There is a fascination in betel nut more extraordinary than a tobacco passion. .The; consumption of the latter in chewing alone, .in the United States, is a modern pheno- menon. ' An inveterate chewer may have moral resolution enough to break off the habit, though it rarely happens that a n effort is made to do so, as an apology is found for con- tinuing a practice that: is positively destroying,the foundations of health. Once addicted to chewing tobacco, to abandon. it is an achievement.few have the happiness to overcome, notwithstanding • the melancholy mortality of men in the meridian of t life who are constantly being des- troyed by the subtle influence of that strange plant on the nervous system. Thus sudden palsy of the heart, palsy of a limb, palsy of one half the tongue, and even instanta neons death , are traceable by phy- sicians to excessive use of tobacco. But the vice of betel nut chewing, however, is still more remarkable. When the habit is established, there seems no'retreat. Each victim wears nut his. teeth, gums, digestion, and dies with - an unsatisfied longing for another quid. - Betel nut trees thrive in most parts of tropical India, the Indian Archipelago and the Philip- pine Islands.W They grow sip grace- fully about thirty feet, rarely more than eight inches in diameter. It is a pains, areoa catechu. Penang is the universal name of the nut in those places where it is produced, hence Pulo Penang means a betel nut island. At six years of age the tree commences bearing nuts the size"of a small pullet's egg, of a bright yellow color, inclosed in. a husk similar :to the cocoanut ; with- in .is a spherical nut very much, like a nutmeg. Broken, a bit of it is wrapped -up with a piece of unslack- ed lime in a peculiar leaf, the airi betel --piper, extensively cultivated for that purpose. The - gums and mucus membrane of the mouth are quickly stained a brick red, the teeth crumble to a level with the gums, and in that con- dition an inveterate betel chewer is wretched without a supply. • There are large plantations of betel nut trees in Java :to meet demand for home consumption and distant prov- inces.

The following is from a speech de liverep by Dr. Chapin :=- r I love to hear the rumbling of the steam power press better than the rattle and roar of artillery.

It bears a leaden messenger of deadlier power, of sublimer force, and of a surer aim, which will hit its mark, though it is a thousand miles ahead."
