Mast Chinanu n are driven to it through lmitiess reverses mid other troubles, while not a few contracted the habit through sociability, just ns hu Aiuenc.in would do on their "take drink" with a friend. It takes just about the same length of time to set the opium habit as to et the drinking habit. The latter destroys the mind, and makes a man irresponsible for his actions, while the former destroys the body but makes a keau thinker of the victim. It is estimated that there are eomethinij over 1,0X Americans in the city of New York who are now usin. opium in the same manner and form as the Chinese Most of these are said to be well known and fashionable people, as indeed no oilier but people of means und of leisure could ever lie able to coutrct encha habit.

Most of the wholesale orders come from towus and cities in and aronu J New York state, ail only now and then the native American customers from up towncomo in to buy their supply. Say they only sell u;i avenue of three cans per day. At wjjusule rates, which is $$.35 per' can for Cinii: i;npr;ed goods, but when retailed out by the lift y cents' worth at a time it would bi'iu.; it np to about $ll) to $ 11 per can. At 10, which is the lowest possible price per can, sixty-six cans amount to per day, or $2-13,000 per year. There are eleven joints. The minority of these import their own opium, said to be direct from China, bet the greater part of which comes from Victoria, B. C. One of these places, which is the U'st Chinese joint in town, sells at retail ou Sundays alone from tea to twelve cans, white the second best pi. ice sells from eirht to ten cans on Sundays. On an average these joints dispose of live cans a day. These places calculate to uui.ee from $"J to $3 ou each can of Ciiiuese impoited opium, but they are al ie to make mure when they mix the Victoria in with the pure.

Talking of patent medicines ' you know the ola prejudice. And the doctors some ' of them are between you and us. They would like you to think that what's cured thousands won't cure you. You'd be lieve . in patent medicines if they didn't profess to cure everything and so, between the experiments of doctors, and the experiments of patent medicines that are sold only because there's money in the "stuff, '"you lose faith in every thing. And, you can't always tell the prescription that cures by what you read in the papers. So, perhaps, there's no better way to sell a remedy, than to tell the truth about it, and take the risk of its doing just what it professes to do. That's what the World's Dispensary Medical Associa tion, of Buffalo, N. Y., does with Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, Favorite Prescription, Pleasant,. Pellets, and Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy.

Popular Science News. The ( lab a Weapon. From the earliest times, the club was a lavorite military weapon, its primitive form being simply of a straight stick, much heavier tit one end than at the other, and adapted fur use either by one or both hands. With improvements in other styles or weapons, however, came the mace. The mace is a shafted weapon, consisting of a wooden handle fitted into an iron head, the latter being of mnnv different styles. Some maces have phalanges on '.ho sides; others are round like an oran-e, and furnished with sharp projecting points; while others Hgain are in the shape of two imperial crowns placed base to base. The mace was a ho: sctnan's weapon, usually fastened to Ids saddle during the march, and, in an action, suspended by a cord round his wrist. It was a favorite c ; weapou for fight: n ecclesiastics, of . whom there were many during the mid die ages. Priests, by a canon of the church, being forbidden to use the sword, the mace, the lance, thelialberd -and .sev eral other weapons of this description, were allowed to take the place of that weapon, which, in all ages, has been typ ical of war. A modification of the mace was a plain hammer or nmul, frequently carried by long bowrm n. It was a simple mallet of wood or of iron, with a handle 4 or 5 feet long, used as an offensive weapon at clo.se quarters. Globe-Democrat. The Work of a lianctiman, A ranchman's work is, of course, free from much of the sameness attendant upon that of a mi re cowboy. One day he will ride out with his men among the cattle, or after strayed horses; the next he may hunt, so as to keep the ranch in meat; then he can make the tour of his outlying camps; or, again, may join one of the round ups for a week or two, per haps keeping with it the entire time it is working. On occasions he will have a good deal of spare time on his handi, which, if he chooses, he can spend in read ing or writing. If he cares for books, there will be many a worn volume in the primitive little sitting room, with its log walls and huge fire place; but, after a hard day's work, a man will not read much, but will rock ,to and fro in the flickering firelight, talking sleepily over his success in the day's che.se and ti e difficulty he has had with the cattle; or else may simply lie stretched at full length on the elk hides and wolf skins in front of the hearthstone, listening in drowsy silence to the roar and crackle of the blazing logs and to the moaning of the wind outaiue.

H'oavon only knows the iivuiy I j then emluied, fur words can never ; describe it. And yet, if a few vearn previous any one lind told me that was ! to lv brought so low, and lv so terrible a disease, 1 tdiould have neolled at the idea. I had always boon niuHinituonly jstiMiii: mid healthy, mid weighed over j '.'.Hi pounds and Imnlly knew, in my ex ' perieiieo, w hat pain ir tucknooM were. 1 Very many people who read this ntate- iiieiit realie at times that they are tin- usitnllv tired and cannot iietvni'nt for it. j Thev feel dull nains in vnrioua partM of Ithebiidy and do not understlind wliy. f tr they are exceedingly hniitfry one iliiy ; and entirely without ap(etite the next. This was hist the way 1 felt when the relentless malady which had fastened itself upon me' fust U'gun. Still 1 thoiiirlit notliiuc of it; that prolwbly I had taken a cold which would Moon pass Hay. Shortly, after this I noticed a heavy, and at times neuralnie, pain in one side (if my head, but as it would come one day and lv tfono the luyxt, I paid little iitientiou to it. Then my stomach would et out of order am! my food m'ten fa'lisl to digest, enusin at times ktrent inconvetiienee. Yet, even as a physician, I did not think that these things meant iiuythiiiK serious, I fancied I was siilterini; (roui malaria and doctored myself accordingly. Hut I ot no better. ' 1 next noticed a peculiar color and odor iiKutt the thuds 1 was passim: also that there were large quantities one day and very little the nest and that a' persistent froth ami scum appeared on the surface, and a sediment settled. And yet I did not realize my danger, for, indeed, seeing these muptoniM continually, 1 finally became' accustomed to them, and my suspicion w as w holly disarmed bv the fact that I nad no pain in the affected organs or in their vicinity. Why I should have W'on so blind I cannot un derstand. I consulted the best medical skill in the land 1 visited all the famed min eral springs in America and traveled from Maine to California. Still I grew worse. No two physicians agreed as to my malady. One said 1 was troubled with spinal irritation; another, dyspep sia; another, heart disease; another, general debility ; another, congestion of the base of the brain ; and so on through a long list of common diseases, the sym to:us of many of which I really had. In this way several years passed, during which time I was steadily growing worse. Mv condition had real!v become pitiable. The flight symptoms I had at first ex perienced were developed into terrible and constant disorders. Mv weight had been reduced from 207 to I U0 pounds. My life was a burden to myself and friends. I could retain no food on my stomach, and lived wholly by injections. I was a living mass n pain. Jlv pulse was uncontrollable. In my agonv I fre quent !y fell to the fhior anil clutched the eariiet.'nnd prayed for death. Morphine had little or no' effect in deadening the pain. For ix days and nights I had the death-premonitory hiccoughs constantly. Mv water was tilled with tube-casts and alimmen. I was struggling with r.right'j Disease of the kidneys in its last stages ! Whi e suffering thus I received a call from my pastor, t lie Rev. Dr. Foote, at that time rector of St. Paul's Episcopal (,'hurch, of this city. I felt that it was our last interview, but in the course of conversation Dr. Foote detailed to me the many remarkable cures of cases like my ow n which had come under his ob servation. As a practicing physician and a graduate of the schools I derided the idea of any medicine outside the regular channels being in the least lien elicial. So solicitous, however, was Dr. Foote, that T finally promised I would waive my prejudice. I licgan its use on the first day of June, 1881, and took it according to directions. At first it siek- ened me; but this 1 thought was a goes! sign for one in mv debilitated condition I continued to take it; the sickening sensation departed and I was finally able to retain food on my stomach. In a few days I noticed a decided change for the better, as also did my wife and friends. My hiccoughs ceased and I ex perienced less pain than formerly.

' Since mv recovery I have thoroughly re-investigated the subject of kidnev dif ficulties and Blight's disease, and the truths developed are astounding. 1 therefore state, deliberately, and as a physician, that I believe more than one h'if the, ihailm which occur in America are cmixi'tl In) lit iijht'n Wmiim of lite kid ney. This may sound like a rash state ment, but I nm prepared to fully verify it. Blight's disease has no distinctive features of its own, (indeed, it often develops witbout any pain whatever in the kidneys or their vicinity) but has the symptoms of nearly every other com mon" complaint. Hundreds of people die daily, whose burials are authorized bv a physician's certificate as occurring from ""Heart Disease," "Apoplexy," "Paralysis," "Spinal Complaint," "Rheumatism," "Pneumonia," and otlier common complaints, when in real ity it is from Blight's disease of the kid neys. Few physicians, and fewer peo ple realize the extent of this disease or its dangerous and insidious nature. It steals into the system like a thief, mani fests its pn sence if at all by the com monest symptoms and fastens itself in the constitution before the victim is aware of it. It is nearly as hereditary as consumption, quite as common anu full yas fatal. Entire families.inheriting it from their Ancestors, have died, and yet none knew or realized the mysteri ous power which was removing them. Instead of common symptoms it often shows none whatever, but brings death suddenly, from convulsions, apoplexy, or heart disease. As one who Las suf fered, and knows by bitter experience w hat he nvyi, 1 luiploio evwryone who rendu these words not to neglect the slightest symptsoiiiH of kidney difficulty. No one can afford to hii.iird such chances, I make the foregoing statements based upon facts w hich I run substantiate to the letter. The welfare of those who may possibly 1h Hutlerers such as I was, is hu ample inducement for me to take the step I have, and if I can successfully warn others from the dangerous path in which I once walked, 1 am willing to endure all professional and personal con leiiuenees.

Miss Wickert of Peru, Lu Salle county, had Isien suH'ering for the last five years from a large swelling in her left groin. Six different physicians in Pent and I.a Salle told her it was a rupture, und used trusses on it. The pain caused by it finally became so great that she could scarcely walk. . She then consulted Dr. Tool of Peoria, who immediately discov ered that it was a tumor of the ovary. As it was partly cvstie, the doctor (irt performed electrolysis by means of his galvanic battery on the cyst, and ufter it had shrunken and the growth become more movable he finished the operation by removing the w hole tumor. The tu mor measured 7- by 5 inches. The wound is entirely healed," and Miss Wickert left for Peru last week. J'eru Herald. Dr. Toel is now located in Portland.

Dr. Agnew of New York, w ho Is world fumed, told her that without an operation that would cost Iter $I,IHKI the ease was Incurable, aad that even with so operation I he cluiiueH were even only. This was practically the statement nf nil prominent physicians of the continent. The principal trouble was an abscess and distress In the region of I lie kidneys. There was a constant hemor rhage; we thought shi' would bleed Io death; her i lie-.t was as sore as a boll, and she was purl hilly piirnlyxrd, besides Imv tog cAiarrh of the bladder, Wo prepared for the Inevitable, when Dr. Price of Seal He told us that he knew of some remark able cures by Dr J. Kugeno Jordan with his new system of medicine. We, there fore, gave him a trial, and the result Is that my wife has completely recovered, It la evident that Dr. Jordan's nymcui sur passes In theory and practice the vast and the future. I nn. ('.
