CHINESE PHYSICIANS.
They Are Paid by Contract to Keep Their
Patients Well.

There are about one dozen Chinese
doctors in this city.
They do not hang out their signs, but
are kept busy going about calling on
their patients, or customers, as they are
usually healthy people.
These doctors are employed on exact
ly the same plan as they were when
practicing in the Flowery Kingdom, and
Cinnamon generally denounce the Amer
lean plan of engaging physician.
Instead Of sending for the doctor when
a Chinaman becomes sick and paying
him for his visits, he makes a contract
when he's in good health with the med
ical man to be kept in good health for a
certain period at stated figure.
AS soon as the doctor makes o con-
tract he begins work.
Every day he makes hasty call on
his patient and examines him briefly.
If it should be discovered that the pa
tient had been seeing the elephant" on
Mott street the previous night the doc
tor would deliver lecture on his charge
for being SO foolish and leave him some
medicine to reduce the size of his head.
Should there be nothing at all the
matter the doctor hurries away to his
next patient, for he has great many to
see in a day.
The average contract price is about
1886 year, which the doctor receives,
providing the patient keeps well dur
ing the entire time.
If the patient should happen to be
laid up from any cause, 10 cents would
be deducted from the S35 for every day
he was not able to go out of the house.
This method has been in use in China
for hundreds of years oand has been
found to work very we'll.
There is less sickness. and even II tho
sufferer is rich ii is to the doctors ad-
vantage to cure him just as soon as pos
sible and not linger, as some doctors in
this city have been known to do.
A Chinaman will not employ an
American doctor II he can possibly help
1t, because it is believed that the sick
ness will last twice as long under his
treatment.
The Chinese doctor does not have to
visit every patient every day, but he
generally does II he can possibly get
around.
The usual way Is to make contract
with all tho occupants Of house or
laundry for say $3.50 q year. In China
the doctor contracts to take care OF an
entire family, but there are very few
Chinese familios here. IN, Y. World.

AMERICAS DISCOVERY,
Changes Wrought by tho Evcnt In chs
Commerce OF Europe.

Commerce OF Europe.
Tho maritime discoveries Of the Por-
tuguese and the Spaniards at this epoch
brought about an economic revolution OF
most remarkable character. Tho sur
face Of the world available for purposes
OF trade was doubled, commerce was
turned into new channels, the medium
OF exchange was increased fourfold.
These events were concurrent with
social changes which dissolved feudality
and established the basis Of the modern
world. Under the feudal system the
greater part Of Europe had been por-
toned out into large estates; only q
quarter of the soil Of France was oc-
cupied by the people, the rest was held
by the clergy and the nobility. On the
other hand, the large capitalist Of
modern times had no existence. Trade
was almost exclusively in the hands OF
close corporations, passing, like inher-
itances, from father to son, and
guarded by barriers of all kinds.
The two principal centers of commerce.
were the shores of the Mediterranean
and the German littoral from the
Scheldt to the Oder. Distribution OF
commodities took place at the fair of
Lyons on the one hand and at those Of
Frankfort and Cologne on the other; but
it WAS hampered by tolls and customs
which had been established at every
available point By the new discoveries
the Mediterranean ceased to be the prin-
cipal route of traffic to the Indies.
Seville, Lisbon and Antwerp, Rochelle,
Bristol and London succeeded to the In
heritance of Venice, Genoa and Lubbock.
New products came into the market,
while the old ones, previously confined
to the few, became tho property of the
many. But the greatest effect was pro-
duced by the influx of the precious
metals, especially of silver, which was
forty times as common as gold. Each
year during the latter half of the six.
teenth century the mines of Potosi
brought into Spain at least two millions
worth of silver, and those of Mexico as
much again. In Spain the price of COM
modities was increased skiold In
France silver coin fell to half its value,
the price of land was trebled, that OF
food was quadrupled, while wages were,
as rule, only raised so per cent. Simi.
lar results were seen in Italy, Germany
and England. The class which suffered
most were the land owners, who lived
by rents. The lands of the smaller lords
fell into the hands of the wealthy mer-
chants.-Edinburgh Review.

FASHIONS FAvORS.
Things That Arc Fashionable Even If They
Are Not Very Pretty.

Are Not Very Pretty.
Children and young girls are wearing
white cashmere, embroidered in vari-
colored woods and finished with baby
ribbon in matching shades. One with
vines and flowers of mingled blue, pink,
green and yellow had punches of the
baby ribbon combining all these colors,
and yet the little dress was exquisite.
The princesse polonaise has come to
stay, but can only be worn with pleasing
effect by those of well-formed figures. A
polonaise of beige-colored cashmere has
gathered epaulets of bronze silk, on
which are knots of ribbon, and vest,
sleeves and skirt panel of figured silk
canvas in tones of copper, bronze and
beige; the hat of bronze velvet is
trimmed with wreath of shaded velvet
zinnias, and cord Of bronze and copper
edges the brim.
There is revival Of the fashion of
wearing fillets for the hair, and from
the beauty and richness displayed in
some, it is fair to presume that their
resurrection will be welcomed.
Gray is to be we'll worn this winter in
combination with soft yellow and gold
braid.
New lace-trimmed handkerchiefs b ave
quarter-inch hens, and are edged With
inch-wide Valenciennes lace.
For youthful wearers there are very
stylish Spanish-student hats Of dahlia,
prune violet and black velvet trimmed
with gold ornaments and cords. The
Nine. de Stael and close box turbans are
very popular, but they are rivalled by
the toque and new particularly be-
coming English walking hat.
The rage for cane and umbrella heads
of remarkable shape and size, or con-
spicuous, grotesque and costly mount
ings, has gono so far that reaction is
expected this winter, and modest cane
will be the correct thing
Lace founces are greatly used on the
bottom of skirts and ruches of silk, or
the materials are placed on the round
skirts, which have no train.
The fashionable method OF mounting
the back breadths of skirts in the fan
plated style is chiefly adopted for heavy
fabrics in silks or wool, such as cloth,
tweed, sicilienne or poplin. The front
and sides OF the skirt are as plain as
possible, quite round to the center back,
where the fullness is massed in sido
plaits Velvet revers are an ornamental
addition, and an Improvement to fig
ure which is not slender. These revers
should meet at the waist, where they
are narrow and widen to the foot of tho
skirt.
A favorite style in misses rings is q
band with a ribbon wound around its
entire circumference. The rings como
in gold and silver.
Linen collars are again much worn,
the collars high, stiff. straight, with
very small studs.
Shirt fronts are accompanied by white
ties, like mans evening tie, which can
be bought ready, but are far better tied
when on.
The useful and comfortable blouse
waist and its kindred jersey bodice are
such useful articles OF wear that their
reign Is likely TO be prolonged indeh-

aarefoot Cub.n bellies.

A gossipy person relates in New
York paper an interesting story about
two young Cuban girls who several
years ago were leaders in the society
circles in that city, and one OF whom
now sees a title before her name in
print. Shod in the daintiest fashion
wherever convention sequired 1t, these
young women in the privacy OF their
own apartments always sat with their
cunning brown feet without covering Of
silk or kid. Dress skirts were worn
much longer in those days than now,
and so the girls could go pattering about
indoors in their bare feet all they
wanted to without any one's being the
wiser for it unless the owners OF the
feet chose. And the story goes that
they did choose very frequently, and
that 1t was no uncommon thing for visit
ors that were admitted to intimacy in
the house to see in the midst OF an ami
mated conversation pair Of the oun-
ningest bare feet In all the world steal
''like little mice" from underneath
mass OF soft frills, and to see them CO.

"It must not be, Clarissa?" he ex-
claimed, seizing her hand. "You shall

obstacle, stands in the way Of our union :"
"The obstacle, Harry, she murmurod,

A CLEVER DOCTOR.
Knocked His Opponent Down and Tho
Charged for Treating Him.

Knocked His Opponent Down and Then
Charged for Treating Him.
A well-known South Brooklyn surgeon
was passing along Butler street shortly
before midnight, when tho air was sud-
denly rent by woman's screams of ter
ror and cries for help. In the fourth
story windows of tenement house op-
posite he could see the outlines of strug-
Cling forms.
Dashing into the dark hallway and
cropping up the stairs, he reached the
scene of contention and found burly
teamster in frenzy of intoxication
beating and kicking his wife. The doc
tors eye instantly noticed a heavy whip
standing at the foot of the sofa. Seiz-
ing it and "hefting" it for moment, he
brought the loaded butt down upon the
skull of the wife-beater. The man who
delivered the blow had thorough
knowledge of anatomy; the man who
received the blow went down as If
Thousand volts OF electricity had hit him
in the neck.
AS soon as the wife saw blood trick
ling by the husbands ear she began to
blubber out that he was killed.
Don't be alarmed, my good woman"
said her visitor. 81 am Doctor So-and-
So, and I'll repair the slight damage L
have DONE"
While he was putting some stitches in
the wound he had inflicted the sobbing
wife explained that her husband was
naturally kind man, but that he had
that day won a little money on the races
and had become crazed with liquor.
When the surgeon brought the man
back to consciousness he made the pa
tient hand over 50 for medical services
just to impress the occasion on his
memory, he said. The injured man
grumbled and protested, but he had to
pay,-N, Y. Herald.

The Struggle OF Life.

OF the great prizes Of human life 1T is
not often the lot of the most enterpris-
ing to obtain many: they are placed on
opposite sides of the path, so that it is
impossible to approach one OF them
without proportionably receding from
another; whence it results that the
wisest plans are founded on compro
mise between good and evil. where
much that is the object OF desire, the
aim and hope of years, is finally relin-
quished and abandoned in order to So
cure superior advantages. Robert Hall.
