Fant.Rinding in China.

Still further proof that the Chinese
woman is not a labor-burdened slave,
we find in the custom of foot-binding.
This heathenish attempt to improve
on Gods best work OF creation is said
by one tradition to have begun with
Pan Fei, a concubine of the Chi
dynasty, sol A. d., and by an other to
| have begun with Vas Niang, a beau
tiful concubine of the last emperor of
the Southern Tang dynasty, 975 A..
D., whose feet were ''cralnped in the
semb ance of a new moon" Ira
dition also says that it originated with
a beautiful princess who had club
feet, and by restoring to this method
completely concealed her deformity.
Still another tradition says it was re-
stored to by a crusty husband to keep
his wife from ''going a-gadding," and
as it worked so we'll, it was resorted
to by others, until, becoming a fash
ion, it was adopted by all. Where
ever the custom may have originated.
it is but little worse than the custom
of ladies lacing in civilized countries,
and adds as little in beauty to the
person on whom it is practised. The
best evidence attributes it to Vas
Niang.
The evils of foot binding-as, in
deed, the evils of anything that in
terferes with the natural development
of what God pronounced good-could
not perhaps be exaggerated, but the
pain connected with it might be, and
perhaps has been. There is pain,
great pain, when tho feet are first
bound; but if we judge from what we
see about us every day. namely, little
girls at play. and little beggar girls
running after US on the street begging
for a cash-for the beggars bind their
feet-we are compelled TO say that it
looks as if the pain connected with it
is not ver 1t is perhaps some
what similar to that connected with
the Strengthening of a club foot; and
as the bandages are not taken off at
night, there is perhaps not much more
pain suffered from it during a whole
lifetime than that suffered by our
ladies who wear tight shoes.
While we would not exaggerate the
pains of foot-binding, it is only just
to say that nothing can be said in its
favor. 1t no doubt adds to the wom-
ans beauty in the eyes of the Chinese,
for it is an all but universal custom,
but it takes away all her grace of
movement and much of her useful
ness. She is compelled to walk on
her heels, her knees being entirely
stiff. 1t impairs her usefulness es-
pecially among the country people,
for she helps to plant and harvest the
grain; but as a mother. which is her
principal business. it matters little
whether she can walk ornot. Indeed,
wealthy.ladies usually have a woman
on each side of them to support them;
though this is the result of fashion as
much as of weakness.-Isadc z. Head
