A Baby Of High Degree.

1t was at the residence of the Chinese
Minister, and the representative of the
Republican had called to inquire about
the health of the Minister'S baby
daughter. Tsu Shan Puhg, First Secre-
tary of Legation, had said that the very
young lady was in excellent health and
spirits and was growing rapidly. Then
the reporter said he had very delicate
question to ask, and begged the secre-
tary not to be offended; but if the in
quiry was violation of Oriental Ell
quette to at once inform him and they
would talk about the weather or some
other harmless subject. cit is custom
airy, you know" continued the reporter,
:. in this country to publish quite minute
details of the private life of high-born
babies and
81 understand" said the secretary,
over whose face there had crept smile
of appreciation and amusement, "you
want to know about the baby's feet.
Some one has said that they were al
ready bound. l assure you that it is no
such thing. Her feet are just like any
American baby's."
but is it not true that the growth of
the feet of noble Chinese girls is stopped
early in life?"
Certainly it is true, just as it is true
that the waists of all high-born Ameri-
can ladies are compressed" and the
secretary illustrated by COMPRISING his
own rather slender waist with his two
hands. "To make the ladies' feet
small" he continued, "is Chinese
fashion; to make their waists small an
American fashion. 1t is a demand of
fashion or custom in both cases. and
nothing more"
"At what age are the feet boundr"
"When the little girl is six or seven
years old. The process is so gradual
that, / think. there is no pain about it
whatever no more than when an Amexs
icansgirl binds her waist"

What glorious eeeds, my suffering brother
Would they unite, in love and right,
And cease their acorn for one another
Oppression's heart might be imbued,
With kindlin2 drops of loving kindness,
And knowledge pour from shore to shore,
Light on the mental blindness.
All fraud aud warefare, lies and wrong,
All vice and cr,me might die together;
And milk and corn, TO each man born,
Be free IS warmth in summer weather.
The meanest wretch that ever trod--
The deepest sunk in guilt and sorrow,
Might stand erect in selt-respect,
And share the tseming word to- morrow
What might be done! THIS might be done
And mere than this, my suffering brother
More than the tongue e'er said or suug--
Ii men were wise and loved each other.
