THE CALLEYS.
How Prisoners Were Formerly Tortured Ina
the French Galleys.

How Prisoners Were Formerly Tortured Ina
the French GaIIeys.
We suppose the "laatdator tempo7is
acti'' will never entirely disappear.
There will always be found those who
will maintain that the former days were
better than the present, and that the
affairs of this world do not move so
smoothly as in old times.
Undoubtedly there may be reason in
such assertions, as in some instances
our days show a degeneration from
those of our forefatherS; the belief in
the oyerruling providence and good
ness of God, the respect Of youth to-
ward old age, the sentiment of ODE
dience 10 tue commands of law, we fear
have lost somewhat of their influence
over the actual generation.
But without stopping to enumerate
the many points in which our own age
has made decided advance over those
that have preceded it, let us merely re-
fleet on the position Of prisoners and
sailors of the present day as compared
with those when men were condemned
and not always for crimes committed
to the living death of the galleys:
Baras de Ia Peuve, who served forty
years as an officer in O. galley, thus
writes in 1918 of them:
''IhoSe who enter a galley for the
first time are surprised to see so many
souls On board. There are, in fact, in
Europe an intinity of villages which
do not contain SO many inhabitants.
But that which cause still more aston
ishment is to find SO many men in SO
small Il space. 1t is true that the
greater part have not the liberty to lie
down at full length. Seven men are
put on each bench; that is, in space
of about four feet wide by ten in length.
At the PROV are to be seen even thirty
sa lors, who have no other lodging
place than the plans DIES rambades,
which. are two spaces OF two feet in
length by eighteen wide. From stern
to PROV one can see moth no but heads.
The captain and officers are hardly
any better lodged, their only refuge is
the poop, VIII ch, considering, its size,
one IS tempted to compare with the
tubof DIogenes. When the pitiless wind
from Lydia, sweeping across the Ro-
man beaches, surprised the galleys on
the sea; when the mpetuouS Aquilon
assailed them, or the Gulf of LYONS de-
lyered them to the humid wind of
Syria, the ga!leys must have been an
image Of hell itself The mournful Ia
mentations and frightful CT es of the
crew, the horrible howlings of the
changing. the groaning of the vessel S
frame, mingled with the no Sc of chains
and the roaring of the tempest must
have produced sentiment of
terror in the most intrepid heart.
Rain, hail, lightning, the hab tual
accompanments of these violent

THE WITCHING WEED.
Something About the History of Chewing
and Smoking.

Something About the History of Chewing
and Smoking.
Cigars were not known until about
1915. Previous to that time pipes were
used exclusively.
Chewing had been in vogue to a linn
tied extent for some time, while snuff
ing dates back almost as far as smok-
ing.
The first package sent to Catherine
de Medici was in fine powder. She
found that smelling 1t in the box af-
fected her similarly to smoking, which
led her to fill one of her smelling bot
ties with the dust. Her courtiers
adopted the habit of shutting small por-
tons of it up the nostrils, and as the
precious stuff became more plentiful
the snuffing habit became more gen
eral, until at last man OF woman was
not considered as in proper form unless
they snutfed.
The custom became so common in
England that a snuf-box was no longer
a sign of rank. Then it was the law
prohibiting the culture of the plant,
except for medicine, was passed. About
the same time heavy tariff was placed
on the imported article, thereby prac-
tcally placing it beyond the reach of
the common herd and giving royalty a
complete monopoly.
Since it first began to be used as a
luxury there have been conflicting opin-
ions regard to it's effects. The Ro-
m sh Church once forbade it's use, and
the Church of England acclaimed
against it.
The Wesleys opposed it hotly, and at
one time it was considered so unclean
as to unfit men for membership in the
Methodist Church.
Baptist and Presbyterian ministers
preached against it, and societies were
organized to oppose the spread of the
habit, but all to no purpose. Parents
sowned and disinherited their chill
dren because they used it, and hus-
bands divorced their wives on account
of their having contracted the habit of
smoking.
1t is singular that when women get
into the habit of smoking a pipe they
prefer a strong one.
There are few men who have nerve
enough to smoke a pipe such as a wom-
an likes when she has become a con-
firmed smoker. When they first begin
putting cigars they prefer them very
mild, but it is not long until they want
them black and strong and lots of
them. Pittsburgh Dispatch.
