" Rob crossed the canal bridge, went out through the big gate, that promptly was opened at his ap- proach, and turned down Heavenly Clouds Street with the assured air of one who had resided in Can- ton all his life. Then he received a shock, and at the same time proved himself to be one of the very newest of new arrivals in that crafty city of poverty- A TURN OF FORTUNE S TIDE 1 19 sharpened wits. On a bit of straw matting, spread above the granite flagging of the narrow roadway, lay a child th...ree or four years old, apparently in the very grasp of death. Its eyes were closed, its pale features were distorted as though by a spasm; it was gasping for breath, and its hands were tightly clinched, while its poor little body was only par- tially hidden beneath a bit of ragged, blue cloth. Beside the dying child knelt a mother, bending over it and rocking her body to and fro in an agony of grief, while tears streamed from her eyes. She, too, was clad in rags, and evidently was in the last ex- tremity of poverty, since she had not even a kennel in which to conceal her dying child from the curious gaze of the swarming street.
