THE NEW CHINESE MINISTER, His Excellency Lin Tak-lin, the Chinese Minister, unde his first public appearance last weak when he presided over a meeting of the Chian Society at which Mrs Archibald Littledelivered an address on "Progress in Claina." His Excellency, who tunde an admir able chairmann, was very cordially received, Ha said that Mrs Little's reputation was world-wide and ho expressed gratitude to her and other European ladies for their humano work which had done so much to elieve the waroon of China-from the pain and suffering caused by the practice of footbinding. He admitted that this was one of the most criminal of the vice of of China, but it was a custom which had prevailed for 1,000 years. His Excellency considered that the reform which was gradually being brought about in connec- tiyn with footbinding was isoro beneficial than the anti-opium crusade, for the baneful lubit of opium sucking was dying out of itself.
