Excerpt from The Knight of the Chinese Dragon These facts find expression in the youthful Knight who haltingly treads the measures of this romance. Naive and visionary, he is not aware that he can never stake his dreams to a sod foundation. He treads upon thin air and believes it granite. He knocks his head against the merest vapor and believes it adamant. Like every romantic poet, who has weathered in our unkindly climes, he rapidly frets his soul to tatters.

Excerpt from The Chinese Dragon Chinese geomancy for ages has looked to the dragon as a means of determining the fates and fortunes of the Sons of Han. Until very recently comparatively few Chinese would build a house or bury a corpse without first consulting a geomancer, who would. In one way or another, refer to its probable influence upon his action. It is, moreover, a generally accepted belief that every twelfth hour, day, month, and year of the lunar calendar are under the dragon's dominating control. Chinese history records scores of appearances of the king of beasts through the four thousand or more years since the age of the three mythical rulers. Appearances of the dragon are connected with the stories of many prominent characters of China's past. Perhaps the most noteworthy ref erence is one which states that two dragons as guards of honor visited the home of Confucius on the day that great sage was born. These frequent references to the dragon are considered, for the most part, by the majority of Chinese scholars quite as authentic as the statements about the famous worthies themselves.

Excerpt from Under the Chinese Dragon: A Tale of Mongolia Mr. Ebenezer Clayhill was a man who impressed his personality upon one, so that those who had once obtained but a passing glimpse of him could not fail but recognise him, however long afterwards. 'Fust it's his nose what strikes yer, ' had declared old Isaac Webster, when ensconced with his bosom friends of an evening down in the snug parlour of the 'Three Pigeons.' 'It's just the most almighty one as ever I seed, and I've seed a power of noses, I have, Mr. Jarney.' He sniffed and looked across at that individual, as if he challenged him to disprove the statement, or even to doubt it; for Jarney was a cross-grained fellow, an old weather-beaten boatman, into whose composition quite a considerable quantity of salt seemed to have been absorbed. The man was short in stature and in manner. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Lion and Dragon in Northern China China has been worked out. The demand for books that profess to deal in a broad and general way with China and its people as a whole has probably, indeed, been fully satisfied: but China is too vast a country to be adequately described by any one writer or group of writers, and the more we know about China and its people the more strongly we shall feel that future workers must confine themselves to less ambitious objects of study than the whole Empire. The pioneer who with his prismatic compass passes rapidly over half a continent has nearly finished all he can be expected to do; he must soon give place to the surveyor who with plane-table and theodolite will content himself with mapping a section Of a single province.

Excerpt from The Blue Dragon: A Tale of Recent Adventure in China The blue dragon, chosen as a title for this story, is the national emblem of China, adopted as such by a desire to atter and propitiate that spirit of evil considered to be the most powerful. As the dragon is believed 'to be big enough and strong enough to overcome and devour all the other Wicked genii who continually vex Chinese life, the Wise men of the Black - haired People thought it best to have him on their side, and consequently accorded him the highest honor in their power to bestow. As we of America chose the eagle, strong est of visible air spirits, for our national emblem, so the Chinese chose the most powerful of invisible spirits in whose existence they believe as firmly as we do in the existence of things that we can see, hear, or feel. In the story thus entitled, I have endeavored to give an idea. Of What China has been, is, and may become through education and development, how She is regarded, and how her people are being treated by other nations, and what causes She has for resentment against those Who are taking ad vantage of her feebleness to despoil her.
