When Ah Tcha had eaten his Evening Rice, he took lantern and entered the largest of his mills
We are the Shen, demons of the sea
Tiao Fu snatched up her little-used embroidery scissors. Snip, Snip, Snip

Three children and the old man

Therefore—upon his donkey—the contrary husband started for Tsun Pu
Then he seized the plaques and flung them from him
The royal generals . . . knelt before Hai Low and bumped their heads in the dust
The king crawled under his throne
The king and his generals gazed across the river
The house of Weng Fu was luxurious in the extreme
The first portrait he painted was that of Ying Ning, a monstrous ugly maiden
So the seventh demon sped away taking the sea with him
So Chai Mi sat beside the river and sewed and wept

More and more sad came the music
Meng Hu could imagine a knife at his throat
Man working at the table
It was the howl of a wolf
Kneeling before a tree
It was a well-plucked traveler who returned
'I—I—I—am hungry,' stammered Han Hsin
How could she make beds when her hair needed burnishing
House under a tree
He made a V of the bowstring
He was a weighty elephant—amid the cabbages
He kept his forehead tight-pressed to the floor
Han Hsin raised a bridge from island to mainland
Flowers in the rain
Drinking Tea

By look and action he was a maiden

At that same hour a basket was found in the garden
A whanging of wings that lifted . . . Up . . . Higher . . . Swifter
A necklace
. . . And cut leaf-shaped pieces
A helping hand

Children eating their meal
Among the peasantry and labouring people of China, all are cooks. A little earthen-ware stove and an iron pan is all that is required. Rice is their principal food, which is simply boiled, and then a little fat of pork or a salt fish put into the pan to mix with it and give it a relish; they drink little else besides water, which is usually carried about in a gourd slung on the back; and they require no table nor chairs. Each person has his bowl and his chop-sticks, and squatting down on his haunches before the pan, he makes a hearty and contented meal. It is quite gratifying to see a party of youngsters making their dinner in this way in the open air.
