Life Saving and Law.
The Itoumanliins are iih curious In
some things us the Chinese. A girl
who fell into the river and was swept
down by the current finally seized a
bush on the bank and drew herself
to shore. 'J' he owner of (he laud on
which the bush grew lininedlaiely
claimed a reward of -I shillings because
his bush was there and had saved her.
Her father refused to pay, and there
was a lawsuit. What the law has (o
decide Is whether drowning people can
make use nf hushes on the bank with
out paying for the sinne or whether the
assistance of the said bush Is worth a
certain sum of money.
In China If a person falls Into the
water no one must help liliu out, but
at the same time a spectator cnu be lin
prisoned for not advising the victim to
