SWEARING oATHS ON BOOKS.
Broken Plates and Slaughtered Cocks Are
Also Used For Special Gases.

Broken Plates and Slaughtered Cocks Are
Also Used For Special Cases.
The form of oath when the witness is
sworn in English courts of justice varies
according to the religion or the country OF
the witness. Thus Christians are sworn
on the New Testament, Jews on the Old
Testament, Mohammedans on the Koran
and persons of other religions according to
the form prescribed for that purpose by
the religion they profess.
To take an extreme instance. the fol-
lowing is given in one reported case as the
form of swearing a Chinese: On enter
ing the witness box the witness immedi-
ately knelt down, and china saucer hav-
ing been placed in his hand. he struck it
against the brass rail in front of the wit
ness box and broke it. The crier of the
court then, by direction of the interpreter,
administered the oath in these words,
which were translated by the interpreter
into the Chinese language: You shall tell
the truth and the whole truth. The sau-
Ger is cracked, and if you do not tell the
truth your soul viii be cracked like the
saucer. -
1t is provided by statute passed so far
back as 1887 that oaths in courts of jus
tice may be administered in such form
and with such ceremonies as the person
taking them may declare to be binding.
No one accordingly can be compelled to
kiss the book if he declares another form of
oath to be binding on his conscience.
In connection with the Chinese oath a
story is told of a representative of the
Middle Kingdom who once appeared TO
give evidence at Bow street. He was po-
litely consulted as to the method in which
he would prefer TO be sworn. "Oh, " he
said, with breadth Of outlook not com
mon in Sir John Bridges court, kill i'm
cock, break i'm plate, smell sim book, all
ey!''-Westmins Gazette.

Bellinger this morning rendered an I'M
9ortant decision on a question in point.
Exactly the reverse of a decision rendered
by Judge Caldwell in the Union Pacific

Judge Caldwell decided that the receivers
had no power TO change the schedule and
rules, but should petition the court to
make the change In his decision Judge
Belliuger said the court cannot be ex-
pected TO stand over tie receiver and fol-
low him through the minute details OF
his work. Under the rule proposed, which
was the che laid down by Judge Caldwell,
the receiver might want TO make a hum

which the court would have 10 give an

Rules for q Clear Skin.

Don bathc in hard water; soften it
with a few drops Of ammonia or lit
tie borax. Don't bathe your face
while it is very warm, and never use
very cold water for it. Don't attempt
to remove dust with cold water; give
your face hot bath, using plenty Of
good soap; then give it thorough
rinsing with water that has had the
chill taken off it. Don't rub your
face with coarse towel; just remem-
Der that it is not made Of cast iron,
and treat it as you would the finest
porcelain-gently and delicately.
Don't use sponge or linen rag for
your face, choose instead flannel
one. Don't believe you can get rid of
wrinkles by filling the crevices with
powder. Instead give your face a
Russian bath every night, that is, to
bathe it with water so hot that you
wonder how you can stand it, and
then, minute after, with cold water
that will make it glow with warmth;
dry it with soft towel, and go to
bed, and you ought to sleep like ba-
by while your skin is growing frmel
and coming out of the wrinkles and
you are resting.-Ladics' Home Jour-
nal.

Tho Medicinal Value Of Hot Water.

One Of the best remedies for bilious
ness, dyspepsia, and loss Of appetite
is to be found in the contents Of the
steaming tea-kettle. Many, like Naa-
man, will undoubtedly turn away from
this simple, inexpensive, easily-to-be-
obtained medicine with distrust. It
would be exceedingly difficult to in
duce them to give it a trial. The very
fact that it is free to all without
money and without price, makes it
seem Of no value to them and in
stead of using medicine that has
been frequently proved to be both
safe and efectual, they prefer to so
on dosing themselves with doubtful
and injurious drugs.
The testimony Of one ladyfor whom
goblet Of hot water an hour before
eating was prescribed by her physi-
clan is to the effect that it acts as a
gentle cathartic, promotes healthy ac-
tion of the liver and kidneys, and, as
natural consequence, cleanses the
tongue and creates an appetite.
Another lady, for whom three cups
Of hot water an hour and half before
each meal and an hour before
retiring, were prescribed, asserts hav-
ing noted that a little while after
drinking it she finds herself SO hum
cry she can scarcely wait the hour
and half that must elapse before her
meal. This lady states thatfor fifteen
years previous to the time when she
began drinking hot water she had
rarely known what it was to feel hun
cry or to relish her food. She had
also observed that when away from
home where she could not obtain hot
water before meals, her appetite de-
parted in spite OF the fact that various
delicacies to tempt it were provided
for her. She also testi6es to the eff
cacy Of hot water as cleanser OF the
system, as a cure and prevention Of
gravel and similar diseases, and to it's
favorable action upon all the digestive
organs. lin common with another ex-
perimimenter, she further af6rms that
it is decidedly stimulating; that after
drinking it one feels decidedly re-
freshed and strengthened.
Others have proved hot water to be
an eAectual remedy for sick headache
and pains in the stomach or bowels,
caused by indigestion.
Judging from this array Of evidence
would it not be as well for our bodies,
and better for our pocketbooks, if we
patronize the tea-kettle more and the
doctor less?- Christian at Work.
