Ma Nicholas Pike, in the "SubTropical Rambleß", says: — "Sometimes after losing his ready cash, a Chinaman will stake his whole stock and trade — and lose. I remember an instance of thia reckless gambling mania. A shop close to my house was owned dy a very respectable Chinaman, a quiet fellow, who bad his place well stocked with groceries, wines &c, and owned one assistant, a boy of about twenty, as quiet and Bteady as his master. For a few days his shop was shut, much to the inconvenience of his neighbors, and, on inquiry, I found it was the annual festival, and both master and man had attended it. Lung Fo re-opened, but to every-ono's astonishment, be was busy sweeping out his shop, and weighing out charcoal and lard to the customer, while the younger sat leisurely smoking and taking up tbe day-books. It appeared they had been gambling from tbe time tbey left home. Lung Fo had lost to his servant all his money, his whole stock and house; and then having nothing more, he wagered himself, and if he lost he was to be servant to the other — and he did lose. But there was no appearance of triumph on the boy's face; master and man reversed their places with the utmost sang froid."
