Write the careers Of all the great

other men with richer deeds and hold
their names in higher esteem, but those
are not the points of comparison. The
great achievements of most men of
history were under conditions that did
not exist in China during the many
years that Ii Hung Chang has been

the people against him and ne has felt
at the same time the deadly enmity of
the advisers of the throne, and even of
the throne itself.
Ii Hung Chang rose from clerk in
the civil service. and the blood of a
noble ancestry did not flow in his
veins. Any Chinese may become no.
bleman of the highest rank through a
series of graduations. Regular civil
service examinations permit him to adj
vance step by step. Even Coolie may
become prime minister, and, though
highly improbable, it is not impossible,
that prime minister, with the powers
and a cruel fate against him, might
become Coolie.
Ii Hung Chang fought his way up
in the face of the bitterest opposition,
and as he forced his way up he forced
China up with him, compelling her to
adopt improvements that have given
the country her present standing
among progressive nations.
Romantic literature doesn't furnish a
stronger story than that which covers
the rise of Ii Hung Chang from OBJ
security to fame. He was born Febru-
airy II, 1922, and his biographers have
failed to find any great names in his
pedigree.
When twenty-five years old he was
locally known for his erudition, and
was appointed to a small Office. 1t was
in 1861, when 80 years old, that he dem
onstrated what kind of metal was in
him. He had reached the position of
taotai, or project, of the district of XII
angsu, which was then a hotbed of re-
volt. His success in putting down the
rebellion there was SO remarkable that
year later he was appointed acting
general of the forces about Shanghai
and Sung Kiang. There is where his
masterful knowledge of European af-
fairs showed itself He was the one
man in China who recognized the in
feriority of the Chinese arms and the
incompetency of its military code.
He engaged European generals and
made the army learn the tactics of
modern warfare. 1t was during that
period that Chinese" Gordon, after
wards killed in Khartoum by Ell Mad
his troops while defending the British
garrison there, was engaged. So also
were the French generals. Bungoveine
and Giguei. This was what is known
as the TAPPING rebellion, perhaps the
largest and bloodiest of Chinese his
tory. More than half the entire coun-
try had risen, the purpose being to
restore the Ming dynasty, which the
Tartars had turned out.
1t is on record that 100000 persons
were killed during this rebellion. But
it was put down finally by the directing
arm of Lii Hung Chang, and in rccog-
milton of that invaluable service he
was made governor of Kiangsu, impe-
rial commissioner for foreign trade,
general of all the Chinese forces, and
supreme adviser to the throne.

If toad's mouth be forced open and

is because he has no ribs and cannot
dilate his chest; therefore he swallows
