METHODS OF REFORM IN CHINA AND THEIR NET RESOLIS.

This was really a remarkable proposal from such a man, supposed to represent the old-fashioned school, though patriotic in spirand inclined to the adoption of improvements in administering the present Government. This proposal was ordere to (1.) Early in the year 1900, a Decree was be carried into effect, but up to the present issued to the Viceroys and Governois of all the nothing has been done except in so far as a few Provinces, calling for suggestions as to the best members of the Hanlin with progressive ten- methods of reforms to be carried out whendencies, have, of theirown accord, begun the stu peace should be concluded with the foreign dy of new branches of learning.

This matter
to be called the Ministry of Government Affairs, or inaptly called, the Board of Regency. This Board is still in existence, but as it really con- sists of the lealing officials who are in the Cabinet, or who are prominent Viceroys, it seems to accupy an insignificant place in the Departments of the Government.
(6) On July gih, rot, an Edict was issued, however, been presented by that body to the calling on all the Chinese luisters abroad to Throne a few important memorials, which may select capable Chinese win had been studying be said to represent the prevailing ruling sentiin other countries, and to send them back to

There have,
Among the most important suggestions that have been made by the provincial authorities, the combined nemoral of Viceroys Liu K'un-yi and Chung Chil-tung stands supreme; it is in fact, a comprehensive treatise on reform worthy to take its place alongside of Viceroy Chang Chih-tung's book Learn. Viceroy Youn Shih-kai has also presented important memorials which have carried great weight. Several memorials presented by the late Vicer y at Canton, Tao Mu, have also contained worthy suggestion", but as some of them were not equally pleasing to the Court, they have been ignored or rejected.
(7.) On May 28th, in the same year, a long Decree was issued, ordering that the six Boards sweep away their abuses and extortions, and do away with the bondage of precedents and ancient regulations, and "to conduct the various business of State as may seem best under the circumstances" It was also or 'ered that the work of the Boards should be con-
ducted by those who are called secretaries, and not by those who are called clerks, lower in rank than the secretaries, but having really possessed the greatest power. Thes clerks have generally kept the records at their own houses, have been the ones who have known all the pre- cedenis, and whose good will has always been essential, if any business with their superiors was to be carried thigh successfully accord ing to rule and routine. So far as 1-kn w, some of the official pusts in "the rds have been given up, while the persons who have filled those posts have generally been given position under other names in the same Board In fact these men are the only perma ent staff of the Roards, and without their help the business of the Roards could not be carried put satisfactorily, As to sweeping away the abuses of the Boards, I would conclude that there is as much abuse today as there ever Was. As to giving up past precedents and old regulations, there has been some slight change; there is not as much slavish adherence to pre- cedent as has characterised the Chinese Gay- ernment in the past.

help the Government, their expenses to be borne by the Government. In ay be safely said that in the present régime, young men who have studied abroad, are lanked upon with mere favour than at any time during the past not excepting the Reform period of 1898. Both the previous and the present Ministers to Washington have studied abroad. The present Customs Taotai at Tientsin, the right-hand man of Yuan Shih-kai, also studied for s veral years in the States. There have not been many of such to attain a high position, but the attitude of the Government toward them is much more generous than before,—A, C. D. News. •

(4.) On the same day the previous Edict, June 3rd, another Edict was also issued to all the high Provincial Authori
'secretaries abolish unnecessary ties to and followers in the Provincial yamêns, and for the regular officials to personally and faithfully conduct their official business. So far as we know, this order has been left to the caprice of each individual official, and as a rule the crowds of hangers-on at the yaméns, with their red-tasselled bats, have not been dimin. ished. We noticed the other day that Governor Chao, in assuming his new post in Hunan, began to clear out the useless attendants con nected with the Governor's yamén, but I fancy that in a short time new attendants will appear, to take the place of those who have been dis missed. Now and then in the past, without any special Edict, there have been Governors who have really believed in the honest and economi- cal administration of office, but such have been the exception. Nothing, however, is more necessary than that one who has nothing to de should not be connected with any yamên. It in always these hangers on who nourish bribary, extortion and all forms of knavery, causing every yamén to be looked upon by the Chinese people as a tiger's den.

Thin children-even along to the age eighteen or twenty--are in danger from con- sumption, and from other wasting complaints. The children who starve, and the young men and women who are consumed-why, the very idea of it is frightful. For such as they there is always what the Bible calls a "mighty famine" in the land. Food, though it may be taken plentifully, does not nourish them. It makes no fat; it gives no strength. To prevent this, to cure this, to save the young ones at the mother's knees, and the bright
