Opium consumption in this country
is increasing at an alarming rate. 1t is
estimated that 200 Americans at least
are victims to the baleful habit ct opium
smoking. while over 10000 Chinese in
the country pursue the same vicious
practice. The use of opium in other
forms, however. far exceeds this. The
importation of opiumin in 1SS0was II, 1856

one year.
According to calculations made by
the Medical Academy of Paris, there
are at the present time 1S9, 900 doctors
scattered over the world. OF these
there are $1,000 in the United States,
10000 in France, 80. 900 in Germany
and its colonies, 10000 in Italy, and
5000 in Spain. Putting aside pamphlets
and memoirs innumerable, it is esti-
mated that 120, 900 works have been
published on medical subjects. OF the
writers $500 are American, 1900
French, 300 German and Austrian, and
2,1O0 English.
The largest steam hammer in the
United States was recently placed in
position in the Black Diamond Steel
Works of Park Brothers & Co., at Pitts
burgh. The hammer weighs seventeen
tons, while the anvil block under it
weighs 160 tons. With full head of
steam it will strike a blow of ninety
tons, but, as this tremendous weight is
not always necessary in hammering. it
can be made to strike as light as de-
sired. 1t has thirty-eight-inch cylin-
der and nine-foot stroke. The ponder
GUS blows make the earth quake for
radius of nearly 200 yards.
There is at present in round num-
bers %, 900, 900 barrels of crude petro-
leum stored in the iron tanks in the oil
regions of Pennsylvania. 1t is an in
land lake of oil that may be described
as having reached its highest ebb, mas
much as indications now point unmis-
takably to falling Oft in the daily pro-
duction of the wells and consequent
decline in the amount tanked. Not the
least striking feature of the oil regions
are the clusters of these enormous iron
reservoirs, located on hill and valley,
and whose construction keeps actively
employed great workshops and an army,
of men in Pittsburgh, Titusville, Oil
City and elsewhere. The oil held by
the 1900 tanks dotting the oil regions

Free Trade.

BY free trade, the Democratic party
does not expect or intend the immedi-
ate abolition of customs duties. That
may become desirable in time, but pub
JIG opinion is not prepared for it. As
between radical and conservative
thought, the people of this country
have always been inclined to move
slowly and gradually. But tho Demo-
cratic party in all the States is agreed
that thorough revision OF the present
tariff is called for by every consideration
of justice, and by every motive of pub
lie interest.
A law is wanted which will benefit
all-both consumers and manufacturers
by admitting raw materials substan-
TALLY free OF duty and by making
corresponding reduction in the duties
on articles manufactured from these
raw materials.
Briefly, we want tariff which shall
no longer tax all the people in America
who work in brass or copper, and the
still larger number who use the prod
ucts of their work, to enlarge the gains
of few rich men who own the copper
mines of Michigan. We would admit
copper ore free of duty.
We. want tariff which shall not tax
every carpenter and builder in America,
and consequently every man who lives
in house for the benefit of the owners
of the forests which cover the hills OF
Maine, Vermont, Michigan and North
ern Wisconsin. We would admit tim
ber free of duty. We want a tariff
which shall not tax every man who has
a child's carriage, or plated spoon, or
a bicycle, for the benefit of the owners
of one or two nickel mines. We would
admit nickel free of duty.
We want tariff which shall not tax
every man who lives in a house, or
builds one, for the benefit of the mo-
nopo!ists who make American screws.
and realize enormous profits by the ex
clusion of foreign screws. We would
reduce the duty on screws.
We want a tariff which shall not tax
every man who rides on a railroad for
the benefit OF few men who monopo-
iize the manufacture of rails in this
country. We would reduce the duty on
steel rails.
We want tariff which will not tax
every man, whose child goes to school
and writes on slate, for the benefit of
few owners of the slate quarries of
Vermont. We would repeal the duty
on manufactured slate.
we want tarlH WHICH WILT HoI IaA

book, or writes a letter, for the bene-
fit of q few who monopoliZe the manu-

brought forth in iniquity. To revise it,

The Va'ue Of Mental Tension.

A certain degree of tension is indis-
pensable to the easy and healthful DIS
charge of mental functions. Like the
national instrument OF Scotland, the
mind drones wofully and will discourse
most dolorous music, unless an expan-
sive and resilient force within supplies
the basis of quickly responsive action.
No good, great or enduring work can
be safely accomplished by brain-force
without reserve of strength sufficient
to give buoyancy to the exercise, and,
If 1 may so say, rhythm to the opera
tions OF the mind. Working at high
pressure may be bad. but working at
low-pressure is incomparably worse.
As matter of experience, d sense OF
WEAKNESS commonly precedes collapse
from "overwork;" not mere bodily OF
nervous fatigue, but more or less con-
scious d;staste for the business in hand.
or perhaps for some other subject OF
thought or anxiety which obtrudes
itself. 1t is the offensive or irritating
burden that breaks the back Thor
oughly agreeable employment, how
ever engrossing, stimulates the recu-
perative faculty while it taxes the
strength, and the supply of nerve-force
seldom falls short of the demand. When
a feeling of disgust or WEAKNESS is not
experienced, this may be because the
compelling sense of duty has crushed
self out of thought. Nevertheless. if
the will is not pleasurably excited. if
it rules like martinez without affec-
ton or interest, there is no verue. and,
like a complex piece of machinery
working with friction and heated bear
ings, the mind wears itself away and a
breakdown ensues.--Dr. y. Mortimer
Granutlle, in Popular Science Monthly.
