The Opium Habit.
Popular Science Monthly 1

Popular Science Monthly.
 A pathetic story has lately come to my knowledge of young man, an under graduate in an eastern college, who had become a victim of the hypodermic use of morphia. He went with his father, who was engaged in the numbering inter- hoping that. during stay of months with the woodchoppers he would be able to 6ght out he,battle of gradual abandon meat successfully Through strange fatality, when the party had just arrived at their camping place, and were trans- porting their goods across stream, the case of morphia was broken by an ap- parent accident and its contents scattered into the water. Elone but the haggard young man could, at the moment, com prehend the appalling magnitude of the calamity-there, as he was 200 miles from the nearest settlement He sur- vived the terrible ordeal, but no words could express, he has said, the tortures and agony through which he passed during the succeeding weeks. He was closely watched, else, at times, he woul have drowned himself or have beaten his brains out upon the rocks. Months atterward he came back to the world skeleton, worn and haggard, from his terrible contest. It was an experience to which he could never afterward refer without the most painful emotions. Not the least significant point in this veritable account is the fact that the young man always believed that his father had pur posely brought about the catastrophe for the sake ot bringing matters to a speedy end Has the usual treatment of the disease by physicians at this day any thing to offer that is much better than this mans summary method2

The Fish in Jones' Net.
Detroit Free Press.l


 The other night, after the thunder shower, Jones dropped in on a neishbor and found about dozen people assem- bled.
 "Well, well, you look cheerful after such a close call," growled Jones as he removed his hat.
 "What close call ?"
 "Why, lightning struck the barn in the alley not hundred feet away" "Oh, dearl said one of the women, " but knew it all the time. One of my arms has been numb ever since." "And it affected my foot" said an. other.
 And 1t set my heart to palpitating. {" "And my elbow has felt queer eve, since"
 Every one in the room remembered to have been shocked. and every one was thankful over the narrow escape. By and by boy, who had been think ing deeply, gushed out:
 Why, there is no barn in the alley ? Amidst the deepest silence everybody remembered this fact, and the boy clinched it with:
 "And how could there be, when there is no alley :"
 Jones had lied, but so had all the others.
