WHY LATIN is USED.

"Why doesn't the doctor write his
prescriptions in English instead of
Latin?" ashed man of a druggist.
In the first place, Latin is more
exact and concise language than Eng
lish, and being dead language does
not change, as ali living languages do.
Then, again, since Il very large part
OF all the drugs in use are botanical,
they have in the pharmacop@a the
same names they have in botany-the
scientific names. Two-thirds of such
drugs haven't any English names, and
so couldn't be written in English.
But suppose doctor did write a
prescription in English for an unedu-
Gated patient. The patient reads it,
thinks he remembers it, and so tries to
get it filled from memory the second
time. Suppose for instance, it called
for iodide of potassium, and he got it
confused with cyanide Of potassium.
He could safely take ten grains of the
first, but one of the second would kill
him.
That's an extreme case, but it will
serve for an illustration. Don't you
see how the Latin is 4 protection and
a safeguard to the patient? Prescrip-
tions in Latin he can't read, and conse-
quently does not try to remember.
Now for final reason. Latin is
language that is used by scientific men
the world over and no other language
is. You can get Latin prescription
filled in any country on the face of the
earth where there is drug store.
We had prescription here the 9TH
er day which he had put up originally,
and which had since been stamped by
druggists in London, Paris, Berlin,
Constantinople, Cairo, and Calcutta.
What good would an English prescrp-
tion be in st. Petersburg.
There is one little maxim
That now | will name,
Which may bring what is better
Than riches or fame.
All those who will heed it
Good appetite find,
Strong nerves, rosy checks,
And vlgor of mind.
1t will Danish dyspepsia,
Rheumatics and gout,
That Tired Feeling conquer,
Drive scrofula out,
y And here is the maxim
Its wisdom is sure
Take Hoods Sarsaparilla
And keep your blood pure.
Absence som atimcs makes the heart
grow fonder.

Don't you think that man should
look up to higher thoughts?" asked
the slightly mystical person.
Its no use, answed Senator Sor
@hum, impaticntly. You can't do it"
Cant do what -

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-THE report
ed indIgnity to an American citizen at
johannesburg, South Africa, arising out
of his being mistaken for a KafFir, has
not been reported to the state depart
ment, and the view prevails among the
officials that 1t Is hardly likely to as
sumo an international aspect. The re-
lations between the British colonistS
OF South Africa and the Americans in
that quarter have been Of the most sat-
isfactory character, so much so that
their interests have been regarded as
alike in the recent controversy over the
rights Of the outlanders in the Trans
wal. For this reason the incident at
johannesburg is felt by officials here
TO be exceptional and in no way indl-
catEve OF hostility to Americans.

Endioott, chief of the bureau of yards
and docks Of the navy department, may
submit the bids for the League Island
dock which was opened on Saturday to
the legal officers of the department for
a decision. This action may be neces-
sary owing to the confusion arising
from some OF the conditions made by
the bidders rendering 1t difficult for the
bureau to figure out which is the low
est bidder. From the Grst examination
OF the bids Admiral Eudicott believes
that the award should SO TO either the
