A Chinese Idea of Foreigners.

The following is Il quite modern Chi
nese conception of the foreigners
treatment of infectious cases: If an
epidemic broke out two foreigners tool;
the sick away and put them in IA little
room, washed them with lime water
and then locked them up so that no one
could see them on purpose that they
might soon de and not propagate the
disease. Wives and children might cry
and weep. but the foreigner would but
drive them away with sticks, for until
dead no one must see those faces
again. Better for all of us to jump in
to the sea than submit to this.
