MINISTERS MEN OF MEDICINE
Both in England and America Clergy
man Acted as Doctor in the
Seventeenth Century.

Some of the medicines dispensed in
the Seventeenth century were fear
full and wonderful connections. Human
skulls, bones, human fat, mummies.
etc, were freely prescribed. At the
deathbed of Charles II u preparation
from human skull was administered.
The education of the pharmacist at
this time was largely based on his
trade experience, although some knowl-
edge of Latin was required. The ap-
premiership lasted from five 10 six
years, and at the end of that time he
became "journeyman." On assuming
control of pharmacy as a proprietor,
he was required to pass a supplement
tary examination.
Pharmacy in America during the Sew.
enteenth century was largely based on
English usages modified by practices
derived from the Indians. In Massa-
chusetts, great many clergymen prac'
ticed pharmacy for means of liveli-
hood, while preaching. Indians and
old women also practiced it. The
witchcraft epidemic brought the prac.
titioners Of pharmacy into suspicion
as selling poisons for spells.

Mountain Cloud at Dawn" is the

contest. In the days of the Kyoto
court, only court mobiles and poets
participated. but now anyone can con-
tribute. The best poems are read to
the emperor. Verse making has al
ways been one of the national pas
times of the Japanese people. EN-
peror Meiji used to compose poem
every day. and his consort also left
