At a time when the Chinese were skilled farmers our European ancestors were career- ing around, with wooden clubs, their gar- ments consisting, mainly of a coat of paint. The ancient Briton did not apparently take kindly to the labour required to make the earth give up its fruits. They preferred to run after what a ribald age and an artistic humorist hos depicted as a heavy meal. As the writer is the Positivist Review puts it: When the feudal constitution was estab. lished by the Chou conquerors in the twelfth century BC, the Chinese people were wholly. agriculturists; and, owing to the fertility of the soil and the industry of the folk, the share of the annual produce that went to the governing upper class was fully a half of the crops, oflener more than less. The division between the two layers of Chinese society was as well marked as that between the ectoderm and the endoderm in the gastrula stage of a developing animal organism,. But as the tide of tillers moved down the valley of the Yellow River and up along its tribut- aries, industry assumed specialised forms, and when it reached the coast of what is now the Shantung province, commerce add ed its quals to the steadily growing mass of wealth. But the intelligence of the central authority failed to keep pace with the pro- Its power dwindled, and gress of the times. the vassal princes, growing more opulent and independent, gave free rein to the prompt ings of rivalry and ambition.

For the nascent germs of the middle class he could hardly conceal.liis dis- like. There was no place for them in his ideal of a properly constituted feudal polity." The people were willing to contribute their quota to the maintenance of their overlords, who remitted a part of their wealth to the nominal Emperor of China, but so far as the Government of the provinces was con- cerned and so far as it affected the babits and customs of the labouring classes, they sturdily, upheld their independence under their own chiefs.
