PeOnage i'm Mexico.

The system of peonage still exists in
Mexico. In case Of debt the debtors
personal services, or wages earned from
another employer, belong to his creditors
until the debt is paid but it has been
modified Of late years, so that it does not
now apply to debts amounting to over
ten dollars If man trusts another for
more than that sum. he does so at his
own peril. if he has no property. He
can command his services up TO ten
dollars worth but no farther The old
life servitude is thus done away with, to
a great extent, although many of the
lower classes manage to keep perpetually
in debt, and consequently, practically,
slaves. The law, whether it be good or
bad, is executed in Mexico.

There are only about 100 Japanese
in New York city. This is explained
by the fact that the Japanese are,
perhaps, more 10th to leave their
homes, even for profit to be gained in
foreign countries, than any other
people in the world. This ardent love
of country has checked emigration
from Japan, but this year something
has occurred which will influence a
great many japanese to come to this
country. Hitherto the Japanese who
have come here have been nearly all
of the student class. Last January
the mikado promulgated law, similar
to the German military code, by which
every young man in Japan, on coming
of age, is obliged to serve three years
in the army. This law makes no
distinction as to social standing, and
puts stop to the purchase of substi
tutes. The lower classes will be
benefited by this law, but the young
men of standing and education regard
those three years as the best part of
their lives wasted. Hence, it is antic-
ipated that before long stream of
the best young blood in Japan will be
pouring steadily in this direction. In
the event of Chinese war, which
probably caused the enactment of this
law, these young men would be the
first to volunteer, but they rebel
against three years of useless service
in time of peace.

Loss of Flesh and strength,

with poor appetite, and perhaps slight cough
in morning, or on first lying down at night,
should be looked to in time. Persons afflicted
with consumption are proverbially unconscious
of their real state. Most cases commence
with disordered liver, leading to bad diges-
ton and imperfect assimilation of food
hence the emaciation, or wasting of the
flesh. 1t is form of scrofulous disease, and
