FIRST "FOREIGNER" TO VISIT
SHANTUNG WAS AMERICAN
Andreas Everard Van Braanx, Burn in Holland, But a Nat
uralized Citizen of the United Slates, Made Trip as Dutch
Anxbassador Through Chinese Province 125 Years Ago.
While interest is keen in the gift
to Japan by the League of Nations
covenant of Shantung—that im
mense spit of land that thrusts it
self out into the Yellow Sea—it is
the psychological moment for the
discovery on a forgotten shelf in a
Philadelphia library o§ the account
of the trip of the first Caucasian to
visit the province. He was the first
"foreigner" to be given an audience
by a Chinese emperor. What is
more, he was an American.
For though this traveler, Andreas
Everard Van Braam. went as head
of the Dutch East India Company
and an ambassador from Holland,
he was at the time a naturalized
citizen of the United States and had
been living here for some years. His
book, compiled at the suggestion of
George Washington and dedicated to
him, is in the form of a diary and
was published for Americans to
show them the "golden opportunity"
which China offered. The slyness
and double dealing of certain Can
ton mandarins and merchants are
denounced as being the one great
barrier in the way of international
commerce, but it was his belief that
England and America must bring
China to the fore as a great com
mercial nation.
It is possible, of course, that other
copies of this quaint old diary of a
century and a quarter ago are in
existence, but inquiries among his
descendants fail to reveal another,
which makes the book (published
by Phillips of London and put on
Fale by Debrett) of as much interest
to the bibliophile as to the student
of the Shantung clauses in the peace
treaty.
Made Trip in 1794-95
It was in 1794-95 that Van Braam
made his trip, but much that he
says of the Celestial Kingdom is
equally true to-day, for the country
has long been static, and the traveler
saw it in a fashion which few Amer
icans, even missionaries, have been
able to achieve.
Andreas Everard Van Braam
Houckgeest (the last word is a title,
1 am told) was born in the Province
of Utrecht, Holland, in 1739, not far
from that town where William
Hohenzollern hopes to spend his re
maining days. He first served his
country in the Dutch Navy, his be
ing a naval family, and two of his
brothers being admirals, but An
dreas, preferring commerce, went
out to China in 1758 as supercargo
for the Dutch East India Company,
and lived in Macao and Canton un
til 1773, when he returned to Hol
land and settled in Guelderland.
It was, however, primarily as an
American that Van Braam jotted
down the thoughts and accounts of
his experiences, for he returned to
this country in 1796, landing at
Philadelphia April 24, and it was
not until 1798 that his book came
out.
Van Braam built a home near
Bristol, Pa., which he called "China

PIMPLES
How to remove them
You'd give a lot to get rid of those
distressing pimples, wouldn't you?
For you know how troublesome they
are—how they spoil your beauty
how often they prove embarrassing.
Klearskin—a soothing cream, pre
pared by the physicians of the Klois
tor Laboratories, proves effective in
the treatment of pimples, blotches
and other unsightly facial eruptions.
This cream contains a medicament
of wonderful value —so wonderful
that even a two-weeks' treatment
will demonstrate Its merit. Klear
skin is harmless, greasless and of
tlosh color does not show on the
skin and will not promote hair
growth on the face.

Man-Heil Inhaler two months for
Hay Fever and tightness in the
throat, having been a sufferer for
two years. The Inhaler is the only
relief I have ever found, although ?
have tried many remedies. I have
been able to go to work every day
during the extreme Hay Fever sea
son. This X consider has paid for
the Inhaler many times, as well as
prevented much suffering. I was
oft from work in 1918 just 21 days
suffering from Hay Fever: sat up all
night, could not lie down, was so
short of breath. This year the In
haler has allowed me to go on just
like the rest of the family. I will
always be glad that I read the ad
vertisement of the Geo. A. Gorgas

THURSDAY EVENING,
Retreat," and which is still stand
ing; and here he gathered together
such of his Chinese treasures as he
wanted to preserve,. though he gave
many of the most valuable to the
French Republic.
Mandarins led tile Party
"To conduct us," writes Van
Braam, "we had three mandarine of
distinction. The first, called Van
ta-loye, wore the dark blue button
and was versed in political matters;
the second, named Ming-ta-love,
wore the blue transparent button
and was a military man; the third,
called Sam-ta-loye, was of the white
transparent button and was a great
mandarin of letters. Each of them
had under his command several in
ferior mandarins carrying gold
sticks. The military mandarin was
a Tartar and the two others were
Chinese."
Despite a great company and the
pomp of their journey, the members
of the embassy encountered many
discomforts. The intense cold, the
poor accommodations, and the care
lessness of the coolies all added to
their troubles, while upset palan
quins and jolting Chinese carts jar
red the dignity of the Dutch and
French gentlemen, and on many oc
casions, as Van Braam paintively
points out, supplies were so slow in
reaching them that they had to go
for weeks with nothing to drink but
water!
In their journey across the coun
try to Peking to pay their visit to
the Imperial Palace they traveled a
route never hefoyp seen by "white
men" crossing Shantung, and on
their return penetrated still further
into what was then an "unknown
land" to Europeans.
Van liraam Meets the Emperor
Van Braam began the trip as sec
ond in the embassy, though he
shared all honors. As it happened,
however, the head of that body be
came ill during the journey, and so
it was Van Braam who was first re
ceived in audience by the aged Em
peror Kien-Long. Van Braam also
met the seventeenth son of the Em
peror. who was to succeed him on
the throne in 1796.
Royal audiences were decidedly
early affairs in Peking. The Dutch
man, to his great disgust had to
rise at 4 in the morning and wait
in the cold for an hour or more
while the Emperor did homage to
his ancestors before the audience be
gan.
The outside of the palace, coated
as it was with plaster, painted a
pale red and elaborately gilded de
lighted the eye of the Hollander,
as did the ceremony of the skates,
whioli he witnessed, and which was,
so he learned, a yearly celebration,
the Chinese never donning the fa
miliar Dutch "ice shoes" at any
other time.
The insidte of the palace, how
ever, he found less attractive; the
winding canal that wandered
through it, to the long cold corridors
like dark streets; the smallness of
the rooms, all disgusted him, though
the Emperor's own apartment was
large with a huge window made of
a single sheet of glass through which
he could survey his kingdom.
"After the Mongul and Korean
envoys had performed the salute of
honor to the Emperor." he says, "I
was likewise presented to the aged
monarch, and in my turn went
through the ceremony of prostra
tion. He was sitting on a sopha
(sofa) with his legs crossed under
him, according to the Chinese cus
tom. On his right hand was the
Voo-tchong-tang. and ori his left the
Fok-lio-tayen, who,, upon the!r
knees and prostrate, were speaking
to the Emperor, as well as I could
judge, about me. The prime minis
ter then rose and ordered the Lingua
to tell me. on the part of his majesty
that he had attained his eighty-fifth
year, and that I was the first Dutch
man that had ever had an oppor
tunity of approaching so near to his
person. I addressed my thanks to
his majesty for this signal favor in
the most respectful manner and re
peated the salute of honor, after
which we rose.
"We were then placed a little to
the left, as were also the envoys I
have just mentioned, and were all
told to sit down upon the ground on
carpets that had been spread on
purpose, in two ranks, one behind
the other. As I was not accustomed
to that mode of sitting, it was to
me a real penance."
Shantung's Riches Not Then Known
Of Shantung Van Braam spoke
with contempt, as being merely the
birthplace of Confucius and a pro
vince of no account, since it did not
yield great harvests of rice or silk
or of the popular nankeen. In the
minds of the Dutch embassy. Shan
tung. whose stored riches of coal,
gold, silver, straw and what not had
not been discovered, was forgivable
as a roadway only because its chief
mandarin presented to them rich
furred coats of red and smaller
pelisses to all the men of their staff.
Van Braam depicts in his book his
long visits with the Emperor; the
strange ceremonies of the moon and
the sun: the dance of the sons of
mandarins; the feasts and the won
derful fireworks that at least won
enthusiasm from the Dutch. His
account of the marvelous temples;
of the Chinese custom of burning
the dead with ceremonies filched
from ancient Greece and Rome; his
story of the fields of buckwheat; the
great barges laden with rice; the
Emperor's pools of goldfish, "fifteen
inches long and of rare coloring;"
his description of the scenery and
the private rooms of the imperial
palace, where no European or
American had ever before set foot,
all make up a wonderful picture of
the China of the past.
Hot Air I'ipcs Heated Houses
A land of contrasts, always, for
while on one page he speaks of the
rough carts, "such as are used in
Holland for manure," being the
main type of conveyance and horses
few in number and badly cared for,
on the next he describes the heating
of the houses, showing that furnaces
with hot air pipes extending to the
different rooms, were installed in
the mandarins' homes. The furnaces
were not built in the houses, but in
cellars excavated just outside.
"Tubes go branching off front
these furnaces in every direction."
he says, "under the bricks of the
floors, and under a kind of platform
or estrade on which the Chinese
sleep. They even pass through the
walls which divide the different
rooms, so that the heat diffused by
these tubes produce in the apart
ments the temperature desired."
The fire was kept up night and
day by coolies, and the houses were
comfortable even when winter winds
blew. Their ingneuity (and this es
pecially in Shantung, where the
mighty river and many harbors
made all men sailors) in contriving
ropes of bamboo, masts of bamboo,
tools and houses and ornaments of
bamboo, surprised and won prulse
from the ambassador, who also de
votes some space to the men who
"fish without hook or line." having
birds trained tc. dart into the water

and seize their prey and bring it
to their master.
The pears of Shantung were an
other delight to him, some of them,
he says, measuring fourteen inches
around and being very juicy and
melting. But throughout his book
the main theme is the wonderful op
portunity which China offers to the
world. Its beauty, its mystery, its
art and its people all make thei'r ap
peal to him, but essentially to him
as the man of commerce.
The great-great-great-granddaugh
ter of Van Braam owns to-day a
painting of the ambassador's wife
and daughter by an artist of the
Chinese court. It was done on glass
and the delicate coloring was
burned in by what is now a lost art.

COLLEGE MEN LEAD
Turning to that good old guide.
"Who's Who in America" for one way
of answering the queries arising from
the college man's plea for material rec
ognition for his university, it is seen
that 72.88 per cent, of those who are
who in "Who's Who" attended college,
men with secondary school education
making up only 11.12 per cent, of the
total.
Less than X per cent, of the men in
tide country are college graduates, yet
this 1 per cent, has furnished 77 per
cent, of our Presidents, 36 per cent, of
the members of Congress, 52 per cent,
of the secretaries of state and 69 per
cent, of the justices of the United States
Supreme Court. Whichever way one
looks at it, it seems evident that a col
lege education very greatly increases a
man's chances of making a distinguished
record.
