81 Never Take Medicine.v

During the short administration of
President Taylor, young man visited
Washington to sell cholera medicine.
Thinking it would aid him in his bust
ness, he called at the White House while
public reception was being held, to
present the President with q bottle of
the medicine.
He had rehearsed little speech with
which to preface the presentation. But
when he found himself face to face for
the first time with live President his
nerves were too much disturbed for him
to speak it. He, therefore, mumbled q
few words, more amusing than elegant,
about the medicine being SO dead shot,
and pulled out the bottle, only to. hear
the President soy, in tone loud enough
to be heard through the room:
IT thank you; but I never take med
icine, cholera or no cholera"
The young man almost tainted from
modification. But in less than ten days
Gen. Taylor died of cholera, caused by
his own indiscretion in eating.
On q very warm Fourth Of July the
cornerstone of the Washington monu-
ment was laid: President Taylor partic-
ipated in the ceremony, and drank freely
Of ice-water.
On his return to the White House he
complained of feeling hungry, and ate
freely of cherries, washing them down
with iced milk.
At dinner, against the remonstrance of
q physician, who was present, he again
partook heartily Of cherries. In ON hours
time he was attacked by cholera-morbus
and died within four days.

are such fine people they must have

"Indeed," said the other. well,

Feet Distortion IN China.

The binding Of ohild's feet is not be-
gun until abe has learned to walk and
do certain things for herself, as it would
be difficult, If not impossible, to teach
her afterward. The rich bind their
ohildren's feet from the 9th or It'll year,
but the poor do not begin until they are
II, or even older. Parents who have
been forced by poverty to sell q daugh-
ter as slave when she was q, child, will
bring her back afterward if they can,
and then, no matter how old she is, they
bind up herfeet and marry her as lady.
But the pain Of binding q full-grown
foot Is said to be most intense. Strong
white bandages two inches wide are
manufactured for the purpose. Those
worn the first year are two yards long,
andaboutfive feet is thelength worn after
ward. The following, according to Miss
Fielde, is the method adopted: The end
Of the strip is laid on the inside of the
the top of the toes and under the foot,
drawing the four toes with it down upon
the sole; thence it is passed over the
foot and around the heel and by this
stretch the toes and the heel are drawn
together, leaving bulge on the in
step and deep indentation in the
sole, under the instep. This course
is gone over in successive layers of
bandage until the strip of cloth is all
used, and the final end is sewn tight
down." To please Chinawoman, the
"indentation must measure an inch
and half from the part of the foot
which rests on the ground up to the in
step. The toes are then completely
drawn over the sole, and the foot is SO
squeezed upward that in walking only
the ball Of the great toe touches the
ground. Large quantities of powdered
alum are used when the feet are first
bound, and always afterward, to prevent
liberation and lessen the offensive odor.
The bandage is taken off only once n
month. At the end of the first month
the foot is put in hot water, and, after it
has been allowed to soak some time, the
bandage is carefully unwound, "the
dead cuticle, Of which there is so much,
being abraded during the process of un-
binding. When the foot is entirely un-
bound, it is not unusual to find ulcers
and other denominations. Frequently,
too" we are told, "a large piece of flesh
sloughs off the sole, and It sometimes
happens that one or two toes drop of"
When this happens, the patient consid-
ers himself amply repaid for the addi-
tional suffering by having smaller and
more delicate feet than her neighbors
Indeed, the desire to have small feet is so
intense that girls will slyly tighten their
own bandages in spite of the pain
