Endnrance of ono Japancse.

When one rejects that there is never
a fire which would fill half bushel
measure; that the japanese wear no
wooleh 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 correspondent from Japan
to the Chicago Mil There seems TO bG
something peculiar in the physical make.
up Of the japanese, as well as in thcii
plants, which enables them to endure
safely great cold. am told that plants
which in America arc 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 il 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 1i5 dc.
grees and enjoys the boil, and stands fer
hours up to hls waist in cold, mountain
torrents, and it is said will break the ice
in Winter and work mp to his neck in
immersion, and seems to feel no in effects
from it. lie is certainly a wonderful
animal, and chronological data must yet
be furnished to convince me mat he is
not indigenous TO the soil he lives on.

The common practice of raising faint.
ing persons to a sitting or upright posi-.
tion is often sufficient TO de.troy the
spark Of life which remains. The death
Of an eminent English Statesman n short
time ago gave opportunity TO tho Coroner

sound it is TO keep such persons IN the

If possible, to regain consciousness.
