Pressure of the Sea.

1t is often asked, when an ocean-go-
ing vessel has been lost at sea, and it is
supposed that she has foundered, why
none of her timbers rise to the surface
again and float, as submerged wood
will nearer shore. The explanation is
that il the vessel has been sunk in deep
water the pressure To which IL is sub
jected will be so great that certain
quantity of water will be forced into the
pores OF the wood, and thus render 1t so
heavy that even when detached from
the ship piece of the timber could not
float. 1t Is because OF the constantly
and rapidly-increasing pressure, too.
that a diver can not descend to any very
great distance below the surface. e.-Chi-

OPIUM CONSUMERS.

"A Druggist Discusses the Past and Present
State of His business.
"By whom is opium mainly bought"
by people of all classes. You would
be greatly surprised if should show
list of my customers who are in the
habit of purchasing this drug. Idonot
mean those for whom it is prescribed by
physicians, but those who use it rs regu-
larly at they would tobacco. These
slaves of the OPIUM habit comprise law
yers, artists, preachers, merchants and
all kinds of mechanics, tradeSmcn and
lnborcrs Women as well as men are
slaves to the opium iiend. A certain
lawyer, who was connected with fa-
nous trial in neighboring town, has
been known to consume large quantities
of the drug for many years. He made
Il long argument near the close OF the
trial which was continued seven hours.
Many people wondered how he man
aged to keep up for such Il length OF
time. Had they noticed that at the end
of each hour he swallowed an opium
pill they would have known the secret
of his wonderful endurance. | think
physicians are much to blame for people
acquiring the opium habit.
'How sop'
"Because they are so willing to pre-
scribe it to patients who could get
along without it. An invalid is sleep
less or nervous, and opium is given in
small doses. BY and by larger doses
are required under similar circum-
stances, and finally the patient finds
that it is almost impossible to get along
without the drug. The opium habit is
an expensive one. 1t has made wealthy
people poor. In this respect it is as
great an enemy to the human race as
strong drink. There have been great
changes in the drug business during the
past twenty-five years, A quarter of a
century ago the physicians gave their
patients great deal of calomel, now
very little of this drug is prescribed.
Twenty-Five years ago the homeopathic
school of medicine was ridiculcd by n

tions of roots and herbs prepared ac-

PRIVATE LETTERS.
What Poet whittier Considers II Shameful
Breach OF Trust.

"a
The poet Whittier, now in his seventy
ninth year, has been'"putting his house
in order with the prudence befitting
that advanced age, and in doing so has
burned several thousand letters indis-
criminately, the accumulated corre-
spondence of half a century. His ex-
planation of this general bonfire is that
many of them were confidential, and
that he had not time or strength to
assort the mass, and preferred that all
should perish rather than take respon-
sibility for leaving them so that by mis-
chance an improper publicity ever
should be given TO any of the number
On this subject he says: "I have al
ways regarded private and coniiden-
tial letter as sacred, and its publicity in
any shape shameful breach OF trust,

correspondents may be as carefully dis
