Jovial once meant tlhe type of character supposed to belong to all persons Who were bom when the planet Jupiter, or Jove, was in the ascendent They were supposed to possess more of the cheerful elements of character than others, and hence to partake of the benign qualities attributed to the 'Father of the Gods. Presently formerly meant Instantly, Immediately, and Is used In this sense In scores of places by Shakupeare and other writers of his time. It is a curious illustration of the dilatoriness of human nature that a word which once meant instantly should come to be universally considered as meaning after a time. The shrew was originally the shrew mouse, which, when her young were helpless, would fight desperately in their defense, and so well known was the courage of this little animal, which would even go out of its way to seek an enemy at times when the nest needed protection, that the word became applied to a woman who was ever ready to seek a quarreL The expression blackguard originally Indicated the scullions, kitchen boys and pot-washers who brought up the rear when a great man’s household was moving f*»m place to place. As these persons were by no means choice in their language or elegant In their deportment, the word was soon applied to these who in speech or action resembled them. Tho word treacle has undergone an odd modification. At first It was applied to such decoctions of roots or other substance* as were deemed beneficial In medical practice; then, as these were frequently sweetened, It came to mean any sweet concoction or confection; and, lastly, as molasses was the sweetest of all, this name was exclusively applied to syrup.

In mediaeval times the hat of a ruler was regarded with peculiar rev. erence, something of the respect shown for the crown as an emblem being also entertained for the hat The story of Will lam Tell with Gesier’s cap or hat on a pole to be reverenced by the people furnishes an illustration of an incident often seen in the middle ages. In mediaeval dramas the part of the devil wfwi always played in a pointed red cap, with two side points or tassels. So much Importance was attached to this cap that, on one occasion in France, an actor refused to play, and the entertainment was postponed because hts “devil’s cap” had been stolen, and It yrqs impossible to play the part of Satan without a proper head piece. A felt hat is now made by a pneumatic process. A conical cup perforated with holes is provided; the air beneath Js exhausted, .while bv a curious

Medical Practice la Chinatown At* tended with Inconveniences. Practicing modi cine In Chinatown is not devoid of dangers. As a rule the Chinamen are healthy, amazingly so when one conoldero how they brave the cold winters in light loose garments and low shoes. When a Chinaman is taken seriously ill he prepares to die and there’s an end to it If he doesn’t die it isn’t his fault, and his friends are more than likely to look on him with suspicion as having cheated the gods by his recovery. Under no considerations would he have an American physician, but as a matter of form his relatives summon a celestial medico, who does little to influence the case for good or ill beyond making a little noise and disturbing the patient. What his medl* dues are no white man knows, and but few Chinaman outside of the profession. If the patient dies the doctor Is not btamed; if he gets well the doctor takes great credit But should any peculiar symptoms manifest themselves, then the physician is in an unpleasant position, for he is held directly responsible. A few days ago a New York Chinaman, being 111, was treated by a physician near by. lie developed chills and a violent nausea Just after the physician’s arrival. The attitude of the sick man’s relatives was such that the doctor left hastily. Three days later, while walking through the street, he bad an end-on collision with a brick. The ambulance took him to the hospital, where he was sewed up by the surgeon and Interviewed by the police.
