Chinese women.

Mrs. Baldwin, missionary to China,
gives some interesting facts in regard to
the women Of that country. She says
girls have no choice Of their husbands;
the young girl is sold by her parents at
the highest price they can obtain for
her, until after they are married. If he
chooses he can be divorced from her for
talking too much; if he becomes poor
or gets tired of her, he sells her again.
In the coolest weather the large-footed
women are not allowed to wear stock
ings, and cannot dress in any other
celor than black or blue The manner
in which they make their feet small is
by binding the four toes under the foot,
which they keep bound up for about
eleven years, when the foot becomes
dead. have walked through the streets
when the women would brush against
my dress so as to gee my feet, 80 that
they could tell to what class | belonged.
l would say to them, i will show
you my feet, but do not pull my clothes,
as it is rude" When l would expose
my fjet to them they would exclaim
" VIII, have you no real ladies in Amer
ica2J And the only way that l could
make them believe that we had was by
telling them that the women read books
ike men, which utterly astounded them,
as the real Chinese is broughtup in the ut
most ignorance, and they only marry in
the rich families, because they know and
do so little, and need so much waiting
upon that it takes n rich husband to sup.
port them. If you ask Chinese woman
how many children she has, she will give
You only the number Of boys. She has
to be asked the second time how many
girls she has, as they are thought so little
of that in many cases they are killed as
soon as born. A large-feoted woman
told me once that her first child was a
little girl, and she described to me how
she loved the little one. My husband
went out" she said brought in tub
ot water. begged him to spare its life,
but be took the little one and put its
head in the water, and held it there until
it was dead. My second babe was q
daughter, and it was served the same as
the first: the third child was a boy; he
lived until he was about four years old,
then the gods got angry and killed him.
Then my husband died; and it l eat
anything that is nice, and If | wear good
clothes. my relatives become angry and
treat me harshly." Even in our Chris
tian churches in China the women are
not allowed in the same room with the
men, but are partitioaed off in lattice
work room.

"shaIke ser UD."

An exchange says: About week ago
the residents of Mount Washington,
Allegheny county, were thrown in a
state of excitement by the report that a
mineral spring had been found on the
premises Of a citizen, who, for the sake
of euphony and alliterativeness, may be
called Mr.. Maurice Maginnis, on Syca-
more street. Delegations provided
with tin cups and oyster cans, barrels
and beer kegs, cups aud kettles, visited
Maginnis' sulphur spring Frequent
imbibing resulted in but one verdict
Maginnis fortune was made; the water
was better than Saratoga. Envious
neighboFs affected to scorn the report
and went for samples to compare with
the newly discovered elixir OF health;
Kissengen and Saratoga, Congress and
Geyser were bought by the bucketful,
and sips of the imported taken alter
nately with those Of Maginnis' spring.
The test was severe, but Maginnis tri-
umphed. All we're forced to admit that
the water was stronger, purer and infi-
nitely more pelatable. The well was
drained almost dry BY Che run for the
health-givipg beverage, and en Satur-
day last q torpedo was exploded to
ashake 'er up. 1t succeeded in doing
40. as q lost cat, missed for the past five
days, was raised from its watery grave.
They don't discuss mineral wells on oye'

MEMPHIS TENN. SATURDAY EVENING AUGUST q 1878

A doctor IN Lowell, Massachusetts, Is
excited upon the subject Of rowing, aud
he writes to Boston newspaper that
death worse than cholera is in the
whole thing. One man gave out from
congestion at Springfield; one died at
St, John. More will be sick. Men can
not row in that way without rupturing
the heart and congesting the lungs, with
a score of minor ailments. Let the col
lege faculties prohibit rowing at once.
They have got to do it. There is too
much excitement in the world.
