A RELIC OF BARBARISM.
Belief in Remedial Qualities of Par
of the Human Bodv.

Of the Human Body.
That belief the Chinese have in
the remedial qualities of substances
forming a part of the human body
seems to be irradicable, saws the
New York Times. Thinking that
Europeans still held the same sillv
ideas led as muck as anything else
to the Tien-Tsin massacres of
twenty-five years ago. Prehistoric
man drank from a human skull, be-
lieving that the uncanny goblet had
a certain potency.
Not so long ago the skull of a
suicide was used in Caithness as a
drinking-cup for the cure of
epilepsy. Gases have been cited
where superstitious people, within
the last thirty years, have dug up
bodies so as to possess themselves of
skulls for the anne purpose. AS
late as 1678in the official pharma-
copeia Of the London College of
Physicians mention is made of the
skull "of a man who had died a
AVN SoeA. IOI centuries III UQo
past, for the manufacture of certain
quack nostrums, notably an ONT
ment, ground skulls we're used. The
medical books of Nuremberg of two
hundred years ago also cite mumia-
or the embalmed flesh of mummies
AS a sovereign cure for certain
diseases. The Egyptian mummy was
a specific for n malady, the Ten
eriffe mummy for another.
Excluding all the other strange
substances employed In early medi-
cine, there is a trace of cannibalism
In the use of these mummied sub
stances. 1t has been shown that
caunibalism does not arise in all
cases from hunger, but that to cot
human flesh is a religious rite and
favored by the gods. In some re-
mote manner it has something to do
with sacrifice. Describing super
stitions the fact is cited that to-day
Irish peasants use skulls to hold
water in under the belief that the
water thus becomes curative.

All who heard DR.. Joseph Cook
at the Y. NJ. {. A. last evening
agreed that his was the best lee
ture ever delivered in Honolulu. The
visitor spoke considerably over All
hour to large and very attentive
audience. DR.. Cook was presented
by Chief Justice Judd. They were
fellow students at Yale and the
lecturer is the guest here Of the
Hawaiian jurist.
In a few predatory remarks the
speaker made kindly mention of
the Republic, expressing best
wishes for its welfare and success.
He then took up and handled most
skillfully and Interestingly what he
regards as the Seven Modern
Wonders" These are:
The speed Of Intercourse Among
Nations.
L llC NClOl lidllOll vi ilClhlie

The Parallel Advances Of Educa-
lion and Representative Govern
ment.
Prospective Moral Alliance of
Advanced Nations.
Triumph Of Christianity in Our
Era.
The fulfilment OF Prophecies.
The Advance of Sciences the Eli
Of Faith.
In all of these fields Of thought
DR.. Cook led his hearers cheeringly,
unerringly and conclusively in the
direction Of the goal OF progress and
along the lines of the duties OF
higher citizenship.
1t is very generally expressed
wish that DIR. Cook lecture agair

be 20 doubt of his ability to fill the
position impartially and with be-
coming dignity.
Judge Magoon was born in AL
gona, Kossuth County, Iowa, July
%, 1858, but soon his family moved
back to their old home in Maine
and Alfred had an opportunity to
take coasters down the highest
hills in the vicinity of his home
every winter during the next nine
years. But his father was then a
young man and California offered
greater inducements to him than
did Maine, and he moved out there
and the young man was placed in
Heald's Business College remain
ing there until 1874 when he was
graduated. He entered mercan-
tile life Immediately, filling the
position of bOokkeeper with several
well known firms. He was en-
gagged for a time in the office of the
Santa Rosa Democrat where he
learned the "art preservative." !"
His parents moved to Honolulu
in 1876, and their son Joined them
shortly afterward and secured a
position as bookkeper on the Hal
stead plantation at WaiaIua, on
this island 1t was during this
engagement that he decided to
adopt law as a profession, and
spent what spare time he had from
his books in reading Blackstone
and Chitty.
He remained on the plantation
for q year and then entered the
office of Benjamin H. Austin, where
he remained for a year, when his
straitened finances compelled him
to abandon it for the more lucrative
position of deputy sheriff at Maka-
wac, Maui He afterward resigned
and took the position of bOOkkeeper
at Paia Mill and pursued his study
of the law as the opportunity was
offered. In 1888 he resigned and
went to Ann Arbor University,
where he took law course Upon
his graduation two years later he
returned to Honolulu and was ad-
mitted to the bar.
He has, perhaps, the largest
practice of any of the memb bers OF
the Honolulu bar, and it was this
fact that compelled him to refuse
the judgeship when he was first
called upon to take it.
