CHINESE CHRISTIANS I have received from a friend in Hankow some interesting notes bearing on the question, frequently asked, what the alleged Christianity of leading Chinese personalities amounts to. Ot the genuine sincerity of both General Chiang Kai-shek and his wife there is, I am told, no doubt. Not long ago the British Consul-General was asked for a different version of the Old Testament for General Chiancr “ as he was finding Jeremiah difficult in the particular Chinese version he was at that time daily reading.” (Not all of us find him simple in plain English.) Madame Chiang Kai-shek was using Moffatt’s translation. “ Several years ago,” adds my correspondent, “ General Feng Yu-hsiang (‘ the Christian General ’) preached in a school chapel here, ana we have never lost faith in his deep Christianity since then . . . General Chang Chih-chiang later preached in the same chapel, and he knew his Bible through and through.” The Chinese character is curious and complex—as the recent negotiations between Generals Chiang Kai-shek and Chang Hsueh-liang showed—and Christianity may not in all respects find the same expression in China as in the West, hut these notes by an Englishman with long experience* of Chinese life and thought are of undeniable interest—and they are obviously important as well as interesting.— “ Janus,” in the ‘ Spectator.’

RHEUMATISM “ Rheumatism! The word suggests a rather hopeless complaint, which nobody' seems to understand,” writes Dr R. Fortescue Fox, M.D., F.R.C.P., president, of .the International League Against Rheumatism, in ‘ Labour.’ “ Britain is the most rheumatic country in the world, and not less than 500,000 of the population are probably affected.' The severest form, rheumatoid disease, is also most common in this country, and has indeed been called ■‘British Arthritis.’ _ It is also called Housewives’ Arthritis,’ for it is three times as common in women as in men. The number of women affected is estimated at not less than 50,000. The Minister of Health has recently stated (‘British Medical Journal,’ November 21, 1936) that rheumatism amongst insured men is now responsible for 16 per cent, of the total sickness and disablement. The disbursements for rheumatism in 1927 were more than £5,000,000. Is it not time that a fraction of this sum be expended on prevention and cure? Twelve million pounds must be added for wages lost, and these incredible, figures include nothing for medical care, nursing, and institutional ment,”Diner; “What is special to-day, waiter?” ' Waiter (under notice); “ What we couldn’t get rid of yesterday, sir.”
