CHINESE JUSTICE.
A, Storx of Li Hang; Chus Hen
Who Tried to Poison Him.
Of Li Hung Chang numberless stories
are told in Chinese society. On one oc
The Literary Digest, , when
the premier was having a bitter fight
with some of the more conservator
members of the tsung-li-ynmen he re
ceived as a present a magnificent cake
which he had reason to suspect contained
poison. He put the cake aside and set all
bis powerful machinery to. work to find
out who was at the bottom of the plot.
The investigation was partly successful,
the crime being traced to three men, of
whom one at least was absolutely
guilty. Li had the trio arrested and
brought to his yamen. When they ar
rived, they were ushered into his pres
ence and were received in his courtliest
manner. The cake was produced with
the remark that "politeness forbade his
tasting it until the three generous do
nors had bad an opportunity to enjoy its
excellence." Li cut thecake, and one of
his servitors handed it to the unwilling
guests. Each took a piece and ate or
pretended to eat it. One crumbled the
pieces and let them fall upon the floor,
but the other two ate calmly, without
manifesting any emotion. Ten minutes
and the two men began to show symp
toms of suffering. Li smiled benignantly
and said to the man who had not eaten,
"Your wisdom is, so great that I am
compelled to preserve your head as a
souvenir to transcendent genius."
The man was removed and promptly
decapitated. To the other two the pre
mier remarked: "The cake that you are
eating is not the one you sent, but one
which I had my cook imitate. The poi
son from which you are suffering exists
only In your imagination. I- know of no
way to cure your present pain except by
letting you share the same fate as your
friend who has just left the room."
As they were led away the statesman
said to his retinue, "It is a pity that a
man who can eat a deadly corrosive
poison with an unmoved countenance
should bo misapply the talent wherewith
heaven has endowed him."
Coffee and Egg.
A cup of coffee may be made very
nourishing for an invalid if a well beaten
egg is stirred into it and a little cream
added. Mix together the egg, sugar and
cream, then pour in the hot coffee gradu
ally, whipping it with a silver fork Tak
en in this way, the coffee is almost as
good as a meal for an invalid.

BARIUM ROCK SPRING
WATER,
(Old Poison Spring), Is nature's specific for
every form of skin disease and blood poison. It
does not, like soap and ointment, merely de
stroy for a time the external signs, but goes to
the root of the evil and drives out the poison in
the blood which causes the eruptions to appear.
MlTHODIST PAKSOHAOK, '
Rockingham, N. C , Oct. 14. 1898.
I can bear testimony to the great value of
Barium Rock Spring Water for Eczema and
other eruptive diseases of the skin. I have
known many cases cured, some of them of the
most stubborn character. .
