having their feet bound are injured in their constitutions and contract more diseases. Since they themselves are not able to do any thing, the lack of vital strength in the mo hers' produces weakly children and thus harm is done to the State. (4.) It causes poverty. The great principle in the production of wealth is that the producer outnumber the consumers, Women with bound fest are by their weakness incapacitated for work and have to depend on others. One half of the people of the nation being consumers, how can they prevent povertyW.Y. although they do not wish for it. The above are the most. serinus evils, but besides these there are others beyond number. In late years, of course, learned and wise persons have re cognized the injuriousness of the practice, but It is deep rooted and its eradication is not an easy maiter. Moreover, one complication is the marriage difficulty and because of this the fashion is observed and reform is feared.
Now, happily, the Imperial Edict, to put an end to this bad custom has been received and the subjects of our country one" and all should assist to carry out Their Majesties poble idea for a uniform change. The high
families should first 'moke the reform as an exa ple to athers, establish public societies, and use their influence with the common and ignorant people. The lower classes will then unite to protect the weaker sex so that poor families may have strong healthy women for the household work. Thus very great improve- ment will result in the mode of living, and the customs of the people.
Now, fearing that this mere admonition may have no result and arouse no enthusiasm, We Officers of State assure you gentry and people.
