Did nightdresses make excellent covers for drosses hanging in the closet, The ground in which roses are planted should be fertile and well drained. Potatoes are fattening, therefore, ' they are sometimes good diet for thin persons, Pure &collo' is more desirable than ! gasoline for cleaning white kid vett. ' cies.

The beginnings of medicine in China are in the dim distance of forty-five hurillred years ago, and ite chief. medi- cal clasSic dateS from the •third fourth century: be/ore Christ. It is a book en medicine and physical science that treats of the human body, the tsvo principles "yin" and "yang," the five elements, the circulation of the five elemental vapors in the body, diseases, acu,puncture, and so on. Other books were added to this list later, @aye My' Dugald Christie in "Thirty Years in Mukden," but the theories regarding the cause and cure of disease have been stereoptyped for manycenturie' s As long Ite the five elements of which the body is composed—metal, Wood, water, fire and earth—aro in equilibrium, health is enjoyed; when they are out of peoportion disease en - hues, and the objeet of treatment le to bring them back to their normal re- lations. Medicines are claseified as - cording to the five colors and the five Lasts, corresponding to the live ele- ments and the fire organs of the body. All treatment must accord with the various cycles of five, of which the following are a few:, Elements—metal, wood, water, fire earth, yeiCieoslvo,rs—white, green, black, red, Tastes—acrid, sour, salt, bitter sweet. Oegans of body—lungs, liver, kid- neys, heart, spleen and stomach. Productions of the organs—breath, ligaments, bones, blood, meselos. Senses—nose, eyes, ears, tongue, mouth. Directions—west, emit, north, south, middle. For instance, if the heart is feeble there must be too little fire; fire is produced by wood, which eorresponds with the liver; therefore to strength- en the heart the liver insist be toned up, the medicine inuet be sour and of a greenish hue, and anything bitter must be avoided. /f, on the other hand, the lungs are affected, then earth is needed to produce the lacking metal element, the spleen and stomach must be annulated, the medicine should be yellow and sweet, and evorything I mut bo mivoided. There are many other points too in- tricate to describe in. detail. The disease is diagnosed by the pulses, of which there are also five variehes. The left indicates the con- dition of the heart, liver and kidneys; the right that of the lungs and stom- ach, and also of the "gate of life." When a patient enters the consulting room foe the first time he cloes not ex- pect to be asked questions. Silently he stretches out elle hand after the other, mci the doctor, by placing three finger.% on each pule° in turn, is ant:Moped to recognize the nature of the disease.
