Chinese Business Honesty.
With due respect for others the
Chinaman Is perhaps the most honor
able and upright business man in the
world - today. His business principles
are founded entirely upon honesty,
and he adheres to his policy with the.
insistence of a leech. The chase aftei
dollars stops if he has to resort to 1
low trick! to get them. Of course, a
little thing like telling a falsehood
occasionally does, not bother him so
mucn; but when it comes to plotting
and scheming to defraud some one
the task becomes- distasteful. The
equal of the Japanese in initiative and
foresight, he is much their superior
when integrity is concerned. A Jap
anese does not think twice before de
ciding to get the best of you. He cal.
culates that you are liable to change
your mind or get out of reach if he in
dulges in a little mental debate as to
the .propriety of cheating you. The

his wounds he rushed to his dead and

" Sergeant Brinkley was close to the
