CHOCOLATE.
The Growth OF the Trade In This Article
In the United States.

The Growth OF the Trade In This Article
In the United States.
SAID a well-known manufacturer to a
reporter: The consumption of choco-
late in the United States has had a won
derful growth. In 1873 we manufac-
tured into chocolate goods $4,000 bags
of raw cocoa; last year we used 81. OOG
bags. an increase of $4,000 bags in five
years. The next five years will see
still greater rate of increase. When
Humboldt discovered the use of the
cocoa plant in his travels. he little
dreamed of the immense business that
was to grow out of the connection Of
his first cup of chocolate. 1t is to-day
fairly in the way of becoming one Of
the principal articles of food through
out the world, and tends eventually to
supplant tea and coffee as beverage.
As fiavoring it already stands next to
vanilla. which heads the list, and it is
used in all branches of cookery, pastry
and creams, and for baking purposes
generally. Fifteen years ago l went
on the road to sell in q small way
CuOCOAdtc ROOuS VI NY OWu mduul6c-
ture, and / was laughed at for my
pains. At that time the consumption
was limited in this country to the few
large cities in which the foreign ele-
ment predominated. The article was
elsewhere comparatively unknown.
THE taste for chocolate is an &C
quired one. and the public had to be
educated to the love for it, ..and like
tobacco and beer it is at first distasteful
and even nauseating. but also like them
when once the taste is formed it is not
easily surfeited. It probably tires the
taste less than any other CONNECTION.
and this accounts for its presence in
nearly all the candy that is sold to-day.
Chocolate is one of the most healthful
foods known, and in its pure state may
be used to ar unlimited extent without
harmful effects. In Europe it has taken
nearly half q century of unremitting
labor on the part of manufacturers to
fairly establish the public taste for
chocolate, but Americans take to il
rapidly. and In fifteen years have
learned to love it and look upon il
almost as . necessary of life. The va
rieties of chocolote preparations are
almost legion. for it enters into the
manufacture of both food and drink"

It Should Re Generally Known

that the multitude of diseases of q scrof1-

condition of the liver. The blood becomes
impure because the liver docs not act prop

and kindred affections, or settling upon tho

CRAZED BY COCAINE,
Deplorable Condition to Which It's Excessive
Use Reduced a Chicago Family.

CHICAGO, Nov. 29.-Dr. Charles D. Bradley. a
physician of this city, was taken to the Wash
ingtonian Home, yesterday. a mental and physi-
cal wreck, wrought by the immoderats use of
cocaine. Not only the patient himself, but his
entire family. consisting of a wife and FIVE chill
dren, have been practically ruined by his Excess
ses. On Friday the patient. accompanied by some
friends, was taken before Judge Prendergast.
The insane cases proper had been disposed of,
and the room was almost clear of the usual
crowd OF curious spectators. There was no
jury, and the affair was conducted as quietly as
possible. 1t was shown that DR.. Bradley, quite
a prominent physician, had been addicte d
to the use of cocaine to such
an extent as to render him prac-
tically insane. The story was told
that the Doctor had, under its influence, per-
formed experiments upon his family that have
made them physical wrecks. He injected some
HORTICULTURAL into his OWE arm, and then, with a
red-hot iron, burned it out without finching.
Some more of the drug he injected into the
wrist of his three-yearold child, and with his
knife cut it out. He used the drug promiscu-
ously in his family, and was such a slave to it
that in a little time his practice fell
away, and his family were reduced to want. He
became a fanatic on the subject, a wild dreamer.
he mortgaged all he possessed, even his horse
and buggy. to pursue his favorite study. His
wife an invalid, and his children ruined in
health, their condition was heartrending in the
extreme.
The scene in the courtroom
was dramatic. The poor victim seemed
to realize his situation, and suddenly
raising his voice to a high pitch, and becoming
highly excited, called on God to help convince
the judge and the physicians present that his
theory was right. DR.. Wadsworth testified that
he believed the man insane from the use of
cocaine and morphine, and DR.. r. d. Brown, who
| attended him, corroborated DR.. W~adsworth, and
thought DR.. Bradley should be confined in an in
| s%titution; that he believed him a hopeless case
of insanity, but as an experiment suggested that
he be sent to the Washington Home, where his
case can be closely watched. 1t was SO ordered.
He commenced the habit aboutlast May, and it
had grown until it's elimination in the ruin of
seven people. Three of the children were sent to
st. Vincent Hospital. and his wife and the re-
sidered doubtful whether any of them will
recover their normal condition.

clearly shows the difference between calm
judgment and mere impulse. Yielding to
impulse, he at first determined to make the
journey; yielding to wise counsel and sound
judgment, he will remain at Washington.

II has been said that the mugwump is a
being who possesses no sense Of humor; but
that this is an untrue characterization is
proved by the suggestion from a mugwump-

offer the presidency of that body to their
political opponents. No man not saturated
with the very essence of wit could perpetrate
such a joke as this.

wards discovered that it was not the same
that had been used in the court before. When
sworn and examined, the deputy could not
explain the disappearance of the document
which could not be found. He said it was
kept in the vault of the county clerks Office,
which he locked and unlocked each day,
evening and morning. Others had access to
the vault, and he could not say what had be-
come of the abstract. 1t needs no argument

nal has been committed to cover criminality
