Mr.. Richardson of Tennessee has intro
duced q resolution in the House restoring
the wages of printers and book5inders at

These missionaries after their house was de-

Tho bodies were allowed to lie in the pub,

agreed upon are these:
Two men whom the native authorities de-

headed. Ten accessories ure to be banished.
An indemnity Of S+U.UOD is to hc paid to the
families of the victims. aud the local mandarin

For these concessions the Chinese demand

1t was only by n strong appeal to II Hung

Interesting Secret History Of
an 0ld-time Remedy.

A certain well-known prepara-
ton is so largely prescribed by
physicians that its use by them
may be said to be universal Con-
versationallv it is spoken of among
themselves as the "R. q s. Compo."
If you are i'll and call the doctor,
no matter what else you get, you
are moderately certain to get some
one OF the forms of tho "R. e. s. y
prescription.
Its use has been growing more
general for a hundred years, and
has been vastly increased of late by
slight improvements found to be
important in effects.
The prescription, especially in
rural districts, is usually prepared
in fluid form, sometimes in powders (;
but recently it has been found pos
sible to prepare it in tablets, the
form now so popular with physi-
clans for all standard medicines.
SO enormous is tho demand from
physicians solely, for the various
forms of this preparation, that q
single manufacturing chemist in
New York City made and sold
three hundred and fifty thousand
pounds of these tablets in the year
1S93--and this, be it borne in mind,
was to physicians alone, or to fill
orders from dealers from whom
physicians obtain their supplies.
Every physician of eminence has
his "R. & S." formula, varying
more or less from the original, but
substantially the same-.that is, de-
pending upon the bases indicated
by the letters Il. Il s.
The Ripans Tabules represent
the latest and most improved form
of this preparation. The sepa-
rate letters composing tho word
R-l-P-A-N-S are tho initials
of the six ingredients. Every doc
tor knows what they are.
The A and n represent the prin-
cipal changes in the formula, which
have been found of vast importance
and efficiency.
