In the afternoon, Robert h. Cowdry,
Of chicago, druggist, argued against
renewal OF the qulhine duty. He denied
the manufacturers claim that renewal
Of the duty would not increase the price
to the consumer. He read letters from
druggists stating that, after the fall Of
the price Of q0iuine, they reduced The
retail price 70 per cent. Answering
Garland, ne said that druggists profits on
quiniLe, so IN small quantities, was 800
per cent, and il the Wholesale price was
increased 10 per cent. by re-imposition
of the tax, the druggists profit would
still be about $50 per cent. George
Buck, Chicago druggist, explained that
these answers applied only TO quantities
of less than ten grains. Druggists sold
quinine at soc. per drschm-only about

Death Attends a DeIusiOn.

Michael Kane, saloon-keeper at
Twentieth and Cuthbert Streets, who
began to rave deliriously on Saturday
last about the bites that his Scotch ter
rier had inflicted on his cheek and finger
over three weeks ago, was taken to st.
Joseph's Hospital on Tuesday morning.
DR.. Watson, of No. POI North Twentieth
street, had decided that it was a case of
mania potu, resulting from an abrupt
cessation of drinking, and aggravated
by the thought that hydrophobia would
soon ensue. The belief took complete
possession of Kane's mind. and no per-
suasion or treatment could eradicate it.
For five days he had refused to drink
any kind of liquid, and it was only by a
subterfuge that he was induced to drink
some milk, and then when whisky was
suggested to him he swallowed good,
stiff dram eagerly, insisting that it be

Intemperance Among New York Women
Of Fashion.

1t is shocking but true that intemper.
ance among women of the better classes
is becoming more and more common.
OF almost innumerable cases that could
be related of instances where women of
good families, good education and re-
puted virtue, belonging to this city,
have become common drunkards, and
disgraced by this vile habit, the writer
will relate but one that has recently
come to her knowledge, and will vouch
for its truth in every particular. A
woman is to-day living in complete OBJ
security here, and alone, who, five years
ago. was the wife of a retired merchant
the mistress of a handsome homewith-
in twenty-five miles from the city, where
she, with her husband and one child, a
son, resided in the summer, and in the
winter lived either in some fine hotel or
went abroad-that has been completely
ruined by her confirmed habits of in
temperance. She has been in the five
years several times taken drunk to the
statlOn-houses, has been sent to the
prison on Ward Island and thorough
ly disgraced. She was very attractive
woman, and for years her husband en-
| dured her insane conduct caused by
liquor. He was proud, and tried to
hide his shame from the world, but
after several brutal personal attacks
upon himself and his aged father, he
was divorced from her Then relatives
on both sides interfered, the wife was
temperate, seemingly reformed, and he
remarked her, as he still, in spite of
everything, loved the mother of his
| boy. For while this person (she was
called LADY, was decent in her be-
havior, esteemed her many privileges
and enjoyed her wealth; but the old
! appetite returned with renewed vigor,
and she became more degraded than
ever. The husband has again been di-
vorced from her, but gives her enough
to live on, if she would so spend it. He
is still in middle life, but broken in
health and wrecked in happiness. Ey-
cry day he breads to see his former
wifes name in the police reports;
breads hearing of some horrid thing
she may have done. He wanders aim
lesSly through the world, with one hold
on life-his love for his son, idolizing
him, but fearing his inheritance of the
evil passion which has wrecked the two
lives of this true story and how many
thousands of others. Some people con
tend that it is no worse for a woman Il
he incorporate than for a man 10 be so

"ROck-a.bye Baby on the Tree Top

One day last summer, down in Texas,
there was fearful storm. 1t was a
wind storm. The wind was so strong
that it carried roofs of houses, and such
things, great way.
When it was over, some men set out
to follow the track of the storm. One
of them told this true story. They
thought they might find things that the
wind had dropped; and they might find
some one hurt and in need of help.
1t was near night, and quite dark in
the woods, when they heard cry.
They stopped to look about and listen.
They heard the cry again; and then
they saw some dark thing up in tree
at is pantherr' said one. "Stand
off! will shootrf
HNo; stopn' said another; "it is not
a panther. will climb up and see what
it is"
Up he went; and what do you think
he found, lodged in the tree?
A cradle with dear little baby in it!
The fearful wind had blown down the
baby's home. 1t had carried off baby,
cradle and all. The cradle was caught
by branch of the high tree.
Then the wind blew against it so
hard that the cradle was wedged in
crotch of the tree. 1t was so fast that
the men had to saw away the boughs
to get it down.
There was the dear baby, all safe and
sound, in its cradle nest. No one knew
where the baby's friends were, or where
its home had been. The men carried
it to their home, and a kind woman took
care of it.-Our Little ones.

How Fish-HoOks are Made.


Bows, how long do YOU suppose it
would take you to make a respectable
fish-hook? What do you suppose it
would cost you to'have a skilled work
man make YOU one rs good as you can
buy for n penny
But / saw a magical little. machine,
not long ago, bite off a little piece of
steel wire, chew it moment. and then
spit it out formed into a perfect hook.
1t would toss out these little hooks
every half second, the different ma
chimes making the different sizes.
There are eight steps in the making
of fish-hook by the machines | saw.
The boy who tended one of them
snatched specimens from the machine
as they were passing through. and
showed me how each stroke of the little
chisels and hammers added to the bit
of wire that went in, until it came out
finished hook and ready TO fish with,
though probably the most fastidious fish
wouldn't touch it because it hadn't yet
been polished.
The curious little machines would first
nip off bits of wire another stroke of
the machine, and the bit of wire had
little loop in one end The next half
second the wire had hack in it near
the other end Then came little
hammer-stroke which fattened out the
hacked end. Thena little chisel shaved
this flattened end into q point. And
last of all, it receives one crook, and
drops. perfectly formed hook, into the
little bucket, having been, only four
seconds before, nothing but an inch or
more of steel wire on reel.
There are two ways of finishing these
hooks. Either they are "japanned,"
which gives them the black finish which
is the most common one, or they are
! finished with that fine blue that is fire.
| quently put upon swords and cutlery.
1t is done by heating them in furnace
till they come TO a "cherry-red" as the
workmen call it, and then they are
poured into bucket of oil and left tc
cool.
After finishing, they are taken up to
the deft-fingered girls, who rapidly
count them by hooking them over
piece of coarse wire, and throwing out
at the same time the imperfect ones.
| Then they pack them in neat boxes,
and they are stacked up ready for mar.
! ket.
But | suppose this is only the tamest
part of the history of these murderous
little objects. How many of them do
you suppose will ever hook a fish? May
be one in hundred. Perhaps not one
in five hundred How many of them
will slumber, the sport of the fishes, i'm
beded in some old log at the bottom of
some pool orriver where they have stuck
and stuck, though tugged at and
twitched at by the luckless little boy
who hasn't caught anything yet, and
who hasn't another to fasten on in their
place! How many weary miles they
must 60, some of them, with hungry,
wet, tired little fellows (and perhaps
big fellows, too), innocent of any fish,
and in having no bites save from mos
quitoes. But here and there one shall
thrust point and barb into some fish who
with more appetite than discretion has
failed to see the trap set for him, and
out and up into the air has rushed, ''his
silver armor flashing useless in the sum-"
to make supper for the lucky fisher
