the Cabinets of the countries concerned are concerting for a common intervention. According to the Blas Book just issued, the Chinese Minister in England Informed Lord Salisbury that the disturbances were due to the Secret Societies which are constantly agitating against Government rather than against foreigners, but the note this year have been more extensive than for many years past. The Minister com- plained of the pressure for redress put upon his Government by Sir John Waltham, the British" Minister at Peking, and declared that further executions would only increase the excitement.
CALCUTTA, August 5th.

It has oozed out that, if the sentence of death on the Sepaputi be confirmed, the Government will probably not annex Manipur, but will do so If it be determined to show lealency to the con-

"Samuel, Isn't it time for Maggle to get mar ried? How long is this engagement to keep dragging on ?"
Mr. Brown was comfortably in bed, reading, Ostensibly and outwardly, the Christian news- paper. In reality, a most fascinating account of a wonderful cure by Mother Selgel's Syrup, of symptoms almost identical with his own. Very provokingto be interrupted.
"Eh, my dear, what did you say. Yes, certainly,""
*I was speaking of Maggie," returned Mrs. Brown severely. "What are you reading,

She bad finished arranging her hair for the night in a series of wonderful little plaits, and came to look over her husband's shoulder,
"Oh nothing!" he said, hastily shutting up the paper,
"I was half dozing. What did you For Dr. Mackenzie, after having experimented on an entre luckless village, and finding it equally useless for cholers, small-pox and ophthalmia, had pronounced against Mother Selgel. So it was dangerous treason to hanker after this forbidden frust.
"I was speaklog about Maggie," said Mrs. Brown reprovingly. "She is your daughter, not mine, thank goodness 1 And I cannot undertake the responsibility of her any longer.
What has she been doing now?" asked Mr. Brown, composing himself to slumber in a listening attitude. For as a genmal zule Mrs. Brown's complaints of Maggie's ways and "tone of mind "listed into the small hours, and only required his bodily presence, not his listening powers.
But to-day sleep was not to be suffered to visit his eyelids so early,
She behaving in a taost improper way, Samuel, I don't like to tell you all I think about her. Didn't you notice anything this evening at supper? Dr. Mackenzie wouldn't speak to her ! He is as disgusted with her as I am"
Mr. Brown bad noticed nothing; but now be seemed to recall an awful stillness that had brooded over the supper table, Yes, now he realized that Maggies eyes had been red, and that she had once looked up at him wistfully, in the old way be remembered her mother had done, long, long ago, when
Mrs. Brown was in the middle of her story by now. Maggie's crime did not appear a great one in her father's eyes, which were softened by these old recollections.

THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH, SATURDAY, AUGUST 22, 1891.
And, by dint of putting away thoughts of the home disagreeables, he was in the blandest of tempers by the time he reached the ancient hong presided over by Mr. King.
His patient was, after all, not so very ill. A good many years in the Far East bad made Gregory exceedingly careful of himself. Quite justifiably 10, as very few of those who had come out with kim, somewhere in the Sixties, had survived the whiskies-and-sodas, the D.7, the cholera, and the malarial fevers which beset the path of the dweller in foreign land. And so, after Dr., Mackenzie bad dified himself that Gregory's temperature scarcely touched 100°, and that he had only to stay indoors and pllo lo quiuino, the doctor felt so genially Inclined that he dropped into Gregory's proffered armchair, and began to talk.
The wedding day is fixed," he said, plunglag, according to his wont, headlong into the subject that was uppermost in his mind.
"Wedding day? Whose wedding day?" asked Gregory. For, though he guessed the answer perfectly, the announcement was somewhat of a shock to him.
"Miss Brown's," answered Dr. Mackensie, abruptly. He had just realised that, after all, It was this very man to whom he was speaking who had been the cause of this determination on the part of Maggie's parents.
"Very sudden, is it not?" said Gregory. "May I ask, without any impertinence, If that little scene yesterday had anything to do with this
While he was saying these words, Gregory was deliberating in his mind whether it would not be wisest to make a clean breast, dr. give his own version, of his share in that scene to Dr. Mackenzie. He was rather inclining towards this step when the doctor turned on him with an excited gleam in his bright black eyes,
"Yes, Mr. King, emphatically yes. The poor young girl is in need of a guide and protector, a better guide and protector than Providence has there been pleased to grant her. And as the has chosen our young friend, or rather, aur young friend and convert has chosen her, who am I to keep them asunder?"

Gregory King stared for a moment at is companion in genulae open-mouthed amazement. Tree, he had formerly heard rumours of the instability of the doctor's headpiece. True, he' had heard of deeds which no sell-seeking, or sane, man could have done. Bat never before The had he heard from the doctor's own lips what seemed to him such evidence of the weakness of his intellect, Clearly this was not a man to confide in, at this time at any rate.
The certainty that the doctor was, for the time belag, not wholly responsible for his words imparted a peculiar ring of superiority to G- gory's voice as he answered
And do you then Imagine Peter Wong, s Chinaman, will be a guide and protector to a girl like Maggle Brown? She requires-some ont like here he hesitated for a moment, then abruptly brought out "Some one like yoursell." It was a sudden faspiration on Gregory's party to say this. He had. not meant to do so when he began his sentence, he did not mean it now. But, was It possible? No, it could not have been blush, that reddened Dr. Mackenzie's excited face. It was only the fire suddenly breaking out into flame, and lighting up the long grey beard and wild unkempt hair.
"Good evening, Mr. King, I will call and see you to-morrow. But I doubt not you will be much better by then,” -
"By Jove! mused Gregory, as he drew his chair close to the fire, and ill-temperedly pushed awaythevery grimy cat which generally occupied the centre place on the heartbrug. "It is possible he is in love with her himself? Ridiculous ("
And then he fell a-thinking.
There was going to be a wedding. But what a wedding! He could imagine the small and stuffy chapel crowded with greasy, familla, pushing Chinese, friends and relations of Wong, who as converts would consider they had a right to shake hands with you, criticize the bride, or even-kiss ber after the ceremony.
No, luckily Chinese custom forbade that. But that creature Wong was such a fool, he would nat know how to keep his fellow countrymen at * proper distance. Most likely, he wouldn't want to do so. In all probability he thought 4 even Dr. Mackenzle had put , that he wu choosing her.. Choosing a genuine English girl
"Dinner ready.
The dinner was a vile one, badly cooked and served. Mr. King made a meal off bread and butter and whisky and hot water. The drink would have been much nicer If it had had a dash of lemon and sugar. But there were no lemons in the house. Who ever knew a bachelor's bouse where there were ?
Close to the fire again, Gregory King mused
on at his ease.
What had made Maggie behave as she bad done yesterday ?
The answer was plaio, to a man with Gregory's experience of women.
She was in love with him! Not to be wor- dered at, of course, considering whet a very fascinating man he was. Poor Maggie! Every thing he remembered about her conduct of late confirmed him in this opinion. She changed colour when he came into a room. Surely she had taken greater pains with her dress lately her skirts had hung straighter-

Were man a mere animal, he could probably lead a very healthy and hearty Ilfe upon raw meat and fish, fruits, nuts and berries. Frequent ly he tries the same diet under the pretext of health-reform, but always comes to griel. Man civilized requires a varied regimen. He needs cooked food, and. what is too often neglected by well-meaning and otherwise intelligent persons, he requires the additional element of something which appeals to the palate on the one hand and facilitates digestion on the other. Only a high civilization produces a genuine sauce. To find the oldest sauces we need take only the oldent civilizations. Curry represents the Sanskrit, Soy the Chinese, Chuiney the Sinhalese or the Fer sian, and Tabasco the Aztec. Nature seems to give us a bist at the origin of the use of these con diments. They grow in tropical or semitropical lands, seldom in temperate climes; the hotter the land, the more pungent and aromatie, the spice. Black pepper from the Celebes and the mall Chill from equatorial South America are types in this regard. The reason is self-apparent. In the north man eats to keep warm in the tropics no such necessity prevails. The blubber of the Erquimo, the tallow and train-oll of the Finn and Samoyed are fuel whose chief function is to heat the body. As you go southward the foods lose this quality by degrees and begin to show other altributes. Pork and fat beef, yellow corn and oatmeal become the staples. Then come the lands of the cereals and the heavy esculents. Last are the tropics, where fish, bird and beast are thin and where the fruits and vegetables are light and aqueous. At one extreme the principal purpose of foodle sustaining animal warmth; locomotion, repair and relaxatlon are bat secondary. At the other it is the very reverse. At one end life is one long struggle fer sustenance; at the other nature supplies every want. On the other hand, the heat of the tropics produces lassitude and loss of appetite. Unless something inter vened the human being would degenerate. Here nature steps in and to a varied food-supply adds any number of delicious and appetizing flowers, fruits, berries, leaves, barks and roots. The tropical men must have noticed this at a very early period and utilized it for both his pleasure and benefit. The Hakkas and Sanfats of Formosa, two savage tribes, use the soy-bean, the bay-leaf and the clonamon bark in their cooking; the Malays the pepper, pumelo-lead and allspice; the Kiche Indians, of Central America, the chill; and the Creeks and Seminoles the sassafras and wintergreen, which survive to-day in the famous gumbo file of New Orleans, The development of civilization in these lands has increased the use. Stay was it possible that it was his own of what may well be called food-accessories, artistic eye that was at fault, that he was getting and has also increased their variety and accustomed to crooked lines and irregular dii-excellence. In India there are tances? Horrible thought! But no, ten ther one hundred recognized kinds of curry; in more than sand times no!
