A Great Victory
A Terrible Case of Scrofuia
Cured by
Hoods SarsapariIIa

"In the winter of 1879 was attacked with
Scrofula in one of the most aggravating forms.
At one time had no less than thirteen large
assesses over and aroundmy neck and throat,
continually exuding an offensive mass Of
bloody matter disgusting to behold, and
almost intolerable to endure. 1t is impossible
to fully describe my sufferings, as the case
was complicated with Chronic Catarrh. After
three years of misery, having been treated by
three physicians, l was worse than ever.
Finally, on the recommendation of W. j.
Huntley, druggist, of Lockport, was induced
TO try Hoods Sarsaparilla. And now, after
having taken twelve bottles, within the last
twelve months the scrofuous eruptions have
entirely ceased, and the assesses have all
disappeared, except the unsightly sears which
are daily becoming smaller by degrees, and
beautifully less / do not know what it may
have done for others, but do know that in
my case, Hoods Sarsaparilla has proved an
effective specific indeed. As an evidence of
my gratitude l send these facts unsolicited,
and am ready to verify the authenticity Of
any one who doubts it." CHARLES A. ROB-

Chinese Punishment.

The Chinese penal Code provides that
when an unskillful physician, in admins
tering medicines or using the acupunc-
ture needle, proceeds contrary to the
established forms and thereby causes the
death of patient, the magistrate shall
call in other physicians to examine the
medicine or the wound. If it appear
that the injury done was llnintentional,
the practitioner shall then be treated ac-
cording to the statute for accidental
homicldes, and shall not be allowed any
longer to practice medicine. But if he
have designedly departed from the estab-
lished forms. and has practiced deceit
in his attempts to cure the malady in or
der to gain property, then according to
its amount, he shall be treated as thief
and fdeath ensues from his malpractice,
then for having thus used medicine with
intent to kill, he shall be beheaded.
There appears to be nothing in the tee
lestias' code answering to the laws of
barbarian nations concerning civil
damages recoverable by parties made to
suffer by "unintentional' malpractice.

The common practice of raising faint
ing persons to a sitting or upright posi-
tion is often sufficient to destroy the
spark of life which remains. The death
of an eminent English Statesman q short
time ago gave opportunity TO the Coroner
for emphasizing this fact, and of point

sound it is to keep such persons IN the

Endurance of the Lananese.

When one rejects that there is never
fire which would fill a half bushel
measure; that the Japanese wear no
wooden garments, and only sandals OF
clogs on their feet; that the Winters are
cold enough to make ice two or three
inches thick, and the ground is often
white with snow, one wonders how they
live, writes a correspondent from Japan
to the Chicago Null. There seems to be
something peculiar in the physical make,
up of the Japanese, as we'll as in their
plants, which enables them to endure
safely great cold. am told that plants
which in America are killed by Autumn
frosts here live and bloom in the midst
of snow, and when the thermometer has
gone much below the freezing point.
Certainly the people have wonderful
powers of endurance if their sensations
are as ours are.
Every Japanese, high or low, takes his
hot bath every night. He jumps into a
vat of water heated from 100 to lis de-
grees and enjoys the boil, and stands fer
hours up to his waist in cold, mountain
torrents, and it is said will break the ice
in Winter and work up to his neck in
immersion, and seems to feel no i'll effects
from it. He is certainly wonderful
animal, and chronological data must yet
be furnished to convince me that he is
not indigenous to the soil he lives on.

The Origin Of Beer.

Ale was the sole title of malt liquor
until the reign of Henry VIII, up to
which time the employment of hops as
an Ingredient in the beverage was un,
known in England. In the year 1924,
or thereabouts, the use of hops was intro
duced from Germany, and to distinguish
the new kind of malt liquor from the old,
the German name bier was adopted, and,
with an infnitesimal change Of spelling,
became part of our language. Germany,
in truth, is the native land of beer, and
nowhere in the world is it treated with
such special honor. In Germany the
drinking of beer is not, as with us, a
mere means of carnal refreshment, but,
particularly among the students of the
universities, is eleyated to the dignity OF
cult, familiarity with whose ritual is
deemed an essential branch Of liberal
education. CornhiN.
