Our italian Citizens,
From American Medicine

from American Medicine
The Italian immigrant is the subject Of q
capital special number of that excellent
periodical, Charities, and the Revista Com
merciale has published the results of a
statistical investigation of the Italians OF
New York city. One is astonished to learn
that there are in that city 49,, IT'S Italians,
the great majority below forty-five years
of age. and nearly $4,000 are being added
each year Although 4S per cent are utter
ly illiterate, the fact remains that they are
most valuable additions to our popula-
tion." For instance, from the investiga-
ton made by the committee of fifty OF
nearly 10000 cases in the records of or
ganiZed charity it was shown that in 20
per cent of the German cases, "a per cent
of the American cases, % per cent of the
English ca ses and 80 per cent of the Irish
cases the principal cause of distress was
intemperance; in only 31a per cent of the
Italian cases was intemperance the cause.
American city life is having a bad effect
upon them. The sudden change of diet Is
responsible for an increase of certain dis
eases. The change from the stone cottage
in the open fields to the dark and unventi-
lated tenement of Mulberry and Mott
streets has resulted in an alarming spread
of tuberculosis. Doctor Stella, In his prac-
tice in New York has known as many as
twenty-five cases of pulmonary tuberculosis
In one year in single tenement house.

Old China as Table Decorations.

From the London Graphic.
Georgina. Countess OF Dudley. is said to
have been the first hostess who grasped the
possibilities Of old pieces of gold and silver
as table decorations.
Old china lends itself to this purpose as
readily, as was proved at the dinner party
given by Baron and Baroness Alphonse de
Rothschild this week in their fine mansion,
Rue Saint Florentin. The flowers We're the
priceless orchids for which the baron's con-
servatories at Ferrieres are celebrated. and
the golden and mauve tints of the ex-
quisite blossoms were thrown into harmon
ious relief by the pieces of green Sevres
china placed on the table. A London hostess
not long ago made a sensation by decorat-
ing her table entirely with La France roses
and using a dinner service of pink Sevres,
matching the flowers perfectly.

To Liberate Princess Louise.

Paris Corr. Of the London Telegraph.
Some little esGkement has been aroused
by the presence in Paris of Count Mat
tachicb. who fell into so much trouble
owing to- his attentions to Princess Louise
of Sake Coburg- Gotha, daughter of the
King of the Belgians. In a letter which the
count has sent to the Temps, and which Is
published in that paper today, the ex-
ofacer affirms that he has come to France
for the fixed purpose of bringing about by
all possible means the liberation of Princess
Louise, who. he emphatically declares. Is
not. and never was. insane, and he will
prove that the reports spread to that ef-
feet can only be regarded asa tissue OF lies.

Nature Sometimes Cures Cancer.

From The London Mail.
SHOW. US once what cancer u.s. and We
will very quickly learn to be able TO prevent
1t, and / am quite sure we shall be able TO
cure it, We are as blind men cropping In
the dark" In these words DR.. Pearce Gould
made a striking appeal for help for the
Middesex Hospital. Was there any hope
of discovering the real nature of the dis
ease? said DR.. Gould. He would say In the
strongest way that there was. They had
been trying for centuries to discover some
cure for the malady, and his reason Tor
making that statement was that there were
cases of cancer which got well spontane-
ously. Tho importance of that fact was
great. The fact that nature. without aid.
completely and forever removed this dis
ease absolutely proved that 1t was not In a
category by itself, and they had every
reason to hope that the disease could be
cured.

the sacred sakaki, in honor OF the gods.
The material was changed successfully 10
cotton silk and finally paper.
In the modern temples which exist TO-DAY
in Japan all that is visible to the eye or
the worshiper is a mirror and bundle OF
these zigzag paper cuttings attached TO
rod.
The Various Symbols
The PAPER as now used is generally white,
but on certain occasions yellow, red, black.
white and blue-colored paper is used in
honor of the gods OF wood, fire, earth,
water and metal. respectively.
In 1868 Shnto became the only state re-
ligion of Japan. Buddhist temples were
stripped. purified and handed over to
Shinto keeping The revived religion OF
Shinto which flourished in the htteenth
century proved, however. entirely too feeble
to supplapt Buddhism, and gradually lost
ground Pure Shinto was largely the fad
of the Japanese scholars. for Buddhism had
appropriated and assimilated almost every
thing that was dear to the people In their
old religion.
A Shinto temple proper differs from the
Buddhist terra, a monastery or temple, in
being matched destitute OF furniture,
smaller and usually double. The inner
shrine Chousha) at the back, contains.
carefully inclosed in a succession of boxes.
the sword Of male deity or mirror Of a
female). which is jealousy guarded as the
sacred treasure of the place.
Worshipers ascend the steps in front.
strike the temple gong with a rope pro-
yided for the purpose, smite or rub their
hands together and then depart after
throwing some coins on the floor. At the
entrance to the temple is tori or sacred
arch.
A Hero Worship.
Shinto morally is practically a Rousseau
like following of natural impulses. and pro-
claims neither heaven or hell; its priest
hood is not a caste, nor wholly devoted to
a religious life; It is largely a form Of hero
worship, and intensely national. and its
chief Is Amaterasu, goddess Of the sun.
from whom the mikadO traces his descent.
Other deities are Susano. a kind Of Mars.
presiding over the moon, and mari, the
goddess of rice. Most of the deities appear
to be deified human beings.
Shinshiu or true doctrine is a powerful
sect of japanese Buddhsts. having their
headquarters at Kioto. in the great Nshi
Hongwanji temple. The Shinshiu sect finds
salvation in the extinction OF passion, a
doctrine at once the cause and effect OF sal
vation which salvation is called Nirvana.
The doctrine of help from another is
also taught. and Anita, or the boundless
of merits and a rebirth into paradise. In
this sect there Is less difference than in any
other between laymen and priests, the lat
ter being allowed to marry and to eat flesh
and fish
With the extlnguishment OF these heather
form of worship in Japan the Christian ma
tons of the world will soon welcome into
their fold another land or country adopt
ing Christianity it's national religion.
