First Sentence: Skating is a business with the Chinaman, rather than a sport, for he contrives to turn the frozen canals into convenient highways for his merchandise, as they do in Holland and Denmark.
Last Sentence: On the other hand, the very cheapness and simplicity of the common, native-made article tends to make skating general among the male element.
