I The emperor of China is one of the hardest-worked men in the world, and according' to a curious custom that I have never heard explained he turns day into night, writes a correspondent of the Chicago Record. Some of the most important events in his daily pro gramme take place after midnight, and he frequently receives "visitors by ap pointment at three and four o'clock in rthe morning1. When Li Hung- Chang returned to Peking from his tour bround the world the emperor received him and heard his reports between four nd five o'clock a. m. lie has often re ceived ambassadors at similar hours. CThe emperor's work day begins at one lo'cloek p. m. He firstsees the members of the privy council, then he devotes an hour or two to the consideration of jtheir reports and recommendations, nd then he receives the members of the lofficial boards, viceroys, governors ajid other officials who have come to Peking to be presented or to pay tribute or receive instructions. He sits upon a throne upon a raised platform. They kneel before him with their foreheads touching the floor until he commands ithenv to lift their eyes. They are kept in this posture so long- that the old men always pad their knees, with cushions. ,The emperor dines about sunset, and has the third meal of the day at mid Blight. Sometimes he retires as early as one or two o'clock. a. :m., but he is (often at work until daylight. A Fine Compliment. f Ko more elegant compliment was ever paid to a preacher than that of King Louis XIV. of Franee to Jean Baptiste Massillon, bishop of Cler inont. Said he: "I have heard many igreat preachers, and the effect they produced on me was that I felt thor oughly satisfied with them. Every tim6 I heard you I have been dissatisfied vith myself."

The Queer Class of Patrons l"iat Thty Have- to Serve. -Chemists sometimes have queer ex periences; The following facts, says the' Chicago Journal, were told by a professor in one of the western universities: "For about ten years I have made a specialty of examining and reporting upon cases of real or sus pected poisoning. As a number of my. cases have been connected vith murder trials, I have had considerr-hle notice in the daily papers. This reputation for making analyses for poisons has brought me a queer class of patrons, "Every "year I have one cr more old men come to me with samples of food to be examined for poison. These men, without exception, have married young wives, and .when the husband i.sta'.ten sick and does not recover as quickly as he thinks he should, he begins to sus pect that his young wife r.a:;trs to get rid of him, and is poisoning him grad ually through the r.;ci!ium 01 kis foo. Of co-arse he decs not v.T.-t his wife to know of his suspicions, r.d hr quietly gets a sample cf the fcod he t-uepects, and at so:ne un.U3V.r.l kor.r for work, generally cither caily in the morning or very late in the evening, he comes to me and! tells me very socretiy that, he wishes to have. an examination for poi son made. - ' "Xow, the odd part ir, that, though I have made a number cf auch analyses, I have never found prison present in cny case. Then ilic bustard is very" much afraid that hi.-; x.l'c v,:Il iircl out that he suspect:- licr, r.r.d he gets out of my laboratory in the quickest and quietest manner pcsctlo. 0 every year I er-fect to nrc Ecme elderly man coming appro hczsircly tip. ruy office stairs with a v. cll-conccalc J sample of food about tim tobe examined for poi son. Every year he ccmcs, every year I make my analysis and rind no poison, and every year the eld gentleman gets information that he considers cheap at the price.'" SENSORY HALLUCINATIONS. ' The Seeing; of GZiohIs Dae to Defective EelS"fat. A recnt number of . the Australian Medical- Gazette contains, a brief- but instructive report cf the cure of a case of hallucinatory dUord?r. ' The patient, a man aged GO years, had suffered for two years from subjective visual sensa tions not a day passed that he did not see a large nuinbcr of spectral human figures, and believing himself to be haunted by ghosts he had become very despondent and melancholy. On seek ing medical advice it was found that he had senile cataract. When this was removed by operation' the ghosts fled and the man recovered his usual health. In this connection we may cite the case of a tradesman in Berlin whese shop 'was haunted by apparitions resembling in appearance some of his deceased cus tomers. He was an intelligent- man, aware that he. suffered from sensory hallucination, and made notes of his subjective impressions. In due time he submitted his eyes to examination and operation, with the result of a restora tion of normal vision and the immedi ate and final disappearance of his in tangible visitors. The obvious teach ing of the foregoing and similar cases is that in. these modern days the person to be resorted to for the exorcism of spir its and demons is the opthalmic Bur geon. ' : . f A.
