Chinese Dudes,

China is perhaps the last place in the
world where n would expect to find
dudes and Washers, but it appears that
in Shanghai the gilded youth among the
Celestials have adopted the masher cos
tune. Very curious they look in their
high collars and tight fitting coats. They
have also taken to wearing foreign IN
derclothing, eating foreign foods, smok-
ing foreign tobacco and doing many
other things contrary to the old fash
Toned Chinese usage. They also ride in
foreign carriages, men and women to-
gether. and some of them live in foreign
houses in grand style. There are also
hundreds of schools kept by Chinese
where nothing but English is taught,
that being considered the most useful
language.-London Globe.

He seems to be several boys in one,
So much is he constantly e~verywherei
And the mischievous things that boy has done
No mind can remember nor mouth declare.
He fills the whole of his share Of space
With his strong. straight form and his merry
face.
He is very cowerdly. very brave;
He IL kind and cruel, good and bad,
A brute and q hero! Who will save
The best from the worst of my neighbours
lad!
The mean and the noble strive today;
Which of the powers will have its way2
The world is needing his strength and skill.
He will make hearts happy or make them
ache.
What power Is in him for good or i'll?
Which Of life's paths will his swift feet takef
Will lie rise and draw others up to him,
Or the light that is in him burn low and dim?
But what is my neighbours boy to me
More than a nuisance? My neighbor's boy,
Though ] have some fears for what he may be,
Is a source Of solicitude, hope and joy
And u constant pleasure, because I pray
That the best that is in him may rule some
day.
He passes me with q smile and a nod.
He knows / have hope of him, guesses, too,
That | whisper his name when / ask of God
Tia men may be righteous, his will to do.
And / think that many would have more joy
If they loved and prayed for a neighbours boy!

leo Cream Poisoning.

This IS a rcproach to the professions
Of medicine and chemistry. Year after
year. with moErnful reiteration, there
are many reports Of fatal cases. The
deaths from this source must immensely
exceed those from hydrophobia, but Pas,
teur Institutes spring up like mushrooms
in every country, while the deaths Of
the victims of poisoning by the cream
are passed over in silence. Would it not
be well to look into this matter? Would

Of the mixture acting as an e~lectrotype?

Recent discoveries have demonstrated that
ali the organs OF the body are under the con-
troll of the nerve centerS, located in or near
the base OF the brain, and that when these are
deranged the organs which they supply with
nerve fluid are also deranged. When it is, re,
membered that a serious injury to tho spfna
cord will cause paralysis of the body below
the injured point, because the nerve force Is
prevented by tho injury from reaching the
paralyzed portion, it will be understood how
the arrangement of the nerve centerS will
