Chinese Woman

Mrs. Shah, wife Of the new Chinese
consul in New York, is delighted
with America and particularly with
American women, though she does not
care for American clothes. She has
been in this country but three months.
Mr. Shah took the place Of Mr.
Tseng, the former Consul during the
month of May. The former mistress
of the consulate was an Englishwoman
who met and married her husband
while he was attached TO the Chin3se
Legation in London. The present mis-
tress belongs to an old Chinese family
but as this is her first visit 10 this
country, she speaks but little English.
This omission, however, will soon be
remedied, for with the assistance of a
private tutor It won't be long before
she will have sufficient command OF
the language for all ordinary purposes
Every day for several hours she dill
igently applies herself to the study OF
English, while Land, little girl OF
twelve years, attends the private schod
of Miss Catherine Miller, in Perry
street.
Land is a regular boarder at th'
school, spending her Sundays only a
home. Power, a son, is a dear littl'
chap, but too young for even kinder
garten. In his little suit of brown linei
ne is very cunning and is the recip
lent of no end of attention, which h
doesn't particularly fancy.
A third child, a small baby, still re
mains with relatives in China.
Though the children dress in Englis
fashion Mr.. and Mrs. Shah retain tn
Oriental costume. But otherwise thei
housekeeping is conducted after tn
fashion of Americans.

The decision of a court In an In
surance case that noon Is noon
standard time instead of solar,
where standard time Is generally
recognized, will have the effect OF
stirring up the old controversy
which has been going on ever since
the business of the railroad de-
mands the concession. The fact
that clocks supposedly keeping So
lar time are right with the sun only
four times a year doesn't freeze the
advocates of what they fondly but
foolishly declare Is the time set by
the Creator. No two successive days
are of exactly the same length. All
the ordinary methods of computing
time are based on measures as arti-
fetal as are the foot or pound. The
decision was appropriately rem.
dered almost 20 years to dav at

The Small Pox
Situation.

In view of the tact that smallpox
Is prevalent In parts of our State
and that the time of year now APP
proaches when Its ravages are at
the worst. 1t becomes absolutely
necessary that the heslth boards
and county commissioners take ev-
cry precaution to be prepared to
handle Immediately any suspicious
case, so that the chances of expos
ure may be kept at the minimum.
In the southeastern portion Of
the State the mortality has been
| gradually on the increase so that
we now have death rate of from
IL to 20 percent.
The fact that In the past the
death rate has been low Is no rea-
son for relaxing our vigilance, for
at any time the disease may become
malignant and wide spread.
The State Board of Health In
regular session issues the following
recommendations to the medical
profession and the people Of the
State, and urgently request that
they be followed.
Vaccination should be urged on
every one, and revaccination should
be insisted on at every possible
exposure to small pox.
No child should be allowed to at
tend school who cannot show a
certificate from the family physi-
clan that there has been success
full vaccination.
Physicians should impress the
people with the fact that there IS
no danger from bad effects from
vaccination under the present care
full methods of obtaining pure vi
rus.
Physicians should Immediately
report to the local health officer
any suspicious case, so that 1t may
be carefully watched until dag,
nosis Is fully established.
The Board orders that children
should be kept away from school
for three weeks after recovery from
diphtherla and four weeks after
recovery from scarlet fever or
smallpox.
The superintendent of all our
State institutions are urged to have
all inmates and employees vaccin'
ated, and to use the utmost care In
admitting applicants from infected
districts.
By order of the Board,
