Chinkiang, China, Sept.—You must not think that because your China correspondent hasn’t written for some time that this old land has fold ed her tent and stolen away Into the gloomy night of the sunset. China is much too bulky an object to evade notice in that kind of a fashion, and 1 am pretty sure she has no such in tention at the present time, quite the contrary, In fact. It was our privilege to have a little while up on the mountain of Ruling for a part of this summer, and, while there, one was in a position to see something of mission work going on all over the land. The census of the visitors was taken while we were there, and there were something over one thousand foreigners at that time, and most of these were^ mis sionaries. There were a little more than four hundred British, and just under four hundred American resl- dent there at the time. I might ex plain that this mountain is about One step won’t take you very far ; f 0ljr thousand feet above the aea You’ve got to keep on walking; level, and a few years ago was a One word won't tell folks who you bare place wIth not a house . Now pie. There was very near to being a riot a few weeks ago when some of ficial, at the request of a foreigner, wanted to stop the sale of melons, a very fruitful source of cholara. For the farmers were aot going to lose their trade. The wonder remains how It is that most of people are not carried off right away with some foul disease, for the streets are cess pools of filth, and a visit to the native street in hot weather is a trial, a physical trial of scenes and sights and sounds and smells. Yesterday a woman came in and said that one of our members was very bad with something like cholera. Later I went with the doctor down to see, her and she had been very bad, but it was not quite cholera. She was carried back to her home to day, and I have not heard whether she has survived or not. One never knows these day who may struck down. Several foreigners have died in Hankow up the river, but fortu nately there has been no case of for eigner in Chinkiang. We Americans have our troubles, but one who Is not on the spot cannot realize how little of life’s good things these Chinese have, and how many of the sorrows.

The Ledger calls It “The Poor Man’s Bank.” “We never see a building and loan advertise ment,” it says, “but what we think of what a blessing the originator of the plan has been to mankind. He has enabled thousands to live in their own homes that never could have oc cupied anything but a rented house but for the idea. He has caused mil lions to become savers that otherwise would never have saved a dollar. We don’t know who he was, but he was a benefactor and we honor his mem ory.” By the way, who was it origi nated the building and loan plan?

There must be a whole army of people planning and working to sup ply the needs of small strangers from Babyland. Nothing more fascinating can be imagined than the display of such wares made at the various high grade shops and at the exchanges. Dainty Simplicity. Daintiness, combined with practi cal simplicity, is the most notable features of all these baby outfits. Where lavish expenditure is indul ged it goes for fine materials, and exquisite needle-work and embroid ery, rather than for fussy elaborat ion which Is reckoned altogether bad taste in a layette. The Long Clothes. Sensible people confine their se lection of the baby’s existence to a plentiful supply of little slips of nice material untriramed except for lace at neck and sleeves and to the neces sary long flannel skirts for day and night wear which may be of the finest, softest flannel daintily em broidered or simply finished with featherstitched hems. They wait un til short clothes are donned to pro vide regulation dresses ami more elaborate apparel. Acceptable Presents. Little wrappers and nightingale sacks of cashmere prettily embroid ered are favorite presents always acceptable, and one is sure to re ceive a few hand-made dresses suit able for any important occasion; like the christening or Christmas holiday gathering, when the baby is to be very much in evidence. All sorts of warm knitted blankets, and afgans, and wraps of embroidered flannel, or tufted silk, are ust-ful and attractive gifts, that add to the com fort and pleasure of the recipients. The Best Styles in Skirts and Shirts. Little woven shirts of fine ribbed material that button down the front like coats are the best style garment in this class. These are all wool, silk, or mixtures and have a tab at the lower front edge to hold the shield pin and keep the baby’s gar ments together so that they will be smoothe and not slip, thus adding materially to his comfort. Short Clothes for Girls and Boys. At six months most babies are put Into short clothes and the wise mother has the first flannels, etc., of a length that will cut into two gar ments of the same sort. From the time when short clothes are donned fashion decrees that the boy’s outfit shall be marked by a cer tain simplicity of style and tailor like finishes and trimmings to pro claim his place and dlfferenttiata his appearel from the girlish daintiness proper to his sisters. A Practical Suggestion. At six months mothers are apt to have an anxious and babies a moat uncomfortable time, .for this la the period when the weaning is usually accomplished. An easy way to get over this, 1 s to begin giving the baby one or two daily feedings of a high grade, pre pared baby food like Nestle's in con nection with bis natural sustenance. Most children need additional feed ing after the first three months, some even earlier, and If this plan la fol lowed, the child Is so accustomed to the scientifically prepared food, that the weaning can be made without any fretting or physical disturbance. The New “Cosy." One of the senstible pretty novel ties shown this season is a warm sleeping bag of eiderdown flannel double-faced, blue and white, or pink and white, bound with ribbon matching the color and tied with soft bows of the same. These are termed "Cosies” and when the child is safely tucked and tied Into the warm nest that they form, he Is per fectly protected from any draught or sudden change of temperature, and can get all the fresh air that he needs without far of chill.
