All Day at the Desk.

Even in the strongest constitutions the
stock of vitality is not inexhaustible. All day
at the desk, without due mOdicum of out
Of door exercise, is calculated to pump the
Inherent vigor out of healthy man or wo-
man with as much certainty as water is
pumped out of ships hold by a donkey
engine. Application to business is praise
worthy of course, but this may be overdone.
Expand your lungs, stretch your limbs with
vigorous exercise occasionally, and above
all. if you find that overwork has made in
roads upon health, try a course of Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitters, which stimulates di-
gestion and regulates the bowels, liver and
system generally. 1t is the king of tonics,
and possess qualities which, say physicians,
commend it to the use of invalids in general.
Beneficial in malarial, rheumatic, kidney

ApOthecaries.

It is supposed that the Arab ply.
sicians first invented the prescription,
and so gave rise to the necessity of
providing special place for the sale
Of drugs. From Cardova and Granada
the practice passed into Italy. The
medical schools Of Naples or Salerno
brought into use the prosecutions of
Avicenna and the ancientS, and most
of the materials for medicine came
from Arabia and the distant East
In many cities the apothecaries'
shops were established at the public
expense; gardens were prepared for
raising the necessary plants and
herbs; laboratories, furnaces, and the
means of distillation were added;
royal women sometimes presided
over the preparation of drugs, and
the court apothecary was held in high
esteem.
In Brunswick princess maintained
a drug shop at her court for the bene-
fit Of the poor, and gave away medi-
cines and distilled waters to strang-
ers as well as to her own people.
The apotnecary, however, had
plenty of defamers 4emnius asserted
that the early English lived longest
when no physic Was used in the island.
Montaign suggests that doubtless his
father and grandfather reached a
peaceful old age because they avoided
drugs, and Cardan thought there was
much 'cozening" among doctors.
INT in mi Of I'D
druggists shops, from the fifteenth
century. continued to spread rapidly
over Europe, and rose to such splendor
that it is not likely those of Bagdad
or Cordova would have compared IA
vorably with their modern rivals.
Among the early materials, precious
stones and jewels held high place.
A topaz, if hung about the neck, was
supposed 80 resist sorrow and re-
create the heart" The onyx kept
the whole body in good condition.
Coral was a cure for many ills; the
emerald was equally effective. But
the lodestone. according to Cabeus,
the Jesuit, was the most marvellous
of all. for If taken inwardly, it would
restore to the patient his vanished
youth.

Truth thinks ii "odd that Emin Bey

OF the general public. He was a man
who stood head and shoulders above
many of the men who have won undy-
ing renown in Africa, in courage,
executive ability and a genius for or
ganization and Government. His
physique was by no means robust he
had the stoop of a student, and the tra-
ditionsl spectacled face of German
physician. Yet he was in reality man
Of heroic courage and unquestionable
force of character. He did not start
across the continent of Africa with
brass horns, reporters, and hired mer-
cenaries, but recruited his soldiers
from the savages themselves. He
taught the barbarians to build mills
and factories, and held the Arabs at
bay, even when so great soldier as
Gordon failed. 10 seems to me in
credible that this marvellous pioneer
should have been killed, but the evi-
i1ence seems overwhelming. He had
season to complain bitterly of his treat
ment in Africa, and he had not even
che sOlsce OF fame, which has come 10

into the wilds of that still undiscov-
