Opium Smokers Punished in China.
North Carolina Herald. |

The Viceroy of Marking publishes
memorial recommending for degradation
a batch of five officials whom he accuses
of habitually smoking opium. He goes,
in this, beyond the proposal of Kwoh,
who was willing to allow three years for
reform; but the proceeding is ali the
more indicative of earnestness, and
tallies in this respect with the measures
taken on his first assumption of office, to
suppress smoking by making resort to
graceful. This idea of checking the
practice with the higher orders by max
ing it discreditable, and so afording
better example to the people, seems to be
the leading idea with both statesmen,
though shem-Pao-chen is going into
rather more active measures of re-
preston than Kwoh seemed to contem-
plate. And there is no doubt that
sidered disreputable, although the prac-
tacit understanding to overlook it.
which induced the Viceroy to advocate
disgrace of an aficial for indulging in
ouC ul uS noo uot, VIC UOllGN6, Uttll uL-
usual, even before; Shen only hands up
a more than usual large batch of vic
Tins, and in the case of Liu Hien, Ta-
otai of Hwai-ngan and YangehoY, he
| strikes an official holding a more impor-
tant, though perhaps less lucrative, post
than the Taotai of Shanghai. There is,
however, a curious appendix to the in
cident, which involves difficulty the
a Anti-Opium Association may find inter.
est in solving. It appears from a later
number of the Gazette that almost sim.
ultaneously with his impeachment by
the Governor General of Marking, Liu
has been extolled for his ability and &C
tivity i'll the public service by the Di
rectorGeneral of Grain Tral sport, with
whom his post at Hwai-ngan, at the
junction of the canal and Yellow River
brings him into constant official contact
and who has solicited promotion on hi
behalf. There arises, then, this dilem
ma: Either Liu Hien has been grossly
maligned by the Viceroy, or opium
smoking can not possibly be so detri
mental to the mental and bodily facul
ties as its professed enemies declare.

Coughs and Bad Air.

A writer in the Popular Science
Monthly tells of two patients whose
cases may warn and encourage those
troubled with coughs. "The reader"
he says, "will allow me to recite the
case Of a patient of mine. A year ago,
during his honeymoon, / congratulated
him, and told him that dry cough with
which he was troubled was durable, pro-
vided he took care to live in the open
air as much as possible, inuring himself
to cold, sleeping in well-ventilated
chambers, free from dust, etc.
"But this advice was hardly relished
by the young man. In October they
hired rooms in a house that had just
been built; it's dampness they remedied
by keeping up fires steadily. The win
dows were hardly ever opened, as the
house stood on a windy corner, and the
husband was growing more and more
sensitive to cold; for this reason, too, he
seldom went out of doors. In Novem-
ber he took to the bed; was again about
but he gradually declined, to the last
hoping to recover.
Different was the course followed by
Mr.. H, who emaciated and troubled
with cough, had a hemorrhage after
SCNCIC COlO LIZ Welt
! into the country, took as much exercise
as he could in the open air, and returned
home with only aslight cough.
&C. At home he every morning took a
warm bath, with affusions of cold water
avoiding rooms with bad air, etc. In
six months he was free from his cough
appeared to be well nourished, and nc
longer had any fear of taking cold.
g If the reader will dispassionately
compare these two cases, he will agree
with me that the first patient, who had
never had hemorrhage, fell victim tc
the action of foul air; while III. used to
say, must give to my diseased lungs
above all things fresh air, as the prime
necessary of life
"Animals never take cold, even il
winter, therefore among men it must bt
result of wrong habits if air does any
harm. We know that gold-fishes quickly
perish when fresh water is not provided
for them; and, when we were boys, W.
we used to consider it cruelty to animal
if we made no openings for ventilation
in the boxes in which we kept cock
chafers.o

GO TO WORK YOUNG MAN

The present age seem. to be prolific in
the production OF numbers of young men
who have, some how or other, educated
themselves up 10 the belief that they were
created to make their living by doing
nothing. Every city. town and village in
the land is filled to overtiowing with young
men who are lde-hunting clerkships, or
some other place where they hope TO OBJ
tain living without work
Numbers are hanging around. living
from hand to mouth, sponging upon some
friend waiting for vacancy to occur, offer
ing to work for salary that would cause
"A shrewd business man TO suspect their
honesty; and, when demonstrated with
by friends they invariably answer: II
don't know what TO do"
We would say to those who want to
know what to do, go to work, There is
work enough u do by which you can earn
an honest living and gain the respect OF
all those whose respect is worth seeking.
Quit loafing about, waiting and looking
tor clerkship in some store with wheel
barrow-load OF goods. Get out into the
country and go to work.

INTEGRITY IN BUSINESS. of the
most promising signs of tae times is the
manifest determination in commercial cir
Giles to uphold the standard of mercantile
honor. In these days of depression and
shrinkage it does not follow at all that be-
cause a man fails he is obnoxious to re-
proach or censure. II he has done all he
could to avert the catastrophe, if he has
been oser-borne by an adverse current
so swift that he found himself powerless
TO resist it, he will be certain To receive
the sympathy of his compeers, and to be
treat ID lenenlly by his creditors. But If
he shows any disposition to practice con-
cealment or deception, to withhold full
| statement of his assets and liabilities, or
to drive sharp bargain with the people
who have trusted him. he deprives himse If
OF all claim to forbearance, and should be
pursued with a rigor that will serve to
deter other men from following his pern.
clous example.
