NO CHINESE TYPEwRITERs.

Typewriters are now made for use in
nearly hundred different languages,
and they are sold all over the world;
but there is still one ieatnation which,
for very simple reason. has no type
writer's that write its tongue. That ma
ton is China. The English alphabet
has 26 letters, the Russian So. The
typewriters produced for the Russian
market is the largest made; but no type
writer could be made that would begin
to be big enough for the Chinese lang
uage which has no alphabet, but as
represented by sign characters, OF
which there are about $4,000. OF the
great number of words found in the Eng
lish language only a small proportion are
used for ordinary purposes of speech OF
the same true Of The characters used in
the Chinese language; but the number
of Chinese characters commonly used
is still far greater than could be'put on
any typewriter. So this nation of 40OO,-
600, 900 people has no typewriter in its
own. But that doesn't mean that no
typewriters are soldi in China. More and
more Chinese are learning other lang
uage besides their own, and the mer-
chants and resident merchants use type
writers, and theySare used in legation
and in consular officers and in banks
and shipping officers and colleges and
by missionaries people. Altogether
there are sold in China a good many
typewriters. IN. Y. Sun.
