HONGKONG, FEBRUARY 181, 1896..

The fearful infantifs mortality prevailing in Hongkong has attracted the attention of the new Medical Officer of Health, who Proposes as a remedy the registration of native doctors and midwives in order to preclude the practice of these professions by incompetent persone. The proposal, how- over, in attended with great practical fficulties: To begin with, every p sau

To estah gests would be to give legal recognition to charlatanism pure and simple. It is one thing to abstain from interference with native medical practitioners, ng has hitherto to legally recognise there and give them certificate of the Government's approval The regulation of midwives, however, would be a simpler matter than the regulation of the practice of medicine generally, and that branch of the subject, might perhaps dealt with at oste The very high mortality amongst newly born infants calls for the most serious attention and Dr. Chan is to be congratulated on having brought the matter, forward. It has best discussed before, but this is the first time, we believe, that any defuite suggestion bas been made with a view to bunging about an improvement.
