Fifbm Korea.

Three months ago Miss CSrfon wrote her brother in Sioux City: "The newspapers would not be fearful Japan would run out of men if they could see the. hosts of able bodied Japanese men here in Taiku, Korea; nor could I per-•ceiye any dearth of them in Japan as I passed through. Already they have begun to over, run this coun­try. Within sight of our windows a Japanese house has arisen with­in three weeks and trees have been set out to start a silk-worm indus­try. It is perfectly marvelous the way their settlement is springing up."

A month later she tells her fath­er of a brief vacation visit to Fu-Ban and -says of the result: "It has made me even more contented here. I have rested and feel ready for another try at this awful lan­guage."

April 18 she writes "I have written my-second quarterly exam­ination. The spelling is some­thing dreadful. The Koreans do not know how to spell and often the words are pronounced far dif­ferent from the spelling. The weather is most beautiful, the gar­dens flourishing with peas, beans, radishes, lettuce and asparagus and the fruit trees are all a bloom." April 80: "Thursday we visited a Buddist temple among the moun­tains where there is an excellent spring. The walk of three miles gave us some fine mountain climb-, ing and we were fearfully tired the next day; but it did us all good. Tomorrow the through trains begin to run between Fusan and Seoul, a night train and a day train wiin dining car and sleepers attached. Eight more locomotives recently arrived by ship and ten times us many more are enroute for this le­gion and Manchuria, we are relia­bly informed. Our railroad here is regular guage while only narrow gaage roads are in Japan."' 01 the missionary work proper she says "Today was communion day and five women and girls. were;

baptized; also several men and several girls of the class I taught, entered the catechuraenate class preparing for baptism. How much good it does one to see resulis ! * * Mr. Sidebothum of Fusan has been with us two weeks helping with the training class for mission­ary helpers. The Ix-st of these Ko­reans know so very liltie. They have to he taught arithmetic and geography, even the geography of their own comitry. My language teacher attended the class most of the time. * * We have very re­cently had the pleasure of visits from others of the Fusan mission­ary force, among them one Aus­tralian lady, and one Sabbath we had with us one of the Southern M. E. missionaries, a man of ten years experience in the work though his first years were in China. He pronounces the Koreans a stol­id people but having often a keen sense of humor."

A fortnight later she tells of the visit of one the missionaries and his wife to a distant village to con­duct there also a class for Bible instruction: "They had a safe journey though going they stopped at an inn where the day before thir­ty-five robbers of a band devastat­ing the country had also taken a meal. The return was made by another route and all the way by chair as iu the old days. The class proved a success. Twenty three women were enrolled for btudy forenoons, but afternoons were giv­en up to the Korean women sight seers. On Sunday they had a court yard meeting, with three hundred women present. Mr. Ad­ams preached and had two hours work iu the class. * * How to car­ry on the work with no more mis­sionary money than was actually Used two years ago while the work has itself in that time quadrupled, we.do not know. * * Many stran­gers made their appearance at church today, sight seeing people observing the national spring holi­day—Buddha's birthday."

May 30 she writes "I sit at my desk with a knot of colors pinned ou my shoulder. I wonder if you are observing Memorial Day. I

have just retained from ' another tour to one of the country villages. Our party this time oonsisted of Mr. and Mrs. Bruen and baby and baby's nurse, Mr. McFarlund and his teacher and myself, besides two cpolieB with the loads and our four chair coolies. We need to take al­most as much to stay two nights as a month. Our journey was the first thirty or forty miles by rail­road, then the remaining ten mileB by chair. The men of course walk. It was my first journey by chair and the wind blew terribly, worse than most of our Dakota windy d$ys. Upon our arrival we found the court yard of the leader's house full to welcome us and sight see. The baby is a constant source of wonder. The presence of a for­eigner always causes something of a stir, so the appearance of two parties, including women, brought all the .people we could possibly handle. Mr. Bruen and his cook had arrived anChour or so before us, go we soon had cots up to rest while supper was being prepared over a charcoal burner in the court yard, of the church. Really it is not half so bad as one would think to live so. The worst is the lack of privacy. We covered the paper windows and doors, yet knew all the time we were being watched like caged animals. Part of the time on Sunday it fell to me to do my best to give the gospel to the hundred and fifty women gathered. I sang and sang and read some from the bible and talked as I found opportunity."

The next day she says "I have just returned from down in the city where I held my first claBs with the women called "saxie," a term applied to either a young married woman or a girl who has entered upon her womanhood. Be­ing a "saxie" myself, we have something m common. There were five present, not so bad when you knoW how closely they are kept in.

"Two of our missionaries from tlais station while at a village last Sunday about thirty miles from the coast southwest of Taiku heard the cannonading of the great na-!

val engagement. Surely the end of the war is at hand, now that the' admiral of the Baltic fleet is a pris-1

oner in Japan. | "Fifteen highway-men were

hanged hero iu i'aiku one day re­cently, and others at a previous date. Korean punishment is sum-: mary indeed. The execution is in the market place, on market day when alt the country side is repre­sented in full lurce. But Atueri-! cans are all safe even while travel­ing.

"We saw a procession of many lights in the city last night indi­cating that the Japanese had won a victory. They recently celebrat­ed the formal opening of the rail­way. The display of flags was great and a Japanese band played American music when the train came in. During the day they shot off paper works and at night fire works, the most beautiful and taking the shapes of liowers and animals, etc., which lasted longer

The average man doeB not save to exceed ten per cent of liis earn­ings. He must spend nine dollars in living expenses for every dollar Baved. That being the case he cannot be too careful about unnec-cessary expenses. Very often a few cents properly invested, like buying seeds for his garden, will nave several dollars outlay later on. It is the same in buying Chn mberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarihoea Remedy. It costs but it few cents, and a bottle of it iu the house often saves a doctor's bill of several dollars.
