Although it is said, that the heat in Tientsin is a "dry heat," it is nevertheless true that a week of over 100 F. is, after all, hot. Owing to a thunderstorm with rain on the 2nd, there is a slight drop to 100. But as you see, it has started to go up again on the|- rd, and it is "doing nicely," with every prospect of another run up. A pity these things are not capable of being swepped, as the boy stamp collectors say; we could spare you a little heat in exchange for some of your rain.
