. There is a small hole in the side of each, just big enough for the | poor wretch inside to thrust out lis head or his manacled hands. They see daylight for but a few minutes daily, when their food is thrust into their box-prisons through the hole. They can not lie down flat, they can not sit, for they are not only man- acled but chained to the coffins. The majority are in for life sentbnces, and no prisoner is ever allowed out of his box under any circumstances, except | when he is to be executed or, as hap- pens very rarely—to he set: free, change in real estate or personal[be asisted b; | will be held on January 12.

(By mail to the | United Press.)—*“The mym is dark .and I am far from home:’ . That’s how Lady Astor feels in the | !House of Commons—the only woma |among the 600 members. At least | that's how she said she felt in ¢ | -noech, at the Westminster Centra’ hall. | She announced that she had onl* | | four minutes to speak, but she ma~ ' ~ged to read a selection from the New | | Testament, to touch on Ireland, Ar- ! menia, education, temperance, an | Ithe efficacy of prayer. Salesman Would Wait but He Had No' Idea of Losing Sight of a Possibility. Some yeats ago I went into a sfore to inquire the price of something, an' expensive thing this was, that I wanted | to buy some day when 1 had the price, | says a writer in the New York Heraid. They were just as nice to me as they | would have been if I had come in| ready to buy and plank down the eash. | Then for the time heing I forgot all about it, but they didn't. About a year after my v to the store the salesman I had scen there came in to see me. He was a very agreeable gentleman and in no way insisten he had just looked in on the chance that now I was ready to buy; but my bank account hadn't looked up to a great extent and I was not ready, as I told bim; but T added that when I was ready I would come in, and! I would come to him, That, T thoughts ended it as far as hearing from them was concerned ; but | not so. A year later I had another | call from the salesman, my friend, if he will now permit me so to call him, | on the same errand; a pleasant call | and a pleasant little talk, but with the sume result as before; and now, ! a year to a day after that second call, | We ! had our usual pleasant little talk, and | then I asked him: | “Don’t"you ever give up a prospect?” | To which he answered, smilingly : “We never give up a prospect NII he dies.” Drawing an Audience. —_— The Superior People.

As an Epglish®wowan who went about America for nearly three years, making friends, East, West, South and North, I ought to be able to contrast the women of the two countries, but the more one travels the more one re- alizes that “folks is just folks” all the world over. American women are quicker at the aptake as regaids friendliness and kindnesses; but the tongue-tied Eng- much in the long run. can’s manjiers are more cosmopolitan, her clothes are better put on, she has more good stories in her after-dinner speeches. RBut if you compare corresponding types—as most fravelers oinit to do—they e “both me color under their skin,” L is a woman's country. The boy belongs to his mother, and most women give their own opinions on all —quite curiously well ex- d—without any suggestion of having gone to a man for help, | The Englishwoman speaks more shortly and with a suggestion of hav- ing “asked her husband at home”; but I doubt if the Englishwoman is worse ofl, since England is the home of the prover s the good man saith sy we; but as the good wife S0 must it he.” One very noiiceable charm in the Awmerican woman is her quickness in starting conversation with a stranger and her aptness in ing something pleasant at once. 1 cannot help think- ing that if 'Engiish nurserie§ and shool rooms taught thi it would | huve widely international results and put more reality into the League of Nations.—TLucy H.
