Curious Chinese Medicines.
Washington Start


Inc meGlclnes of Caucasian civiliza-
ton are derived from many a curious
origin, but if you want to find funny
things utilized as remedies for disease
YOU will discover them in the Chinese
pharmacopnia.
Medical science in that country has
been somewhat impeded by the respect
which the Chinese pay to dead body.
Worshiping their ancestors as they DO,
their physicians would never think OF
cutting up corpse. Consequently they
know nothing Of anatomy. such knowi-
edge on the subject as they pretend 10
possess is derived, according to their
own account, from a man born some
centuries ago, who had the misfortune
TO be of a transparent consistency,
physically speaking, as if he were made
of glass, SO that it was possible to see
just how things went on in his inmdes.
From observation Of this extraordi-
nary freak it was discovered that GER
tain channels ran to each part and ex-
tremity of human being, and that by
these channels it was possible to convey
any remedy that might be necessary to
any organ or member requiring treat
ment internally. Ever since then celes-
tial doctors have been able to ten just
what sort of pills or decoctions were in
tended for the cure of this or that dis
order. The glass man doubtless suffered
from the experiments tried upon him by
science, but medical knowledge was
benefited inexpressibly.
Probably the Chinese pharmacop@ia
is more elaborate than that possessed by
any other people. Physicians in the
Flowery Kingdom mix up together such
extraordinary things for remedial pur-
poses as we should never dream or. One

A Farmer Huntsman.
IOuting.l


Ihe last conner was one of the farmer
members Of the hunt. His dress was
careless, his horses coat lacked the sleek,
shiny appearance of the others noted.
His hat had jam in it. No gloves COW
cred his hands. His boots were ordinary
leather with no spurs attached. He wore
a flannel shirt, and actually hadn't a
crop" In other words, he didn't use a
whip OF anything else to protect himself
from the trees and bushes. But he sat
on his horse not like centaur-that is
too stiff-but as if he had never been
out of saddle since he was born.
From the waist to the knees his body
seemed rigid as iron, so firm was his
seat. Above the waist his body was per-
fectly flexible, inclining according to the
gait of the horse. His legs hung easily.
with the feet projecting forward and
pointing outward in the stirrups. Most
of the time while riding his left hand
was in his trousers pocket, his right
holding his bride rein loosely and close
down to the saddle. Such is a brief pen
picture Of n man who, though riding at
over 200 pounds weight, is counted as
one of the best and most daring horse
men in the valley.

While on our way to the south part
of the county last Saturday we passed
the farm of Mr.. A. Fasig, on Five Mile,
and noticed that this gentlemen was con-
structing an immense reservoir or pond
on bis farm. The reservoir is in the
midst of large cultivated field and will
be supplied with water from a huge
windmill. In to-day's paper may be
found an article bearing upon the merits
of these reservoirs or ponds and the want
they are intended to fill. We hope more
of our farmers will follow the example
of Mr.. Fasig.
