The Chinese materia medica includes al
 most every variety of vegetable, animal
 and earthly substances They number
 about 10O0-about one remedy for each
 disease to which the system Is subject.
 These are divided as follows: From
 metals and stone, 13S kinds of medicines
 are extracted from grasses and vege-
 tables, such as roots. stubs, leaves, flow
 res and seeds. $50 kinds; from trees, lSo
 kinds are found In the root, bark, trunk,
 leaves. seeds and flowers; from the hI-
 man body, 27 kinds are extracted; from
 animals, 91 kinds; from fowls and birds, S4 kinds; from bugs, worms, shellnsh,
 snakes, turtles and flies, 100 kinds; from fruits, 40 kinds; from vegetables, such as cabbages turnips and melons, etc., t2 kinds, and medicines are also made from wheat, corn and other grains
 Those who make wry faces at swal- lowing blue mass or castor oil may finc some relief in knowing what the sick Chinaman swallows, in learning that the medicine ingredients taken from the hu- man body inclue teeth filings, blood, beard of the upper lip, ashes of the bones of the forehead dandruff, gall and other things ad nauseam.
 From the animal world are taken the teeth and horns of the dragon, musk or | the musk deer, bears gall, deer's glue, sheep's milk, rams horns, mares milk, hoof of a white horse thigh of pay | horse sheep's lung, horns, kidneys ana I gall, deer's horn pulverized and the | bones, eyes and claws of the tiger Ihe | skull heart, brains. teeth and blood or l the dog are used-almost everything ex- cept his bark.

From the Los Angeles Times.

From the Los Angeles Times.
 Several Chinese 'herb" doctors were
 recently arrested in Los Angeles charged
 with practicing without license. An anal ysis. or examination of the herbs and other materials used by them as medi-
 oines, was almost enough to make one seasick This disclosure will no doubt be comforting to the numerous white pa tients of the Oriental physickers. It per
 haps would have been better for them to
 have borne the ills they mad rather than
 to rush to the herb doctor and take a
 dose of dope" consisting of dogs gall, hoof of a white horse, pulverized deer horn and the spittle of a striped frog i This is an ordinary prescription for a fe- yer, which Is either driven out by drastic remedies, or coaxed out by what they consider as milder medicines. Fortunate l ly the white patients do not know what | they are taking else the remedy would l be more narrowing than the disease. Chi- nese patients, however, know what they l are taking and seem to like 1t, for they
 run to a doctor at the slightest symptom. | The Chinese doctor does not know Latin, 1 and therefore does not deceive his patient 1 by writing prescriptions in dead lan- i guage. Nor does the Chinese doctor ad- ] minister bread pills under a Latinized name, or sweetened water as a "com- pound" or "extract." The stuff that he | prescribes has strength and is given in
 large doses as much as the patient can
 bear. There are nine ingredients in a 1 remedy for cold. and some of these are l also said to cure other ailments. The | doses are large, and given with the view
 of being effective In case the patient has l some other complaint. also Thus, the
 doctor kills two complaints with one dose, | unless he kills the patient. The theory
 Is that by pouring in all kinds of medi- | cines at the same time the channels in
 the system will conduct them to different parts of the body, and thus hit the right | spot.
