How Women, to Ease Temporary Pain, Become Confirmed Opium Eaters. A A review of the statistics of a noted V‘ scientific medical cure for inebriety and the opium habit discloses the appalling fact that a large percentage of the patients applying for the treatment are women. Further inquiry shows that housekeep- ers and those employed in various do- mestic branches of labor constitute a great number of these unfortunate be- ings, whose lives are wrecked by contin- uous indulgence in narcotics. Those who have spent years in studying this subject agree that the victims in nearly every case have begun with drugs, merely to case a temporary pain, and have realized when it was too late that the habit had become established. A farmer’s wife . finds herself a sufferer from periodical - sick-headache; a society woman, on the I verge of nervous collapse; a brain-work- . ‘ er, unequal to the task she has under- ‘ taken. A small dose of morphine, a third of grain of quinine, a drink of alcohol in one of its many forms, even ' to water Florida water and perfumery, is a quick but dangerous stimulant. The next day. at the same hour. the same remedy is at hand, and before many weeks the victim is chained to the habit. This is particularly true of drugs, which have none of the social temptations of liquor drinking. There is no pleasure in taking drugs, and those who continue to do so confess, when cured, the horrible. indescribable agony, both mental and physical, of attempts to do without it. Three grains of morphine are generally considered a fatal dose, yet many women who apply for treatment are taking en- ough every day to kill fifty persons. ‘ l One of the most dtstressing phases of‘ \of the drug habit is its effect on the H'Au-t r. moral sense of the victim. Investigators are authority for the statement that womenâ€"and of course men as wellâ€"are absolutely untruthful, even regarding the most trivial affairs, when they have ac- quired the habit. In this particular, opium is much more to be dreaded. than 'liquor. The :intensity of the cravmg lS )â€" more horrible to witness, as was shown by a recent instance. A woman was arrested on some minor charge and lock- ed up. She sent for a friend to bring tomed dose ’of opium. Instead of removing the cork, which would have taken but an instant, she clutched the bottle tightly between he: d broken glass and pow der into her mouth ; then her calmness returned.

OUT OF HIS Minxâ€"About a year ago 1 last Christmas Mr. Thomas Forbare, who lives on a small farm nearRettie’s station, in the township of Somerville, had an attack of la grippe from the effects of which he did not fully recover, though he soon got able to go to work. A go while ago his friends noticed that his mind appeared to be affected, and from ’ ' advised him to consult a doctor; but he'always refused to do so, and «radually got worse until Tuesday last, when, while doing statute labor on the roads. he suddeniy shouted: ‘I’m going mad! I’m going mad!” and then. gnash- ed his teeth, he rushed at several of the men who were working with him. He hit Mr. David Chalmers severely on the arm, though fortunately, he did not draw blood, and then tried to bite other-3| but was soon overpowered; and his hrother-in-law, Mr. James Rettle, hast- drovetothe : ily hitching a horseroa buggy. . . ‘ !

The proportion was about 150 times greater across the line. â€"The May frosts injured the growing strawberry plants in many section, and later on the very dry weather added its retarding influence. The result is the price of the luscious fruit is away up as compared with other years. Unless plenty of rain comes on soon the present week will be about the last of the crop. â€"It is noticeable that While pastors all over the country are busily engaged making couples into ones, the old gentle- men of the senate are dividing thein Into twos again. This June is prolific in weddings, and is also doing fairly well 1n the way of divorces. 11,- â€"A circular has been sent out y the Attorney-General’s Department to the various sheriffs of the province to be posted up in the corridors of the court houses. reciting the penalties imposed by the statue upon persons convicted of tam- pering with jurors, and upon jurors accepting bribes. The detectives of the department have also been detailed to investigate several alleged cases of tam- pering with jurors in the northerly and western sections of Ontario. A determin- ed efl'ort will be made by the committal of a few of the guilty parties to gaol to put down this means of thwarting justice, which has grown to considerable proport- ions. â€"A young man named Samuel Pickens was drowned Friday evening last at: Marble Rapids, Burnt River, about fifteen miles north of Kinmount. It appears he lost his revev in the water during the day. and in the evening while on a. log in search of this he fell in, and being unable to swim was drowned. His body was recovered a. few hours afterwards. ~When the mayor of Uxbridge went to take his seat at the council on Tuesday night he found a. large piece of ice at his feet in front of the magisrerial chair.

A storm was passing over the village about 6.30 that evening, with some rain but very little lightning. when a roar and a blind- ing flash startled half the women almost out of their boots, and upon looking up to see what was struck St. Andrew’s church was seen to be lacking shingles for its spire. The shingles and outer wood work were stripped completely off as far as the brick work, leaving thel stringers perfectly bare. One of the brick pillars was shattered and all the inside electric light wires were badly twisted. Some of the church committee are in favor of removing the steeple altogether or shortening _it in some way 'ID VAAIU nu -__ the same ransacking. The moss of the ‘ incandescent lights around town were : burnt out at the fuse at the same time ‘ and evidentlv the presence of electric wires in the church had something to do with preventing fire and other damage. â€"-Shoddy cloth pedlars are swindling ‘ the farmers in Ontario County. â€"â€"It would nevor strike you that the value of fish taken by professional fisher- men from Lakes Couchichine: and Simcoe last year totalled $7.340. Yet this is the fact. There were 15,000 pounds of trout, 22,000 pounds of sturgeon, 38,000 pounds of bass, 6,000 pounds of pickers], 3,500 pounds of pike, and 18,000 pounds of “coarse fish” taken. During the year there were 500,000 white fish fry and 200.000 salmon trout fry deposited at ()rillis and Barrie in equal quantities. Half these quantities were put in Bass Farmers who lack barn space are com- pelled to stack or rick a portion of their hay crop.
