Pressed whion, upon a particular occasion, the "little gentleman" was brought from the sick glam- bar and prosented to the assein- bled guests in richly-embroidered garments. The genial parent seemned to take plousure in intiimat- ing that the patient's temperature was almost normal, "und, ex- pressed the hope that in a few days. ho might become convalescent, Our host was then mado the re- cipiont of profuse compliments and congratulations, and offerings were placed upon the domostio altar to invoke the care of "the
mortal gods, guardians of man kind." After the banquet tie guests departo: to their soverül homos, whore, in all probability; wore residing in amity three or four generationsof Colestials" great-grandparents and children of very tender age. Being familiar with salient features of Chinono civilisation, you readily understand the signifi- cance of this narrative. And perhaps you will hardly affirm it unnatural for a bacteriologist to expect an epidemic of smill-pox as the inevitable result of social customs ovidently fraught with much danger to the community. Yot, in as far as tiidse guests
and
their families are con cerned, they appeared to linve. entire immunity from the disease. Tho first death in the families represented at the feast upon that interesting occasion happened after an inforval of almost two years, when a refined young lady who lived in comparative soclusion fell a victim to "plague." There | may be no diminution of interest when wo state that it is tolerably certain there were rats and other vermin in ovory Ironsohold, anil. that none of the Chinese were vaccinated.
