CHINESE REMEDIES.
Some of the Dainty Drugs Prescribed b.
@ Celestial Physicians.

Some of the Dainty Drugs Prescribed by
Celestial Physicians.
The materia medica of the Chinese
profession is something stupendous.
The Pan-Tso, their standard work, is in
thirty-cightvolumes. It presents 1896
formul@, into the makeup of which
over 1000 substances enter. While
there is almost no end to Chinese drugs,
there are some substances which are
favorites in the practice. Among these
are claws and bones of the tiger and
other wild animals, the cuttle-fsh,
dragons teeth, fossils, the hide, horn
and bones of the elephant, and trhi-.
noceros, the scorpion, snake skins, SCOT,
and SO on. $50 '''' ''''' ''''' = 40
A favorite remedy is known as .sthe
tincture Of five poisons,' made by Steep.
ing scorpions, snakes and other venom-
Gus creatures in sanlshu. This is given
for fever, rheumatism and eatarrh. In
some parts of China it is considered the
very highest degree Of philanthropy for
the rich to place this tincture at their
doors, to be used without cost by the
poor. Gunpowder, termed the .'tine
drug" is used as vermifuge. Asensible
remedy, which is of comparatively re.
cent introduction among moro enlight-
ened people, is the gizzard Of the COM
mon fowl, prescribed for dyspepsia. But
the great cure-all with the Chinese is
ginseng root The resemblance which
the roots often bear to the human form,
either as the result of natural growth or
skillful trimming, is given as Che reason
for the Chinese faith in the universal
efficacy of this drug. Large and choice
specimens of the root are carefully pre-
served in embroidered coverings and in.
closed in cases Of varying sizes, the
whole being locked in brass-bound
chests. An extraordinarily fine specl-
men is worth five hundred dollars. The
hunting Of these roots is pursued with
all the ardor of gold-seeking.
The Chinese have little use for sur
gerry. They resort to cupping and
leeching and lancing OH q small scale,
and that is about as far as they 90.
Morbid growths are removed with what
is known as "the five tigers specific a

FULL DRESS FOR MEN.
Some New Points rs to the Cut of ths
Evening Suit la Mode.

some New Points rs to the Gut OF the
Evening Suit la Mode.
The last authoritative report, giving
in minutest detail the proper manner of
cutting dress suits, is as follows: The
length of the coat for a man standing
five feet eight inches is eighteen and q
half inches to the waist and thirty-six
inches to the bottom of the skirt. The
back is cut with moderately high
shoulder seam, a narrow back scye, a
side seam moderately curved and a
width at the tack of one and three
quarters inches. The gorge should be
cut slightly longer and lower than for a
double breasted frock coat, and the
lapels, which are light. should be made
considerably peaked. They are spaced
for five holes, and are made to turn just
above the second hole from the bottom.
The silk facing should extend only to
the end of the collar, The lapels at the
bottom are very slightly rounded and
the skirts at the hips are turned very lit
tie, and at the bottom they are rounded

very narrow binding. The sleeves are
cut so as to be shapcly, having but little
fullness at the top, and are made just
large enough at the bottom to inclose
linked cuffs smoothly. They are finished
to initiate tolerably deep cuffs, and close
with two holes and buttons. The fronts
should just meet at the termination of
the roll when pressed close to the body,
and below that point are well cut away,
The vest closes with four buttons SO
spaced that the opening corresponds
with that of the coat. The length should
be the same as that of the coat to the
bottom of the strap. The collar is so
curved that the opening resembles a
shield in shape.
The trousers conform to the outline of
the leg in more shapely manner than
when made for business or day wear.
The. side seams should be plain. They
are well shaped oyer the calf and about
the ankle, in order that upon the foot
they may fall as smoothly as possible.
The pockets should be placed in the
waist seam.-Boston Herald.

AN INTELLIGENT GOOSE.
Gander Which Was Not as Stupid as the
Rest of Its Family.

The Talker finds in recent book on
1.-THE Intelligence of Animals "a story
which goes to show that the goose is not
always such a silly and stupid creature
as some would have us believe. Years
ago in a little village of Germany an
aged blind woman might have been seen
on her way to church every Sunday, led
by a gander which walked calmly in
front of its mistress, holding her gown
in his beak. As ,r soon as
the old woman was seated in her
pew. the gander retired to
the churchyard to feed upon the grass,
and when the service was ended he con-
Quoted his mistress to her home. One
day the pastor called to pay his old par
ishioner visit, but found she had cone
out: on his expressing some surprise to
her daughter that she would trust her
mother to go out alone, she, replied:
"Oh, sir, we have nothing to fear; my
mother is not alone, the gander is with
her. Christian at Work.

a,l.g a. Halls of Litigation. 4I.es.,
The ancient volcano Popocatepetl has
got into the courts. Not that it has
been bodily transported into the halls OF
litigation, but it is the subject of novel
suit at law. "a For many years General
Ochoa has been the owner of the volcano,
the highest point Of land in North
America, together with all its appur-
tenances. The crater contains fine
quality of sulphur, which the General
has been extracting, giving employment
to Indians who cared to stay down in
the vaporous old crater. The property
was at one time fairly profitable, but
now it appears that the volcano was,
some time ago, mortgaged to Carlos
Reeamier, who brings suit of foreclosure.
The papers have been joking about the
matter, some asking what Recamier in

gets legal possession. He has been SOL
