The Annamese Court Of Appeals.

The law courts of AMMAN seem to be
asnumerous and complicated as those of
the most civilized community; but, if a
plaintiff fails to obtain redress in any
of them, having tried them all in due
order, there remains for him the fol-
lowing simple expedient: He proceeds
to the court Of appeal, or Tain Phap-
building lying close to the outer
walls-where he finds hanging to a
door a gong with its stick attached.
On this he strikes three heavy blows
and then a number of softer ones,
whereupon an attendant appears, and
says, with a magisterial tone Of voice,
"What do you ask for?" Justice"
replies the plaintiff, handing in his
petition. You shall have it, is the
response, and we are assured that the
Tain Phap is generally as good as the
word Of its TepresentatiYe,-LondQH
Tina.

HEALTH HINTS,

DR.. j. II. Mussen has produced good
results in number of cases of varicose
veins from the use of fluid extract of
hamamelis in teaspoonful doses. The
cases are recorded in the Medical
Times.
The Medical Record says that Pro-
fessor Bisoz has found in seventeen
cases of snake bites that filtered solu-
tion of chloride Of lime, injected into
the place where the virus entered,
prevented any poisonous symptoms
appearing.
A physician says that it must not
be assumed that, because there is more
fresh and unbreathed air on the noun
tains or az the seaside, there need be
no precautions. There are special ex-
posures in these changes. The damp
ness of morning and night is often ap-
parent, and flannel underclothing Is
needed. The crowding into smaller
rooms gives less air space and tempts
to open windows, which, however
good, must not be so situated as,
through small openings, to pour a
stream of air on the body when covered
with perspiration. The beds in hotels
are not infrequently damp, and many
colds have their origin from them.
In some parts of England, among
the poorer classes, large glass of cold
spring water, taken on going to bed, is
found to be a successful remedy for
colds; intact, many medical practition-
ers recommend reduced atmosphere
and frequent draughts of cold fluid as
the most efficacious remedy for a re-
cent cold, particularly when the pa.
TENTS habit is full and plethoric. 1t
is well known that confining inocu.
lated persons in warm rooms will
make their smallpox more violent by
augmenting the general heat and fever
and it is for the same reason that a
similar practice in colds is attended
with analogous results-a col being
in reality slight fever,

THE GOOD OLD WAY.

John Man had wife who was kind and true
/ A wife who loved him we'll;
She cared for his home and their only child;
! But, if l the truth must tell,
She fretted and pined because John was poor,
And his business was slow 10 pay;
But he only said, when she talked of change,
"Well stick to the good old way"
She saw her neighbors we're growing rich,
And dwelling in houses grand;
That she ewas living in poverty,
With wealth on every hand
And she urged her husband to speculate,
To risk his earnings at play;
But he only said, My dearest wife,
Wen sick to the good old way"
For he knew that the money that's quickly
got
Is the money that's quickly lost;
And the money that stays is the money
earned
Athonest endsavor's cost;
So he plodded along in his honest style,
And he bettered himself each day;
And he only said to his fretful wife,
"We'll stick to the good old way"
And at last there came terrible crash,
When beggary, want and shame
Came down on the names of their wealthy
friends,
While Johns remained the same;
For he had no debts and gave no trust,
My mottois this" he'd say
"Itsa charm against panics of every kind
'Tis Stick to the good old way"
And his wife looked round on the little
house
That was every nail their own,
And she asked forgiveness of honest John
For the peevish mistrust she had shown;
But he only said, a. her fearful face
Upon his shoulder lay,
"The good old way is the best way, wife
Wen stick TO the good old way"

LIES TRUE SIGNIFICANCE.

Deeper than all sense of seeing
Lies the secret source of being,
And the soul with truth agreeing
Learns to live in thoughts and deeds
For the life is more than raiment,
And the earth is pledged for payment
Unto man for all his needs.
Nature is our common mother,
Every living man our brother,
Therefore let us serve each other;
Not to meet the laws behests,
But because through cheerful giving
We shall learn the art of living;
And to live and serve Is best.
Life is more than what man fancies;
Not game of idle chances;
But it steadily advances
Up the rugged heights Of time,
Till each complex web of trouble,
Every sad hopes broken bubble
Hath a meaning most sublime.
More of religion, less profession;
More of frmness, less concession;
More of freedom, less oppression,
In the church and in the state;
More of life and less of fashion;
Mose of love and less of passion;
That will make us good and great
When true hearts, divinely gifted,
From the chaff of error sifted,
On their crosses are uplifted,
Shall the world most clearly see
That earth's greatest time of trial
Calls for holy self denial,
Calls on men to do and be.
But forever and forever
Let it be the souls endeavor
Love from hatred to dissever.
And in whate'er we do,
Won by loves eternal beauty,
To our highest sense of duty
Evermore be firm and true.
