day. When I took my first jinriWsha

for t my own sufferings in ray sym¬
pathy fur this unhappy nation, which
as surely as the cold came endured such
mis' y from it. The coolies wear thin
blue cotton clothes nnd are always pad
din ; through the mud. The storekeep¬
ers sit out in their open booths, and the
wot; ;■ go bareheaded about the streets.
In 11 houses of the rich the still cold
behind the closed panels is often more
inti n. e than that outside in the sun¬
shine, where the air is stirring. The
schools and public buildings are equal¬
ly frigid.
“It seemed to me that the only warm
tlili’; ' in Japan were the babies, who
look 'd like bundles of gayly colored
crape, their round heads covered by
knit caps. They slumber peacefully
tucked down their mothers’ backs. The
attempt to keep warm in winter is not
entirely a ‘modern Improvement,’ though
it goes with western civilization. The
Koreans do it very thoroughly, the Chi¬
nese to a certain extent. The Japanese,
ns a race, continue to scorn It ns they
always have done, and this is merely
one of a hundred examples which prove
that the Japanese are still true to their
traditions In their dally life and os yet
little affected in the ordering of their
homes by the IdeaB adopted from the
west.”
NOVEL CURES.
Unique Method. Kinployed in Over¬
come Certain Dlneasea.
Freezing, baking, illuminating, tor
turiiiat, frightening and bruising nra
among the accepted ways of curing cer¬
tain diseases, says a writer In the Phil¬
adelphia Times. I-'or example, the bak¬
ing cure: When one has a well devel¬
oped rheumatism, lie is placed in n spe¬
cif: of stove and the crystals of uric
acid are literally melted out of his body.
Another odJ cure once tried for
rheumatism was burial In damp,
warm clay. The first rheumatic burial
took place at Menominee, Mich. The
treatment was not a success, aud this
form of cure has been given up.
The freezing cure: This was first In¬
troduced by a Swiss doctor, Paul Bttr
deyrout. He placed his patients in
sheets immersed In ice water, packing
the patient all about with crushed (ye

F. has been brought dowu by these
mer.i: to normal—98 2-5 degrees—In

Neither of these modes of treatment
actually freezes one. A physician of

Intense cold, nnd the blood in the body
lost most of its heat.
M. Figeau’s method did not meet
with success. Some of Ills patients
succumbed to the drastic measures,
aud the practice was abandoned.
i Tbe Wheel Problem.
Which, at any given moment, is mov¬
ing forward faster—the top of a coach
wheel or the bottom?
The answer to this question seems
simple enough, but probably nine per
eons out of tcu, asked at random.
would give the wrong reply. It would
appeur at first ^lght that the top and
bottom must be moving at the anme
rate—that is. the speed of the carriage.
But In a' little thought it will be die
covered that the bottom of the wheel
is in fact, by the direction of its mo¬
tion around its axis, moving backward.
In an opposite direction to that which
the carriage Is advancing and ia con¬
sequently stationary In space, while
the point on top of the wheel is mov¬
ing forward with the double velocity
of its own motion around the axis and
the speed at which the carriage moves.
u of the Sea.
Flower Garden*
The sea has its flower gardens, but
the blooms are not on plants as they
are on the laud. It Is the animals of
the sea that make the gardens, the
corals of the tropical waters particu¬
larly making a display of floral beauty
that fairly rivals the gorgeous color¬
ing and delicate grace presented by
laud flowers. Ho closely do they resem¬
ble plant blooms that It is hard to be¬
lieve that they are wholly animal in
organization. Dr. F* lack ford says that
among the coral gardens there arc
fishes of curious forms and flashing
colors darting about, Just as the bird*
find butterflies dart about plant f»p

who is about twelve years old, takes it also whenever he is not t v -Unp well, and it aiwavs
seems to help him, and he is improving every day. I am thank, • ’ for what it has done
for me and for mv son, and would not be without it in the house. I have also recom¬
mended it to my friends, and many of them say they could not live without it. I hope the
medicine will help others as it has helped me.
