By SIR SHENTING-LIANG-CHING
Chinese Minister to the United States.

The world is paying more attention to the Chi

the fact that beyond her walled Cities across the
wide waters of the sea- her western neighbors have
some things which it we'll that she should pos

looms of the big ocean steamers-where
 even at breakfast there are more teOurses than most passengers are ac-
 customed at dinner-is a bad prepara- tion for protracted bout of seasick- l ness.
 During the attack sufferers are natu- rally disinclined to eat at all. Conse- quently it is. not surprising that this attenuation of repletion and starvation plays havoc with the digestive organs. When the patient actually succumbs | drugs are of some use in alleviating the
 malady. If the attack is severe apply mustard leaf to the stomach and a | hot water bottle to the feet. Three or | four drops of chloroform on lump sugar often prevent vomiting. Give also a
 tumbler of hot milk (which prevents
 straining on an empty stomach) or a | dose of fifteen grains bromide Of soda and five grains antipyrine to one ounce water. Some doctors recommend l cocaine tablets (one-twentieth grain)
 every hour.
 Many medical men consider that if drugs must be taken the best all-around remedy is chlorobrom (not cfIoroform),
 compound of chloraIamide and bro- mide of potassium, while some pin their faith to five grains of bromide of ammonia. ~
 Popular remedies are not, as rule, of much use. An exception may, how ever, be made in favor of yanatas,
 which Is at all events one of the best
 oailatives known while it has proved efficacious as a preventive.
 As to beverages, the popular one of stout is probably the worst a seasiek person can take. Iced dry champagne is about the most suitable, though 1t is more usefll in the depressing and ex- hausting stages of a long attack than at the beginning. It must in short, be regarded as preventive rather than palliative. In obstinate cases it will sometimes be found that wearing an ice belt minimizes the feeling of nausea, or if ice be not procurable. applying cold congresses all along the spine is nearly as effective. Even tightening an orii- nary belt will sometimes reduce the nausea. E.s
 But nal de mer remedies are as the sands of the seashore in number. For instance, one experienced traveller rec- ommends eating a couple of apples di- rectly the feeling of nausea is experi- enced. a
 There is no doubt that nerves have much to do with seasickness. With some reason, medical men declare that fear is the most potent of all remedies. If the ship is really in danger seasick folk, they argue, seem automatically cured. ,. Then, no doubt, imagination is a po- tent and important factor in the case, while visual impressions certainly pre- dispose travelrs to nal de mere For this reason 1t is good plan when on deck, to shut the eyes.--Fron London Travel. .

if it were beaten it would fight to the very last and give the world an example of heroism unsurpassed in any age. Yet the weakness of this people lies in its bitter poverty, and 1t is not certain that this poverty has not reacted on the navy by diminishing the amount of am- munition available for target practice. Thus the temptation to Japan is great. To-day superior, tomorrow inferior; deceived by no promises; piercing astutely through the veil of diplomatic assurances, she knows that Russia
 wants not only Manchuria. but also Corea, and Corea is to Japan vital in terest, a land almost in sight of her own shores, the key, if there is any key,

 The treaty with England, to which
 both nations are pledged and by which
 they will stand, would secure her a clear field in dealing with her antago-
 mist If she should win the progress of
 Russia would be checked for a genera tion; if she lost her national independ- ence would be lost, or compromised for a generation. The stake for her is her
 all everything in life that men hold worthy of sacrifice, hence the terrible
 nature of her dilemma. On land she is
 inferior to Russia, in the fact that she possesses no cavlary worth the name. But in the total of men whom she could bring to bear she is probably superior, and she would unquestionably receive some aid from China, although as to the value of that aid it would be rash to pronounce-Londan Navy League Journal.

The Causes of seasickness and it's
 Cures.
 That seasickness is a malady to which most of us succunb sooner or later, from the seasoned globe trotter to the modest tripper whose experience of for- eign travel is limited to an occasional run to Paris, is 8 fact which Is none the less disquieting because 1t is so ob- vious.
 There is. of course, no infallible cure for seasickness, except perhaps the pro- verbal one of Punch, Don't go to sea- This negative cure is, of course, imprac- ticable for many of us. But though there is no absolute cure, there is no doubt that a common sense regimen be- fore embarking on long voya ge-cross channel trips and other short passages need not be considered-would do much to lesson the risks of seasickness or minimize the attack. The principal causes of this distressing malady are:
 One-Effusion of blood to the brain.
 Two-Disturbance of the digestive system; and certainly those of weak digestion are peculiarly Susceptible to attacks of nal de mer.
 Three-overeating and also undereat- ing. ?
 Those who are subject to seasickness should treat themselves for a few days before the start, live very simply and take a mild aperient. In short, the pre- liminary treatment rowing men under go. before beginning strict training might we'll be followed. Then, it is un- deniable that most people or board ship eat far too much and take too little ex- ercise.

MATHEMATICS AND LAUNCHING

MTAHEMATICS AND. LAUNCHING.
 The launch Of vesesl is primarily a matter os mathematics. In ship of immense size it calls for vast amount of calculation before the first step is taken in the actual work. In the first place. the specific gravity of the ves- seI must be figured out so as to allow for the various strains to which the hull. is subjected on It's slanting jour- rey into the water, with it's sudden plunge as the bow drope from the ways. An enormous amount Of data must be collected to fix this centre of gravity. The weight of all the material that has gone into the vessel up to the time of the launching, the distribution of this weight, the weight of chains and anchors and other material placed on board preparatory to the launch, nuts all be considered. When the centre of gravity is fixed the successful ship builder knows just how to build his launching ways, and just where to strengthen them. He knows then, by a little calculation, how long each part of the vessel will be subjected to cer- tain strains and how best to prepare for them. He can figure almost to the second how long the ship will be in slid ing into the , water.-F'ranklin Mat thews, in Outing.

PURSUIT OF APPENDIX.
Is the Surgical Sport to be Interfered : With?

Is the Surgical Sport to be Interfered With? .
 Dr. John Henry Carsten's argument to the State Medical society against the indiscriminate removal of the vermi-
 form appendix appears to be irregular
 and unethical. We, have always been taught to believe that verniform ap- pendices were what, the lawyers call ferae naturae-wild things in which mo- body can claim property and which anybody is free to take. The better the appendix the better the operation and the more sport in the chase.
 At this late day we cannot accept Dr. Carstens theory that @ healthy appen- dix ought not to be removed. An ap- pendix is an appendix. whether healthy or not, and modern surgery has defi- nitely ascertained that the function of the appendix is to be amput ated. That is it's place in the economy of man. and for countless ages nature has directed her efforts. in the process of evolution, to the bene1cent work of producing a vermiform appendix that could be cas- fly separated from the patient, together with $250. She has succeeded and when Dr. Carsten advises that the appendix be left alone to wither and flap like the last leaf on the tree 1t strikes us that he is counselling the surgeons to violate the ordinances of nature.
 If Carsten would content himself with an imitation of. the fish and game laws, and advocate closed season for the appendix, the suggestion might be wor- thy of serious consideration. Perhaps 1t might be better fof everybody If no appendices were taken, say, between the first of July and the first of octo- Der, and none less than four years old and not more than twenty-five by any one surgeon in a season unless the talk ing of the appendix were absolutely flec- essary to feeding the doctors family. This would be a reasohabie regulation, and it would tend to eliminate the mere pot hunter, who slashesarecklessly and has tendency to remove more appen- dices than his bank account really re- quires. .,, g;.s, s~.- '...,
 However, the details of the closed season can be worked out later. We have no desire to Isurp any of the medical society's functions, but 1t is none too soon to protect against the pernicious doctrine that a. man has right to keep his vernliform appendix merely because it is healthy, or that he had any proper rights, whatever in his appendix. The time has not yet come to beat the scalpels into blow shares and the forceps into pruning hooks.-Detroit Free Press.
