MEDICINE IN 1000 B. C..
Picturesque Specific.
Mr. A. de C. Sowerby delivered a fascinating lecture to the litor jary section of the British Wo- mon's Association at Shanghai last week on the practice of medicine by the. Chinese.
This most ancient of the arts. goes back at least 5,000 yours, said the speaker, and claims the mythical Emperor Fu Hai as its first patron. His successor, Shon Fung, was the first to try the hoaling offocts of herbs, avon experimenting upon himself, and recorded his results in a horbal bearing his name.
Medical practice in China has boon largely a secret art, and ita. carefully guarded formule have been handed down-from-father- to san. The Chou dynasty (1000- 300 B. C.) marked considerablo advance in the healing, art and a Stato Medical Service was in- augurated, consisting of the Mip- istry of Health for officials, a Public Health Department for the common people, a department Especializing in the care of ab- scossea, sores and the like, an Imperial Dietry and a Veterinary Surgory.
Many books on medicine, sur- gery and healing have been writ- ten, beginning with the Emperor Shong Nung's treatise on Modi- eine (2823 B. C.). The pulse was studiod, but 2 (1.80 carly practi- tioners had no knowledge of the hoart and its functions their | elaborato troatments based there- [on had no value.

Door horn, at $80 an ounce, is used as a tonic and rejuvenator, and probably does possess cartaini tonic qualities. Bulia, an extract from the largo warts ΟΙ the back of a toad's neck, has a distinctly stimulating oflect upon the hoart.
