UNCLAIMED LETTERS AT THE÷

FOST OFFICE Letters for the following persons

· Some little time ago we commented on the claimed at the Post Office :—- alledged aversion of mosquitos to castor oil tabel, L

Kelton, W plants. The following now appears in whegan, L.

Kuhn, F. Bombay Gazette of a recent date-Attention Ans, Deni is drawn by the New York Medical "Record |Gittian, Mrs."-- to the curious property alleged to be possessed Brokenshire, F. By the castor of plant (" Ricinus communis,") | in keeping off mosquitos, to which we referred the other day, In Upper India, where this shrub is largely grown, the villagers- have a theory that the planting of it mound their fields keeps off injurious insects fromtheiterops That it does not keep off all insects is quite certain, many caterpillars, notably the one that makes Assam silk, feeding on it freely. Such tradi- tions, however, often have more in them than, the scientist is disposed at first to believe witness the story which is vastly older in Bengal than the mosquito theory, that sleeping under a mosquito net is a protection against fever. The supposition, in this case, was that the fever germs floated about in the air and that. the mosquito net stopped them. It was not dreamt that the mosquito was the means of conveyance, and that the reason the mosquito net prevented fever was because it kept mosquitos outside, but the observed fact was nevertheless there. The castor oil story is similarly worth very careful investigation. It is to the effect that the plant is distasteful to mosquitos, that these insects will not remain either about houses where the shrubs are planted or in rooms where the cut branches, leaves and seeds have been exposed. discovery is credited to Consul Plumacher of Maracaibo, who is said to have addressed the State Department at Washington on the sub ject.

clothing, and transport. He has, like most. people, an enormous respect for the Japa nesc. le has the greatest contempt for the arrangements of the Germans. Italians, and French. On the other hand, he admires the undoubtedly fine physique and smartness of the German soldiers, who have been, especially picked for war

in China. The French have done their prestige area deal of harm by sending the pale-faced, fever- ridden weaklings from Tong King. Their tota absence of smartness, or even uniformity in dress, their slouching habits, and their lawless ness are a disgrace 10a great nation like France, He fees an absolute lack of all arrangements for the soldier's comfort in the French and Italian hies; but especially is his the case with the Russians. At the end of a long march he sees them foraging among thevillinges near picking up a fowl here and there, or even a sheep or goat, and digging up sweet potatoes, &c., to add to their meagre fare.

For himself, he sees that, on arrivelables, or Guttierez, his ration of flour, meat, and vegetables, what not, is feady for issue: that when the weather gets colder he is supplied with ample clothing for, himself and his horse; and he draws his own conclusions as to which nation he would prfer to rule over him. He sees actual cases, and bears of nuinberless others, of rage or murder in cold blood of harmless and terrifi ed coolies, by the Russian soldiery. And if there was ever, any doubt in his mind as to, whose yoke he would prefer, it is laid to rest for ever. Thus, we may fairly say that the Russian hogey on the Indian frontier has been "laid" by the Chinese War of 19öd

An amusing incident occurred at Mary lehane, when two women, bearing the same name of Charlotte Eggbeer, and described as being 40 and 27 years of age respectively, were charged with begging in Regent Street. They were said to be mother and daughter. Mr. Plowden remarked that it was surely impossible, if the, one other 27, as that meant that

That would be about it years ago, and you have a daughter 37. I don't quite see how you work it out. Have you been married before?-Prisoner: No, sir, Mr. Plowden: Was she born before marriage 7-Prisoner: No, sir-Mr. Plowden: Are you really sure she is your daughter? Prisoner: I swear she is.

This succesful and highly popular remedy, as employed in the Continental Hospitals by- Ricord, Rostan, Jobert, Velpeau, and others, combines all the desiderata to be sought in a medicine of the kind, and surpasses everything hitherto employed:

THERAPION No. in a few days only, removes all discharges from the urinary organs, effectually superseding injectiony, the use of which does irreparable harm: by laying the foundation of stricture and other serious dis- Dasps, In dysentery, piles, irritation of the lower bowel, cough, bronchitis, asthma, and some of the more trying complaints of this kind, it will be found astonishingly efficacious, affording prompt relief where other well-tried remedies have been powerless.

THERAPION No. 2, for impurity of the blood, scurvy, pimples, spots, blotches, pains and swellings of the joints, secondary symp toma, disease of the bones, sore throat, and all discates for which it has been too much a fashion to employ mercury, sarsaparilla, &c., to the destruction of the sufferer's teeth and rujn of health.
