A Scientific Triumph.

1t is only few months since the first cake
Standard Soap Co., of San Francisco. AS
the ingredients and combination were the
result of the best chemical science in the
world there was every reason to expect some
thing far superior to any toilet soap ever
made before, yet it was hardly expected that
the medical profession would indorse Phos-
phdte Soap for its remedial qualities as
strongly as they have. 1t is we'll known that
physicians OF high standing are conservative
and slow to indorse any thing new until they
are thoroughly convinced Of its merits. But
when an article is worthy of confidence they
are willing to indorse it. The public no
longer wait in doubt, because they know
that the physician who has lived in their
midst for years and earned a high reputa-
ton in his profession will not indor' c an
article unless he is ell satisfied of its merits.
Such men as DR.. w. A. Douglass, of San
Francisco, and Dr.A. j. Spencer, Of San Jose,
Cal, have grown venerable in the medical
profession and are respected by all who know
them. These well-known physicians with
many others, have tried Phosphate Soap both
as a toilet article and as a remedy for skin
diseases, and pronounce it superior to any
other article of the kind.
The soothing, cleansing, purifying and dis
injecting qualities of Ph 'sphate Soap render
it prime necessity IN every family. Besides,
it is most convenient article. II is good
for shaving as well as the toilet and is also
useful in removing grease and impurities
from clothing and delicate fabrics.

ANCIENT LAws.-1n early days, Ro-
mish women we're not allowed to drink
wine. When any of them infringed
this rule their husband or nearest rela-
tives we're authorized to chastise them
and in the time of Romulus, there was
even law that subjected them to
capital punishment if found in a state
of intoxication. While the women
were thus wholly excluded ifom the
pleasures of wine, the men themselves
INDUCED in them but moderately; but
when, in lather times, drinking to ex-
cess became the vice and the boast of
the male sex, they could not in consis-
tency refuse the partners OF their joys
some little share of participation in
the dear excess. The laws on the sub
ject fell into disuse; and at length we
find the ladies of Rome boldly riva]ing
their husbands in their bacchanalian
orgies. Seneca represents them as
passing whole nights at table, and,
with charged goblets in their hands,
not only vieing with, but surprising
the most robust debauctees. The work
of degeneration progresses rapidly
among all people and in all ages.

In PR1soK.-The " silent system" of
prison discipline is severely criticised.
In England it's effect has been unfavor-
able. The chaplain of military prison,
being much surprised at the general
and very earnest responses of the con-
victs during the service, was told by
the officers that very few knew or cared
what the responses were, but were in
dulging in them mainly as a recreation.
The silent system had proved SO inju-
rious to general health. that it was
strictly enforced on only short-termed
prisoners. The others were, through
necessity, allowed some deviations.
For sanitary reasons, all were encour-
aged to respond in the chapel, and they
availed themselves of the chance to use
their voices as if great luxury. and
all sang vociferously for the same rea-
son. We do not recollect to have be-
fore seen claim that talking is essen
tial to the preservation of health. 1t
is certainly curious and suggestive
fact.
