Traveling by Wheelbarrow.
“I must hasten on to Ping-Ylng. This trip ot 45 miles was to be undertaken, to our huge delight, in wheel-
barrows, but In two days, with a Chinese Inn for the night. Bishop Scott and I were on one barrow, Lanchester follbwed on the second, the luggage In a third. We did It luxuriously, with three men to each barrow —one In front, one behind on the handles, •and a third with a rope in front of all. “Are there springs to the barrow? ‘Certainly not; It would be no fun if jthere were. Bumps? Of course. On Ithe first day we calculated we had 25,1000 of them* the best were caused by drops of six inches or more from one ■tone to another. I got quite used to them, and found I could sleep I stretched luxuriously on my matitress.”—Bishop Montgomery In Mission Field.
