I am resolved hence- forth with the help of God to convene the worthiest men possessing the con fidence of the people and elected by them to participate in the elaboration and consideration of legislative meas ures.
 Taking into consideration the pecu- liar circumstances of the fatherland, it's multiplicity of races and in certain parts of the country, the weak devel- opment of citizenship. Russian rulers in their wisdom instituted reforms in accordance with their mature require- ments. but only in logical sequence. at the same time considering the continu- ation for firm historical ties with the past as pledge for the durability and stability of the present.
 Tn undertaking these reforms I am convinced that local needs and experi- ence of life, well weighed and sincere speech of those elected will ensure fruitfulness of a legislation for the real benefit of the people. At the same time I foresee all the complexity and difficulty presented in the elaboration of this reform while preserving abso- lutely the immutab1lity of the funda- mental laws of the empire.
 T have confidence in your long ad- ministrative experience and value your tranquil assurance in appreciation of special conference to meet under your presidency to consider means to accomplish this. my will.
 May God bless this good beginning May God help you successfully to se- cure the welfare of the people con- fined to me by God.

Chinese Ecsaila.

Chinese paleontology is not an
uninteresting subject. The Chinese
have for long been interested in
fossils in practical if not in very
scientific way. Thus slabs of lime
stone with fossil trilobites are a
common article Of commerce. They
are known as "petrified swallows" "
and the tailpiece, or pygidium, of
one of these trilobites bears a strik-
ing resemblance to a swallow with
widely outspread wings. The cele-
brated "pagoda stones," used to
make ornamental panels and screens,
are slabs of stone with sections Of
the fossil sl'.ll orthoceras, and these
latter, along with rhynconella and
other fossil shells, are to be found in

MEDICINE IN PERSIA,
a euro That Pleased the Doctor Mora
Than the Patient.

a curo That Pleased the Doctor Mora
Than the Patient.
Of the progress of medical science
the Persian people know little. They
divide diseases into two classes, hot
and cold. A cold remedy is applied
to "hot" disease and hot rerc,dy
TO "cold" one. In "With the Pill
grims to Mecca" the author tells his
experience with one of their physi-
clans:
The evening before left Mecca for
Jlddah l was suffering from a rack
ing headache, and my friends advis-
ed me to consult certain Arab ply
sician.
In the east they never break the
ice of silence with remark on the
weather. The customary opening is
to inquire if you are in health. I
told the doctor in answer to his
question that / had bad headache
and had come to him to be cured.
He asked me on which side the head
ached. / touched the spot, where
upon he fell to rubbing it vigorously
with the palm of his right hand,
calling out the while to the urchin
to fetch the necessary apparatus for
the forthcoming operation. The
boy disappeared. In a few minutes
he came back, bearing in both hands
a round, hollow plate of clay in
which were a few Jumps Of burning
charcoal.
the next thing he brought in were
q couple of iron rods about twice the
length of an ordinary pencil, togeth-
er with cup filled with a black
liquid composed, if I mistake not, of
starch and the SCOT of an oil lamp.
The doctor thrust the rods in the
glowing charcoal. The fear of be-
ing branded bathed my brow in
sweat. The doctor assured me I had
no cause to be afraid.
The tips of the rods by this time
were red hot. Having dipped them
in the cup of ink, he closed his eyes
and then raised his voice in an in
cantation that lasted several min
utes. Not single word could I un-
derstand. When it was over he
opened his eyes and, saying the
word "Bismillah," proceeded to
draw with one of the rods, now cool,
on my right temple five perpendicu-
lar lines crossed by five horizontal
ones, thus forming sixteen tiny
squares. Several magic hieroglyph-
les besides were inscribed in the
same manner behind my ears and on
the nape Of my neck.
After every operation the good
doctor would pause to ask me, els
the pain gone now?'' Four times
did I tell the truth. Then, fearing
further tattooing, I assured the per-
severing little man that I thought
I was better.
His joy knew no bounds. He said
the secret was left to him as &c in-
heritance from his father and that
on no account must I wash off the
signs until the next day or the pain
would return.
