ODORS IN THERAPEUTICS.
Perfumes and Their Uee In the Prac
tice of Medicine.
Odors, whether agreeable or dis
agreeable, are not causes of disease In
t e sense generally taken. They may
disorder certain healthy functions by
Impairing nervous energy, by diminish
ing wholesome respiration and thus
creating a predisposition to attack by
disease.
Severe faintness is sometimes observ
ed to overcome persons upon their en
trance Into a room in which tuberoses
are kept. Headache is often produced
by the odors emanating from the hon
eysuckle, lily, rose of Sharon or carna
tion. The odor of betony in flower is
said to have caused intoxication in
those who gather it. The making of
linseed decoctions and the triturating of
roses, pinks, walnuts or colocynth are
often accompanied by attacks of syn
cope.
Attempts have been made to utilize
odors in therapeutics. The odors of
vanilla and heliotrope are credited with
possessing a soothing influence over
persons subjected to attacks of nerv
ousness. The use of toilet water in
the form of a spray will often restore
those exhausted with the cares of busi
ness, social or domestic duties. In the
east the use of perfume is considered
a purifier, though we look upon it mere
ly as a luxury. It is asserted that those
who are employed in laboratories
where perfumes are made or among
growing flowers are healthy to an ex
tent exceeding those not so employed.—

QUEER MARRIAGE CUSTOM.
The Malay Bride Has to Have Her
Teeth Filed Away.
Some of the national marriage cus
toms of other countries are distinctly
quaint and interesting and to us appear
curious enough. Our conventional white
satin and orange blossoms are certainly
traditional, but otherwise we indulge in
no real madness apart from the throw
ing of rice and old shoes.
An instance of a curious marriage
custom is that of lower Ceylon, where
a cocoanut, which is regarded as a sort
of oracle, is sacrificed to the deities and
devils as a solemn offering.
In Japan the symbolic girdle, so much
more expressive than our simple wed
ding ring, is the outward sign of mar
riage, while in Burma the piercing of
the ears is the prelude to matrimonial
considerations.
In Malay, however, the poor bride
experiences a bad quarter of an hour
before her marriage, inasmuch as she
has to have her teeth filed down almost
to the level of her gums, a process
piteously painful as well as disfiguring.
In spite of this pain, however, she is
expected to participate in the wedding
dance and festivities generally.—Lon
don Standard.
Nnnn and the Clergy.
A prominent London clergyman, in
referring to the fact that the tendency
to encourage the visitation by the cler
gy of the sick in acute cases is less than
it was, remarked that “this is probably
one of the results of the more careful
system of modern nursing, which lay3
stress on the importance of keeping the
sickroom quiet. The old idea was that
the friends of the sick person should
be allowed to crowd into the room.
Now the nurse shuts them out, with
good results in the main. The nurse
has, therefore, become an exceedingly
powerful force In regulating the ar
rangements of the modern household
when there is Illness in the home, and
it often practically rests with her, more
than with the doctor, to determine
whether the patient shall be visited by
the parish priest.’’
Carious Chinese Playing Cards.
A pack of Chinese playing cards is a
genuine curiosity. They are generally
printed in black on thin cardboard, the
average width and breadth being about
that of the finger of a human being. In
some cases they are only half an inch
broad and about three and a half inch
es In length. The length, no odds what
the size, is always at least six times
that of the width. Some of the packs
have queer representations of our
“kings,” “queens” and “knaves” stamp
ed upon them in black. Others are dec
orated with the figures of animals,
birds and fishes. Those used by man
darins and high officials bear only fig
ures of mythological creatures.
He Had Been There.
The clergyman was holding a chil
dren’s service at a continental resort.
During the lesson he had occasion to
catechise his hearers on the parable
of the unjust steward. “What is a
steward?” he asked. A little boy, who
had arrived from England a few days
before, held up his hand. “He is the
man, sir,” he replied, with a reminis
cent look on his face, “who brings you
a basin.”—London Globe.
Cordiality.
Cordiality Is the least expensive and
farthest going of all commodities, and
its practitioners represent our best suc
cesses. It is the key which unlocks the
social and business doors, bringing men
closer together, helping them to better
work together, lightening their bur
dens and changing the twilight of trou
ble into the sunlight of happiness.—
“Gumption,” by N. C. Fowler, Jr.
To Do Good.
It is an eternal and inevitable condi
tion that to do good we must be good.
When any one is a truly good man,
then even if he takes no part whatever
in holy wars against the sin of the
world his mere unconscious Influence
becomes a blessing to others.—Wom
an’s Life.
Life is to be fortified by many friend
ships. To love and to be loved Is the
greatest happiness of existence—Syd
ney Smith.
