CIGARETTES AND CONSUMPTION.
That is the opinion of a physician of
wide experience who also said: "When
cigarettes are pure and used by adults
they are not so objectionable, `but
whether pure or doctored with opium,
n as some cigarettes are, they are poison -
in • ous for young boys. The tobacco and

e to the detriment of the breathing ap-

• there is no better way to help it along

HE • IS A CONSPIRATOR.
Without the co-opeation of the
druggist the abuse of drugs would be
impossible, but despite the efforts of
the medical societies and notwith-
standing the prohibitive legislation on
the subject, druggists continue to sup-
ply people with noisonous mixtures
without receiving authority to do so
1n the form of a physician's prescrip-
tion. This does not apply to the head-
ache remedies, but Only to draughts,
balms, salves and lotions forevery ill
that flesh is heir to.
From all that can be learned on the
subject, the greatest harm has been
done by the sale of morphine by drug-
gists, and the growth of the morphine
habit is charged to the recklessness of
those who have it for sale. "Morphine
is prescribed every day," said a physi-
cian of large practice, "and often the
patient acquires a liking for the mor-
phine effect, which instead of trying
to conquer. be cultivates until the drug
conquered him. If be has sense enough
left when that stage has been reached
he will blame his druggist, who did
not refuse to repeat, the morpbine pre-
scription the first fhne it was asked
for.
POTASSIA ANI CHLORAL.
There are remedies which are not
classified as poisons which may do
much mischief when handled by Peo-
ple who are ignorant as to their com-
position. In such cases they may be-
come nothing less than poisons. ""There
is certainly no less harmful a drug. ac-
cording to popular opinion, than chlor-
ate of potash, and there are not many
families where it is not used occasion-
ally without a physician's prescrip-
tion. No druggist would think of
marking it 'poison,' and still there are
cases on record where one dram taken
in the course of a night has caused the
death of a child, and where one-half
ounce, taken in the course of several
days, has killed an adult.
Any one may go to a drug store and
buy chloral without a physiian's pre-
scription. It is not marked 'poison,'
but it takes no physician to tell you
that it is a deadly drug, and the daily
papers will show the observer how
much mischief it does. The papers tell
of the deaths caused by taking the
drug, but the thousands of caseswhere
the chloral habit has been contracted
because people have been enabled to
procure the drug are known only to
the unfortunate sui?iects and to their
grieving families. The first step is
taken when the druggist gives the per-
son something to make him sleep. The
amall dose becomes a large one after
a while ; it continues to. grow, and at '
last another wreck is added to the long
list,"

by the drug dealer to persons who

locally by ophthalmic snigeons, and
hypodermically in other surgical cases.
"The people who take cocaine," said
a physician who has given the sub-
tject much attention, "are usually of
he class who have already fallen slaves
to the opium habit. They take it at
first in an experimesl way, to pro-
duce a ne wsensation, and so slip into
the habit. But if the dispensers of the
drug insisted on having prescriptions,
many would be stopped . in the slipping

engineer has been the removal from the
space occupied by the congregation of
the paths followed by the currents of
air conveying the warmth from the
sources of heat to the radiating surfaces

of air of different temperatures. Prof.
Fischer maintains that the system of
heating the upper more that, the lower
regions of the air, is the only proper
course in such lofty buildings as
churches, fax whereas with the ordin-
ary method the air heated on or be-

effectually to prevent the descent of

THE SULTAN S TROUBLES.
Three Inmates of His lfareln Have Man-
ageli to Escape.
The Sultan has had an annoying do-
mestic upset to add to his troubles. It
has been rumored fax weeks past that
something serious had occurred in his
Majesty's barean, fax the chief eunuch
had frequent audiences with the Sul-
tan, and Izzet Bey was known to
have been holding a secret inquiry in-
volving the examination of a large
number of harem officials. It is now
learned, on what seems to be reliable
authority, that the trouble had its
origin in the eternal Armenian diffi-
culty. The Sultan had in his berme
three young Armenian women, and
when the news of the last massacre in
the t

within the harem the Tuakish and Cir-
cassian women maltreated the Armen-
ians so brutally that they resolved up-
on the desperate expedient of fleeing
from the harem. An escape of that sort.
is virtually unprecedented, but the
young women managed to get out,
and not a trace has since been found
of
them. hem. Two old harem slaves, 7 vee, both
Armenians, confessed under torture to
aiding the fugitives, but were unable
to say where they took refuge. The
slaves were quietly killed, and the same
undoubtedly awaits the fugitives if
captured. The impression prevails in
Constantinople that they found an asy-
lum in one of the embassies, and the
Sultan is satisfied himself that this is
the only possible explanation of the.
failure of his agents to find then",

Wheat and its by-products, screen-

part of an economical ration in many
parts of our country. If screenings are
used they should be fed raw so the fowls
should not be compelled to eat the
dust, poisonous seed, and other foulness
contained in them. Moistened bran is
apt to produce scours, especially during
the winter, and if fed at al] should be
alternated with whole grain. Though
wheat is rich in material for growth

is little value in barley malt ; it must be
fed fresh. If used too freely it scours.
In this country buckwheat is fed more
to make a glossy plumage than as a
stable part of the ration. It is very fat-
tening, and in France, where largely
used, it is said to be valuable in whiten-
ing the flesh. The yolks of eggs pro-
duced from it are pale. Sun -flower
seeds are also good for giving a glossy

whet the appetite.
Millet and Hungarian on account of
their small size, are very nice grains for
young chicks and where raised or when
reasonable in price may help snake up

In the rice growing states, that grain
is often thecheapest fed that can be

PERSECUTED BY PROFITS.
A Rich Man Who Trice to Lose Ills For
time. but P'an't.
The history of John Lawrence School -
craft, who now, broken-hearted and
aimless in life, plods uncomplainingly
through a. weary existence, earning by
constant labor a bare maintenance, is
a sad one. Several+days ago bonds
and securities amounting to $G0,000
e were found in the bottom of a cast-off
d trunk in the Saratoga hotel at Chicago.
The finding of such valuables has led
to an investigation, and the fact has
been established that the bonds and
securities belong to John Lawrence
Schoolcraft formerly of Kentucky.
Chief of Police l3adenoch of Chicago,
when he turned over the securities to
the owner, instead -of making shim
happy,, brought sorrow and suffering
to him, a5 the bonds recalled a sad
event in his life, which he had striven
hard to wipe out and forget. The day
, the bonds were found by a waiter at
the Saratoga Hotel Sehoolcraft was
earning his living by addressing letters
at $1 per thousand. It was quickly
Iearned that he was the owner of the
bonds, for he had the hotel check for
the trunk in which they were found.
He also had a reoeipted bill for his
board at the Saratoga Hote%% He,
when asked in regard to securities he
once possessed, gave the numbers readi-
ly. Chief Badenoch, wanting to be
more sure, however, sent Sehoolnraft's
picture to his old home in Richmond,
Va. Letters were received immediate-
ly from prominent business men of
Richmond saying the picture was un-
doubtedly that of Sohoolcraft. This
dismissed all doubts as to the man's
identity and

Did you ever give your horse a cup of
coffee? Of course not. Who ever heard
of such a thing being done t The great
German naturalist, Martin, is authority
for abut we write about coffee and
horses. Recently he saw a horse so ut-
terly a wreck, physically and so badly
used up by illness that he was regarded
as incurable by lie owner. His condi-
tion can be best described, as a living
skeleton, barely able to walk. He was
traded off for a trifle. .The man that
bought him immediately began to give
him infusions of roasted coffee and
ground coffee beans with honey. In a
brief period the animal began to im-
prove and show signs of friskiness. In
a few months, the naturalist tells us,
this horse had so recovered his normal
health and strength that the new own-
er was offered a large pricy for him.
The man told Mr. Martin, who had be-
come interested in the statement, that
he brought round into perfect health
by this method a great number of horses
tho,t had been overworked, or that had
lost their strength and appetite. The
naturalist believes that the knowledge
of such treatment far the extended use-
fulness of the horse should be widely
diffused, and, being in harmony with
his views in this particular, we have
thought it worthy of note.

that it is not well cared for, fax it

is
the estretching
of the belly by set-
ting the hind and fore feet far apart.
This disease is called the stretches, and
is due to insufficient nutriment, or too
much coarse indigestible food. Biting

ammation of the skin, due doubtless
to disordered digestion, or it may be
due to the presence of ticks. The- snuf-

Ten years ago John Lawrence School -
craft was a vigorous, handsome young
man of 29 years. He was an enter-
prising young business man and was
a member of the firm of Campbell &
Schoolcraft of Richmond, Va. The firm
was a ovular one and made money
fast. Sehoolcraft had extensive busi-
ness ventures outside of his regular
business, and all of them netted him
big gains: Mrs. Schoalcraft was a
beautiful, woman and was one ° of the
most attractive and fascinating leaders
of Richmond society. Sehoolcraft ido-
lized. his wife, and his whole life seem-
ed to be given up to her pleasure and
happiness. One day he awoke to the
realization that a young lawyer named
Stein, who had been one of his most
confident and trusted friends, - had
robbed him of his wife's affections. The
affair had gone too far to admit of any
reconciliation and with a broken heart
he left her. The made no complaint,
neither did he utter a word of cen-

property and business interests into
cash and portable securities and left

LOST IN LONDON.
Londoners lost last year 15,121 um
brelles and sticks, 2,499 purses and 2i=
306 bags, And they also lost £700 in
a banker's bag, an astronomical teles
cope, dozens 01 bicycles, a bantam cook,
a cat, a canary in a cage, chairs, cyl-
inders of compressed gas, dogs, electric
batteries, foot warmers, a horse's brain
in spirits, some opium, perambulators,
rifles and guns, a sewing machine on
a stand, swords, soldiers' kits, stage
properties,. a suit of chain mail and
numberless workmen's tools. Contem-
pla,in; such impedime,nts enables one
to bellive the tale of the temperance
bandsman returning from the Crystal
Palace fete, "a bit on," who protested
to the guard at Victoria that he had
lost his ticket. "Nonsense," said the
guard, "you can't have lost your tick-
et-" "Loss my ti—ticket; why I've—
I—lost the big drum." Out of the 32,-
997 articles lost by Londoners during
the year, 17,108 were restored to their
owners, and 15,889 were given up to the
cab drivers and 'bus conductors who
found them,
QUAINT LONDON LONDON CUSTOM.
The annual "Lion sermon," which has
just been preached in the Church of
St. Katharine Cree, Leadenhall street,
Landon, has been preached annually in
the same church for 251 years. Its
origin is due to one Sir John Gayer,
a former Lord Mayor of London
who, traveling in a wild part of Asia,
far in advance of his attendants, sud-
denly found himself alone andface to
face with a lion. Being a pious man,
Sir John fell on his knees and pray-
ed God to protect him in his hour of
need. The prayer was answered, for,
on his rising, Sir John saw the animal
walking away. Considering his es-
cape miraculous, on his return to Lon-
don Sir John set aside a fund for dis-
tribution to the poor on each suc-
ceeding anniversary, and a sermon be
preached to tell future generations how
God heard his prayer and delivered
him from the mouth of the lion.
