THB QTJEEIl THIWOS THAI ABB KATEIT BI CHISAMEjr. rhlloopliT of the Stomach In th Crloattal KlnalnmCrpiilcnre I'onaidrred Murk l Intellect nnl Niiprriorlty. To be ftblo to eat well means, in the Chinaman's opinion, to be happy, says n lVkin correspondent. All his cares, troubles and desires center in the same point, namely, good eating. True, everybody the world overtakes care to satisfy his appetite in the best possible way. Hut ..lie Chinese differ from ot her people, in the philosophy of the subject. They hold that only the Batiatcd man can bo wise, and those who cannot make themselves full are surely fool. Their most sacred philo sophical and medical treatises deal with the stomach as the principal source of the spiritual, moral and phys ical life of man. The head, in their opinion, is a poor dependent on the bounty of the stomach. Not the head, but the stomach, ought to be crowned. They hold as a cardinal axiom that the stomach 1j thespring of every th night, feeling and muscular action, lie who does not cat loses nil energy. Man differs from wood and ftone only be cause ho fills up his stomach. They look upon Dr. Tanner's forty days' 'fast as a clever trick. They assert that the American doctor deceived the public by drinking some colorless nu tritious substances dissolved in water. Otherwise, they argue, he would neces sarily turn first an idiot, and then a corpse. "When we ponder on some difficult subject we often touch or rub.our fore head. Under the same circumstances the Chinaman puts his fingers below his belt By touching his abdomen he facilitates his mental process. In view of the supremacy of the stomach the Chinese came to the conclusion that the better it is filled the wiser is its possessor; hence fatness and cor pulence are the best mirror of the mind, the best indication of superior intellect. And, as wisdom brings man to a blissful state and to a heavenly beatitude, therefore the Chinamen re gard extraordinary stoutness as a sym bol of the future heavenly state. The idol of Buddha-Shahemuny, the ideal of supreme beatitude, is represented as au abnormally fat man, with a smile of perfect satisfaction. There is no need to put any sign under that idol, for without words everybody would read in its looks that " I am quite fulL" The superior spiritu.il advisers of the Buddhists are dis tinguished for their corpulence. I am told there are divines among them who devour a whole sheep for break fast. Now, what are the agencies which bring the -Chinaman to his blissful state? They are manifold; yet beef, milk and dairy products in general are strictly excluded from the list About twenty centuries ago in the Celestial empire there was established ox worship, as a reward for the greit assistance in agriculture rendered by that horned animal. Then it was ior biddo.i to kill either ox or cow. It became also a sacred habit to leave the cow's milk exclusively for the calves, to whom it rightfully belonged. China men do not use the milk of sheep or she goats, though they are very fond of the meat of these animals. Excluding beef and dairy products, Chinamen eat everything that is edible, ho:se and ass flesh, snakes, rats, mice, dogs, grasshoppers, spiders, worms, cocoons, sea-cucumbers, swallow's nests, and so on. Onco, while living in a villa near 3'ekin, I saw a very strange scene. There appeared a cloud of grasshoppers. - Suddenly the field was covered with .Ch'nann n -who ran frantically hither an I thither.gathering them in. They filled large sacks and bags with tha insects. They carried portable stoves on which they roasted their curious game. Other Chinamen greedily devoured the grasshoppers, paying a penny for ten. At the head of all meats Chinamen put, of course, pork. In their pinion, to the hog belongs tho first place in the list of domestic animals. If you ask a ( hinainan why, he will answer you: "Because it was the hog from whom the Chinamen descended;" Don't you see, the Celestial! have beaten Darwin on the theory of the descent of man. It is only natural, then, that among Chinamen hojrs should njoy full rights of citizenship. Like dogs, they wander wherever they please. A Chinese street without a number of hogs is an impossibility. Are there many hogs in China? I should think so. On a s'ngle holiday in memory of their ancestors not the original ances tors, the hogs, but merely human an cestorsthe Celestials eat fully 030,000 hogs. Poor Chinamen who cannot af ford to buy pork iat meat of dog, as.-es, horses, rats, mice, rabbits, hares goats and sheep. But I never saw them eating cats. Of the birds the Chineso eat silver pheasants, ducks, gee-e, chickens, ja kdaws, crows and many others. Curiously enough, the so-called Cochin China fowls are very rarely seen here. Salt eggs are in great use here. Among the choice delicacies of the Chinese must be mentioned the fin of sharks and the nests of sea swal lows. Under the latter is understood not the whole nest, but only the mucil aginous inner coat ng of the nests. It is believed that the swallows who build their nests on the sea rocks cover their nests and glue them to the rocks, with the juice of s a cane, which, on being dried, look like mucilaginous membrane. On the market these nests are found in the shape of a hemisphere of the size of a half orange peel. The nests are sold hero at from fifteen to to twenty-live dollars per pound. They are u-ed principally for ina';ing broth, to which they give a peculiar aroma and taste, much valued by gas tronomers. IMcu stands, of course, at the head of vegetable foods. Without rice grutJ no meat is eerved here. fan " means both "to have a meal " and "to eat rice gruel." The brown rice, which ia common rice, but heated and musty, Is much liked. There is also a red va riety of rice. Honey is much used here, but chiefly as a cosmetic After being mixed with flour it is used by the women ia their hair-dressing. AVith their hair saturated, sticky and shining with honey, they must bo indoed sweet. As everybody knows, the Chinese aro passionately fond of tea, which they cultivalo for the rest of the world. They drink it nt every meal, at homo and out, when idle and at work, In shops and nt olllccs in short. everywhere, and at any time of day or night. The red, black and gre.n sorts of tea they prepare only for export while they themselves use exclusively yellow tea. They take tea in small cups and without sugar. Though in China theroare cxceilont sorts of grapes, yet no wine is prepared there. The Chinese make two kinds of whisky, of sargo and of rice, and drink a good deal ot it V omen also smeke ami drink hero. A tin gill of the shape of an hour glass is used for jwhisky drinking. They had no glassworks here until recently, when an American g ntleman taught some Celestials to make glass. During my thirty Years' residence here 1 have never seen a single drunken Chinaman on tho street No colfee or chocolate is used here. Boyhood's Joys and Troublo-. When you see a boy going along in the merry, niciry sunshine, with his hat in his hand, slinking his hair with a pine stick to g t it dry, now and then leaning his head to one side, pounding the other side with his hand, and practically kicking his feet in the air in desperate efforts to get the water out of his ears; o." whenjou see him holding a warm stone to his ear for tho same purpose, it is a true sign that you may think of that boy, by-and-bye, stan ling speechless when his mother asks him how his shirt came to be wrong side out. You must not run down the street in the direction of his home under tho impression that the boy is being basely murdered. You can't kill a boy with a skate-strap. And in hoc signoe3 you will know that boy has been in swimming when he should have been at school learning that "twenty six prepositions are fol lowed by tho accusative," all tho way from ad to ultra When you see a boy, about 5:45 r. m., with ink on his nose and the grime of chalk on his hand, his hair elishev eleil and the two upper buttons of his jacket gone, his collar rumpled and his necktie twisted awry, and a suspicious looking flush and two or three scratches adorning his face, ycu will know that he was "kept in" after school, and was ta tinted for the same by another boy when he came out, and if you want to know the rest of it, it will not be necessary to go into partic ulars, but just ask him ' which whipped?" If a joyous look cf triumph dances in the e xultnnt eyes, you will know that just around the corner you can find a boy with a bleeding nose, and a generally demoralized facade. But if the lad you question looks downcast, multis cdm lachrymis begins his ora tion, like Divatiacus, by saying: "Well, he was a great deal 1 igger n me," you may know that your boy got "licked." When you see a boy with the pockets of his pantaloons bulging out until he J looks like a great bumble-bee laden for j the hive, while he walks al ng trying I to look as thin as split lath, and wear ! ing a profound expression of super natural innocence, you know, without referring to this code of signals, that boy has been lingering in somebody's orchard, and doesn't care to have un due publicity given to facts that only concern him personally. When you see a boy on the distant hillside, suddenly leap up into the soft sumnier air. holding one bareio it ten derly, but firmly, in the wedded lingers of both hands, while he hops around in irregular but excited orbits, at tho same time voicing his grief with wailing shrieks, mellowed by the sunny distance, then, without going to tho telephone, you may know that birefoot boy has trod upon the busy bee that nestled in the perfumed clover. And wherever and whenever you Fee him, in mischief or out of it that is, just coming out of it, or just ready to get into so ne more; awfully Lad, or with many tearful failures and dis graceful stumbles trying to be good; I lorgetting your commandments which i thunder upon him by the hundred, I well nigh as readilv and repeatedly as j you forget tho ten that iulinite wis dom has laid upon you ; in all his ! noise, his poor little struggles, tempta- tions, triumphs and failures, hi3 pitiful little trouble and his tearful, honest : penitence, in a'l the lightness of a ' boy's life, your heart must grow mel j low and tender for the little germ of j manhood, so full of wonderful possi bilities, so rich with seeels of strength I that will ripen by and by, for geod or I for evil, as you walk and live before I the boy; ever as you look at him, re j member what you were thirtv er forty j years ago, and say, "God b'.ess the ! boy." JJurlinjtoii Jlawktye, A Rare Bird. A specimen of the "monkey-faced owl," a rare bird, was recently cap tured by C.tptain l'itts, of Orlando, 11a., in the Everglades. It is de scribed as being somewhat smaller than the hooting owl. The plumage has tho soft, furry texture of the owl family, but a tinge of eirange enters into the color. Tho head and face are those of a baboon, the face being white, while the e-yes ara much smaller than those of an owl of tho same size, coal-black, and soiiio'vhat almond shaped, opening and closing with lids like those i f an animah In fact they more n arly resemble t,he eyes of an otter than a bird. HEALTH lUSrs. It is said that inhnling the fumes of sulphur will cure catarrh. Cotton wool wet with sweet or. and laudanum relioves the earache very soon. To prevent the skin from discolor ing after a blow or fall, take a littlo dry starch or arrowroot nnd merely moisten it with cold water and lay it on the injured part. This must be done immediately, so as to prevent tho action of tho air upon tho skin.

The copperhead snake is found in great quantities in Virginia, from the Potomac and the bay to the Blue llidge, but more especially in the coun try between tho Rappahannock anell the Potomac clear to the ridge. Vir ginia is famous lor snakes, of which the deally rattlesnake and tho copper heal are tho most noted. The rattle snake give warning of its intention to fight the copperhead bites without" warning. It is a mean snake, and is very veuomous. It is a mistake, how ever, to supposo that its bite is prima rily fatal to human life. The usual effects on the human system are tho swelling of tho part of limb bitten, great nervous prostration nnd tho ap pearance of suppurating abscesses. There is generally not much acute pain, but a great deal of dull, excru ciating ache. Thecopperhea I's bite is not fatal to human beings unless they are very young children and very deli cate, sickly adults. Even then a fatal termination can hardly be credited to the primary effects of tho bite. The constitutional effects of tho bite, how ever, are exceedingly painful, difficult to cure, an Vmanilest the power of the virus by perio lically appearing every yea". Whisky is not an antidote to the coppcrhea l's bite, although it is of the rattlesnake's. Degs bitten by the copperhead inva riably die in terrible agony, and within a short time. Horses bitten by this snake often die, and if t'.ey recover arj seldom eif any value afterward. The poison of the copperhead enters the circulation anel corrupts t-ie blood, and a long course of mo ical treatment, generally heroic in character, is neces sary to eradicato tho effect) of the venom from the system. The hog is reported to be innocuous to tho bite of the copperheal, but eloesn't hanker after him as ho does after the rattle-snake. The groat enoiry of the copperhea l is the blacksnake, with whom the fields and wood of Virginia fairly swarm. Ho will fight the blacksnake, as he will fight any thing from a pickaninny to a wood chuck, but he enters the contest with the assured conviction that he hasn t any show whatever. Washington Jie vuLlican. The Victim of an Octopus. The following account of an attack by a cuttlefish on a boy is given by the Iliogo Xewi: It is not strange that cuttlefish should damage vege tables growing in fields by the sea shore, but the surprising news reaches us that a boy has been killed by one of these hideous creatures. We hear that some few days ago a boy about fourteen years of age was fishing at Tomiokamura, Amakusa, Ilizen, anel a huge cuttlefish stretched two of its tentacles out of tho water and grasped the boy's right arm. The boy shouted for assistance, and some men who were near released the lad by cutting the tentacles. When the boy reached home his arm was cold and mctionless, and, notwithstanding medical aid was called in, he died five days afterward. Advance Step In Dentislry.

J Point the First. Brown's Iron Bitters is not an intoxicating com pound. It is a tonic medicine, not a drink. It is a skillfully compounded preparation made to restore strength and health; not a beverage to be sold in bar-rooms and taverns. Point the Second. Brown's Iron Bitters is free from everything injurious. The most delicate ladies and the most enfeebled infants may use it with perfect safety and with great advantage. While it is powerful in its remedial agency, it is gentle in its operation, restoring wasted strength and imparting robust health in the most efficient manner. . Point the Third. Brown's Iron Bitters is made by the Brown Chemical Company of Baltimore, a long-established house, whose reputa tion is well-known to the business world and thj general community. There is no risk in buying such a medicine, - t A Dangerous Case. Pwnr.-ritn. Jiik 1, 1W9.
