Some of us have established schools- among them; others hospitals, and still others are ready to minister to and care for their lepers.
GREAT WORK OF PHILANTROPY,
"The work among the lepers in China will bring great results, as among all the effəris for the welfare of suffering humanity, it is no doubt one of the greatest, because it will stand, to all as a practical example of ge philanthropy, and because the poor lepers are easily satisfied. It is rekord that one dollar (gold) a month will provide a leper with food
"As to the real mesace of the disease, there is a wide divergence of sciemfié opinion. 1 r. Leonard F. Pitkin, physician-in-chief of the Institute of Dermatology of the Cuy of New York, does not hesitate to assert that there may be, within the next ten years, at least 150,000 to 500,000 lepers included among the inhabit any of the United States, while Dr. Morrow, of New York, has stated that the extensive spread of leprosy in this 'cuntry must be regarded as a possibility, rather than a strong probability.
"That leprosy is a disease with which medical science has shown its utter inability so cope, has been recognized by the governing bodies of many nations, some of whom have adopted measures for the isolation of the victims of this dread malady. Other Governments, the Chin- esa for example, bave taken practically no steps in the matter, and the poor unfortunates are dragging out a miserable existence, and do pending for their living silely upon the alms of the charitable.".

It is the custem that when'a Chideze from Niogpo dies at Shanghai, his body is placed In a cofid and stored away until the pp- portunity offers to send it to Ningpo, and the matter is one that comes within the function of the Ningpo guild. There were a great many coffins containing dead-bodies so stored in the French concession at Shanghai, and the French Municipal Council, in the interests of health, ordered their removal. The Ningpo guild resisted, and when the French authority determined to calorce its order a riot occurred in which several Chinese were shot by the French police and volunteer force. In retaliation the
Angpo guild issued a 'secret order for the suspension of all business, which resulted in several large steamships remaining at their whaives for weeks and the lost of much money. So long as the guild remained firm, every bratch of business which drew its vitality from that scuich was paralysed. It was only by a compromise in which concessions were made by both sides, that the dispute was finally selled. Commenting ogon, this incident Mr. Jernigan says:--
"It is not too positive to write, that it is within the power of the guilds to interfere with commercial intercourse in China, to seriously impair the commercial relations of Western

FIRST IMPRESSIONS OF CONTON In April of that year Father Conrardy arrived in Canton, and, without loss of time, visited a leper village outside the city, although the American Consul had strongly advised agains doing so, fearing the lepers would not accord him proper treatment In that place, there were about 40 of the miserable wretches.
