SYMBOL SYSTEM of CHINA.
Its Ideagraphs supply the Basis of
Universal Language.


Chihchen Lofengluh is not only well as
sured of the perpetuity of 1.-The fiowery
kingdom" but he firmly believes that
the Chinese language is eminently
adapted for universal use. AS Chihchen is
the minister of his country at London and
man of note. his declarations In this
matter have aroused much attention. As
he puts the case:
The Chinese language is a purely SYM
bolic language, in ideagraphic language; all
other languages are phonetic or alpha
betical. A symbolic language never
changes as long as the idea TO be express
ed remains the same irea. 1t Is expressed
the same way. A work written in Chin
ese thousands of years ago can be read
now with ease and certainty. And a SYM
bolic language is a uniting influence.
The Chinese minister at Lordon points
out that Americans and Europeans al
ready use symbolic language in several
sciences-algebra, geodesy, etc, to much
advantage. He maintains that univer-
sal system of writing, which is so much
to be desired. now that the telegraph
has brought nations SO much nearer to-
gether will never be attained in any
other way than by code of symbols.
The world. he is sure, is in want of
universal language, and China is fully
prepared to furnish the symbol-system
which will supply 1.-THE long-felt want
