CHINESE THERAPEUTICS.

The following typical bits of natire thora- peutic lore were quoted by a lady doctor at Soochow recently.

This was the favourite pro- scription of the great celebrity, Mo Bet-ze, who was at one time physician to the Emperor, and who lately died at his home in Sooohow. An- other popular remedy is to remove the entraila of a fish, fill the abdominal cavity with arsenical neid, king in a cool place, and wait for the ins to turn white; then scrape from the fins the small white excrescence, dry, pulverise, mix with aromatic powder, make a paste, and apply to tooth. This ensures a painless ami speedy delivery of the tooth.

How to diagnose anthrax: Have your patient eat a raw yellow bean; if the disease is anthrax it will tasto us if well cooked; if it is not anthrax, the taste will be that of the raw yellow bean.

Cholera: Over the umbilicus place a plash composed of musk, brimstono, rod iodido of meronry, pulverised liulipodis, the secretia from the skin of a toad's head, dried rhinocorug' stomach, heated, dried, and pulverised. Another remedy is the clowing up of cash, of which you hare all heard, and which I have seen.
