Particular Careeeded Wwhen
• Patient is Convalescent, Says
Expert.
The influenza convalescent who has
apparently recovered from the disease
and is yet in a strangely weak and de-
pressed condition should be the object
of particular. care, according to Dr.
Louis I. Harris, director of the Bureau
of Preventable Diseases of the New
York Health Department. In the.
opinnion of.Dr. Harris the after care
of the influenza patient is most im-
portant. The co-operation of the pat-
ient, coupled with the willingness to
see that the weakness and depression
are a part of the illness, though coin-
ing after the disease itself has spent
its force, is a big factor in effecting a
complete return to full . health. On
the other hand, the determination to
ignore this debilated condition and 'to
fight against it, will, Dr. Harris says,
frequently bring serious consequences
upon the patient.
HINESE women seemed to
have had very good taste for
fancy work even ;in very early
times. Before , they knew
what laces were they began tomake
them, though not so fine and beauti- .
ful as those of to -day. The kind that
they made was the embroidery lace.
Narrow strips of satins or silk front

inches wide, were first woven, then

insects were embroidered with var.

About twenty-five years ago in the
city. of Chefoo in Shantung a girls'
school was established > y a foreign
inissionary. It was in this ; little"
school that the art of hand -made lace
"► was srst taught to the Chinese by
foreigners, which has- now become an -
important Industry in Chins... The
lace thus made is the so-called' "Che.
too" lace. - It is found that the gteair
est amount now is not inade in Che -
foo,` but in a district called Chi Haig,
Hsien, thirty-five miles from Chefoo.
Here -the torchon silk•laces were first
made, but it did not prove a success
for its consumption was rather small
in that city.
A British missionary In 1895 eetaab.
Milled the first institution- for lase•
making. From this time on the lace
industry became important. In,
addition to the silk lace. which was
made of entirely Chinese . silk, the
thread lace was also introduced in
1904. The thread, both cotton and ;
linen, • and the patterns come exclu-
sively from England and France.
Besides the above mentioned ones
there are the cluny, the filet, the
crochet, the point venice, and the
Swatow laces. The finest of the laces
come from Ching Chou in the Tsinan
district in Shantung: Chi Hata is still
a great centre, yielding fully fifty per
cent: of the laces of the places. Shang-
hai and Swatow are - now gradually
coming into competition.
The cluny and torchon laces are ,
made by 'fastening the designs ori a
cushion: especially made for the pur-
pose, and using the same method as
the making bf bobbin lace by hand.
These two kinds have found a great
market in Australia •and America.
The filet lace is made by using a net
which is spread over a- lame. The
pattern is embroidered wh a neede.
The thread used carnes mostly from
England, yarn forty is most used for
the purpose. Filet lace has been in-
troduced only about seven` years ago,
but it is welcomed greatly. The net
for the rough kind of the lace is
largely made in Kiangpeh, a district
east of the Whangpoo river, though
some of the schools are still making
it, yet their quantity is comparatively
small. Crochet appeared two years/
earlier than the filet. It is made with
a hook. The best thread for this
kind of lace is the Fil d'Irdande•
lande, a French thread, which is•gen-
*rally called by the local manufac-
turer, "Shiny thread," owing to its
bright silvery lustre. Point venice is
another kind made — by using a
needle in much the same way as the
firet lace, only that Fil d'Irlande
Brillande should be used instead of
the ordinary thread. The so-called
Swatow lace is manufactured In
Swatow.
As yet no factories can be found
for lace -making anywhere in China
though the lace industry is rapidly
progressing. It has- been found that

A reporter on one of Toronto's city
•dailies was detailed by his city editor
to "cover" the annual meeting of the
Holstein-Frieslan• Association in that
city last week. The reporter heard
of individual animalsbeing sold for
many thousands of dollars, of yearly
receipts of almost $38,000, of their
ownership of war bonds and mun-
icipal bonds and went back to tell
his readers of an association that
"oozes prosperity every corner." The
city lad was not 'far astray either.
The Holstein -Friesian Association is
in an excellent condition financially..
Last year receipts totalled $37,833.83,
made up as follows: Registration
and transfer fees, +$25,334.70;• mem-
bership fees, $2,495; annual dues,
$2,603; books sold, $496.50; other pay-
ments; $1,064; interest on bank ac-
counts, $237.26; dividends on bonds,
$604.76; war bonds, $267.50. •
Disbursements for the year were
a little over :$30,000, with a balance
on hand of $7,260. The principal
items of expenditure were: Printing,

LONGEVITY OF SHIPS
An interesting 'ease of the longevity
of ships has recently been illustrated
by the sale of the ketch Good Intent
at Cardiff. She was built at Ply-
mouth in 1790 and was 25 tons bur-
den. She has been sold in her 130th
year for £200. In 1902 the Shipping
Register showed that there were then
afloat 24 ships that were 200 years
or more in age. One of them was the
Italian barque Anita. Built in 1548,
she was modelled on the Santa Maria
of Columbus. She was of immensely
strong build, and had weathered hur-
ricanes in all parts of the. world. In
