Flaw the Hlo.vrs of Hie Pptr ra I.nrrd in
Pestrnrilon,
A qnartor of a century ngo an opinm
pfttrr ly which is meant a person who
habitually hops opium or its prepara
tions fts ft stimulant was a rarity; to
day opiinm-eatrrs aro counted by the
thousand. Meilieal books written twenty
years ago mention tho subject briefly or
not at all. while in all recent works on
therapeutics it forms an important
chapter. Until recently the principal
source of information possessed by the
pnblio upon this subject were the writ
ings of Do Quincey, a confirmed opium
eater, whose famous "Confessions" were
composed tinder the malign influence of
the drug; who whited the walls of the
deadly habit with the beautiful tints of
rhetoric of a hand always masterly bnt
oooasionally deceptive. The extraordi
nary headway which the opium habit
has made in this country is not appar
ent to the general pnblic for many and
sufficient reasons; but the large number
of cases met by physicians in private
practice, the institutions springing up
in which its treatment is made a spe
cialty, and the horde of charlatans who
advertise nostrums guaranteed to effect
a "needy and painless cure, show how
wi aespread and far-reaching is the evil,
which is met in all conditions and walks
of life, from the laborer to the gentle
man of elegant leisure, and in both
sexes.
The facilities for indulging in opium
stimulation explain the prevalence of
the habit among the better classes.
The gentleman who would not be seen
in a barroom, however respectable, or
who would not purchase liquor and use
it at home, lest the odor might be de
tected upon his person, procures his
supply of morphia and has it in his
pocket ready for instantaneous rise. It
is odorless and occupies but little space,
while its use is only made manifest in
its effects, which are rarely recognized
by any but the initiated. He zealously
guards his secret from his nearest friend
for popular wisdom has branded as a
disgrace that which he regards as a mis
fortune thus cutting him off from the
advice and aid of fribnds who would en
courage him to abandon the habit;
making, perhaps, spasmodio efforts to
fight the unequal contest alone, to meet
with repeated reverses and to fall still
deeper into the abyss from which he
would escape.
The careless manner in which physi
cians prescribe opiates, and the prevail
ing custom among druggists of dupli
cating prescriptions, are prolific sources
of the evil. The physician prescribes
morphia for a patient suffering from
painful disease, and relief is obtained.
Moreover, the sensations experienced
tinder the influence of the medicine are
peculiarly pleasureable. He goes back
to the drug store and has the medicine
renewed without the physician's advice
or direction. He finally learns that it
is morphia he has been taking, pur
chases a quantity, and finds that by its
nse he can relieve his pain or waft him
self into Elysium at pleasure. Finally
he ascertains that his life is being in
jured oris otherwise warned of the
danger, and attempts to give up its use.
Suddenly his eyes are opened to his
folly and he realizes the startling fact
that he is in the toils of ' a serpent as
merciless as the boa-constrictor and as
relentless as fate. With a firm." deter
mination to free himself he discontinues
its use. Now his sufferings begin and
steadily increase until they become nn
bearable. The tortures of Dives are
his ; but, unlike that miser, he has only
to stretch forth his hand to find oceans
with which to satisfy his thirst. That
human nature is not often equal to so
extraordinary a self-denial affords little
cause for astonishment. At length he
surrenders, but witn bad grace,
determined to renew the contest at no
distant day, under more favorable
circumstances ; returns to the drug, and
is again happy happier than ever in
contrast with the misery lately endured
bnt far from satisned.
In a medicinal dose the effects of
opium on a person not habituated to its
nse are of the most pleasing character.
though, like other powerful drugs, there
are persons on whom it produces un
usual and unpleasant effects. A few
minutes after taking an ordinary dose a
tingling sensation is felt over the entire
body; the heart s action is increased,
the muscular system invigorated, the
spirits are animated and the intellectual
faculties are stimulated to an unusual
extent. The eyes Bhine with a new
born light, the face is flushed, body and
mind evincing signs of unusual excita
tion. In the lower animals the spinal
cord is especially affected, but in man
the force of the drug is chiefly expend
ed on the brain. The body seems to
lose sensibilitv and weight, while the
mind enjoys a continuous round of
pleasure, detached from earthly cares and
living in a superior world of its own. It
is the human conception of Valhalla,
elysinm, and the happy hunting-grounds
combined; All sources of care and
anxiety are forgotten for tht time being,
and the most pleasing but extravagant
fancies are indulged in. This condition
gradually merges into unconsciousness
and sleep, followed on awa&ing by
lassitude and nausea, bearing a strong
resemblance to the after-effects of a
prolonged "spree."
The effects mentioned are put par
tially induced in the confirmed opium
eater. The stage of excitement is not
so pronounced, and the soporific effect
is limited to a drowsy somnolent con
dition, in which the subject is dull and
morose, evincing a dislike to disturb
ance of any kind. The eye soon loses
its luster, the cheeks become pale, the
Lands cold and clammy. The physical
and medical powers are depressed, the
muscular system relaxed, and the ner
vous organization gives unmistakable
evidence of great exhaustion. There is
now an intense craving for opium, which
nothing else can satisfy. Let the ab
stinence be continued anl the symptoms
are intensified. There is a sickening
feeling of oppression at the stomach,
the body is bathed in a cold perspira
tion, the sense of weariness is over
whelming, and relief is vainly sought
in momentary change of position.
Every fiber of the anatomy suffers and
cries out for its accustomed htimu
! i-it. A condition bordering on col
o ensues, which, nothing. but opium
can relievo. The sporty of thin ftnto is
indescribable, the craving for opium so
maddening nnd irresistible that no frc
rifleo would bo too great that would
afford relief.
The pleasures bo ably described by
De Quincey Bre onW for the tyro ; those
confirmed in the habit rarely taste them,
and only at tho expense of a consider
able increase of tho dose. The latter
use the drug, not from the pleasureable
sensations experienced from its use, but
to escape the misery resulting from ab
stinence therefrom. The opium fiend
lavishes his choicest pleasures upon
them while luring them on, but now
that they are securely in his grasp such
favors are denied. A curious fact may
be mentioned in connection with this
t. ., a dose of say three grains of mor
phia taken regularly semi-daily pro
duces in the consumer few of the
exhilarating effects described ; but let
him be without the drug for a consider
able time and one-half that quantity
will yield many of the old-time pleasures
as if the fiend were fearful of his vic
tim's escape and cunningly sought to
win him back by the means that had
previously proved so efllcncious.
The quantity of opiates which the
system will learn by constant use to
tolerate is almost incredible. Few per
sons who have been subject to the habit
for a year or more use loss than from
five to ten grains of morphia, or its
equivalent in other preparations, daily.
Gases are not uncommon where one
dram (sixty grains) was used each day;
and the superintendent of a Michigan
sanitarium related to the writer the case
of a lady who consumed ninety grains
per day. Indeed, it is difficult to con
ceive to what extent the habit may bo
carried when we bear in mind that there
is a constant tendency to increase the
quantity consumed. The National Di.i
pensatory speaks of a woman forty-
seven years of. age who had used opium
since the age of seventeen without ex
periencing any evil effects; and the New
York Medical Record records the case of
a British officer who for seventy years
bad used opium averaging during the
latter years ninety grains daily who
had attained the extraordinary age of
111 years, and was still in the enjoy
ment of excellent heallh.
The Chinese consume large quantities
of opium, and the people of the East
Mohammedans use it as a stimulant,
alcoholic liquors being forbidden by
their religion. Such cases as those
mentioned in the Medical Record and
National Dimengatorv are exceptional.
however, and prove nothing, except that
some people have remarkably good con
stitutions, capable of withstanding nn
extraordinary amount of abuse. The
Chinese, and Hindoos smoke opium,
while liUropeans and Americans eat it;
and though the narcotio effects may be
as pronounced in one case as in the
other, it does not necessarily follow
that the constitutional effects must be
the same. It is also possible that the
more delicate nervous organization of
the Caucasian may render him more
susceptible to the deleterious effects of
narcotio stimulants than the Chinaman
or Hindoo. The emperor of China was
so impressed with a sense of the bale
ful effects of opium that he refused to
allow its importation into his empire,
and finally yielded only at the point of
the bayonet, after a bloody and expen
sive war with England, whose mer
chants profit by the unholy traffic as
they did by the slave trade carried on
with the American colonies in years
gone by.
The direct constitutional effects aris
ing from the use of opium are loss of
appetite, nervousness, tremor, insom
nia, hyperesthesia, lessened secretions,
emaciation and low temperature, the
two latter arising from the arrest of
metamorphosis, upon which the nutri
tion and warmth of the body depend.
Among the remote effects are insanity
and a host of nervous disorders too nu
merous to mention. Catholic World.
Wild Kill."
The surrender of Sitting Bull recalls
one of the " genuine Indian scouts " of
General Custer. He was a fellow of the
most singular temperament, and was
known on the plains as Wild Bill, albiet
his actual name was James Hickok
Wild Bill, under circumstances of par
ticular aggravation, shot and killed a des
perado in Missouri. Years afterward Bill
became a member of Buffalo Bill's droll
theatrical company, and, in compliance
with the story of the play, had to repeat
every night upon the stage the killing
which, as a reality, had made him fa
mous. Bill watched the rehearsal pa
tiently, then he went to the stage
manager "leant kill that thar chap,
no how," quoth Bill. " Why not V in
quired the manager. "Well," said Bill,
tranquilly, " Buffalo slings him around
in the first act, and Maeder clips him
in the ear in the second act, and Mrs
Maeder drives him out of the ranche
with a broom in the third act. Then
I've got to kill him after all in the
fourth act. Whv, I never killed such a
coyote as that In all mv life 1 It's all

more or less, deeply imbedded in his
flesh, Wild Bill never sustained an in
ternal wound. He was killed while
playing cards, by a scoundrel who, for
1i 500 blood-money paid him by pamb-
lers, sneaked up behind Bill and blew
his brains ont. Bill was.strangely enough
a very honest and courageous fellow and
in his oflice of marshal, was the terror
of the " crooked" gamblers of the Ter
ritory. The post mortem examination
of his remains explained his immunity
from penetrative bullet wounds. It was
discovered that his ribs were welded to
gethef, the intercostal cartilages and
muscles having ossified. His lungs and
heart, therefore, were naturally pro
tected by a cnirass of bone. Such was
the wonderful rapidity with which Bill
could draw his pistol that, even in the
sudden death which befell him he had
time enough and sense enough to put
his hand upon the butt of his revolver.

HEALTH HINTS.
Tho Medical Record, ppeakinfr of warm
milk as a bovernpie, pays: "Milk heated
to much above 100 deg. F. losos for tho
time a depreo of its sweetness and its
density. No one who, fatigued by over
exertion of body and mind, has ever
experienced tho reviving influence of a
tumbler of this beverage, heated as hot
as it can be sipped, will willingly forego
a resort to it because of its hnving been
rendered less acceptable to the palate.'
The promptness with which its cordial
influence is folt is indeed surprising.
Some portions of it seems to be digested
and appropriated almost immediately ;
and many who now fancy they need al
coholic stimulants when exhausted by
fatigue, will find in this sinplo draught
an equivalent that shall be abundantly
satisfying, and far more enduring in its
effects."
The French commissioners on the
hygiene of infancy, in awarding the
prize in a competition of essayists, re
port that the conclusion generally ar
rived at leads to the following recom
mendations : No child should be roared
on artificial food when the mother can
suckle it, but such food fs preferable to
placing the child with a wet nurse,
poorly remunerated and living at her
own home. For successfully bringing
tip an infant by hand the best milk is
hat of a cow which has recently calved,
or similarly of a goat, to which should
be added the first week a half part of
water, and consequently a fourth or
less, according to the digestive powers
of the child. Glassware or earthen
ware alone should be used : no vulcan
ized India rubber mouthpiece or ves
sels containing lead ought to be used.
Although salicylio acid, from having
been too highly extolled, has fallen
somewhat into disfavor, there can be no
doubt that it is useful in tho case of
bee stings. An Austrian paper recom
mends the following treatment : First,
to remove the sting as quickly as possi
ble with a forceps or by scratching with
a finger, but never the thumb and fore
finger, because this squeezes more of
the poison into the wound. Next
squeeze the wound until a drop of blood
comes out, and rub the place as large
as a dollar with an aqueous or dilute
elcoholic solution of salicylio acid. The
affect is still better by injecting the
salicylio acid into the wound with the
hyperdomic syringe. After this the
spot is painted with collodion to keep
out the air. A sting treated thus causes
little or no pain, slight inflammation
and swelling, and is not followed by
nettle fever or lameness in the most
sensitive and nervous individuals.
Scientific News.
All kinds of burns, including scalds
and sunburns, are almost immediately
relieved by the application of a solution
of soda to the burnt surface. It must
be remembered that dry soda will not
do unless it is surrounded with a cloth
moist enough to dissolve it. This
method ol sprinkling it on and covering
it with a wet cloth is often the very
best. iiut it is snlhcient to wash the
wound repeatedly with a strong solu
tion. It would be well to keep a bottle
of it always on hand, made so strong
that more or less of it settles on the
bottom. This is what is called a satur
ated solution, and really such a solution
as this is formed when the dry soda is
sprinkled on and covered with a moist
ened cloth. It is thought by some that
the pain of a burn is caused by the hard
ening of the albumen of the flesh which
presses on the nerves, and that the soda
dissolves the albumen and relieves the
pressure. Others think that the burn
generates an acrid acid, which the soda
neutralizes.

A (Jreat M'estern Farmer.
A correspondent of the Chicago Inter
Ocean, who visited Mr. Dalrymple, the

a "slender, quiet-looking man, with a
pen behind his ear, whom you would
judge to be a schoolmaster or clergyman
at sight. His hands were soft and
white moro accustomed to the book
or pen than the plow and his face,
where it is not covered with beard, was
not burned as much as mine." His farm
is the largest in the world, embracing
30,000 acres. It is forty-five miles long
aud about one mile wide. It will yield
this year 600,000 bushels of wheat and
00,000 bushels of oats. At present Mr.
Dalrymple is sending three trainloads
of wheat a day to Duluth, where he
loads a vessel every two days for Buffalo.-
He employs 800 men and runs
200 self-binding harvesters and thirty
steam threshers. The harvesters cut an
average of 2,800 acres a day, and the
thrashers turn out about 30,000 bushels
a day. Mr. Dulryniylo estimates the
cost of production for this year at 87
per acre, or on his entire farm 210,000.
His wheat, 600,000 bushels, brings him
a net uriee of 81 a bushel. His profits
therefore, will be, in round numbers
the difference between $210,000 am
