TELLS OF PROGRESS N CHINA
REV. r. E. CHAMBERS, MISSION.
AIRY, DELIVERS ADDRESS.
Speaks in Fort Myer Heights Chapel
Proposal to Give People
Constitution.

Progress in China was the theme of ar
informal address by Rev. r. E. Chambers
missionary, at Fort Myer Heights Bap.
| fist Chapel yesterday. Mr.. Chambers is
in charge of the publication work of the
Baptists at Canton. where he has been a
resident for fourteen years. He left there
in February to spend q year in this coun-
try and came Saturday night to Washing
ton as the guest of ]. J. Darlington. He
is a native of Bedford county, Va. where
he received his call to mission work al
Mount Pleasant Church on his fathers
farm. His sister, Mrs H. p. Brown, is a
member of the Fort Myer Heights Church
and he has other relatives here and in
Baltimore and Virginia
There have been more changes In China
the speaker explained, in the past four
teen years than in the fifty years pre-
vious, since the beginning OF the awaken
ing there to western civilization. Santa
also indicated by the proposal to give the
people a constitution.
The greatest single step in the progress
of the human race, in the opinion of the
to abolish the old forms of education and
introduce the new. The whole educa-
tional system Is being reorganized alonG
western lines. There are to be UNIVERSE
ties for the great Clues, SeCOHQhTS SCHoois
for the walled towns and primary schools
for the country.
Possess Noble Civilization.
81 have been in the elegant homes OF
the Chinese and talked with their trained
scholars" the speaker said. land they
are men Of learning and of great intelli-
gence and ability. They have noble
civilization. because the teachings were
right as far as they went.
perhaps the most encouraging feature
of Chinese progress Is the rapid growth
of Christian churches among them
Where about 900 Baptist converts were
struggling along with the work at Canton
eight years ago, now there are more than
1000, and the churches are not in the
hands of the missionaries. They are
differed and controlled by Chinese. They
collect money among themselves and pay
their own expenses. They maintain mis-
sion work among their own people. and
the most effective preachers of Christian
ity today are converted Chinese
Mr.. Chambers said that Chinese societies
are making great and successful EFFORTS
for moral advancement. They have anti
opium and anti-foot-binding societies,
which are doing much to suppress those
two evils, and similar work Is being UNI
dertaken along other lines.

Scaly Legs in Fowls

A correspondent asks the Circle
Magazine for January about the
treatment Of scaly legs in fowls, and
wants to know how to cure it. F..
H. Valentine replies as follows:
If the birds are only moderately
affected. or are particularly valua-
bic for breeding purposes, they may
be cured readily, if the treatment be
thorough.
"Scaly legs" is caused by a mite
technically known as sarcoptes
mutans. which penetrates beneath
the epidermic scales on the legs and
feet. Some birds are more suscep-
tibe to it than others, possible be-
cause the scales grow tighter on
their legs.
Turkeys, pheasants, some cage
birds, as we'll as other birds, are at
tackled by is, but water fowl are
considered immune, The disease is
contagious, Energetic measures are
necessary.
Isolate all affected birds. Clean the
houses thoroughly. District with
carbolated whitwasb of some other
good disinfectant. Soak the legs of
the birds in warm water contain
ing little soap, to loosen the scales.
Remove these so far as possible
without being too severe. This will
enable the remedy to come into con-
tact will the insects, which are next
the flesh. There are several good
remedies. Kerosene is good. Into
a quart measure or deep pail, nearly
filled with water, put a tablespoon
flu! of kerosene. and dip the legs into
this, repeating after three days, and
again, if necessary. to effect a cure
But this will bleach the legs. One
part of sulphur to ten parts of vase
line or lard we'll rubbed into the
scales is good Apply every other
night for a week or ten days. Some
of the liquid germicides are good.
We have used zenoleun. one part
to twenty parts water. in which the
the legs were dipped. A good car
bolic salve is good But be thorough,
and don't let the trouble spread.

The January American Boy.

The buoyancy and happy hopeful
ness of youth as shown in the smil-
ing faces of the boys in the picture
{ in colors } which adorns the front
cover page of the January American
Boy conveys pleasing anticipations
for 1909. The contents are in keep.
ing with the season. Capt. Wyn
Roosevelt's story, Frontier Boys on
the Overland Trial, is sure to delight
the boys, and That Dillingham; Boy
continues with undated interest.
Of the fine short stories. there are {:
The First Marathon, telling how the
news of the victory Of the Greeks
over the Persians was conveyed to
Athens, the origin of the now popu
lar Marathon race; An American Boy
in China gives the results Of a boys
inquisitiveness in entering the For
hidden City; Examination shows a
boys splendid heroism and self-sacri-
flee; The Bread Upon the Waters is a
nice story illustrating how great
good was done by a little timely
assistance Deficient in Caesar is a
fine basketball story. The Chase of
the Meteor is the story of bravery
in the face Of great danger, and
Uncle Joshua's Joke tells how a
practical joker received his reward.
