Du ing that time, also, sassafras tea w? largely used as a substitute for coffi and thc ordinary tea of com mere Tho sassafras infusion, however, is moro healthful bovcrago than cith tea or coffee. It has positive alter tivc properties, and as a blot remedy it should bo ranked aloi with sarsaparilla. It is also a d ructio and soporific ; it is good f tho kidneys and to produce porspir tion. It is valuable in cases of col or fevers.

Vt.,' Diagnosis: a Case* l?elon . lt. Gardiner, io Harper, relates this laedloal nneodoto os ono sho beard from a surgeon's assistant, a trained nurse : It was a Japanese boy. He was as solid as a little ox, but he tole Dr. G. that he'd been talcing homoopathio proscription for a oold. That was enough for Dr. G. A red flag in the van of a bovine animal is nothing to tho word "homoeopathy" to Dr. G. Ho questioned the little Jap, who could not spoak good Eng lish, and bad tho national inolination to agree with whatever you say. "Did you over spit blood ?" asked Dr. G. by and by, aftor ho could find nothing olso wrong oxcopt tho Httlo cold for which the homcoopathio doc tor was treating tho boy. "Once," replied tho youthful vic tim. "Aha!" wo aro gotting at tho root of this mattor now," said Dr. G. j toil mo, truly, ila oarofui. Did you spit muoh blood ?" "YOB, sir, a good doab" Tho doctor sniffed. Ho always know that a homoopathio humbug could not diagnose a oaso, and would bo likely to got just about as near tho facts as a light cold would como to tuberculosis. "How long did this last?" ho inquired of tho smiling boy. "I think-it scorns to me-" "A half hour?" queried tho doc tor. "Twenty minutes?" "I think BO. YOB, sir, about half an hour-twenty minutes," responded tho obliging youth. I hoard that talk. Common sonso told mo tho boy's lungs woro all right, but it waB nono of my business. So I watched him treated, off and on, for lung trouble for ovor a month before I got a chanco to ask him any questions. Then I asked him, inci dentally : "What made you spit that blood that time, Uihi?" "I didn't know 1 ought to swallow him," ho replied, wido oyed and anxious. "Dentist pull tooth. Ho! say to me, 'Spit blood hore.' I do Uko ho toll mo. Your doctor Bay vcr' bad for luuga Bpit blood.
