MEDICAL ETHICS.

Doctors Object to Pay for Advertising, but Are Always Ready for Free Puffs. A Chicago medical society recently amputated a member. It was a very good member they cut off, and wad not diseased at all. In fact, the member that was cut off was the only sound, healthy member that the medical society could boast of. But, dropping all nonsense, a medical association expelled one of its members. They expelled him, not because he had prescribed arsenic instead pf quinine, or because he had committed some pf his. homicides while in an intoxicated condition. Nobody ever heard of a medical society amputating a member for any such triviality as that. i Now for what does the reader suppose those sawbones cut off the offending member? For nothing ih the world except that he had put his business card in a newspaper and paid for it. It is contrary to medical ethics for a Chicago doctor to advertise in a newspaper, Why there should be any more objection to a doctor putting his card in a newspaper than there is in tacking his professional shingle on his office door, is more than we can comprehend without some operation having been previously performed on our jounialistic brain. We utterly fail to discover why it is more unprofessional in a doctor to advertise in a newspaper than it is for a lawyer or a banker to do so. This is a peculiarly singular feature of medical ethics, when it is taken into consideration that otherwise there is no profession fonder of newspaper notoriety. If a son of zEsculapius does some fine work in repairing a rickety liver, or putting in order some other part of the human anatomy that has become unhinged, we have never perceived any wild, frenzied opposition on the part of the doctor to having the fact mentioned in flattering terms in the local paper. There is nothing in that that interferes with the therapeutic, chirurgical, sanitary, analeptic, prophylactic, or any other kind' of medical ethics. Again, it will be remembered that every once in a while the doctors hold a kind of ecumenical council. We have never observed any attempt to prevent the press from publishing the sickening details. Usually ,one of the doctors is delivered of a long, salutiferous, balsamic kind of a pastoral address, full of Latin names and less intelligible English, about materia medica, or dietetics, of pharmacology, after which his one object in life seems to be to inflict it, as a kind of mental porous plaster, on the reading public, through the medium of • the local press. There seems to be nothing in medical ethics against running an entire issue of a newspaper with that kind of a free cyclopean advertisement of personal and professional egotism; ye t t when any other doctor puts in* a two-inch ad, that he is authorized by law to take human life, the entire medical profession sits up on its hinds legs and howls about ethics, which goes to show that the medical profession 4s as badly afflicted with humbuggery as is theology.— Texas Siftings.

Ages of Chinese Porcelains.

Although it is known that such and such colors and modes oj decoration were not in use before certain dates, it would be to little purpose to speculate on the exact age of any particular specimen of Chinese porcelain. It is safe to assert of any good piece that it is older than the present century. It may be held as certain that a rose-col-ored vase, or one' into the decoration of which that color enters, can not have been made longer ago than 1690, while a piece decorated with blue and white may be of the time of the emperor King-te, who reigned for three years, from A. D. 1004. to 1007. If a jar should be painted with personages wearing the pig-tail, it is not more than two hundred and fifty years old, that appendage having been introduced by the Tartar conquerors; but if the personages Represented wear long robes, both men and women, and if the males wear square black head-gear, then it may be of very high antiquity. The Chinese, however, have at all times delighted in reproducing the best effects of former periods, and have, as a matter of course, and without dishonest intent, copied marks, dates, handling, and everything. Chinese collectors have been in the habit of paying as much for a good copy as for an authenticated original. A European or American collector must therefore be content to do as they do, and class a piece, not as having been made under such or such an emperor or dynasty, though the inscription may state as much, but as being such a style. Still, taken in this way, a collection may be made a fairly complete and very interesting index to the history of the art and of the peculiar civilization of the Chinese. The very oldest porcelains, it is likely, were white, either plain or ornamented with engravings in the paste, or with a relief obtained by pressing the paste into similar engravings in wood.— li. Riordan; in Harper’s Magazine.

The Orange Groves of St. Michael’s. Out in the Atlantic, over 1,200 miles frqpi Land’s End and about 600 miles due west from Lisbon, lies the beautiful island of St. Michael's, the largest of the nine islands forming the archipelago of the Azores. It is beautiful in its variety of mountain, lake, and Yalley scenery, in the rich verdure of its cultivated lands, its equable, mild climate, and its wonderful thermal spring. The principal, c ommerce of St. Michael’s is the orange crop. The mode of picking and packing remains unaltered since early days. The,city, Ponta Delgada, the capital of the island, io set in the midst of orange gardens, and the* air early mornings or late in the evenings comes laden to you with the fragrance of orange blossoms. Either in the town or suburbs you see tjie gates of many orhnge gardens invitingly open, and you will be politely invited to walk in and help yourself to flowers and fruit. If you are a stranger the “cabeca” or head man of .the garden will bring you a bunch of lovely camellias and a branch on which hang clusters of ripe oranges, and invite you to be seated on a garden bench, for though it is the month of February you can enjoy sitting out of doors.

There you can watch the juvenile toilers sorting the fruit and dried leaves of the Indian com.< The picker can eat as,many oranges as he pleases, and take away every, evening a bag or basket full of fruit that has fallen from the trees, which he sells at thirty or forty for a penny.— Leisure Hours. *

Errors in Printing.

Printers' Circular: Painstaking people, who know next to nothing about printing, find a special delight in searching out typographical errors in newspapers, periodicals, and books, the detection of a blunder, in their own estimation, putting a premium on individ A ual intelligence —conferring a privilege of disparaging printers. Men 1 of intelligence, who write well but not legibly, nefer tire of pointing out mistakes of printers and the oversight of proofreaders. The self-constituted censors of typography may find food for wholesome reflection in the fact that just about one hundred years ago a number of professors in the Edinburgh University undertook the publication of a book which shotaid be a perfect specimen of typographical accuracy. Every conceivable precaution was taken to prevent errors of the types. Six experienced proof-readers were employed, who devoted hours to the reading of each page. After their careful task was completed, each page was posted in the hall of the university, with a notification that £SO would be paid to any person who should succeed in discovering an error. Every page remained thus publicly exposed, for two weeks before being returned to the printing office. The proprietors of the work felt confident that the object so diligently striven for had been attained. Great was the discomfiture of the learned men when, on the book being issued, several errors were found, one occurring in the first line of the first page.

A High Jinks Waiter.

Scene, Ladies’ High Jinks at the Bohemian Club. Mr. and Mrs. George and Cousin Charlie. Mrs. George—Dear, I am so hungry! It makes me hollow to be intellectual. Won’t you call a waiter and ask for something ? Mr. George—My darling, that’s just what I want to do, but, hang it all, I can’t be sure which are the waiters. Mrs. George—l should think you’d been in the club long enough to know the members by this time. Mr. George—So I have, my love; but you see there are a lot of rich men who seldom come to the club save on jinks’ nights, and I don’t know all of them, even by sight. Cousin Charlie—What nonsense! Now, in my business it’s necessary to be a keep judge of character. I can tell what business a man is in the minute I look at him. See that chump over there by the wall? Now, anybody’d know that he was a waiter. Use your eyes. It’s easy enough. (Imperiously) Waiter! Come over here and wait on this lady. The supposed waiter gives a stony glare, walks over, and seats himself by the side of a wealthy society lady, with whom he immediately enters into friendly conversation. Exit Cousin Charlie.

Reported at The Day of Judgment.

St. Paul Pioneer-Press : A Presbyterian doctor of divinity once said to me at a general assembly, “You newspaper men must have queer views of things. You are always looking on and never taking part. Ykmr knowledge and habits of thought must be very circumferential and superficial. I suppose, now, your idea of the day of judgment is that you will have a table off at one side and report the proceedings for the morning paper.” . ... K.. - The following explanation of oome forms of Afghan nomenclature is of interest : “Ab” means water, as in Punjab (that is, “the five waters,” referring to the five great rivers that traverse the northwestern province of Hindostan), or as in Hurrirab (the water of the “Hurris”), or as in Surkh-ab (the “red water”), and so on. “Koh” is a mountain, as in Safeydkoh (the “white mountain”), Koh-i-Baba (the mountains of Babab or Baber), or as in Hindoo Koosh (the Hindostanee Mountain). “Abad” as a terminal (the “City of Allah”), Ahmedabad (the “City of Ahmed”), and so forth. “Safeyd" is white, “siah” black, “surkh” red, “nil” blue, etc. Then there are the numerals, such as “panj” or “punj” (five), “char” or“chahar” (four), etc., all of which are descriptive Of certain characteristics of the places to the names of which they are attached. “Panjdeh” is an example, for as “deh” means village, and “panj” five, as already explained, the name of the place signifies a collection of five Turcoman villages. Wherever “kotul” occurs it signifies simply a pass over a mountain spur. For instance, the first victory Gen. Roberts won in Afghanistan was at the Paiwar Kotul, the Pass of the Paiwar, 9,000 feethigh.

The Man with a Hose.

An ignorant, stupid man with a hose in his hand is the pest of the city. Besides flooding the sidewalks and making a mudhole of the nice dry gutters, he makes the stone pavements sink by undermining them, he washes the mortar out of the stone steps, and is an equivalent to six months of perpetual rainstorm. The artificial storm added to the six montlis of winter makes the rock and brick of most cities have a hard time of it. The rain-fall of the United States is about thirty inches a year; in the zone of the hired man it is not less than thirty feet. Under his care the pyramids of Egypt would last only a few summer-times. Chicago Current. • One of the saddest and most touching sights in li£e is that of a young man who has spent six months in coaxing and waxing a mustache into respectable size and shape, and then, in the .act of lighting a cigar with a slip of paper, burns and scorches the whole institution into an unrecognizable mass of singed hair. . A New Yobe paper mentions the fact that a lady once received a declaration of love on her eightieth birthday.’ Never despair, girls. While there’s life there’s hope.

The Bread of Persia.

“Persian bread,” writes our correspondent now in Afghanistan, “is a very peculiar production; it is made in large flaps, in some cases about a yard long. If ever the Persians reach the advanced state of morning newspapers they might have them printed on their bread, so that they could read the news while they eat, and swallow everything literally. On seeihg these large flaps I have often thought that they must resemble the blacksmith’s leather apron, which was the old standard of Persia; if the bread is not made after that model they have managed to produce an article very like it, not only in size but in color and toughness at the same time. We have had now nearly two months’ experience of this material, and it was a delight on coming here tp get at our breakfast the first morning bread that was made on a somewhat later model than an old leather apron. The chances of finding a change in this detail of our daily life on reaching the Indian camp had often been discussed on the way, when we were hard at work trying to masticate pieces of the leather kind. One of our party Said he knew Major Bind, the commissariat officer of the other camp, and that he was not a man likely to Come away without the. means of baking good bread, but we had been so long used to that Persian kind that these assurances did not in - spire much hope. There had been doubts, but these were dispelled at our first breakfast. Butter actually appeared on the table with the bread. I fear for the moment we either forgot or thought lightly of the splendid pillaus in the breakfast prepared for us by the Governor of Khorassan’s cook at Meshed, or the many delicacies Ali Mardan treated us with at Sarakhs. One man while munching a great mouthful of bread and butter—the amount in his mouth slightly interfered with his articulation—but we made out that he meant to say it was almost as good as arriving at Dover. Of course he meant to add that it was after having been a long time in the East away from England, but at that instant he had not a moment to spare, and left the sentence in its incomplete form as he re recorded.”— London Daily News.

The Preventive of a Terrible Disease. No disorders, excepting the most deadly forms of lung disease, involve euch a tremendous destruction of organic tissue as those which fasten upon the kidneys. Such maladies, when they become chronic—and none are so liable to assume that phase—completely wreck the system. To prevent this terrible disease, recourse should be had, upon the first manifestation Of trouble, to Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, which expedience has proved to be highly effective as a means of imparting tone and regularity to the organs of urination, as well as to the liver, stomach, and bowels. Another beneficial result of this medicine, naturally consequent upon its diuretic action, is the elimination froih the blood of impurities which beget rheumatism, neuralgia, gout, dropsy, and other maladies. By increasing the activity of the kidneys, it augments the depurative efficiency of these organs, which are most important outlets for the escape of such impurities.

The Grade of Crimes.

An exchange than classifies crimes of peculation: Taking $1,000,000 is called a case of genius. Taking SIOO,OOO is called a case of shortage. . Taking $50,000 is called a case of litigation. Taking $25,000 is called a case of insolvency. Taking SIO,OOO is called a case of irregularity. Taking $5,000 is called a case of defalcation. Taking SI,OOO is called a case of corruption. Taking SSOO is called a case of em- ~ bezzlement. Taking SIOO is called a case of dishonesty. Taking SSO is called a case of thievery. Taking $25 is called a case of total depravity. Taking one ham is called a case of war on society.

Etruscan False Teeth.

There is nothing new under the sun, repeats the Pall Mall Gazette, and not even the modern inventor of artificial teeth can lay claim to the honor of having been the first to supply gaptoothed humanity with the subtlest of mastication knives. This has recently been proved by Italian antiquarians, who have discovered false teeth in a skull which has been excavated in an ancient Etruscan cemetery with many other curiosities at present safely stowed away at the Museum of Antiquities at Corneto, in Tuscany. The sepulcher out of which the skull was taken dates, according to experts, from the fifth or sixth century, B. C., and the false teeth are nothing but animal teeth attached to the human teeth by means of small gold plates. There is said to be one lawyer in heaven. How he got there is not positively known, but it is conjectured that Irepassed himself off for an editor and slipped in unsuspected? When his dodge was ’ discovered they searched the realms of felicity in all their length and breadth for another lawyer to draw up the papers for his ejectment, but they couldn’t find one, and of course he held the fort. What’s the world coming to? Several of our most respected men and women have lately taken the habit of posing in almost any position for the astonished gaze of a crowd of spectators. “At the rink.” ?

$500 Not Called For.

It seems strange that it is necessary to persuade men that you can cure their diseases by odering a premium to the nwn who fails to receive benefit. And yet Dr. Sage undoubtedly cured thousands of cases of obstinate catarrh with bis “Catarrh Remedy,” who would never have applied to him, if it had not been for his oiler of the above sum for an incurable case. Who is the next bidder for cure or cash?

“Eternal Vigilance Is the Price of Safety.” In an exchange we read that' it is entirely a gratifying thing to lazy, irresponsible people to find that health, and the best conditions for living useful and reasbnably happy lives, are within their own power, and that they are responsible for their fulfillment. It is so much easier to keep on in the old way, to pile up refuse, to let the drainage go, to build a house like a soap box, and transfer the consequences to the shoulders of. Providence or the Almighty. But it is too late, to do this now. Providence has been made responsible for the results of our shortcomings long enough; science has discovered that they are within our control, and tha£ it is our business first to discover whttf the laws • are that goverp health and disease, and then adapt ourselves and our circumstances to the obligation they impose.— Dr. Foottfs Health Monthly.

When we gaze upon some of the, peculiar freaks Dame Nature occasionally Indulges in, our minds revert back to the creation of man, “who is so fearfully and wonderfully made.’’ The mysteries of his nature have been unraveled by Dr. K.

SELF-PRESERVATION THE FIRST LAW OF NATURE. In these degenerate days when eunni or & morbid craving for excitement alternately depresses or enlivens the animal pulse of unfortunate humanity, a word, a blow, a pistol shot, too often ends the chapter of life and darkens with gloom and sorrowing regret a murderer’s future. Truly “self-preserva-tion is the first law of nature, ” but this in its fullest and grandest sense should include a preservation of one’s equanimity of temper, a preservation of a happy consciousness of living and doing rightly, a preservation of that disposition which shows a regard for the lives and feelings of others, all of which makes life endurable to our associates and enjoyable to ourselves. Again, a knowledge of that which promotes and that which impairs the harmonious action of naturaj bodily functions is essential to the best preservation of all there is in life worth living. To this end a judicious selection of remedial agents should unerringly be made when the wheels of perfect health begin to run slow, when the stomach grows weak, when the liver feels sore, when the kidneys give pain, when natural functions cause distress, and gloomy forebodings become constant companions. The __ wisest selection of a medicine for counteracting such evidences of ill health and restoring robust strength to all parts of the bod. is DE. GUYSOTTB YELLOW DOCK AND SABSAPAEILLA. Remember this, and do not let your druggists sell you in its place anything of a different name, for the writer, who was himself an invalid for years, knows this remedy to excel as a health restorative all other preparations.

Narrow Escape. • * • Rochester, June 1, inn. Ten i Years ago I was attacked with the mort > ’ Intense and deathly pains in my back and , —Kidneys. i ‘ J "Extending to the end of my toes and to my brain! “Which made me delirious! “From agony !!!! 1 “It took three men to hold me on my bed at times! “ The Doctors tried in vain to relieve me, but to no purpose. , ’ , Morphine and otherapiates ! “Had no effect! .-“-I—“After two months I was given up to .die !!! ! “ When my wife heard a neighbor tell what Hop Bitter* had done for her, she at once got and gave mo some. The first dose eased my biain and seemed to go hunting through my system for the pain. The second dose eased mb so much that I slept two hours; something I had not done for two months. Before I had used five bottles, I was well and at work as hard as any man could, for over three weeks; but I worked too hard for my strength, and taking a hard cold, I was taken with the most acute and painful rheumatism all through my system that ever was known. “I called the doctors again, and after several weeks they left me a cripple on crutches for lite, as thev said. I met a friend and told him my case, and be said Hop Bitters had cured him and would cure me. I poohed at him, but he was so earnest I was induced to use them again. In less than four weeks I threw away my crutches and went to work lightly andkept on using the bitters for five weeks, until I became as well as any man living, and have been so for six years since. It has also cured my wife, who had been sjpk for years; find has kept her and my children well find healthy with .from two to three bottles per year. There is no need to be sick at all if these bitters are used. J. J. Berk. Ex-Supervisor. “That poor invalid wife, Sister,. Mother, “Or daughter!!!! “Can be made the picture of health! “with a few bottles of Hop Bitters! “ Will you let them suffer!!!!" Prosecute the Swindlers llt If when you call for Hop Bitters (see green cluster of Hops on the white label) the druggist hands out any stuff called C. D. Warner’s German Hop Bitter* or with other “Hop" name, refuse it and shun that druggist as you would a viper; and if he has taken your money tor the stuff, indict bffla for the fraud -and sue Mtn for damages for the swindle, and w» will reward vou liberal iv for the conviction.
